Overview

Imagine you and your friends are paired up with your favorite dates and the night is very young. There’s an old, dilapidated mansion just down the road a bit, near the deserted graveyard. It would be the perfect place to party… let loose… lose your souls.  What you and your friends don’t know is that inside the house lives an ancient sorcerer, a master of the dark arts. He has sacrificed many to give eternal life to his beloved, comatose bride. Just a few more humans are needed….  The masterful wizard is about to begin another evening of magic… conjuring up a dizzying array of monstrous creatures: hellish lizards, skeletal reapers, demons, zombies, ghosts, lust-crazed muck men, luring hags and spider women, all driven by a blind, killer instinct. Special guests will be treated to an onslaught of twisted supernatural torture until each begs to die!

Viewing Notes

Movie #2 on Day 2. Barely recall a thing about this one from my previous watch so this is a good one to revisit. Here was the hint:

2. Very stupid “monster rally” packed with outrageous creatures and choices that make it obvious its production was a complete disaster (but the movie is super fun!)

Def did not guess correctly. My guess was WAR OF THE GOD MONSTERS Hahahaha

During the screening I purchased the BD bc I love these monsters so much. The premise isn’t great and the actors are terrible but it’s a fun film with practical FX galore. I want to watch the documentaries on the BD about making this disasterpiece.
