Scary Stories (from a Dark Allie)

Honestly, most of this movie was significantly better than I was expecting. The first hour plus was entertaining and hilarious and FULL of familiar faces.

Seriously, Katharine Isabelle AND Lochlyn Munro are in this! Along with Jason Ritter, Monica Keena, Kelly Rowland, and on and on and on…

Happy Friday the 13th! Hope you’re all doing something spooky to celebrate!

I’m so happy this movie exists. It’s so silly and stupid and I was so entertained.

Well, here we are. The last Friday the 13th film of the 20th century. And despite its subtitle, not the actual “final Friday.”

This entry in the franchise was just boring. I like the idea of a change of scenery, but the execution here didn’t really work for me.

I guess I can see what this movie was going for, but I didn’t find it super entertaining.

I didn’t really like this one, and I don’t have too much to say about it.

This one wasn’t bad. It wasn’t great, and it definitely wasn’t as good as yesterday’s, but it was better than the second and third entries in the franchise. It was just okay.

Oh, now THIS is a Friday the 13th movie I can get behind! How did I not know that (very young) Corey Feldman was in this? That’s not the only reason I liked this, but it certainly helped.

Yeah, this…really doesn’t bode well for the rest of this series, but I’m sticking to it. I really wanted to give this one a chance! It’s (spoiler alert?) the first appearance of the hockey mask! It’s another direct sequel!

So I am going to watch a LOT of Friday the 13th films this month, leading up to and just after Friday, September 13th. Like, a lot. I want to say ten different movies starting with this one.

So I’m going to try to change up my viewing habits for this collection and not only watch these a little earlier, but also swap between this franchise and the other movies on my calendar, because ten Jason movies in a row is A LOT. We’ll see if this plan makes it any easier.

This is definitely the weakest entry in the franchise. It’s not bad, but it’s definitely not as good as either of the first two. Plus there’s no Cillian Murphy.

This one isn’t quite as good as the first one, but it’s still pretty good! I love seeing Cillian Murphy in post-apocalyptic horror!

So…I’m on a roll with movies I apparently didn’t give enough of a chance the first time around? Maybe it’s because this movie was SO hyped up when it came out, but I remember thinking “yeah, that was okay”…and today I truly appreciated it.
