Huge fan of LEATHERFACE, even if most others hated it. Gives the iconic horror movie villain a new identity. And if you didn't dig it, nothing's changed ole Leatherface himself. But seriously, this is a raw, brutal, & gruesome flick. Father Gore digs it so much! A gloriously gritty horror. #Leatherface #SerialKiller #Cannibalism #TheTexasChainsawMassacre #MyFamilysAlwaysBeenInMeat #Horror #InstaHorror #Prequel #HorrorFilm #HorrorFan #Gore #Disturbing #Reimagining #HorrorMovies

If you've never seen OGROFF a.k.a MAD MUTILATOR (1983), you've got to get yourself a copy! One of the most surreal slashers. A psychotronic brain-warp. Low on plot, high on strange. Things pivot from slasher to an odd zombie plot at one point, too. You've never seen anything quite like it, really. Only because it's so fucking weird. 🔪🔪🔪 #Ogroff #MadMutilator #1983 #80sHorror #HorrorMovies #Horror #Movies #Psychotronic #LowBudget #FrenchSlasher #FrenchFilm #Slasher #NGMount #SlasherFilm #HorrorFan #InstaHorror

Totally here for the GOTHAM version of Harley Quinn: Ecco! She's one sick fuck. Gives actress Francesca Root-Dodson the chance to do her own thing, as she's not contained to the actual character. Also, lots of great references in this week's episode ("Penguin, Our Hero") from the comics, specifically the Street Demonz from the No Man's Land storyline & the Mutant Leader from The Dark Knight Returns. Click on the link the bio for a recap & review of the latest GOTHAM episode. 🦇 #Batman #Gotham #HarleyQuinn #FrancescaRootDodson #TheDarkKnightReturns #NoMansLand #DCComics #Comics

TRAUMA is a highly disturbing film. Not for the faint of heart. Also maybe not for all horror fans, unless political allegory is interesting to you. The story concerns the leftover remnants of Augusto Pinochet's fascist regime, when a group of women come across a dangerous man in the Chilean countryside. Beware— even a hardened horror hound like Father Gore found a couple moments too much to bear! Nonetheless, this is a fascinating, if not extremely brutal, look at how generational trauma never lets go, sometimes not until death. 💀💀💀 #Trauma #Horror #AugustoPinochet #Fascism #HorrorMovies #InstaHorror #Disturbing #ExtremeHorror #Gore #HorrorFan #Movies #Pinochet #GenerationalTrauma

Working on THREE - yes, THREE - articles for Serial Killer Celluloid, so watch out! One of those is on the real life story behind THE TOWN THAT DREADED SUNDOWN— the 1976 original, not the remake (which Father Gore personally didn't dig, at all). 🔪🔪🔪 #SerialKillers #Murder #MurderSpree #TheTownThatDreadedSundown #70sHorror #1976 #HorrorMovies #InstaHorror #Movies #BasedOnATrueStory #ThePhantomKiller #TrueCrime #Horror #HorrorFilm

I have a rocky relationship with Žižek, but I'm loving EVENT so far. #Philosophy #SlavojŽižek #Žižek #Existentialism #Hegel #JacquesLacan #Reality
