October 24th: Quella villa accanto al cimitero (The House by the Cemetery), dir. Lucio Fulci, 1981. (Italy) 4/5 pumpkins
Wow. There are so many things to love about this movie. The creepy moppet, interminable bat attacks, the rapid-fire eye close-ups, incomprehensible plot with more dangling threads than the titular house sports dangling cobwebs, wonderfully atmospheric music, nutso gore, bleak-as-hell ending…yeah. It doesn’t make a lick of sense and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
