Last month Midnightober movies took over, and I made new horror friends on Shudder's #61DaysofHalloween. We watched so many movies, some great, some good, and some that left me blinking in confusion...or laughing. We now return to my normal live-tweet, and this month's movie Tigers are Not Afraid. Time for the return of... My brain rejects the idea of one movie a month, but I might get more done when not glued to the screen. I chose a dark one this month, a heavy topic, but hopefully with a bit of magic to give us hope. For good horror offers hope.[...]

Midnight Society Movie Night
0 Welcome to November! For all those who will be Nano-ing, you might need a break by the end of the month. For everyone else, you also need a night of horror fun. So join me in my live-tweet of Brightburn for... This movie directed by David Yarovesky and written by Brian and Mark Gunn hit theaters earlier this year and gives us a different take on the superhero genre...an anti-superhero, if you will. I watched many Brightburn trailers as I haunted the theater last winter and spring. At first, I was intrigued, but wasn't sure I needed to see it.[...]
It's October and time to announce the choice for Midnight Society Movie Night! Once again, I flipped to Netflix and found a film I haven't seen. Let's watch We Have Always Lived in the Castle. We Have Always Lived in the Castle is a 2018 mystery thriller directed by Stacie Passon and written by Mark Kruger and based on the novel by Shirley Jackson. But you live-tweet horror movies...this does not say horror... Yeah, well. Horror is lots of things, and people keep talking about this movie, which makes me want to watch it. Since, I've[...]
Time to announce that I'll be live-tweeting The Autopsy of Jane Doe for September's... It's everyone's favorite night! I know I have fun. EVERYONE SHALL HAVE FUN. *casts spell* When the time came to post my decision for the movie of the month, I dragged my finger down the spines of my collection of scary DVDs, and nothing screamed for my attention. Sure, many I love, many I have seen numerous times, many I will watch again. But I wanted something I hadn't seen, to disappear into a new story. To escape. I want to watch and be able to react without knowing what[...]
It is time, once again, for Midnight Society Movie Night announcement. Horror movie friends, let's watch The Nun. Let's watch together huddled in the dark, tucked cozy under blankets. Who's bringing the cookies? Popcorn? I posted my thoughts on the 2018 film by James Wan and Gary Dauberman in my previous post. You can read it here! About how I ran to see this movie and left a bit disappointed, and then how I rewatched it (because The Conjuring universe is one of my favorites) and discovered pieces of the puzzle I had missed. So, I need to[...]
I know it's February, but it's always a great time for some trick-or-treating with a bit of murder and mayhem. So this month for Midnight Society Movie Night, join me on Twitter for Halloween! Halloween...a slasher film released October of 2018 written by David Gordon Green, Jeff Fradley, and Danny McBride, and directed by David Gordon Green brings us back to the story of Laurie Strode and what being a survivor means. Remember all those Halloween movies? We all watched them. Well, forget every one except the first, because this movie[...]
This month for our Midnight Society Movie Night, I will live-tweet The Forest. Directed by Jason Zada, written by Ben Ketai, Nick Antosca, and Sarah Cornwell, The Forest, an American supernatural horror film, took the screen in 2016. I didn't see this in the theater, slightly worried I wouldn't like it. Not received well, people didn't have good things to say about the movie. Though when it appeared on DVD, I bought it. Not a favorite movie of some and maybe not my very favorite ever, I enjoyed it. Not incredibly scary, I liked the creepiness, the tone, and t[...]
