Hello everyone, we had a bit of a storm over the weekend so we decided the best way to pass the time would be to frighten the bejesus out of ourselves with a horror marathon.
We made a list of 20 movies, 10 picks each, 5 watched and 5 unwatched, and chose one randomly just before watching. We did cheat once but what’s life without a little naughtiness.

We gathered our snacks and prepared ourselves for hours of terror at 1pm. Over the ensuing hours, my hair got progressively fuzzier (most likely from fear not lying on a fluffy blanket) and himself made no noticeable changes but I’m sure he was shivering with terror on the inside. We took minor breaks for food (and to cower behind the sofa) but we managed to watch 6 movies ending our marathon at midnight with some very bloodshot eyes.
Best Movie of the Night

If you take one thing from this post it’s that you should watch Train to Busan. If you’re a zombie movie fan you should really have watched it already and I’m a bit disappointed in you for not doing so. What are you still doing here?! GO WATCH IT! Well, maybe watch our video first then go watch it 😁

Train to Busan was so dang good! I usually don’t like zombie movies anymore, but I was going to watch this no matter what because Gong Yoo is a sexy mf- but the movie was aaaactually amazing!
What did you think of Tucker & Dale vs Evil? That’s my go-to when I am having a bad day and need a good laugh! 🙂

My wife has a tendency to watch multi episodic programmes she finds on Netflix but I am awfully glad she hasn’t inflicted a horror movie marathon on me as it’s definitely not my favourite genre of film!
