And finally -- finally -- I get this last batch of Popcorn Frights reviews out. Consider this my New Year's resolution. The last day of Popcorn Frights' Wicked Weekend went international with trips to the Netherlands, France, and Iceland, along with one last movie I missed on the third night.

We start with...

Held (2020)

Not rated

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...

Spare Parts (2020)

Popcorn Frights Wicked Weekend 2020, Day 2: The Oak Room (2020), Benny Loves You (2019), A Ghost Waits (2020), Spell (2020), Butchers (2020)

Day 2 of Popcorn Frights' "Wicked Weekend" brings a gritty crime thriller, followed by a bloody and violent horror-comedy, followed by a supernatural romantic comedy that's only tangentially connected to the horror genre, followed by a voodoo flick that's clearly more than a little inspired by Jordan Peele, and finally, a backwoods slasher. How's that for mood whiplash?

To start...

The Oak Room (2020)
