Last month, JoBlo Media and Octane Multimedia teamed up to launch a new YouTube channel named JoBlo TV, which hosts multiple feature films to watch for free throughout the week. The genres we’ll be focusing on at JoBlo TV are Action, Horror, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, and Thrillers – but for the month of October, we’re celebrating Halloween all month long with our JoBlotober event.

Blood Myth is one of those awful generic horror movie titles that doesn’t garner any interest from me. But with that said, I know better than to judge a book by its cover, well a film by its title, so as usual went in hoping for the best.

In Blood Myth a journalist goes away with his pregnant fiancé to research a folklore, only for her to quickly go missing. He then goes down a dangerous path on the search for her, It sounds like, and is in large part, a pretty basic mystery thriller. Much of the movie is the lead character searching for leads, talking unsuccessfully to police, finding better information through...

It’s the fest’s most overlooked section with its five offerings, and thankfully we didn’t blink or else we would have missed out on A.J. Edwards’ The Better Angels. This year Guy Maddin leads a half dozen pack of awkward, worldly, hard to categorize cinematic treats.
