parasite! very different genre to the kinds of films i usually watch but i absolutely loved it. or it actually might've been harry potter and the goblet of fire - slowly working my way through a harry potter runthrough with some uni friends
Today I watched Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. I'm starting to get upset that the last few movies keep cutting some of my favorite characters and story lines. I know they're just side stories and all, but they were important to me.
watched i, tonya on netflix tonight, and i enjoyed it! margot robbie was spectacular as always, and as someone who didn’t know about tonya harding prior to this, i enjoyed learning about her story.
I've been dealing with a health issue for the past couple weeks so, while I still was watching horror movies for my yearly horror movie marathon throughout October, I kind of fell off of reporting them here. I won't bother to go over most of it because that'd be a lot.
From last Friday through to Monday, I watched Sleepaway Camp, Friday the 13th, Friday the 13th Part 2, Friday the 13th Part III 3D, Friday the 13th Part IV: The Final Chapter, Friday the 13th Part V: A New Beginning, and Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives. Those are the only Friday the 13th movies I generally enjoy and bother with each year.

On Tuesday, I watched director David Gordon Green's new film Halloween Kills. The Michael Myers sections with the kills were good as one would hope for, though I found the dialogue and some of the plot elements to be kind of...bleh.
Before bed on Tuesday, I also rewatched John Carpenter and Debra Hill's 1979 movie The Fog. It's one of those movies that I like to watch every October, though I probably ought to remember to watch it on April 21st too since that's when the movie takes place.

Wednesday, yesterday, I rewatched director Joe Dante's 1981 movie The Howling and director John Landis' 1981 movie An American Werewolf in London. Since the full moon began last night, I figured there was no better time this month to put on some werewolf movies. Another pair of movies I like to make time for every October, so yeah.
Tonight I revisited a couple of vampire movies for a double feature: director Joel Schumacher's 1987 movie The Lost Boys and director Tom Holland's 1985 movie Fright Night.
The last movie I saw was Venom 2 in the cinema's. But lately i've been really craving to watch the older classics like Bugs Life and Ice Age, I don't know what it is, but those stick out to me as fun and a good movie to curl up to in the winter.
Yesterday, after hearing about them earlier in the year, I decided to check out director Leigh Janiak's three Fear Street movies that came out on Netflix: Fear Street Part 1: 1994, Fear Street Part 2: 1978, and Fear Street Part 3: 1666. I found them to be an overall enjoyable trilogy of films.
While I definitely loved Goosebumps since I read them while growing up in the 90s, I didn't learn until years later and I was out of the age range for them that R.L. Stine also wrote the Fear Street series of books or that they existed before Goosebumps, so I have no experience with the Fear Street books and can't say how much it relates to the source material or anything. Regardless, had fun.
Today I watched Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. Two more movies to go in the franchise and I'll be done. The plan is to watch both of them next weekend.
