Ha! I haven't planned this, obviously, but besides Mirrors, Chelsea Stardust's Satanic Panic was the second movie I've watched as my kick-off into this month this morning. Nice to see it as a header image, very fun movie with some great scenes.
Satanic Panic (2019 - Chelsea Stardust) Man, that demonic ritual went tits up...
AN EVENING OF EDGAR ALLEN POE NARRATED AND PERFORMED BY VINCENT PRICE (1970) Who says there isn’t a perfect anthology?
And to kick it off, 4 bonus 7 word reviews for the individual segments: —The Telltale Heart A devilish plan… but at what Price? — The Sphinx Despite safety from pandemic, aristocrat fears moth — The Cask of Amontillado The second best Vincent Price drinking contest —The Pit and the Pendulum Vincent Price pronounces bosom “boooo-sarm” 4 times
That smoke machine sure makes strippers look scary! I do not know which version you watched, but I have seen the Vinegar Syndrome restoration. The film looks much better than it probably deserves to.
So worth the buy? I've been debating. Some other classics while looking great haven't really looked that much better than their blus in my limited 4k experience(only had the tv like 2 months)
Bruce Willis gives lifeless performance. Otherwise, good.
Side note: I think there's a general consensus that M. Night Shyamalan's first three movies are his best. I saw The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable back when they came out, and I remember thinking both were very good, but I don't think I've seen them again since those first watches. I've seen Signs 10-15 times, and always thought of it as my favorite Shyamalan, but wasn't sure whether that was just due to a familiarity factor. Watching The Sixth Sense again tonight, it's very good, but I still think Signs is my favorite. Now I'm due for an Unbreakable rewatch.
