13 Days of Scary Movies 2024! 🎃👻🕸🕷🔪🩸👽💀🤖⛪️🪓😱🦇

Day 6: A scary movie that is a remake

Fright Night 🥵 When I found out Colin Farrell was playing a vampire, I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. When I found out David Tennant was playing the vampire hunter and he'd have his real accent, I almost did die but I definitely wouldn't have gone to heaven.

And here's the trailer, if a shirtless David in leather pants didn't do it for you.
I absolutely, utterly, and completely love the original, but I didn't hate this. I like the different direction they took the Peter Vincent character, and I love David Tennant, but Roddy McDowall's cowardly hasbeen movie host/vampire killer was just perfect.

Evil Ed forever...

I haven’t seen this and I just saw it’s on Tubi a week or so ago. It’s on my watchlist for when my daughter comes to visit next 🤣
I just watched it a week or two ago when I saw it pop up on Tubi! I watched both seasons of Feud on Hulu, and season 2 was Feud: Bette and Joan. The actual movie wasn’t streaming free anywhere when I watched that months ago, and was glad I was finally able to see the source of all the fuss!

I’ve had this in my queues for a lonnng time now, but didn’t know about Tennant! I think it just got bumped to the top!
 
Do i only get to pick one - I forgot Suspiria because I love the argento version and actually really like the Luca Gaudagnino version with Dakota Johnson as a redhead, too

Oddly enough, you had me at "Dakota Johnson as a redhead," for some reason...

The original is a classic and the better of the two but this one isn’t bad. I think this was the first film I saw Vince Vaughn in and then he did comedies.

Psycho (1998)

 
Does a 3rd adaptation of a book count as a remake? I Am Legend (2007) starring Will Smith was based on the Richard Matheson novel by the same name, as were The Last Man on Earth (1964) starring Vincent Price and The Omega Man (1971) starring Charlton Heston. I love them all, TBH, but my answer for “remake” is I Am Legend (2007).
This is my favorite Will Smith film.
 
Day 7: A scary movie that you laughed at.

Freddy Vs Jason


Most of the horror movies I laughed hard at have already been mentioned (Army Of Darkness, Shawn Of The Dead, etc). However, there is one particular scene in this that had me cracking up because of how exaggerated the actress’s delivery was and is then proceeded by a typical Freddy Kruger one-liner.

So for context, the movie is retelling how Jason drowned as a child within a dream - Freddy’s realm. Of course, for anyone who’s seen any Friday The 13th movie, the story goes that he drowned because the camp counselors were having sex and not watching the kids which is how he drowned. So one of the main characters is dreaming this, sees all the counselors banging each other, and tries to warn them that a boy is drowning. She then says the following line super-exaggerated: “Aren’t you coming?” Then this happens:


It’s so juvenile I can’t help but laugh. 🤣

I saw this in the theater and everyone laughed. 🤣❤️

Young Frankenstein

Ok, maybe not a scary movie, but still. Possibly the greatest film? Teri Garr just hams it up, Wilder is superb, Feldman almost steals the show... Everyone just excels.
"Blücher"
Using some of the old movie sets too for authenticity.
I use so many lines from this in day to day speech.
Genius, off the scale
Scariness, not much
"Would you like a roll in ze hay?"
