Holiday Hell was an entertaining romp through the infernal holiday seasons. Great film to watch with friends at gift exchanges while munching on cheese logs and quaffing spiked egg nog. I had a blast watching a kid (Forrest Campbell) battle his babysitter with the help of a possessed Rabbi doll (WTF? and YESS!), and a drug-impelled miserable husband/Santa (the amazing Joel Murray) becoming the life, er death, of the office party. Check this one out.
Landing squarely in the "intellectual horror" sub-genre of movies like The Babadook, Let the Right One In and It Follows, Brides to Be invites us into the lives of the characters – all their idiosyncrasies and bruised psyches – before heating up the horror. Brides to Be follows Jenna (Carollani Sandberg) and Robin (Angela DiMarco) to a remote lodge in the woods where they plan to marry the next day. Along with Nate, the bestower of quirky wisdom played brilliantly by Jesse Lee Keeter, and a creepy caretaker, they are alone in the Lodge. Or so they think. Watching Angela DiMarco's psychological crumble into desperation and Carollani Sandberg's nuanced intensity seals it. Brides to Be is one of the best horror movies in years.
