I read Roger Ebert's review for Motel Hell when I was probably 11 or 12, in one of his movie review books I found in my Grandma's house, I never saw the movie, but I remember that review, and the plot of the film.

Here it is for anyone interested

Motel Hell movie review & film summary (1980) | Roger Ebert
Ebert hit the nail on the head when he described Motel Hell as "it's to The Texas Chainsaw Massacre as Airplane! is to Airport".

So who else was not pleased with The Haunting of Bly Manor?

This one was a chore to get through.

The restrained gothic British horror vibe is not something I'm that big a fan of as a rule anyway but even by that metric this series was slow as hell.
Hannah's story was so disappointing...they were setting it up like she was going to have a big role in saving the day and instead she just got Halloran'd.
Carla Gugino was doing the absolute shyttiest British accent I have ever heard and it was distracting.
The ghost angle was overly convoluted and never really delivered.

Here's hoping Mike Flanagan course corrects for the third season if there is one.

caught this one on the treadmill this morning

we converted one of the bedrooms to a workout room - and have projector mounted to the ceiling
Its like walking on a treadmill in a movie theater

the bridge curse
from taiwan - typical asian haunted location movie -a few jump scares, decent twist at the end.

if you like asian horror, it does absolutly nothing to push the envelope , but is a decent film.

Unfortunately I feel the same as you. It was disappointing and extremely slow, which I enjoy build ups and a sense of ambience, but the reward has to be worth it. Great cast, but story was underwhelming in its delivery

Ok this movie is the dumbest shyt you probably will ever watch . Like ridiculously stupid. A tire going around making people’s heads explode lol. But if you high or drunk and want some humor it might be worth your while for cheap laughs. The ridiculousness of it makes it entertaining

I agree that a slow burn can be enjoyable if the pay off delivers but everything about this series was so tepid including the pay off.
I was really hyped for it too but it was just a disappointment.

Rubber is definitely one of the stupidest movies ever made.
