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?

Satan has been cast out from hell and banished to Earth under decree of heaven. He can return, only through a series of temptations. However, for every soul who gives in to his tempting, one hundred years are added to his sentence. For every soul who resists, one thousand years are removed from his sentence. The film follows Satan throughout much of recorded history.

I wanted to tackle some of the movies that are occasionally listed among pre-1931 horror films, and I thought I would start with one of the ones that I would like the least. I didn't like it. These silent epics are not my thing. The French Revolution one is the only one that I really liked. It was kind of interesting that it included a segment about the Finnish civil war, because I don't know anything about that. I was bored. I kind of like D. W. Griffith's Intolerance better. Melodrama is more entertaining than realism in a silent movie.

There are two more segments that I didn't mention. The first is the crucifixion. The other is the Spanish Inquisition.

Figured I should mention those for completeness' sake.

It sounds like it'd make a fascinating novel. Or graphic novel. A graphic novel of this would be pretty freaking fantastic.
