"Night of the Living Dead" ~ 1990

"Night of the Living Dead"  ~ 1990

Netflix description  =  This revamp of the black and white original brings to lurid color the tale of a band of small town folks surrounded by an army of walking dead.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This was truly a good zombie movie!  For being a remake they kept it almost as the original with some extra gore and carnage.  Ig a fan of the original, you won't be disappointed.  Certainly worth the watch!!

My Score  4/5

"Carrie" ~ 2002

"Carrie"  ~  2002

Netflix description  =  This remake of th classic 1976 horror flick finds misfit Carrie getting revenge on all the people who've bullied her over the years.  As the teenager develops physically, her telekinetic abilities also blossom with a power shes never had before.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

This story is retold / remade every few years it seems.  The story is still strong and creepy as it ever has been.  I liked the modernization of this particular version and especially the end.  Worth the watch!

My score   3.5/5

"The Fog"

"The Fog"  ~  2005

Netflix description  =  This creepy thriller is about an island town off the coast of Oregon that's forced to contend with some unwelcome visitors from its past: the spirits of lepers and sailors aboard a ship that the hamlets fore-fathers had steered astray on purpose.  Those aboard the doomed vessel all wound up lost in the fog forever.  Now they're back from the mist, eager to exact revenge on the descendants of their murderers.

I remember watching the original when I was (much) younger and it sure seemed a lot scarier.  That said this was a still a good movie.  They did a well done modern remake.  Lots of creep factor and I must admit to jumping at least twice.  :)  Worth the watch

My score  3/5

"The Haunting"

"The Haunting"  ~  1999

Netflix description  =  A professor invites three insomniacs to take part in a sleep disorder study at an eerie, isolated mansion.  The unfortunate guests soon discover that their host is far more interested in the sinister mansion itself and the true nature of its horror.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I remember seeing this many years ago and this psychological horror is still a fun, creepy watch.  Not a lot of gore, but this story is all about horrors untold and unseen.  I liked the portrayal of each character, changing the original story to be more modernized and still always watching the shadows.  Definitely worth the watch!!

My score   3/5
