Can't wait for DARLIN' (2019)— a sequel to THE WOMAN, which was itself a sequel to OFFSPRING, directed/written by + starring the excellent Pollyanna McIntosh! This one's going to be wild, & Father Gore's dying to see it. 🔪💀 #Horror #Sequel #JackKetchum #LuckyMcKee #HorrorMovies #HorrorFan #InstaHorror #Cannibalism #TheWoman #PollyannaMcIntosh #WomenInHorror #Film #Creepy #Darlin #Cannibal #SocialHorror #HorrorAddict #Film #Movies

THE ROOST (2005) An underrated gem from director-writer Ti West— his 1st feature. Wonderful practical effects. Bats that turn people into zombies. The framing device of a late night horror TV show, featuring Tom Noonan as the host. Can it get any better? Father Gore loves this flick. Lots of fun! And creeps! 🦇💀 #Horror #TiWest #Zombies #TomNoonan #HorrorMovies #InstaHorror #HorrorFan #Film #HorrorHost #2000sHorror #LarryFessenden #GlassEyePix #Throwback #Movies #Creepy #DVD #DVDCollection

WE HAVE ALWAYS LIVED IN THE CASTLE (2019) is a truly fantastic adaptation of Shirley Jackson. A delightfully Gothic treat about women trying to escape the brutal chokehold of patriarchy, as well as how rural America can often scapegoat, & wound, anybody who's seen as Other. Click the link in the bio! Read Father Gore's essay on the movie. But don't read unless you've seen it first— here, there be spoilers. It'll probably be fine for those who've read the novel, too. 💀 #Horror #Gothic #ShirleyJackson #HorrorMovies #TaissaFarmiga #AlexandraDaddario #CrispinGlover #InstaHorror #Film #Drama #Otherness #WeHaveAlwaysLivedInTheCastle #Novel #FilmAdaptation #HorrorFan #GothicHorror #SebastianStan #FilmReview #Essay #Patriarchy

VAMPYR (1932) One of the great vampire films ever made. Based partly on Sheridan Le Fanu's collection of supernatural stories, In a Glass Darkly. Unforgettable imagery. The Criterion Collection edition is stunning. Such beautiful cinematography! Plus, the discs come with the screenplay, as well as a copy of the novella Carmilla by Le Fanu. 🦇 #Horror #1930s #HorrorFan #InstaHorror #Film #CarlTheodorDreyer #DanishFilm #ForeignFilm #HorrorMovies #HorrorAddict #Surrealism #Vampire #Vampyr #SheridanLeFanu #Gothic #Supernatural
