I have seen all except for part 4. I remember part 2 being fairly decent, but over the run of the series, the focus seems to be shifting from storytelling and filmmaking to gore. So I'd say watch part 2 if you feel like it and save the latter three until one of those days when your inner gore hound kicks in.

Incredibly well done ..

there was also a pretty funny incident with a BBQ :)

Banshee Chapter (2013), directed by Blair Erickson.

Pretty good. I've read somewhere that it's loosely based on From Beyond by H.P. Lovecraft and the movie From Beyond (1986). I didn't know that before watching this though. I will have to see it. ::wink::

The Descent (2005), directed by Neil Marshall.

I really liked it. It's dark, claustrophobic and tense.

Thought i had seen this, or at least seen something like it. It was ok. A crew for a paranormal t.v. series gets trapped overnight in an insane asylum. Nothing about the crew was likable so i didnt really care what happened to them.

I enjoyed this one, rewatched it a couple of times. Pretty lurid, though the acting is a little bit cheesy. Have you seen Grave Encounters 2 (2012)? I heard people complaining it's garbage. Well, I must say, I didn't like it either, it's rather mediocre.

Will do.

Inside aka À l'intérieur (2007), directed by Alexandre Bustillo, Julien Maury.

The plot is quite simple, though the movie is really depressing and disturbing. Gory, violent and intense.

Livid (2011), directed by Alexandre Bustillo, Julien Maury.

It's like a dark modern horror fairytale. Quite unique, there's a proper amount of horror and fantasy.

Both movies were directed by Alexandre Bustillo and Julien Maury, French filmmakers. I've read that their influences come from Dario Argento, Roman Polański, Clive Barker and John Carpenter. They debuted with a controversial gory flick and then they were detached to Halloween II (2009), but eventually they left the project. I see they also made Among the Living (2014) and Leatherface (2017). Actually, I'm a little bit reluctant to Leatherface, but maybe I'll see it, out of curiosity.

Cry for the Bad Man, 2019. 7,5/10
