Viewing Notes

movie 30

Last weekend marked the passing of yet another Music Box of Horrors, the annual 24-hour horror film marathon held at The Music Box Theatre. (as opposed to the The Massacre, Chicago’s other 24-hour horror marathon). The event is a frustrating mix of horror enthusiasts and horror tourists. (tangent ahead) The tourists typically don’t stay very long, laugh at wildly inappropriate moments in films, talk/text during films, and use the marathon as a backdrop for getting drunk/high and annoying their seat neighbors. I love it, and look forward to it, but I do get annoyed. (end tangent) This year featured several classics on 35mm and the Chicago premiere of Sean Byrne’s The Devil’s Candy. Byrne’s last film, The Loved Ones, was pretty damn good. So, I expected this one to be as well. I wasn’t disappointed.
