Yay! More Horror 101!

 

Interesting stuff as always. And the photo with the baboons peeking over the side of Molly Sims' boat was gold.

Would The Faculty be the rare example of the slaying of a Queen freeing a Horde?  It's kind of a bullshit ending, but there it is. 

 

I'd love to see your next "semester" be about romantic comedies and all of their idiotic permutations. 

 

I actually don't remember the ending to THE FACULTY. But sounds like, yes, the would be such an example.

 

Man, the research phase for a ROM-COM 101 would not be nearly as fun. Yikes! Though it would be funny, I agree.

THE FACULTY ends with Elijah slaying the main beast that spawned all the other alien slugs and all of his friends that were infected revert back to normal.  Plus, he now gets to fuck Jordana Brewster.

Nice. I may go back and put that into my column. I always prefer actual film examples versus hypotheticals, when possible.

Re: killing the head/freeing the horde. There are examples where it happens, but you can't really call them "horde" movies e.g. Fright Night. Would The Lost Boys count as a horde? (I know at least one person who thinks there are too many damn vampires in Santa Carla). Head of the vamps killed, Jason Patric and Jami Gertz cured...

 

And nice to have this feature back. Fun stuff with Baboon Holocaust as usual. Atherton!

Yeah, LOST BOYS may have a lot of vampires, but it's not a Horde. It's a fairly fixed, apparent number. Unless I'm remembering the movie very wrong.

That was a great ending. Though I have to say that you left out my favorite piece of Corpse Art. The suspended and gutted cop during Lecter's escape in Lambs. Complete with great lighting effects.

Hate to do this. It's Howling 2: Your Sister is a Werewolf that has the concert stuff throughout the film. New Moon rising just has line dancing.

 

It's a shame this column is ending. It has been an awesome feature to follow. Maybe we could see this again with different genres?

Thanks!

 

And, no, I meant NEW MOON RISING. It has been over tens years since I've seen the film, so possibly I'm remembering it a bit wrong. But I don't think so.

 

I may expand the column to another genre. The only problem is that haven't wallowed as thoroughly in any other genre - as far as watching the worst of what it has to offer - as I have with horror over the years. Though an action series could be fun.

This is sadder than the end of Goodbye, Mr Chips. Come back soon, Teach!

 

Lots that had me smiling in this one. Especially Tangential Music Video and Incredulous Cop.

Action movies could work well. There should be enough common tropes and cliches carried over from a wide range of action movies.

 

Anyway, here's the Howling music thing I was talking about from Howling 2.

I really want a Baboon Holocaust poster to make my new wallpaper.
