Salem Horror Fest 2024 Week 1, Day 4: Welcome Week: A College Horror Anthology (2024)

The last day of the Salem Horror Fest's first weekend had two movies. The second one is one that I really want to talk about... but I can't, because not only was it a secret screening, they also told us not to tell anyone that it was shown at the festival because they didn't want to put a potential distribution deal into jeopardy. This unfortunately leaves me with the first movie I saw that day...

Popcorn Frights Wicked Weekend 2020, Day 3: Spare Parts (2020), For the Sake of Vicious (2020), Bad Candy (2020), Babysitter Must Die (2020), Cyst (2020)

Well, writing this up took a lot longer than my lazy ass expected.

Anyway, Day 3 of the Wicked Weekend opened with two Canadian films, one a grindhouse action flick and the other a home invasion horror movie, then returned to America with a pair of holiday horror flicks and a gross-out horror-comedy.

First up...

Review Double Feature: Scare Package (2019) and The Mortuary Collection (2019)

Leave it to Popcorn Frights to mine some good out of the pandemic by bringing back the drive-in double feature. They screened both of these anthology horror movies at a pop-up drive-in theater in Fort Lauderdale's hipster neighborhood, and the experience, at least, was worth it.

But how were the movies themselves?

Popcorn Frights, Night 3: Boogeyman Pop (2018) and Framed (2018)

For the third night of Popcorn Frights, I unfortunately had to miss the first two movies shown due to prior commitments, but I was still able to make it to the Savor Cinema to catch the final two movies of the night. Both of them... were actually pretty good!

First, we have a microbudgeted punk-rock indie...
