Yeah this one is a classic cheeser but I like it, it’s got charm (Gary Busey). I love werewolf movies too what few there are worthwhile so I appreciate the recent postings. You were mentioning some of my favorites with AWIL and ginger snaps.. if you haven’t seen dog soldiers yet that is an all-timerSilver Bullet (1985) - IMDb
Tried to continue my recent run on Werewolf films with the 1985 adaptation of a Stephen King book (one I didn't read though) Silver Bullet. I think my error is that I'm coming off of some absolute piff like Ginger Snaps and American Werewolf in London; so this one didn't keep my interest. It felt solid across the board from performances to bits of build-up to kills, but it just didn't have any extra gear comparable to the top notch wolf movies or even modern day second tier wolf flicks like Howl It's quintessentially 80's with Gary Busey and Corey Haim. It also carries most of the King tropes; small town, coming of age, kids seeing what adults overlook...all that fun with Gary Busey being Gary Busey while a werewolf catches bodies.
It's just that the stand out stuff wasn't the "scary" stuff so much as it was the 80's charm and treating Stephen King like an auteur all his own. The scares and effects haven't aged as well as I'd have liked. So this one gets a
If you want to do run through good wolf horror, I wouldn't say to stay away. But keep this early on the list because while it hits the beats decently and has some added charm; it's not gonna live up to the better wolf stuff.
I like the cast so I'll keep my fingers crossed that it will be good.
I forgot all about candyman
Candyman (Sept. 25)
This horror remake directed by Nia DaCosta and written by Jordan Peele has been pushed to September.
Original release date: June 12, 2020
Godzilla vs Kong (May 21, 2021)
The monster-mashing sequel had played around with its release date before the pandemic even happened, and in June Warner Bros. moved it again to avoid a pileup of new releases in November.
Original release date: Nov. 20, 2020
(I’m not pleased)
we would be discussing this had it not been for current circumstances and now I have to wait until next summer for Godzilla

With the way all these states opening are seeing coronavirus cases rising I doubt anything in 2020 is going to come out.THEY fukkING PUSHED GODZILLA BACK A DAMN YEAR
Oh and let's not forget, Halloween Kills is basically in "fingers crossed" mode right now
And The Conjuring 3 is getting pushed back. I'm expecting it. I'll be shocked if it isn't. Legitimately shocked
Wait... what?? I’ve been waiting on this since last year.
I see that now. It’s just weird and disconcerting not having new horror content on deck or upcoming big movie releases to check for that I’ve been anticipating. Think I will start reading books that were adapted into horror movies that I’ve watched throughout the years to fill the void. There’s only so many straight to vid or originals that are actually holding my interest lately.
It’s been a lot going on
I know -understandable. that’s why I need my horror movies escapismIt’s been a lot going on
