The Doorway (2000)

The Horror! Hauntingly Bad Film Choices As a Teen

[1/10 · 24 July 2016]

Back in the olden days of VHS and movie store rentals, in our naivety of taste my teenage friends and I binged on whatever horror themed movies we could find. To this day I am forbidden from being the one to suggest random films to watch unless I do research before hand, no more blind picking for me!

It's like any classic bottom of the barrel bad horror movie. The film is so bad its funny, but pathetically so. Cheesy effects, acting, and plot the trifecta of what makes a however low you can go in the alphabet horror film.

If you run out of needles or other objects to stab in you eye, then I suggest this nugget of a film to numb yourself with.

Artsy Piece For Sure

[3/10 · 24 July 2016]

Eons ago this film was presented in my history of art class at university. What I really remember is my professor claiming it as a necessity of any art student to view it as a right of passage. While viewing the film, though only 45 minutes in length I managed to fall asleep. This was the only time I have ever fallen asleep in class. Even watching my early film class with D. W. Griffith's Intolerance in a very hot, stuffy room in the most uncomfortable seats ever did not make me visit the land of Nod.

Yet it holds value to many others in its artistic nature. Sadly as I failed to consciously view most of it I can only give short and brief opinion on it as a good sleep aid.
