Spiral: From the Book of Saw
Working in the shadow of an esteemed police veteran, brash Detective Ezekiel “Zeke” Banks and his rookie partner take charge of a grisly investigation into murders that are eerily reminiscent of the city’s gruesome past. Unwittingly entrapped in a deepening mystery, Zeke finds himself at the center of the killer’s morbid game. From TMDB

unlabelledView post →My #Noirvember film #15, Robert Siodmak’s THE SPIRAL STAIRCASE. Mute housemaid is stalked by a serial killer who is terrorising the small town she works in. Incredibly atmospheric, beautifully shot, genuinely suspenseful film that also functions as a proto slasher.

unlabelledView post →TRIVIA: 'Ring 2' is the only entry in the Japanese 'Ring' series that is not based on Koji Suzuki's novel series. This was because the film was produced less than a year after the first film to replace the 'Ring' sequel 'Spiral' which was panned by audiences. (IMDB) 🖤

Seen several good films so far but still have special spots for both THE SPIRAL and INTO THE SKY. One hit me on a funny & dark level I needed & the other is a "curse" film I very much needed in my life.

The story of a family willing to sell their souls in order to appear perfect.

As for me, I wasn't old enough to see em in theaters when they were coming out every year, but I WAS finally old enough when Jigsaw came out and saw that, Spiral and X in theaters. All fun experiences despite varying degrees of quality lol
unlabelledView post →I....sorry I got distracted. I feel an obscure horror movie that deserves some more praise is @adamgreen.bsky.social's Spiral. It was his follow up to Hatchet and it was a much more intense and human horror story.
