Matt Soria's Halloween
I freaking love Halloween, and watching spooky movies. This is a place for me to keep a little record of what my family and I (mostly I) did, watched, and listened to each Halloween.

Matt's notes on The Exorcist:
Matt's notes on Alien:
It's crazy this was made in 1979. There's only two shots that don't look amazing: the ship explosion, and the full body alien at the end. Otherwise everything looks absolutely incredible, and it's genuinely scary.
Matt's notes on Candyman:
Scared the crap out of me when I was a kid and saw a clip from the movie. So cool, and love a Chicago movie.

Matt's notes on Night of the Living Dead:
Matt's notes on Susperia:
My first Giallo movie, and it made a huge impression! I love this one. Plus, a classic soundtrack by Goblin.
Matt's notes on Nosferatu:
Matt's notes on Black Christmas:
I can't believe it took me this long to watch this movie. I was aware of it being credited as the prototype for slashers, but I didn't know much beyond that. I expected to see some slasher DNA, but also assumed it'd be either kind of bland, or just bad. But it was neither of those things! I'm so surprised by how good this was. Great cast of characters, some really creative shots, some genuinely creepy elements, and a whodunit aspect that kept me interested.
Matt's notes on Psycho:
A classic.
Matt's notes on Silence of the Lambs:
One of my all-time favorites.
