Some of the "so called bad movie" are the most fun to watch, I.E.: "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes", Plan 9 From Outer Space" to name a few. But to each their own.Boar. A movie so bad its crap. Then goes down hill in the last few minutes. The most terrifying thing in the movie is the script, i expect the actors where happy to throw themselves into the jaws of the giant animatronic boar as its stood menacingly still.
Directed by the Hereditary lass Ari Whatsername. One of the new generation doing it so well. I look forward to Robert (The VVitch) Eggers' next - The Lighthouse. He's another who has the goods. Great young talent.

Between Worlds: Yet another horror film starring Nicholas Cage on Netflix but this one isn't at all bad. He doesn't start to chew up the scenery until the last ten minutes. Cage is Joe, a trucker who lost his wife and daughter in a fire and is about to lose his truck due to his drinking and overdue loan repayments. He comes to the rescue of Julie (Franka Potente) who is being choked by a guy. She isn't happy about the rescue as she was trying to bring on a Near Death Experience so that she could guide her comatose daughter Billie's (Penelope Mitchell) spirit back into her body. Joe agrees to choke her and it works. No it's not a comedy, this works out credibly enough (if you're a horror fan) on the screen. However the spirit which returned isn't Billie. Joe moves in with Julie but Billie knows things about him, things she couldn't possibly have found out by normal means.
Cage is world weary and beaten down in Between Worlds, he looks like an ailing werewolf. The strange encounter gives him hope of a new beginning only to have this brought into question by Billies odd and increasingly crazed behaviour. Potente is convincing as someone who is used to having out of body experiences, her first one is chillingly reimagined as she is shown as a teenager, trapped under ice. Mitchell portrays a teenager who has a much older mind, a classic dybbuk case. Written and directed by Maria Pulera this is an enjoyable Horror/Thriller. 7/10. On Netflix.
I think I've seen that.Black Mountain Side: Canada's Arctic North, archaeologists discover an ancient building dating to the end of the last Ice Age, predating the Clovis People. The mostly buried structure has carvings similar to those in Mesoamerica but is undecipherable. Other artefacts of a similar age surround the building at a distance suggesting observation posts. Things start to get strange, more than just those resulting from solitude and isolation in the Arctic wilds. One of the local workers accuses a archaeologist of killing a cat. Some are stricken by a strange infection. The local workers desert the camp in the middle of the night but head in the opposite direction to their Reservation. Communications with the outside world are cut off.
Owing a debt to The Thing but very much it's own film Black Mountain Side is infused with Lovecraftian terrors. Could a reawakened bacteria at the dig be causing the illness? Is there some otherworldly cause be it supernatural or extraterrestrial? Paranoia spreads at the base as people hear voices and see strangers. While most of the horror is psychological there are some gory scenes involving the amputation of an infected arm with an axe and self-mutilation. You will ponder over this film's meaning long after the credits roll. Effective horror film directed and written by Nick Szostakiwskyj. 8/10.
