30 Nights of Paranormal Activity With the Devil Inside The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (2012)


In addition to horror, I enjoy comedies.  When the two are combined, I'm usually quite interested in seeing the result.  Other times, I just wind up wanting to drink the memory away...

Shortly after moving into the house where her father killed several people (and a dog), Dana and her husband begin to experience supernatural events that will ultimately lead to a confrontation between the family and evil...

"30 Nights of Paranormal Activity With the Devil Inside the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" is a parody of horror movies.  Unfortunately, I think the actual concept of a parody has been destroyed by the "Scary Movie" franchise.  It used to mean poking fun at movies, while still respecting the source material... and having a coherent, strong storyline and characters.  Now, it means sticking random vignettes based on popular films together in a sequence that kinda simulates a story.

The ACTUAL premise- as stated above could've provided a good starting point for horror or comedy- or a decent blend of both.  The storyline used is shoddy, slapdash, and idiotic.  many of the jokes are crude, simply not funny.  Any laughs that occur tend to be caused by disbelief in how stupid the joke is.

I didn't like any of the characters or acting.  At all.

Let's face it, I did not like this movie.  Period.  End of review.  "30 Nights of Paranormal Activity With the Devil Inside the Girl With the Dragon Tattoo" is condemned to sit and rot in The Ugly.

Grave Questions: Jessica Cameron

February is " Women in Horror Month "- a month in which to celebrate the impact that women have had on the genre and the industry- from writing, to acting, to directing and producing. Jessica Cameron has experienced the industry in all those capacity- making her a perfect choice for me to ask some " Grave Questions " of in order to raise awareness of the great women in Horror. Please not that this article SHOULD'VE been posted in February, but due to technical difficulties, we're putting it up now.  Thank you. TCoT :   Which female horror stars helped to inspire you to not only enjoy the genre- but to get involved in bringing scary movies to the world? Jessica :  I literally said to my " Truth or Dare " producer, "If the Soska sisters can make " Dead Hooker in a Trunk " with nothing, then I can make " Truth or Dare ".  So needless to say that those girls have been a huge inspiration in everything I do behind the

Meridian: Kiss of the Beast (1990)

Sometimes, a director/producer will surprise you- such was the case during " Terrorpolooza 2012 " when I watched Charles Band's " Meridian: Kiss of the Beast " Catherine Bomarzini has come home after her father's death.  Needing company, she asks Gina to stay with her.  Soon, the two meet a wondering troupe of performers that Catherine invites to dinner at her castle. Catherine find herself pulled into a love triangle and an ancient curse that only she can break. After watching movies like " Evil Bong ", and " Demonic Toys ", I really wasn't expecting too much from this Charles Band movie- but I was pleasantly surprised by it. The story is actually quite interesting with lots of potential for eerie scenes, and character development.  It's a nice twist on the classic " Beauty and the Beast " story.  It's a bit slower than most of Band's other works, but moves smoothly and draws you with it. I have to ad

The Phantom of the Opera

  Not too long ago, I reviewed the silent horror classic, "Nosferatu: A Symphony of Horror", and wound up being in the mood to view a few other of the silent horror films in my collection.  The next one I watched was "The Phantom of the Opera", starring Lon Chaney, Sr, and released in 1925.   A mysterious stranger has been threatening the star singer of the Paris Opera House- someone who has signs his letters simply as, "The Phantom".  This stranger wants to clear the way so his protege, Christine Daae can ascend to stardom herself.  Soon, her love for the Comte de Chagny collides with The Phantom's desire for Christine forcing both to take drastic actions in order to be with the one they love. " The Phantom of the Opera " actually underwent three periods of re-shoots and editing, due to poor reception and test viewings.  In 1930, a sound version was created- often assumed to be what is called "The Eastman House Print".  It is
