A scary thing happened on the way to the Movie Forums - Horrorcrammers

I actually enjoyed Rituals.

I haven't seen Rituals but it sounds like it's up my alley

I like both Rituals and Evil Dead Trap. Both are quality.

Speaking of things that might be up your alley, have you seen The Northman yet?

I have not seen Rituals, but the people I used to go to horror-fests and exploitation film-fests with often cited it and in a, "this is really good," way. I can't remember what in reference they did that to; but I want to say Deliverance (though the descriptions of the two sound very different outside of annual outdoorsy trip).


I trust their judgement enough to assume it's a legit good movie, and now that I say it, I don't know why I haven't bought a copy of it myself to subject other friends to at some multi-year-off day.

ETA: No love for The Burning?

I have not, but I came across your review the other day. I haven't decided if that's going to be the film that gets me back in a theater yet.

I'm a big fan, and it was one of my favourites when I first started delving into the Video Nasties a few years ago, but it's been a while since I've seen it.


I figured it was a summer camp slasher rather than a pure wilderness slasher so didn't include it in my Official Rankings above, but it's definitely (unless my memory failed me completely) one of the better slashers around.

Yet it’s no The Prowler.

You were the one saying Boo-urning.

Ah, gotcha. Makes sense. The two subgenres sometimes do get close to each other, but I can see the distinct difference.

The mail lady just left me this little delivery.
That's 8 Gamera movies and 4 Yokai movies for those keeping score.

Also I remember there was an argument earlier about those specific movies, so I intend for my Official Rankings to end this rhetorical bloodshed. Leave the violence to the stabby movies.

Be sure to thank the mail lady.

Spook warfare!

Feel free to send them to me when you’re done with them.

I had to get the bargain versions, without all the posters and comic books and whatnot.

I currently have no versions and will accept them just the same.

I mean, should I even bother? I've already seen The Norseman after all. What's the difference?
