The Third Saturday in October Part V (2022)
Masking mayhem
Our indiscriminate masked killer is at it again creating mayhem but never quite masters parking his chosen mode of transport - the ever so ominous hearse. He clearly revels in hanging out at people's homes before dispatching them with a psychotic air reminiscent for me of Joaquin Phoenix's Joker performance. It's hard not to laugh out loud at some of the killing scenes. In most horror films it seems the pre-murder build-up tension is the most unsettling. I don't think this film achieves that (again . . . He seems to spend an awful long time doing what exactly before getting down to the bloody action!) but hits the spot when it comes to the killer's post slasher indulgences . . . Humorously unsettling and weirdly compelling viewing! Give it a go I say.
The Third Saturday in October (2022)
Someone's ALWAYS in your house!
Refreshing to take a break from big budget blockbusters and appreciate the art of movie making by creative and resourceful talented people who put together this 80s/90s homage to classic slasher films. The effects were surprisingly good and included some essential "look away" moments (no spoilers . .you need to watch the film . . and your toes!). Threesome action scene is a must see! Some favorite moments were the Beetlejuice-esque retro TV Ads. A brilliant Sunday afternoon spent with friends laughing (and looking away) watching Third Saturday in October after first (very important sequencing) watching Part V. The child actor was especially natural and talented . . . A star in the making!
