Absolutely brutal and awesome so far
Easily best new watch with some of the most gruesome shit I've seen so far.
A+
Hmmmm. I think I concur with it climbing to the top of the pile so far, but I think my grade may lean towards an A.

Def an A for me as well. Idk if id rush to watch it again because its pretty bleak and id have to be in the right mindset for it. But all and all solid

For the Halloween party I'm going to tonight, I've teased that I'm going as a John Carpenter character, and that was the only hint I dropped, so I'm putting all JC movies (other than Halloween, as yeah I'm saving that for Tuesday) that are still horror before the party, sharing on facebook, to keep them guessing lol.

One person guessed correctly (John Trent), thankfully she didn't go public about it.

Digging Up the Marrow was pretty creepy toward the end, and had an authentic feel throughout. Can't say I outright loved it, but I do think it was pretty damn effective for what it was going for.
For my thoughts on the horror films I've seen, please look here: https://jigsawshorrorcorner.wordpress.com/

Was worried it was going the Babadook route, but glad it didn't go the pretentious guilt/abuse metaphor.

Yet. It's still not over, but at least shit's happening.
