Come Play



Based on Jacob Chase’s horror short "Larry." The short follows the story of a terrifying monster named Larry, who manifests through hi-tech devices, such as smartphones or tablets. The feature version will borrow this angle while centering the story on a troubled young boy who creates the monster from his own nightmares.

Another quiet "theater" release for October in 2020 . . . . . . . but might be one of the better ones.  This movie was very simple.  Didn't go over the top with gore or scares.  Didn't have tons of special effects.   They just did a good enough job of pulling you in and keeping you hooked to the story.  I was very pleasantly surprised by this one.

I would recommend people checking this out.  Its a pretty good thriller with good performances and doesn't go too over the top like most in this genre do now.

Sychronic



Mackie and Dornan will play two New Orleans paramedics whose lives are ripped apart after encountering a series of horrific deaths linked to a designer drug with bizarre, otherworldly effects.

This movie was kind of watchable based on the options that are available during the joyous year of 2020.  I have always been a fan of Anthony Mackie and that is probably the main reason why I was able to kind of enjoy this movie.  If you take him out of this it's pretty much just a jumbled mess.  

I would not really recommend people rushing to watch this.  It's a somewhat decent watch but pretty forgettable I'm sure 10 minutes after I write this.

Spell



A man crash lands in rural Appalachia and awakens in the attic of a traditional Hoodoo practitioner. He desperately tries to break free from her dark magic and save his family from a sinister ritual before the rise of the blood moon.

I really didn't think I would like this movie as much as I did.  It was like Misery meets Ma.  Loretta Devine was creepy as hell as the main baddie.  And Ghost (he might as well legally change his name) did a great job of selling the pain and the confusion about what was going on.   Even if you saw some of the twists coming it was still a very enjoyable watch.

I would definitely recommend people checking this out if they get a chance.  It was a very surprisingly good watch.
