Guts and Gory: February 2010
http://goofyhorror.blogspot.com/2010_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 24, 2010. Suspension of Disbelief and Mock-Doc Horror. I talked about how cheesy-looking gore can trigger a gut reaction of revulsion, but maybe sometimes the audience needs to do some work to appreciate a scary movie. A friend of mine told me that she went to see. With a few friends and laughed out loud for the duration of the film. When I watched it in my apartment I nearly shit my pants. Am I really that much of a weenie? I watched the movie. That way, but little else. Suspension o...

Guts and Gory: Murder Party
http://goofyhorror.blogspot.com/2010/04/murder-party.html
Friday, April 23, 2010. So I've taken a long hiatus from blogging. I've been devoting a lot of time to pet projects. For example - this ant that I've MSpainted to look like a pirate:. I also have a meal worm dressed like a clown and chiggers dressed as mobsters. But onto the real meat of this post. Is difficult for me to review because it's genuinely a good movie. That's not my forte. It's well written, sporting some immersive dialogue, its well shot, its got a. He doesn't think twice about any obvious s...

Guts and Gory: Behind the Mask - The Rise of Leslie Vernon
http://goofyhorror.blogspot.com/2010/03/behind-mask-rise-of-leslie-vernon.html
Thursday, March 4, 2010. Behind the Mask - The Rise of Leslie Vernon. Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon. Is an outstanding tribute and dissection of the Golden Age Slasher; films such as. A Nightmare on Elm Street. Which over the past thirty years gave us some of the most iconic killers in horror history. This film, however, is far more light-hearted and humorous in nature, lovingly parodying the genre as it picks it apart. 8220;You have no idea how much cardio I have to do. 8220;Why so much?

Guts and Gory: Slime City
http://goofyhorror.blogspot.com/2010/03/slime-city.html
Tuesday, March 16, 2010. It’s full of neat animation ideas and kooky/adorable monsters that are at the very least tangentially related to this blog. The make-up and effects are top-notch. To reiterate a point I keep making: you can argue that the style of this era’s gore movie make-up doesn’t look realistic, but then you’d be missing the point. Ultra-real CG gore ends up looking more sterile, less stylized and certainly less obscene, so what’s the point? The other aspect of Slime City. Hey this is great!

Guts and Gory: A Tale of Two Sisters

Tuesday, February 23, 2010. A Tale of Two Sisters. You can’t ignore horror from the East. 8220;J-horror” and “K-horror” have changed the landscape of horror movies in the past ten years; films like Ringu. Flaunted an intensely creepy atmosphere that more recent Hollywood horror attempted to exploit. With the slew of Asian films coming out within a small frame of time, it’s easy for one that’s truly worth watching to slip under the radar. A Tale of Two Sisters. 8221; though not much is adapted.

Wednesday, March 24, 2010. Birdemic: Shock and Terror. So I admittedly didn’t want to write about this one, in fact I said I never would – but I’m a pushover and people complained to me so I’m going for it. Birdemic: Shock and Terror. Is a “cautionary romantic thriller” that was written, directed and produced by misogynist creep and child exploiter James Nguyen (pronounced something like. Looks like someone pirated a copy of KidPix. The one compliment I can give Birdemic. So if you’re an unbalanced...

Guts and Gory: May 2010
http://goofyhorror.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Wednesday, May 5, 2010. Thanks to the wonders of The Internet. Long-since-forgotten movies have become the revered icons they've always deserved to be. Below are some short clips from some of my favorite scenes of cheesy old flicks, recently revitalized by YouTube. First up is Troll 2. Which is an inexplicable title, as the movie contains no trolls. This movie is a diamond in the rough of bad movies, and has recently spawned a documentary: " Best Worst Movie. Finally, there's Enter the Ninja.
