Since I'm on a James Bond roll here, why not a Horror Film starring a different Bond Actor?

Works for me!

As a bonus, this is the Film that John McTiernan did that got him hired for Predator, so it is doubly relevant.

He's...Pierce Brosnan?!?

He has some sort of attack and lunges at the Doctor...before dying.

She (and everyone else) is very confused by this.

She's told that the man's tox screen was clear- no drugs in his system.

The Doc soon thinks that she is on drugs, however, as she starts to see the man's memories in first person!

In the week leading up to this moment, he had moved to Los Angeles with his Wife.

When his Garage is vandalized, he follows the culprits- a ground of nomadic punk rockers in a van.

He becomes obsessed with them, trying to figure out if they're dangerous or just weirdos.

A lone Nun lives inside and she's blind.

Blind Nun/Priest- Take a Shot!

The Nomads eventually meet up with our Heroine after she meets up with Brosnan's Wife.  They're still confused, but eventually sort out the truth.

They go their separate ways.
The End.

Sometimes the spirits you see aren't what you expect them to be.

This is much more of 'What is Going On' Horror Film than one full of real scares.  Well, unless you're scared of Ants...

A Film that seems to either hook people or lose them in the 2nd half.  Personally, I like having actual 'villains' and not just ghosts.

 A small-town mystery by way of The Wonder Years.

This is a Film I've been putting off until it was seasonal, so let's float on in...

He is happily celebrating the last day at School before Halloween when...

Bleh.

He's locked in the Coat Room by 2 bullies.

When spotted, he puts his mask on, but is nearly choked to death.

As he slips in and out of life, he sees a little girl ghost and other strange visions.

What is going on?

Well, he was nearly the next victim in a devastating trend of children killed mysteriously.

No, it's not the white guy and some mockingbirds were harmed in the making of this metaphor.

Is this related to the mysterious Lady in White? 
Given the Title, I would hope so!

To find out what happens, stream it now.

If you mixed a Ghost Story with A Christmas Story, this is basically it.

If you're willing to just get into the Story and Characters, the Film will really hook you.
It's not the best Halloween Film though- don't let me get carried away...

A solid, if underappreciated Ghost Story from the '80s.  Just know that the big moments are spaced out and the Film is lengthy.

 There's nothing like the feeling of unwrapping a DVD and getting a gem.

Today's Film is The Frighteners, Peter Jackson's first big Studio Film for America.  It's a shame that he never made anymore, right?!?

Jokes aside, the Film is historically significant as his pals over at the WETA Workshop needed to up their game for this Film and its many, MANY VFX shots.  They bought more computers and went to work- never once looking back.

The Plot itself involves a man who can see ghosts and then discovers a true danger.  Too bad he's been a conman so long that nobody believes him!

Can he rise to the occasion or will he fail yet again to save a life?

To find out, read on...

The Mom is super paranoid and won't let her leave the House.

At home, she finds out that the woman is connected to a Spree Killing from the 1960s.

This sure won't be important, so why am I bringing it up?

Michael J. Fox plays Frank Bannister.

He will show up and get rid of the poltergeists...for a price.

As it turns out, however, he can see ghosts- like John Astin here- and uses them to scare people into paying him for his services.

He also has a dark backstory involving a dead wife, because, of course he does.

He's also been at this for quite a while, which has angered certain ghosts.

He's more than just a fun Cameo, however, as he will be key to the Plot in Act 3.

A series of strange deaths have been occurring in the last several months.

As it turns out, the real culprit is more, well, of a Ring Wraith.

It's actually Death, but jokes.

Of course, it is not that simple.

He can see the killer spirit, but can't interact with it...unless he temporarily makes himself a ghost first.

Everything builds up to a big showdown at the sight of said killing all of those years ago.

The End.

A really fun Film that showed where a Director was going to go.

Ultimately, The Frighteners is a great Film to enjoy if you're a fan of Jackson, ghosts or both.
Just don't accidentally get the TV Show of the same name by mistake...

Next up, I'll try to squeeze in one more regular Review before the Halloween one.  If so, get ready to howl!  Stay tuned...

 Fate brought my attention to this Comic.
$7.99 brought this Comic into my life.

I might as well share this bizarre oddity with you!

In the 1970s, the Teen Titans weren't selling that well on the newsstands.  The Writer- Bob Haney- was writing weird and wacky NON-SUPERHERO Tales with the Characters in an attempt to be hip.

As such, they fought foes like an evil Sorcerer, Aztec Warriors and demons!
As teased, they must battle an evil, racist ghost from the Civil War!

He takes them to his old Home to see his Aunt before she dies and...

So, look, Bob Haney (seen here) was a 46 year old White Guy when he wrote this.  
As someone who is closer to that than he wants to admit, he probably shouldn't write Stories like this if he's going to write Mal like this.

It leaves no evidence, so he makes a big stink about nobody trusting him.

As it turns out, he's being targeted by the Ghost of a local Slave Catcher, since he bears a more than passing similarity to his last victim.

Robin and Mr. Jupiter realize this and seek out a magic doll to save him...

It was this or call Batman, so...

Wonder Girl tried to pull Mal to safety once, so she's out.
Speedy shot three arrows...that didn't work, so he's out.

It also breaks the ice up so much that the Ghost falls into the icy waters again.

They leave the Doll on the Aunt's grave.
The End.

This was....pretty much what I expected and was hoping for.

Look, I'm trying to find weird and obscure stuff- not all of it will be a Classic...unlike these sweet Records you can get for less than $3

Comics are usually a fun bit of escapism.  In this case, escape to a time where things were...quite different!

 A Film that is apparently to blame for at least one random Horror Film coming out every January.

This is White Noise, a 2005 Film that surprised the Film Industry.
Is it because of the quality?  Well...no, not really.

The Film was a surprise hit- grossing its Budget multiple times over- in a dead zone (not that one) for Film releases.  January was for castoff Films and the required release of Oscar bait Films to be eligible.

Is there more to this one other than the reason that Films like The Boy, Cloverfield and The Bye-Bye Man came out in January?

The Plot involves a man who handles grief by looking into the mystery of ghosts.  Are they hiding in the static we see on a daily basis?  Can they communicate with us?

This was the big American Film for a British Director- who has mostly done Period Pieces and Procedurals since- and it hit big.

To find out if it is good, read on...

He has a kid with his ex-Wife, but now she will too.

That day, he sees her off to work and then waits for her at home that night.

...and waits...and waits...

She's gone long enough to be reported missing and Keaton understandably panics.

The man tells him that his Wife has passed, but is trying to communicate with him from the other side.

He doesn't believe him, of course, and keeps looking.

Finally, the bad news comes in- she's dead, her body found floating in a river by a Factory.

In the ensuing Months, he shifts his focus from work to the study of White Noise, which is the idea that ghosts and spirits can be seen/recorded in static.

He works with the man from earlier- until his mysterious and sudden death- and another woman who studies this.

He sees a vision of a woman in the White Noise and goes to help her.

At the Funeral, he wants to work with the Husband, who very directly denies him.
'My wife believed in this,' he says (paraphrased), 'But I don't!'

Confusion arises as he learns that other recent deaths match names in the massive data log of White Noise recordings...and they also studied it.

The lady working with him is understandably confused when she sees a message from herself!

She's compelled to jump from a third floor balcony, but survives.

He sees a message from his Wife too- she tells him to go!

He gets a vision in the White Noise of the same building where his Wife was found dead by.

The End.

A Film that tries to be two things and I'm not sure if it quite works.

If you're asking me to recommend this one then, I'm...not exactly going to...

Next time, I want to make up for a past sin.  Back in the day, I only reviewed one part of a Horror Anthology...so let me do the rest now.  Stay tuned...

This Film was watched on Thursday.  I just was too damn tired to also Review it.
That said, this one has been in my Queue since I started this Segment!

Here's a treat for you- two Tubi Reviews in one week.

Here is...

Strange things happen.
It all ends badly for him.

It turns out he's the Mayor of a small Town.

After putting this new footage behind a terrible, strobing filter, she ends up falling to her death.

In the present, those related to it are killed.

Will our Professor here be the one to solve the case before everyone in town dies mysteriously?

Well, the Film is pretty much just a series of these Scenes, with flashbacks and filler.

Sigh.

Will Black Annie get her revenge on, well, just about everyone over the age of 40 in this Town?

To find out, stream it now.

I clearly didn't miss out on much after all of this time skipping this one on Tubi.

I don't like to be the angry Reviewer or anything, but...I mean, this one is a bit of dumpster fire...or a completely realistic-looking Church Fire...

A Film that doesn't aspire to be much and, well, it succeeds.  None of it is just that interesting or original- sorry.
