Let’s Ride #29! Three teachers en route to an L.A. Dodgers game have car trouble and wind up face-to-face with a sadistic killer and his young girlfriend in 1963’s tense The Sadist.

Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Dark Country (2009)

Let’s Ride #28! Thomas Jane stars in 2009’s Dark Country, a film in which he also makes his directorial debut. The film was written by Tab Murphy and and features Lauren German and Ron Perlman in supporting roles. The movie was shot in 3D which, in my opinion, heavily limits the film’s style and alsoContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Dark Country (2009)”

Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Psychomania (1973)

Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Roadgames (1981)

Let’s Ride #24! Up until a few days ago, 1981’s Roadgames wasn’t even on my radar. I didn’t know that it existed. Heck, I never even knew that Stacy Keach and Jamie Lee Curtis ever made a film together. When I finally put eyes on this little gem of a movie, however, I was pleasantlyContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Roadgames (1981)”

Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Monster Man (2003)

Let’s Ride #23! 2003’s Monster Man is a film that left me full of mixed feelings. The bulk of the film isn’t that great. It’s littered with bad, sophomoric jokes, most of which are delivered by Justin Urich as Harley, who comes off as a blend of every single stereotypical fun-loving jerk who the viewerContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Monster Man (2003)”

Thirty-One Days O’Horror: The Car (1977)

Let’s Ride #22! After yesterday’s post, I decided to blog about one of the better killer car flicks out there, 1977’s The Car! So what’s The Car all about and why is it so awesome? Basically, a demonic car arrives in a sleepy Utah town and begins killing people. The local sheriff’s department, which isContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: The Car (1977)”

Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Road Train (2010)

Let’s Ride #21! Opening with a needless sex scene and then unraveling into a ridiculous mess, 2010’s Road Train (also called Road Kill) is a terrible film. I love bad movies, but this film just plain sucks. It tries very hard to give the viewer a cyclical view of Hades, or something similar, but neverContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Road Train (2010)”

Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Shortcut (2020)

Let’s Ride #20! Five teenagers and their bus driver encounter a sinister force in a dark tunnel in 2020’s Shortcut. Directed by Alessio Liguori, this film has a nice helping of suspense, one quick twist early on, and a creature that moves in the shadows. It’s a fun horror flick with a strong cast, aContinue reading “Thirty-One Days O’Horror: Shortcut (2020)”
