30 Nights of Paranormal Activity With the Devil Inside The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (2012)


In addition to horror, I enjoy comedies.  When the two are combined, I'm usually quite interested in seeing the result.  Other times, I just wind up wanting to drink the memory away...

Shortly after moving into the house where her father killed several people (and a dog), Dana and her husband begin to experience supernatural events that will ultimately lead to a confrontation between the family and evil...

"30 Nights of Paranormal Activity With the Devil Inside the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" is a parody of horror movies.  Unfortunately, I think the actual concept of a parody has been destroyed by the "Scary Movie" franchise.  It used to mean poking fun at movies, while still respecting the source material... and having a coherent, strong storyline and characters.  Now, it means sticking random vignettes based on popular films together in a sequence that kinda simulates a story.

The ACTUAL premise- as stated above could've provided a good starting point for horror or comedy- or a decent blend of both.  The storyline used is shoddy, slapdash, and idiotic.  many of the jokes are crude, simply not funny.  Any laughs that occur tend to be caused by disbelief in how stupid the joke is.

I didn't like any of the characters or acting.  At all.

Let's face it, I did not like this movie.  Period.  End of review.  "30 Nights of Paranormal Activity With the Devil Inside the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" is condemned to sit and rot in The Ugly.

Meridian: Kiss of the Beast (1990)

Sometimes, a director/producer will surprise you- such was the case during " Terrorpolooza 2012 " when I watched Charles Band's " Meridian: Kiss of the Beast " Catherine Bomarzini has come home after her father's death.  Needing company, she asks Gina to stay with her.  Soon, the two meet a wondering troupe of performers that Catherine invites to dinner at her castle. Catherine find herself pulled into a love triangle and an ancient curse that only she can break. After watching movies like " Evil Bong ", and " Demonic Toys ", I really wasn't expecting too much from this Charles Band movie- but I was pleasantly surprised by it. The story is actually quite interesting with lots of potential for eerie scenes, and character development.  It's a nice twist on the classic " Beauty and the Beast " story.  It's a bit slower than most of Band's other works, but moves smoothly and draws you with it. I have to ad...

Zombie Bikers From Detroit (2001)

Over the years, it has been shown that with very little money, a skillful director can put together a high quality horror movie (John Carpenter's " Halloween ", " The Blair Witch Project ", and " Paranormal Activity " being a few of them).  So, when it comes to determining a movie's quality, budget is no longer a negative... Ken and his mother have moved from Hell, Michigan to Grosse Pointe near Detroit.  Upon his arrival, he meets the lovely Courtney, and her jealous suitor Chad.  While Ken and Chad square off, an evil is growing within Detroit and slowly spreading towards Grosse Point... where Ken will meet his destiny ... This week's " What Movie Wednesday " winner was " Zombie Bikers From Detroit "- a low budget horror movie that feels like it was put together as a school project.  High School, or College... I can't really tell. The premise- as stated in my little synopsis is interesting- as was the title.  ...

The Black Castle (Les Daniels)

Vampires and witches are often a good basis for a horror novel.  Through in the Spanish Inquisition, and odds are you'll get a pretty good story. In 1496, while the Spanish Inquisition is in full motion, Diego  de Villanueva is seeking a way to rise through the ranks of the Inquistion.  He will do anything he needs to... even use his brother's darkest secrets and knowledge to bring fear and hatred to the world... " The Black Castle " caught my  eye while shopping at " The Book Place ".  I was intrigued by the idea of it taking place during the Spanish Inquisition.  While I did enjoy reading this book, I was also a little disappointed. The style is very fitting to the story- it has an almost old world charm and rythm to it that I found pleasing to the ear.  It's also easy to read, and flows at a nice pace.  While, it's not "fancy", the images it creates are fairly good and atmospheric. The story itself is a really interesting idea....
