Horror-ble Movies: 10/13/2014 "Thrill Ride" Around the Corner from the Minds that Brought us "Neighbors"

The comedic minds of Brendan O'Brien and Andrew J. Cohen, writers of "Neighbors" starring Seth Rogen and Zac Efron, will be directing their first feature film, "Thrill Ride." According to FirstShowing.net, the film will center around students at a high school and, unlike "Neighbors," will be more of a dark comedy similar to the "Scream" franchise. Although particular plot details have not yet been released, we do know the generic story arc will revolve around the high school students dying mysteriously at a theme park shortly after it opens. It has been revealed that there will be a sort of "underdog" mentality, wherein the less popular and bullied students work together to survive a killer that seems to mostly be targeting the bullies themselves.

I, for one, enjoyed "Neighbors" immensely and the sound of a dark, horror comedy in a theme park is very appealing. Hopefully, this movie gets the attention (and the budget) it deserves.

The Thing (1982) - This week's screenshot is from the brilliant film "The Thing" from horror mastermind John Carpenter. In this shot, we see the alien sprouting legs and eyes from a severed head that detached itself from its host, after which the head politely stands up and walks out of the room. This was one of the first horror films that made an impression on me when I was younger, particularly in part to this scene. I will never forget the first time I saw that head sprout legs and walk out of the room. This movie is a gem and a classic, not to be confused with that terrible prequel from 2011. They're not even in the same league.
