Interesting indie horror about a weird backwoods community who worships a pit(!) and The Pit Wants What It Wants! Expected more or a little twist at the end but it played safe with a simple ending.

The Last Will and Testament of Rosalind Leigh (2012)



May be not for everyone but this is another good-spooky indie horror. With a great cast of voice actors, the film primarily focuses on a single character, Leon Leigh who returns to his old house after the death of his estranged mother only to discover that she had been living in a shrine devoted to a mysterious cult. Liked it for its simplicity & eerie atmospheric approach.

I watched Last Will and Testament last night, and also thought it was really well done. The only thing preventing me from totally loving it was that it took a long time for anything to happen, albeit there was plenty of creepiness while waiting. 7/10.

I watched Jug Face about a week ago, and ended up really liking it. It did a great job making me care about the characters, and was weird enough to leave an impression. 8/10.

A couple nights ago I watched:



Beyond the Black Rainbow (2010)

Really strange film. Difficult to classify, but coldly Kubrickian in tone with some retro-sci-fi imagery. Nearly the whole film is nothing more than a string of unsettling audio/visual experiences, but what an experience it is. Very memorable, if you don't mind a really slow burn and an ambiguous storyline (or lack thereof). The final act becomes less surreal, and feels a little out of place, but maybe the director just needed something to actually happen.

8/10 for being a unique and we'll-executed standout.
