Masters of Horror - John Carpenter & Stuart Gordon (2005) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)"Cigarette Burns" is directed by horror legend John Carpenter, the creator of HALLOWEEN. "LA FIN ABSOLUE DU MONDE" (The Absolute end of the World)is the title of the most sought after horror movie in history. One man's obsession with finding the movie may become his demise.
This movie was very well done, and very inventive.
NOT MANY full length films are even close to the quality of this.
-----------------------------------
"Dreams in the Witch House", Gordon's movie, isn't as good, but puts a strange perspective on a new age ghost story. A man rents a cheap apartment so he can study, but he doesnt do much of that. He discovers evidence of a dimensional shift in his room.
Very bloody and caught me off guard.
The DVD combo pack is absolutly worth the time to watch...a horror fans' delight.

Masters of Horror - Stuart Gordon - Dreams in the Witch House (2005) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)This is an unusually good little horror flick, with those elements of utter wierdness that only Lovecraft adaptations seem to deliver on these days. This one is unusal for Lovecraft in that it somewhat ties into traditional Christian mythology.
I agree the library scene was almost incongrous and some backstory would have been welcome, especially something from the original story. But it was fairly faithful in spirit and though fairly slow in the beginning, has a truly horrific bang-up ending. I rate this one roughly between re-animator and the recent Dagon which I also liked a lot.

When stressed-out student Walter Gilman (Ezra Godden of DAGON) rents a room in a decrepit old house, his graduate thesis studies begin to take some very strange twists: He suffers nightmares about a voracious rat with a human face. He suspects that a gateway to another dimension may exist behind his wall.And he is seemingly seduced by a luscious she-demon who thirsts for souls of the innocent via a covenant that screams for blood. But when Walter must face the most depraved urge of all, will the line between madness,murder and unholy mayhem be crossed forever? Chelah Horsdal (HOLLOW MAN 2) and Jay Brazeau (INSOMNIA,THEY) co-star in this disturbing shocker directed by Stuart Gordon, co-written by Gordon & Dennis Paoli (THE DENTIST, CASTLE FREAK) and based on the infamous short story by horror master H.P. Lovecraft
