Bluray Tuesday: Featuring Boo 2, Gothic & Class of 1999

January 30th 2018

The last Bluray Tuesday of the month is here. I feel like January flew by! This week is a bit lighter in releases than previous weeks but it has a few standouts. First up is The Madea sequel Boo! 2 A Madea Halloween. With the success of the original, Lionsgate green-lit a sequel. I've enjoyed a few Madea films but the first Boo! wasn't what I expected. Next up this week is numbers 13 & 14 in the Vestron Video collector's series, Gothic and Class of 1999. Both are released for the first time on Bluray. I will definitely be adding these to my collection. Vestron has been releasing some cool editions to their line and the slipcovers look great together as a set. Vinegar Syndrome releases Lucifer's Women for the first time on Bluray this week. This one I've never heard of, so if anyone has seen this let me know how it is. And finally, Shout Factory releases a dark action superhero film Rendel: Dark Vengeance, which is another film I haven't heard of but may check out in the near future. So what will you buy, rent or skip this week? Let us know in the comments. Until next week!

Boo! 2: A Madea Halloween: Amazon - $19.99

Tiffany travels to Derrick Lake to celebrate her 18th birthday at a Halloween frat party in the middle of the woods.

Chaos soon strikes when the would-be heroes find themselves fighting for their lives against an array of spooky monsters, goblins and boogeymen.

Screenings in the Bay (Monday to Friday): Winchester, SF Indie Fest, Super Shangri-La Show, Mainland Noir

We are entering festival territory in this last week of January! Noir City already had their opening night last Friday and continue with a double feature every day this week, but this Thursday, the Yerba Buena Theatre kicks off a noir festival of their own, Mainland Noir. They will be highlighting the crime and murder within several Chinese films. It shares its opening night with this year's SF Indie Fest, which will be taking over several theatres in the city for two weeks. And in non festival related screenings, Winchester opens this Friday, with a special live event taking place Thursday across several theatres. The details? Unknown. But doesn't that just add to the excitement?

Constructed in an incessant twenty-four hour a day, seven day a week mania for decades, it stands seven stories tall and contains hundreds of rooms. To the outsider it looks like a monstrous monument to a disturbed woman's madness. But Sarah is not building for herself, for her niece (Sarah Snook) or for the troubled Doctor Eric Price (Jason Clarke) whom she has summoned to the house. She is building a prison, an asylum for hundreds of vengeful ghosts, and the most terrifying among them have a score to settle with the Winchesters...

Samuel Fuller wrote and directed this lively drama based on the real-life adventures of James Addison Reavis, one of the most ambitious swindlers of the 19th Century. In 1871, Reavis (played by Vincent Price) began hatching an elaborate scheme to claim the Arizona territory (then three decades away from statehood) as his own. At the time, land grants established during Spanish rule of Arizona were still valid, and one rainy evening Reavis visited Pepito Peralta (Vladimir Sokoloff) and his daughter Sofia (Karen Kester) with some exciting news. While working as a real estate clerk, Reavis found documents which granted ownership of nearly the whole of the Arizona territory to one Miguel Peralta, who was named Baron of the new land by Spain's rulers, and as his heir Sofia will become Baroness when she reaches adulthood, giving her claim to the territory.

The script of Night Editor was based on the story "Inside Story" by Scott Littleton, previously dramatized on the Night Editor radio series.

A crusading newspaper editor (motor-mouthed Lee Tracy) gets more than he bargained for when he hires a private dick (tight-lipped Don Castle) to protect him from riled-up gangsters. Featuring one of the greatest flashback set-ups ever, this is as witty and moody as any "B" noir of the era—finally back in circulation thanks to a glorious 35mm restoration funded by the Film Noir Foundation in 2012.

Realizing that all will be lost if they are both captured, the pair quickly make a pact. One will run on foot while the other drives to the roadblock. The one who successfully escapes is to maintain the club and save half the profits for the other. Unlucky Lancaster gets caught and spends 14 years in prison. He spends most of that time angrily dreaming of revenge and soon after his release, he sets out to get it. By this time, Douglas has turned the nightclub into a lucrative venture. Unfortunately for Lancaster, he is unwilling to share in the profits and quickly sets his accountant to doctoring the books to ensure that the vengeful Lancaster gets nothing.

The Accused (1949)

Friday 2nd @ 7:30pm (1hr 41min)

Drama/ Noir/ Thriller (IMDB)

The Accused is a mystery melodrama with a predictable plot involving blackmail, attempted rape and murder. Wilma Tuttle Loretta Young is a school teacher who is assaulted by a student, Bill Perry (Douglas Dick), and, while defending herself, kills him with a tire iron. Frightened, she attempts to make the murder look like an accident. Wilma, despite the fact that she acted in defense, feels increasingly guilty about her actions. Wilma is further conscience stricken when she falls in love with the student's guardian, Warren Ford (Robert Cummings). Despite a good performance by Wendell Corey as a police investigator, The Accused is a rather predictable, routine melodrama, directed without any particular distinction by William Dieterle.

-with-

The Threat (1949)

Friday 2nd @ 9:35pm (1hr 6min)

Crime/ Drama/ Noir (IMDB)

The hapless hostages include detective Michael O'Shea, district attorney Frank Conroy, and nightclub singer Virginia Grey. McGraw makes no secret of his plans to kill O'Shea and Conroy once he has successfully made a getaway; he has other plans for Grey, however, and for a while it seems as though she'll willingly play along with him. The cat-and-mouse game reaches its peak of tension some sixty minutes into this 65-minute thriller. Sparse and unpretentious, The Threat contained far more excitement than many a more expensive, star-studded film noir.

Landmark Clay Theatre

The Overlook Theatre's Top 10 Horror Movies of 2017

And here we are. More than halfway through January, a month I somehow forgot about while booking both the Podcast and planning the Unnamed Footage Festival... But that's not why this month is important. It's important because it's 2018 and I am just now finished with our Top 10 Horror Movies of 2017 list! I do apologize for those of you that have been following The Overlook Theatre into our now 5th year! It's just been a lot busier lately, from the Overlook Hour Podcast to the Unnamed Footage Festival, and attempting to create some steady video content all while trying to wrangle the creatures for a weekly screening!

Excuses aside, it's honestly very tough to create a Top 10 list that pleases every one of these fiends, so this year I didn't even try. I had Math Mage prepare for the most brutal Top 10 list in Overlook history. A list decided by projecting every horror film we could think of from 2017 and everyone debating, manipulating, and yelling to see their favorite films make it to the number 1 spot. Some were excited by the turn-out, most were confused, and a few were just angry. But the numbers don't lie and after everyone wrote a personal Top 10 the mage worked his magic and conjured up the results:

10.) Pheonix Forgotten

Two parts faux-doc, one part found footage, Phoenix Forgotten was a much anticipated film. After a trailer was spotted during a random screening of John Wick 2, Trash became obsessed with learning more. This seemed silly to most of us at the Overlook, until she told us about how no one was talking about it. I think she ultimately found two others on Twitter scouring the web trying to learn more about the film, and coming up empty handed... We still aren't sure what the super early trailer with no buzz and a different name was about but had Blair Witch done better in the box office, I'm sure we would have seen more advertising.

-----------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------
------------------------

9.) Wish Upon

How does a film like Wish Upon make it to our top 10 list of 2017? I'm not sure, it might have been the authentic descent our protagonist goes through, or the fact that Wish Upon is a movie that doesn't do the "careful how you word your wish" crap we're so sick of. Or maybe it's because dumpster diving dads are hot like Sriracha and the Overlook digs on the multiverse... That's probably it.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------

------------------------

8.) The Belko Experiment

A film that will forever be compared to Joe Lynch's Mayhem, James Gunn's The Belko Experiment achieves a much broader range of emotions than one would expect from "The Office meets Battle Royale". Capturing office microcosms and butchering likable characters for maximum effect, The Belko Experiment is one that definitely had the Overlook feeling everything from joy to horror.

-----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------

------------------------

7.) Raw

Raw is a French/Belgium co-production that left a lot of horror fans disappointed. The marketing for this film was something along the lines of "we dare you to watch this" (the Alamo screening we attended came with branded barf bags). So why did Raw make #7 on our list? It's a beautifully shot film that employees a powerful visual narrative, as we watch a girl find herself in college... Not only does Raw have one of the best shot party scenes, it's also got a very adult French rap that rules!

----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------

------------------------

6.) Dark Night

Dark Night is the film I get the most slack for. Technically not a horror film, yet easily the scariest thing I saw in theatres. Simply the fact that it made #6 is a testament to the film's impact, considering only a handful of us saw this film. Tim Sutton's brilliant character exploration is now on Netflix, but I just can't imagine a home viewing feeling as off putting as sitting in a theatre... Still, watch it!

-----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------

------------------------

5.) The Evil Within

Never have I seen a film that could rightfully be called equal parts transcendent and The Room. The Evil Within was a buzz in 2017 as this 15 year project was finally released after director and heir to the cursed Getty's family fortune passed away. Come for the crazy story and stay for stunning visuals. This is a very special film (and I feel bad for saying this, but no pun intended).

-----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------

------------------------

4.) Rift

It's insane to think that the writer/director or Child Eater Erlingur Thoroddsen would follow up his microbudget slashers with Rokkur??? (Rift). Rift is a film about a relationship set in the beautifully barren back drop of Iceland, in a house that has so much character it rivals the Amityville horror, and filmed by a director who knows how to craft a mood. Oh and yes, Erlingur is also a huge horror fan... Keep an eye out for his Don't Look Now homage.  

-----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------

------------------------

3.) IT

Our poster paints an accurate picture or how split some of the creatures were on IT. The ones who loved the second coming of Stephen King however LOVED IT. In our annual debate of the Overlook Top 10, The Impostor was very vocal about how IT should be number one and was noticeably upset after the Math Mage ran the numbers... IT didn't make my Top 10 list but I will say, it's a quick 2h30m watch and that's no small feet feat. 😉

----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------

------------------------

2.) Mother!

If a film lets out and the theatre lobby fills with audience members discussing what they just watched, would you say the film failed or succeeded? This was a debate all across the web after Darren Aronofsky's new film went wide. And I am very proud to say that the Overlook fiends have learned a good film is one that warrants discussion. Honestly it was a bit surreal seeing so many people leave in passionate discussion over something they had just watched (even if 80% of the crowd was traumatized squares).

-----------------------------------------------------------------

----------------------------------------------

------------------------

1.) Get Out

Who knew 1 half of Key and Peele would end up writing/directing one of my favorite films this year, and more importantly the #1 film chosen by the Overlook Theatre to represent horror in 2017!? I don't think Get Out winning the day really surprised anyone; it appeared somewhere on everyone's list, except for The Great Hornito who still hasn't seen it. Dabbles and the Ascendant both placed it at #1 with 6 others putting it at #2. Clearly Jordan Peele had married Horror and Scifi together in a very satisfying way, but the new dialogue about modern race relations was astounding. I'd be amiss not to mention how the theatre came alive when Childish Gambino's blossoming hit played loudly in the Alamo. I think more monsters might have ranked it higher had it not been so openly embraced by the masses, but then again, that's why we have the shouting match scored by the Math Mage!
