THE HAUNTING OF HILL HOUSE

"What would you do?" 

"They'll back me up: it's just wiener-water."

The Haunting Of Hill House is more depressing than scary, but it is still pretty scary. Not as scary as Hereditary or The Exorcist or as disturbing as The Silence Of The Lambs.  Now that I know where the jump-scares are I will watch The Haunting Of Hill House a second time. And I am a glutton for punishment, so I shall queue up Dahmer. You should read My Friend Dahmer a b+w indy recommended to me by my comic book makin' son. 

Elsewhere: Brian Tallerico sez The Haunting Of Hill House is "essential viewing." What's with all the Horror lately? My theory is that Horror is the only genre that actually deals with declining mental health and suicide. Scout Tafoya doesn't like Ari Aster but loves Rob Zombie.
