Satan's little helper.
After years of inactivity, out of the blue a New Jeff Lieberman film turned up on the shelves at work. Lieberman had made some corking films such as Blue sunshine, Just before Dawn and Squirm before seemingly disappearing.
Then suddenly we get an almost perfect little low-budget Halloween movie.
It's Halloween night and a young boy obsessed with a video game satan's little helper, spies a stranger posing a corpse out on a porch, assuming its Satan the little kid decides to be his helper not realising he's a deranged killer on the loose.
SLH offers incredibly well delivered black comedy and a fantastic, dialogue free performance from the actor playing Satan. Plus how many films get to utter the line "jesus is satan!" A must view on halloween for me.
Hell night.
A somewhat neglected 80's classic where a bunch of frat kids stay overnight in a spooky old house only to find out the old stories about it are true. One of the best non exorcist Linda Blair films outside of Savage streets, Hell night does nothing original but does it well. Its a fun and brisk 90 minutes of fun that stands re-watching well.
