    A bunch of these names sound familiar, but I've only actually seen three (which means I have some homework to do!) Of those:

    Wendigo - I remember enjoying this one, though I don't remember what I did or did not like it. So I guess, sort of forgettable, but a fun watch.
    Pin - Buy this one. It's a really weird one, but it's brilliant.
    Toad Road - this is a tough one. It's not well made, and definitely not a traditional horror movie. The first third is annoying teenagers with a camera clearly trying to be "edgy". But the ending of the movie is eerie in a way that's hard to describe. Ultimately, I really liked it, even though I wouldn't call it a good movie.

    I absolutely loved Tales of Halloween last year, specifically The Night Billy Raised Hell. I watched it with my niece last Halloween and while I wouldn't call it an instant classic or anything like that, it was definitely entertaining enough that I intend to rematch it with her again this year.

    An artist desperate to lose his virginity becomes entangled with a hooker the Starry Wisdom Cult claims is destined to bear Cthulhu's child. I'm told it's a 'so bad its good" movie.

    Very obscure collection you've got there. I love horror movies, and have seen a lot of them, but I haven't seen any of these really besides Dig Two Graves and The Windmill.

    Dig Two Graves is a slow burn, and quite frankly, bore-fest. that said, it's a beautifully shot movie but has a real lack of substance.

    The Windmill is a complete dumpster fire. It's an unimaginative, easily forgettable, interchangeable slasher flick. This one I had to watch over three sittings because I just kept turning it off and doing something else.

    Sad, i was hoping it would be a decent Slasher flick. Come on movie people, decent Slashers arent hard!

    I Am the Pretty Thing That Lives in the House (2017) is on Netflix, so I wouldn't bother buying it. It was alright, very slow burn, but had a few decent scares.

    Couple of Netflix recommendations for you if you haven't watched them yet:
    Patchwork - Felt very much like an homage to Re-animator to me, with some slasher bits thrown in for good measure. Delightful amounts of ham, and manages a fair bit of black comedy that is actually comedic and not just bleak.

    Little Evil - A humorous take on The Omen, not much in the way of laugh out loud funny (for me anyways), but very amusing and light hearted. Comes very close to a feel good movie by the end of it. If you've ever read Good Omens, it very much has a similar feel to that.

    Crom's Devils, but do you have a lot of B-movies there, Bhu.

    I recall seeing Wendigo, which was quite slow and kinda boring. I'd give it a pass, personally.

    I actually watched Tales of Halloween on Oct. 31 a couple years ago. As with most anthologies, it's a mixed bag, with stories ranging from bad to OK to great. The best story is The Ransom of Rusty Rex, a classic "you bit off WAY more than you could chew" story involving a pair of kidnappers.

    I haven't personally seen The Lure, but I do recall hearing from a girl at work who's of east European descent that she wanted to see it. The trailer looked good.

    I started watching Mexico Barbaro one night but never finished it. Again, it's another anthology.

    That sounds good. I'll have to check that out.

    If anyone wants to see Babysitter (on Netflix currently), I recommend trying to avoid any spoilers. Even reading the little summary on Netflix ruins a big mid-movie reveal.

    On the other hand, it seemed pretty mediocre. Some of the aesthetic reminded of Scott Pilgrim (showing items he gathers, like inventory names) but just done a lot more poorly. Still, kinda cool.
