*FEATURED Indie-SHORT*

"Things That Go Bump" by R. Michael McWhorter: Delightful Twist!

HORROR SHORT Summary:

THINGS THAT GO BUMP --  After a long day of moving Megan prepares for her first nights sleep in her new apartment; unaware this place houses a dark secret. Now all that stands between her and a living nightmare is a solitary beam of light.

"What fun! Visually slick with a delightful twist. Well done!" - Clive Barker after watching "Things That Go Bump"

HQ Thoughts: "Well, that was a pleasant surprise! R. Michael McWhorter of Tizzy Entertainment gave Weekend Horror the pleasure to present his short horror- Things That Go Bump for our audience to view and trust me when I say it has an awesome twist!

Horror shorts are a specialty in their own right only because the goal is to capture all of the elements of fear and/or disgust in a very short period of time and with a limited amount of dialogue. TTGB caught every bit of that including a bit of comedy and executed it amazingly!

As the summary states; Megan just moved into her own home and almost immediately she is bothered by a night demon that has something coming for him... Just watch!

We want to thank Mr. McWhorter & Tizzy Ent. for sharing!"

"Journalist Anne Roland explores the disturbing links behind her friend's sudden disappearance, an ominous government research chemical, and a disturbing radio broadcast of unknown origin." ~ Banshee Chapter (2013)

HQ Thoughts: "WHAT A TRIP? I definitely went into this one blind enough to have to watch it twice. Might even make someone else watch it with me for a reason to see it again. It was great!

Anne Roland had a friend disappear rather unceremoniously after having a bad 'reaction' to a secret drug concoction created by none other than the ever so secret CIA.

In first person, we get to see the video with the last recorded remnants of her friend which features a shortwave radio, some crazy weird counting and a music box- I almost lost it! It took me out of character, my TV was on high and I just wasn't ready! I have a thing about voices, music, etc. I was definitely a target audience for this film. lol

She then takes it upon herself to begin doing some digging around that led her to Thomas Blackburn, a connoisseur of government conspiracies and such, and he takes her all the way left where she ends up coming face to face with the horror that it all really is. WOW!

Now, this film is based on true events; the MK-Ultra project which is a well renowned piece of the good ol' US of A history and unfortunately (or fortunately, if you've seen this film) they haven't made the screwed up, deviant, blatantly psychotic details public.

Upon my finishing of this very disturbed and creepy film. I commenced to sleeping with my TV on low just for a little light. I am not that easily swayed but this was original and scary. Give it a shot!"

2006/UK/R/Horror 

"A small town is taken over by an alien plague, turning residents into zombies and all forms of mutant monsters." ~ Slither (2006)



HQ Thoughts: "Just disgusting. This is a hilarious take on a B movie with a huge focus on funny. 

A small town gets hit with a meteorite which releases these little worms like creatures which invades the human body and mutates them into a zombie (but violent/hungry) state.

There are no shortcuts taken here with the directors hitting it right on the mark with the most vile visuals that are bound to interrupt the senses. Zombies are my absolute fave (as mentioned in previous posts) and this movie touched my heart! It definitely doesn't fail to disappoint.

If you can sit through this without wondering WTF a few times, along with some O GOSH(s) down the line, then you are not normal but this will go down in cult history- worth a few watches for sure. I love this film!"

[REC] 3- Genesis: A Marriage Made In Hell!:
(Title LINK is English)
2012/Spain/R/Horror 

"A couple's wedding day turns horrific as some of the guests start showing signs of a strange illness." ~ [REC] 3- Genesis (2012)





HQ Thoughts: "I love zombies, can't get enough of them. The [REC] series has failed to disappoint me since I saw the first installment which was a splitting (yet way more entertaining) version of Quarantine.

Clara and Koldo start off the day with a beautiful family get together as they celebrate their marriage. Things quickly go sour after someone turns up very sick and it spreads super quick.

Nothing too shocking here except for the awesome gore, murder sequences and a killer ending. I absolutely enjoyed since it is fast paced and the subtitles make it even more intriguing (for me, at least).

Here you go for a zombie spin, enjoy! Waiting on the 4th installment of this, can't wait to post!"

2013/USA/R/Horror

"Searching for a missing student, two private investigators break into his house and find collection of VHS tapes. Viewing the horrific contents of each cassette, they realize there may be dark motives behind the student's disappearance."~ V/H/S 2 (2013)



HQ Thoughts: "Well I got the chance to see this a day or so after the 1st installment and boy what a difference. I tried to space it out a bit so it wouldn't be so overwhelming but this one is much better than the first in so many respects yet the first one was quite entertaining for me.

Not taking away from the short stories based on found VHS tapes, this film is a lot more cohesive and understandable, needless to say shocking. 

A college student goes missing and a pair of PI's goes to investigate after breaking into the last known premises he was said to be at. Inside of course they find tapes and begin watching. 

The short stories this time around are extremely creative, face paced and shocking! I personally enjoyed "Ride in the Park" and "Clinical Trials" but "Safe Haven" can easily go down in history as a classic short because it was quick, scary and F'd up! 

Not a disappointment but remember, no spoilers on this site because we expect you to experience it for yourself... ENJOY! (I know you will)"

"Class Is In Session!"

Wasting Away (aka Aaah! Zombies!!!)- Appreciate The Zombies Perspective!!!:
(Title LINK is in English)
2007/USA/R/Horror

"Turning the zombie film on its head, this film is an oddball comedy from the perspective of the brain munching monsters themselves."~ Wasting Away (2007)



HQ Thoughts: "As this would be my first comedy horror submission- I will stress how fucking awesome this movie is. I laughed and cringed and did everything else while I enjoyed myself greatly. 

This film follows a group of friends who eat some tainted ice cream but are unaware of the transformation they encountered. Slowly but surely they all become maneaters and the hilarious part is that THEY DON'T KNOW!!!

So while they are going around doing what they normally do, the outside world only sees the nasty undead and they can't seem to wrap their heads around it.... PLEASE NOTE: The cinematography in this film is amazing, offering 2 different viewpoints and it works to this films advantage.

This movie covers a little of everything and falls a little short at the end but is eventful, gory and funny all at once. Oh and there is even a cool zombie make-out scene that will me you HOLLER! Must Watch!!!"

"Keep It Going For As Long..."


Pontypool: Can You HEAR What's HAPPENING?!:
(Title LINK is English)
2008/Canada/R/Horror 

"A psychological thriller in which a deadly virus infects a small Ontario town." ~ Pontypool (2008)




HQ Thoughts: "I watched this and didn't like it the first time around, so I watched it again and found an appreciation for what the director was aiming to do. Since I have watched all types of horror for years, this didn't come quite as a shock to me as it did others who claim this movie is the best they've ever seen... Trust me it isn't BUT it's also entertaining enough to get through and enjoy for what it's worth.

Grant is a shady radio show host who apparently landed a gig at a station way out of norm for him. Their normal positive day goes awry when reports of protests of some sort were taking place in front of a Dr's office and murders begin to be carried out. 

Amazingly, this entire movie takes place inside of the radio station  with callers reporting what they saw and a complete narration happening from within. With minimal view of anything that is happening, the movie has a way of creating a creepy, tense atmosphere. 

Ultimately, this is a zombie film sans the zombies eating brains, attacking and doing what they do best and the transference of the virus is what got me to thinking... ARE WE ALL ZOMBIES? lol"

REC[2] (2009)<----Click Me 4 Movie!!!

"Gore galore- redeeming myself."


REC[2]: Taking 'Quarantine' to the Next Level:
(Title LINK is in Spanish w/ English subtitles)
2009/Spain/R/Horror 

"The action continues from [Rec], with the medical officer and a SWAT team outfitted with video cameras are sent into the sealed off apartment to control the situation. " ~ REC[2] (2009)






HQ Thoughts: "OK, now this is what I call a heart pounding, effective zombie film. Produced in Spain, the graphics and make-up effects are excellent.

This film is the 2nd installment to the film ([REC]) that inspired the American-jacked 'Quarantine' film, which is the exact same, shot by shot, so no need to blog it- you've probably already watched it. This follow-up is even better and more fulfilling than the first anyways.

It starts off EXACTLY where it ended; girl screaming, getting pulled into the darkness and SWAT coming to check what has come of this once thriving apartment building. The only difference here is that the director had room for originality and you get the full back story and a nasty ass view of the infected. 

No one is off limits in the film. A breath of fresh air for zombie fans like myself and not to mention 3 is out and 4 is on the way... I will be watching."
