SUMMARY: Six scientists investigate a strange phenomenon at the creepy Headstone Manor, the site of a mysterious massacre years earlier that took the lives of 18 guests in one night.
This bit from the Wikipedia article plus our horror lord and saviour Vincent Price was more than enough to convince the mod to watch this movie: It is an over-the-top spoof loosely inspired by The Amityville Horror and other horror films from the same period.

2023 in Films
I watched way too many films this year. Here are my opinions on some of them
January
Las Cosas Del Querer (1989) - Amazing if you love sad hot people and flamenco
Canadian Bacon (1995) - Incredibly silly and Alan Alda plays the US president
Nope (2022) - A highlight of the year
February
Hellraiser (1987) - This film is actually about miscommunication in this essay I will-
Predestination (2014) - Time Travel and Gender Moments
Malignant (2021) - Camp horror masterwork
Late Phases (2014) - Mediocre werewolf film with some really interesting comments on ageism, ableism, suburbia and religion
March
Sterne (1959) - Plays into some problematic stereotypes from today's perspective but revolutionary for its time, first German film to address the Holocaust
Major League (1989) - A film I only watched to confirm that it uses a weird phrase I also found in my thesis project
Carry On Screaming (1966) - Camp. Gay. Horror. Parody.
Glen or Glenda (1953) - A product of its time and no longer up to date in its understanding of gender but surprisingly revolutionary in its compassion and earnestness despite the bad reviews
April
Taxi Driver (1976) - Isn't it frustrating when annoying people tell you a film is good and then it's actually good?
June
Mr Deeds Goes To Town (1936) - Mr Deeds has autism swag
El Espíritu de la Colmena (1973) - I really wanted to like this because civil war era Spain and Frankenstein are super up my alley but unfortunately it was so much slower than expected
Das Boot (1981) - Very long and claustrophobic but holds up to the hype
Weird: The Al Yankovic Story (2022) - RIP King
July
Nimona (2023) - His big wet eyes bewitched me
First Blood (1982) - You're telling me the film is about Americans fighting an enemy they view as simultaneously weak and dangerous, escalating the situation, and then sending more and more men into a rainforest to die through guerilla warfare after being warned again and again they can't win this? sounds familiar
Barbie (2023) - Insert a bunch of pink emojis
Everything Everywhere All at Once (2022) - Made me crave bagels
Jojo Rabbit (2019) - God I love war satires
Sweet Liberty (1986) - Alan Alda having fun and also using his own film as a therapy session
The Majestic (2001) - A rewatch but it's so tragically underrated, Jim Carrey is very good in dramatic roles and McCarthy-era media is like catnip for me
Joker (2019) - This is just Taxi Driver with extra steps
August
Tin & Tina (2023) - Probably one of the worst films I have seen in a while
Battle of the Sexes (2017) - I love women
Four Lions (2010) - The ending really got me, I love when satire gets serious
The Sheriff and the Satellite Kid (1979) - Can we talk about how the theme song is just going "I'm the sheriff" "yes you're the sheriff"
Happiness (1998) - Nauseating but in a "good film but what the fuck" way
They Call Him Bulldozer (1978) - Italian Lagaan
The Talented Mr Ripley (1999) - Sad and Gay
Twister (1996) - So much better than expected
Magnolia (1999) - Cloudy with a chance of frogs, a really long but really good film and I'm not entirely sure I got it
Doubt (2008) - Somehow I watched 5 films with Philip Seymour Hoffman that month because I was haunted by his ghost or something
September
The Terminal (2004) - I assumed this to be more of a classic romcom but the whole concept (based on a true story) is so terrifying and tragic that it made me feel all emotions at once
Apocalypse Now (1979) - I knew a lot of trivia about the film but for some reason I didn't know anything about the cast so every single actor was a surprise and made me go "!!!", Also I kinda wanna write an essay about it
October
Bloodbath at the House of Death (1984) - Some of the gay jokes absolutely killed me
Last Night in Soho (2021) - I'm Not Like the Other Girls to Time Travel Murder Nightmare Pipeline, actually I really enjoyed this one but it's also super silly
The Banshees of Inisherin (2022) - How do you say poor little meow meow in gaeilge
The Menu (2022) - I go to the murder restaurant I order the beesechurger, I was super surprised there's no cannibalism but tbh that would have been low hanging fruit
The Eyes of Tammy Faye (2021) - Explains a lot about religion in the US, I love that she was pro lgbt, also I googled her ex husband and he has a prepper/survivalist thing going on now and scams more people
The Darjeeling Limited (2007) - we can't eat pray love ourselves out of this one boys
Holes (2003) - Hated the book as a teenager for school reasons but gave the film a try and really enjoyed it
Renfield (2023) - I expected werewolves but I enjoyed it nevertheless, My Chemical Romance is on the soundtrack, it's very silly, the effects are great
Interview with the Vampire (1994) - Oh people weren't lying about it being homoerotic
The Big Lebowski (1998) - I've had days that feel like that
November
Pappa ante Portas (1991) - Funnier now that I'm an adult, basically half the jokes my mum makes are from this film
The Meg 2: The Trench (2023) - I watched this while sick and really wanted to see a giant shark fight a giant octopus and boy did it deliver
Puss in Boots: The Last Wish (2022) - Very nice animation style
JFK (1991) - I actually fell asleep halfway through because it's so long but can we talk about how this film is just A-listers but has some of the worst wigs and makeup I've seen
Bottoms (2023) - A spiritual sequel to Heathers
December
When Harry Met Sally (1989) - They deserve each other (derogatory) but that one restaurant scene was pretty funny
The Royal Nanny (2022) - one of the many Hallmark films my mum made me watch and this is perhaps the worst one, incredibly sexist even for a Hallmark film and they clearly mean Mi5 but say Mi7 which was a WW2 propaganda service? Also they really want me to believe there is a British prince called Colin and that he doesn't look like his family tree is a circle?
I forgot the title but there was also the one where two people get stuck in a time loop while trying to make a sponsored youtube video about baking and I didn't really pay attention much but man that was bad

The Price May Be Right - Number 30
Welcome to “The Price May Be Right!” I’m counting down My Top 31 Favorite Vincent Price Performances & Appearances! The countdown will cover movies, TV productions, and many more forms of media. Today we focus on Number 30: The Sinister Man, from Bloodbath at the House of Death.
Tumblr media
This…is not a very good movie. XD “Bloodbath at the House of Death” is a 1984 film that essentially attempted to do a non-musical version of what things like “Rocky Horror Picture Show” tried out. The film is a satirical, farcical comedy with a surreal and perverse sense of humor, which takes various horror and sci-fi tropes, then mixes and mangles them all with a combination of slapstick, over-the-top camp antics, and a heavy dose of vulgarity. However, while “Rocky Horror,” in my opinion, is successful in its attempts to both mock and pay homage to the genre and its cliches, “Bloodbath” is much less competent. To be blunt, it’s just not very funny. However, the movie is not completely without its merits…and most of those merits come from Vincent Price as the main villain of the story: a mysterious figure known simply as The Sinister Man. This wicked and wily antagonist is the leader of a Satanic cult. Years ago before the start of the film, this cult committed a massacre in the titular House of Death, and they now guard the property in secret, using it as a headquarters for their bizarre rituals. When a team of scientists go to the aged manor, investigating strange radiation readings emanating from the property, the Sinister Man bands his forces together to purge the outsiders from their lair. This is one of many times in Vincent’s career – particularly common in his later years – where he essentially is performing a work of self-parody. In fact, this was a fairly common thing with a lot of horror actors from years past, including Vincent’s friends, Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing, not to mention even older performers, such as Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi. However, I would argue the difference between some other performers and Vincent’s way of working was that, even during his prime, Vincent ALWAYS had a sense of humor about himself and the reputation he had. As time went on, as a result, he was more than happy to joke about in such projects; it always felt so honest with Price. As if he was laughing right alongside the audience, happily guiding them through the mayhem. It’s this sparky sort of humor that makes Price’s turn as the Sinister Man genuinely great to watch. He makes the worst jokes suddenly snicker-worthy, and the few jokes that were already good suddenly become HILARIOUS in his skillful hands. He plays the Sinister Man with a sort of foppish silliness, as if he’s actively TRYING to be this all-powerful figure of grand oratory and awe, but his pomposity is constantly punctured, causing him to revert to a spoiled brat. It’s like if Daffy Duck decided to play��well…Vincent Price! And that’s a lot of fun to watch. A lot of my favorite comedic moments in Vincent’s career actually come from this one movie; therefore, even though the picture as a whole isn’t very good, I still felt it was worth giving it attention on the countdown.
Tomorrow, the countdown continues with my pick for Number 29!
