I continued my 'Dead' season last night with the original D.O.T.D. European Version. This shorter than the extended version in the boxset and although not as good it is still the classic that I remember!
10/10
I also watched The School Killer. A modern Spanish effort that borrows from the likes of The Blair Witch Project, Scream and most other 90's slashers. It is starring Paul Nashy (Rojo Sangre) and I must admit to quite enjoying this. Don't get me wrong, the plot is very patchy and as it gets closer to the climax becomes more and more ridiculous, the cast are well annoying (although some of this could be down to interpretaion from the subtitles) but I did enjoy some creepy moments in the film.
It is bascially set in an old abandoned school with a bunch of kids and basically a madman ghost type killer (to avoid spoiler I won't give away any more than this). Paul Naschy is as brutal as ever and so that was why I enjoyed it to be honest - there were some quite good death scenes. Other than that it was basically the same as any other average stupied plot storylines.
6.5/10
