The 31 Days of Horror- #12


#12
A truly original and unsettling monster flick, and another f'ing WB/Abercrombie inspired horror movie..."

The Hidden Gem:
Splinter (2008)
The Master says:"The creature in this movie, and the things it does to a human body are a thing of brilliance; The cracking and breaking, the lumbering around with a broken body, in search of its next meal/host... You can only catch quick shots of the creature, but when you do, it more than get's its point across.
Splinter is a pretty good effort that manages to deliver some creepy atmosphere and tense moments, complimented by some pretty intense gore effects... not to mention the hotness of Jill Wagner, who can actually act."



The Train Wreck:
Prom Night (2008)
The Master says:"Ok fine, the original Prom Night isn't one of the greatest classic 80's slashers, but it's hell and gone better than this predictable snooze fest. Another one for the kiddies, this movie is devoid of anything resembling a scare. I did like the hot chicks though, but even they weren't enough to save me from the ridiculous and 100% predictable plot. I know horror of the 80's was fairly predictable too sometimes, but wasn't there more of a payoff back then? Didn't they actually scare us, or gross us out or something? Making the killer visible and more of a "Normal" guy was a big mistake..."
