Show Notes
Day 3 of 31 Days of Horror and we’re going back to 1974 for Tobe Hooper’s The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. 🎃 I’m talking Leatherface, the absolutely fucked-up dinner-table sequence, the relentless final act and the raw, grimy filmmaking that makes the whole thing feel like something you shouldn’t even be watching. More than 50 years later, I’m asking how the hell a film made on such a small budget can still feel this nasty, chaotic and genuinely disturbing. 31 days. 31 horror movies. Day 3 is The Texas Chain Saw Massacre. 🎬 Watched Rated Reviewed 🎃 Watched Rated Reviewed x LatestBuy Get 5% off selected collections with code WATCHEDRV.

I liked Oasis’s music. I never liked the brothers. Then this documentary made me rethink everything. In this episode of Watched Rated Reviewed, I share why Oasis: Don’t Look Back in Anger earned a 10/10 from its stunning concert footage and archive material to the fans whose love for this band pours through the screen. I talk about the goosebumps of seeing Liam and Noel walk out together, the humour and affection between them, and the community built around songs that have helped people through their hardest days. Plus, massive Oasis fan Marc shares his perspective in a recorded contribution. An honest, sweary review about music, family, and a film that left me smiling. Explicit language.
A murder house. A box of home movies. And a projector that needs to be switched the fuck off. 🎞️ For Day 22 of 31 Days of Horror, I’m revisiting Scott Derrickson’s Sinister — the disturbing supernatural nightmare that makes a grainy family recording feel like something you were never meant to find. I’m talking Ethan Hawke, Ellison’s dangerous obsession, the Super 8 films, the unsettling sound, and Bughuul lurking in the background. From that fucking lawnmower scene to the price Ellison’s family pays for his ambition, this film turns curiosity into a seriously bad decision. My rating: 8/10. 31 days. 31 horror movies. Some home movies should stay in the fucking box. 🎬 Watched Rated Reviewed 🎃 Watched Rated Reviewed x LatestBuy Get 5% off selected collections with code WATCHEDRV.

A frightened boy. A secret nobody understands. And a film that can still break your fucking heart when you know the twist. 👻 For Day 21 of 31 Days of Horror, I’m revisiting M. Night Shyamalan’s The Sixth Sense — the supernatural mystery whose emotional punch deserves just as much attention as its famous ending. I’m talking Bruce Willis, Haley Joel Osment, Toni Collette, the unsettling encounters, and the clues waiting on a rewatch. From Cole’s fear of being misunderstood to that conversation with his mum in the car, this film gives me far more than a clever reveal. My rating: 9/10. 31 days. 31 horror movies. Seeing dead people is terrifying. Carrying it alone is fucking heartbreaking. 🎬 Watched Rated Reviewed 🎃 Watched Rated Reviewed x LatestBuy Get 5% off selected collections with code WATCHEDRV.

An isolated farm. A family falling apart. And a goat I wouldn’t fucking trust. 🐐 For Day 20 of 31 Days of Horror, I’m revisiting Robert Eggers’ The Witch — the slow-burning folk-horror nightmare where faith, fear and suspicion make home feel as dangerous as the woods. I’m talking Anya Taylor-Joy’s Thomasin, the oppressive atmosphere, the period dialogue, and the family’s growing desperation. From the baby’s disappearance to Black Phillip’s unsettling presence, this film lets dread build as every tragedy becomes another accusation. It asks for patience, but watching this household turn against itself got properly under my skin. My rating: 8/10. 31 days. 31 horror movies. Whatever the goat offers, read the fucking small print. 🎬 Watched Rated Reviewed 🎃 Watched Rated Reviewed x LatestBuy Get 5% off selected collections with code WATCHEDRV.

Five friends. A remote cabin. And a basement full of things you should leave the fuck alone. 🩸 For Day 19 of 31 Days of Horror, I’m revisiting Drew Goddard’s The Cabin in the Woods — the twisted horror playground that takes everything you think you know about the genre and uses it against you. I’m talking the sinister control room, the objects in the cellar, Marty questioning everything, and that gloriously chaotic monster-filled finale. From the familiar character types to the people manipulating their choices, this film finds a wicked balance between making me laugh and making me question exactly what I’m laughing at. My rating: 9/10. 31 days. 31 horror movies. If there’s a creepy diary, don’t fucking read it. 🎬 Watched Rated Reviewed 🎃 Watched Rated Reviewed x LatestBuy Get 5% off selected collections with code WATCHEDRV.
