They had to stop the film partway through Starry Eyes to remove a woman who began sobbing and fainted. They walked her out with her things and she was completely grey. Note: This doesn't make the movie any more worth seeing. It's just the first time I've actually seen that happen.

I like horror but there are so many bad horror movies these days...probably because they are so cheap to make.

Not sure they're any cheaper to make than any other genre film. Also not sure the ratio of good to bad is any different than it's been in the past. There have always been a disproportionately large number of bad Horror films. I think this may be a small part of the reason I'm attracted. Finding the good ones feels that much sweeter.
- horror films are generally v.bad these days compared to the past and in particular the 1970sfadein11

Maniac (2012)
Beyond the Black Rainbow (2010)Beyond is more sci fi than horror, but it has some classic horror elements, and the soundtrack is intense. Both soundtracks are great, actually.

Piranha (2010) = ★★★☆☆ (so bad its good, funny and gory)
Cabin In The Woods (2012) = ★★☆☆☆ (worth watching for end)
