Horrorfest was an amazing event. And Unrest was an amazing movie. The huge draw for me in Horrorfest was the movie Gravedancers. After seeing the previews for it I was a goner. I was prepared to spend even money I didn't have to try and go see ALL of the Horrorfest entries. Unfortunately, that's not the way it worked out, and I only got to see three, which I selected as carefully as I could, although I'm sure I missed out on some really good ones. I ultimately went to see Dark Ride, Gravedancers and Unrest, in that order.
Let me tell you, after seeing Gravedancers, I thought nothing at Horrorfest would beat it. But strangely enough, I found Unrest to be even better. I know a lot of you may not agree with me on that, but there was something about Unrest, a "je ne sais quoi" that I can't pinpoint, that had me thinking, "Wow, this is what a horror movie is all about!" Maybe it was the the new faces who also knew how to act, maybe it was the plot, or the fact that they used real cadavers (by the way, guys, is this confirmed or just a merchandising gimmick?), maybe it was the non-gratuitous gore or the gut-wrenching surprise moments, I really don't know. The entire package that is Unrest just works for me, and I hope it will work for you, too! See it and continue to support R-RATED (and for that matter, UNRATED) HORROR MOVIES! I know they'll never be able to make enough good ones for me! Keep 'em coming, loves!

Dark Ride looked like it would be a good one, but don't expect dark, creepy horror when you go see it. There are too many hilarious moments for it to be anything other than yet another movie in the horror-comedy genre, although the execution was right on, which ultimately made it not only tolerable but enjoyable for me, usually a straight-horror type of girl.
Ms. Bogart completely stole the show, in my opinion, as the happening hitchhiker who is about the wackiest, funnest character I've ever seen in a movie of ANY genre, period. She should really look into getting herself more comedic roles, since it seems like she was born to be a comedy star! What great talent and excellent delivery! Her monologue when her character was first introduced in the plot had me in stitches. I was afraid somebody in the theater would throw their popcorn or soda on me, since I couldn't stop laughing even after she had finished that first passage.
Great entertainment, and a refreshing addition to the amazing "2006 Horrorfest - 8 Movies 2 Die 4" event! Watch out for the DVD releases of all the entries, and be sure to purchase them before they're all gone! You won't be sorry AND you'll be supporting R-RATED AND UNRATED HORROR MOVIES. HIP-HIP-HURRAH!

It was unbelievable how much I enjoyed this movie! As the plot summary already reveals, it's basically about ghosts, but those ghosts are about the scariest looking things I've ever seen! Too bad they aren't shown for longer. That's my one major gripe about this film: the ghosts needed more scream... oops, sorry... screen time! Another small gripe is that the filmmakers kind of dropped the ball there at the end with some sloppy special effects, but the entertainment factor for Gravedancers is off the charts, which totally made up for that! Don't miss it! I saw this one at Horrorfest and am already drooling over the possibilities of being able to purchase a complete 2006 Horrorfest DVD box set. I don't know how they're planning to market the DVDs, but anything less than a box set would not do all the awesome entries to this great event justice, plus I'm sure a lot of us didn't get the chance to see all of them at our local theaters.
And please keep supporting R-RATED HORROR MOVIES with your patronage! It actually looks like the movie producers and directors out there are listening to us. The year 2006 was a great year for ADULT horror, and I'm sure that this year it'll just keep getting better!
