Horror Quote Of The Moment


Welcome to Under The Morgue.

We have sections for each decade of film, from the 1910s onward, as well as sections for 10+ major franchises, close to 50 'smaller' franchises (containing five entries or less), creative writing, independent filmmaking, photography, music, Non-Horror films and TV shows, forum games, and boredom busters, and to top it all off there's an IM shoutbox at the bottom of the page for random chat. From the tame and 'kid sister friendly' to the psychological and mindbending to cheesy splatter flicks to hardcore torture-oriented horror, there's something here for everyone, so why not dive in?

Deadline reports that Magnet Releasing will now back XX, a new horror anthology with a gender twist – all segments will be helmed by female directors and will star female leads, as previously reported.

Karyn Kusama (Girlfight, Jennifer’s Body), Mary Harron (American Psycho, pictured), Jennifer Lynch (Hiss, Surveillance), and Jovanka Vuckovic have been tapped to direct the project, which is heading for completion in 2015 with producer Dwjuan Fox overseeing.

I just watched this last night, and I liked it, as uneven as it was. I thought that "The Box" was the weakest of the four segments, and probably should've been put deeper in the film with "Don't Fall", the most "traditional" of the bunch, opening it; I understood the anorexia metaphor, but the lack of any explanation was less mysterious for me and more just confusing. Fortunately, I liked all of the other three segments, and the acting and direction were all solid across the board even in spots where the writing fumbled. Overall, it was a good entry in the canon of horror anthologies that takes some time to get going (at least, in my opinion), but delivers nonetheless.

My full review is here.
