It's my first week of Halloween movies and I'm already joyous. By pure coincidence, I watched all the movies beginning with "The" in a row. Today we're going back in time, to a dark forest in Japan, before stopping off in a doomed Korean fishing village. It's going to be a good time. Well, mostly.
The Final Girls (rentable
on Amazon, iTunes, and Youtube for 2.99)
Imagine if
Hot Tub Time Machine and
Cabin in the Woods
collided. The result is a punchy, funny Horror Comedy that has more heart than
either of those two movies. It’s an unexpected delight that I’m still mulling over.
