I watched a lot of documentaries about horror movies to not disturb my housemates. It was a satisfying experiment, I think. I might try it again next year. I was most pleased by Heroes of Horror which was on Peter Lorre and Vincent Price. I plan to get the first volume in the series. I also enjoyed Fantastic Flesh which was on film makeup in various movies. Dark Dreamers was poorly constructed and dull.
The spooky movies I watched were Trick r Treat, Kakurenbo, and Carnival of Souls. Kakurenbo looked beautiful but the story was too thin for me. I could only watch Trick r Treat in short bursts and while I liked it, I want to watch it again in one piece next time. Carnival was surprisingly entertaining though it fell apart at the very end. Beautiful location shot of carnival/spa and lovely black and white photography.
I’m watching a number of TV series: No. 1 Ladies’ Detective Agency is pure pleasure. Cadfael was not to my taste. Castle is enjoyable fluff. I enjoyed MST3K’s version of Touch of Satan but Zombie Nightmare was less enjoyable.
Laura’s Star and Kakurenbo were well-animated. Laura’s Star was especially beautiful, and worth seeing for the visuals alone. Both movies had rather thin stories.
Finally saw Trip to the Moon in its entirety.
