Creeptastic
Watched Session 9 last night, a disappointment with the exception of a single scene. Although it’s easy to see what they were going for with the prolonged buildup and false sense of normalcy, it didn’t quite make it.
The movie was filmed at the ultimate creepy location, Danvers State Insane Asylun. You would literally have to be an idiot not to be able to glean some spookiness onto film. And yet, the only thing scary about this movie is the structure itself. Abandoned since 1982 this place, is massive and at one time house thousands of patients. Brrr. If you’re into abandoned asylums (and who isn’t?) be sure to check out John Gray’s site and his photos of Essex Sanatorium and Metropolitan State Hospital. Some of these photos give me the shivers just looking at them!
And on the spooky topic, I haven’t seen The Exorcism of Emily Rose yet, but the real story of Anneliese Michel is quite sad.
Lastly, an unrated version of Land of the Dead to be released just in time for Halloween? Or is it just a rumor?
