Lots of fun movies in here, and also lots of stuff I've been meaning to watch. Was surprised to see Ghost Town make an appearance. I'd never heard of it until it recently aired on one of the movie channels. I recorded it because I'm always interested in western mash-ups with other genres, particularly horror. The few reviews I browsed were very poor, so it's encouraging to see that you somewhat enjoyed it.
I'm with you on Halloween (2018), although you rate it quite a bit higher. I'm not a fan of the series and I'd likely cite Carpenter's original as the most overrated horror movie ever made, yet I really enjoyed the soft reboot/remake. It felt more intelligent and nuanced than a lot of slashers, and I particularly liked how it examined Laurie Strode's PTSD and the effects it had on her family over the years. I know H20 attempted a similar angle, but much less effectively.
I can see how the dubbing would ruin The House By the Cemetery for people, but for me it only added it to the otherworldly atmosphere --- especially anytime the boy opened his mouth. There were scenes in that movie that made my skin crawl. For instance, the bat scene and the basement scene. The bat is noticeably fake, yet when it's clinging to the dude's hand, Fulci just sticks with the scene and the hysteria so long that it makes me panicky, despite the bat's obvious artificiality. It's similar to the spiders scene from The Beyond. I've still yet to watch Don't Torture a Duckling, but from what I've read of it I think there's a chance it could become my favorite Fulci.
Still yet to subject myself to a Franco film, but it's only a matter of time.
