Zombie Cupcake: November 2010
http://zombiecupcake.blogspot.com/2010_11_01_archive.html
Sunday, November 07, 2010. Final Girl Film Club. Time It's been way too long since I got involved in this. After a promising first sequence involving a showering girl being stalked all POV. Style, this falls into the old trap of taking too damn long to get going. The Funhouse. Is 96min, thirty of which are taken up with the main characters simply wandering around the carnival. It's scene setting, sure, but it's to the extent of being bor. Favourite thing about the film was these moments:. Subscribe to: P...

Zombie Cupcake: April 2012
http://zombiecupcake.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 13, 2012. I'm drawing a line in the fucking sand here. It's Friday the 13th today! I saw a horror movie at the cinema! Simple things, etc etc. While a review (the sort where I don't want to tell you anything if I can help it, because it's so much better going in blind) or. at least something with a bit of meat to it tries to take shape in my brain, I just wanted to check in with you guys and say that I saw The Cabin In The Woods. Tonight and thoroughly enjoyed it. Links to this post. With a...

Zombie Cupcake: April 2013
http://zombiecupcake.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 09, 2013. And pushing the boat metaphor a little too hard, perhaps. Oh Final Girl, not only were you inspiration behind my starting this blog, but you too have been going through a horror dry spell lately! Http:/ finalgirl.blogspot.co.uk/2013/03/real-talk.html. And boy do I mean it! Believe me, I haven't been, you know, watching a shit ton of horror and not telling you about it; I've probably seen.mmm, four scary movies? Since I last posted here. (One of them was Mama and you know what?

Zombie Cupcake: Deadgirl (2008).
http://zombiecupcake.blogspot.com/2009/08/deadgirl-2008.html
Sunday, August 23, 2009. Is one of the few films that has made me check myself whilst watching. Asking what exactly I am doing viewing this stuff. It's not even graphic, but it doesn't have to be. When the whole plot of a movie is centred around the repeated rape and abuse of a woman - okay, so it's a "monstrous" woman, a "zombie" woman - even I, whose discomfort threshold is pretty damn high, sits back and wonders what she is doing participating in this. She's just a dead girl, man. That's all". Things ...

Zombie Cupcake: July 2013
http://zombiecupcake.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Tuesday, July 30, 2013. On this day in 1999. The Blair Witch Project. Was released in the USA. It terrified me when I went to see it (late October release in the UK), I thought I was going to vomit and have a heart attack at the same time. This film is still one that springs to mind when I'm asked to name scary films. When people find out you're a horror blogger, that's one of the first questions they ask. I know. I know a lot of people think Blair Witch. Links to this post. Monday, July 29, 2013. Of the...

Zombie Cupcake: October 2011
http://zombiecupcake.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, October 04, 2011. The Last Exorcism (2010). I normally eat up found footage horror. Even when others whine that it's just another variation on the The Blair Witch Project. Putting aside for the moment that The Last Broadcast. Went there a year before the Witch did) I'm the one who still gets terrified by this stuff, because it seems so much more real. The problems I found with The Last Exorcism. Could see the stain of Blair Witch all over this one - at the very end especially. Could have done wi...

Zombie Cupcake: March 2014
http://zombiecupcake.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 31, 2014. They Came Back / The Returned / Les Revenants (2004). As someone who has relatively recently lost a loved one, the idea of this film resonated deeply with me. The plot (and that of the TV show adaptation, which I'm still in two minds about watching) deals with a well trodden genre idea: the dead coming back to life. But here, it's not in a conventionally horrific way. This is all very civilised - which makes it that much more creepy, if you ask me. Would you want that person retur...

Zombie Cupcake: Last House On The Left (2009).
http://zombiecupcake.blogspot.com/2009/11/last-house-on-left-2009.html
Wednesday, November 25, 2009. Last House On The Left (2009). This review has a cap from one of the more unsavoury scenes of the film. Just thought I had better warn ya-. First, let's get the frivolity out of the way. People I recognised in this version of The Last House On The Left. And where I found out they were from:. Nic Cage's wife in Con Air. The son in Unbreakable. Michael Cera's love interest in Superbad. Okay now that's done, we can get serious. The director this time around is Dennis Iliadis.

Zombie Cupcake: March 2012
http://zombiecupcake.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 19, 2012. Pieces / Mil gritos tiene la noche (1982). I've just traded up my LOVEFiLM subscription so that I have unlimited streaming, rather than disc rentals. It's only until I wrote that sentence just now that I feel a little sad about it! I am giving up properly renting films, probably for good. It's another step into "the future" but also another reason to be nostalgic. Is the film that may very well be my last ever disc-in-the-post rented movie, then. A good one to go out on! There's a...
