The name Session 9 refers to 9 tape recorded sessions of Mary Hobbes, a patient at the abandoned Danvers State Hospital in Danvers, Massachusetts, who suffered from dissociative identity disorder, or multiple personalities.
I’ve always been a huge fan of Franka Potente, her and Fairuza Balk are my two favorite female actresses. I was browsing available movies to watch and possibly review, and I just by chance came across Creep, this wonderful gem of a movie starring Franka, which is definitely one of the better ones I’ve…
‘The Cabinet Of Dr. Caligari’ was a very interesting and attention keeping film. I found myself just staring at the actors as well as the very well done German Expressionist set design and painting; some of the scenes were simply amazing to look at.
The 1997 film The Keep directed by Michael Mann, based on the novel of the same name by F. Paul Wilson, has always been a memorable movie for me. Everything from the movie poster, the Romanian countryside and village, to the visuals within the keep itself has stuck with me for years. Add in such…
It is not unlike me to watch a subtitled foreign film. In fact, one of my favorite films ever is Run Lola Run, a German film subtitled in English (the English dub version is just horrible and ruins the movie, skip if you can) starring Franka Potente.
It’s not often you get to see a young Jack Nicholson alongside one of the greats of horror, Boris Karloff. Add to the mix being directed by Roger Corman (at least partially) and if you still have not seen this movie you are truly missing out. Jack’s signature brow line and voice combined with…
I had a lot of fun Watching 1973′s Horror Express for the first time. Not only does it take place on a train, of which steam engine locomotives are a fascination of mine, but with such wonderful performances by Christopher Lee and especially Telly Savalas, how can you go wrong? Add in…
When presented with the opportunity to review this film, just seeing the name Lance Henriksen on the cast list was enough for me to agree. Ed Harley (Pumpkinhead) and Bishop (Aliens) are my favorite roles of his, and I had just seen his performance of Dr. Lecorpus…
I owned ‘Carnival of Souls’on DVD almost a full year before I actually sat down to watch it, but had I known what I was getting I never would have waited so long. It is one movie that is definitely a cult film, you will either be a rabid fan of it or fail to see just what the hype is…
‘Horror Hotel’ (1960) was a refreshing change of pace from the recent horror films I’ve seen of late. The black and white photography fits the colonial timeframe of the picture perfectly, and it does a great job giving you a sense of isolation, maybe even that you are lost in time.
