DELLAMORTE DELLAMORE: CEMETERY MAN (1994) “I’d give my life to be dead…” From director Michele Soavi (The Church, Stage Fright) comes a macabre masterpiece, 1994’s CEMETERY MAN, also known aptly as DELLAMORTE DELLAMORE (Of Death, Of Love). This Italian-French-German co-production stars British actor Rupert Everett (My Best Friend’s Wedding) as Franceso Dellamorte, a graveyard keeper tasked with putting the dead that rise each night. Despite his gristly job, Dellamorte is a romantic at heart. But is he free to find love, or is fate bound to something far darker? And what does the Angel of Death have to do with all of it? Inspired by Tziano Sclavi’s novel Dellamorte Dellamore and his comic character Dylan Dog (who was visually based on Everett), this film is equal parts scary, comedic, and sexy, with surprising surreal and philosophical developments as the plot develops. A must see film, straight from the cold expanse of Hell to ring in Halloween!

The Shining, 1980 Directed by Stanley Kubrick HE CAME AS THE CARETAKER, BUT THIS HOTEL HAD ITS OWN GUARDIANS - WHO’D BEEN THERE A LONG TIME Though it deviates from Stephen King's novel, Stanley Kubrick's The Shining is a chilling, often baroque journey into madness -- exemplified by an unforgettable turn from Jack Nicholson. Signing a contract, Jack Torrance, a normal writer and former teacher agrees to take care of a hotel which has a long, violent past that puts everyone in the hotel in a nervous situation. While Jack slowly gets more violent and angry of his life, his son, Danny, tries to use a special talent, the "Shining", to inform the people outside about whatever that is going on in the hotel.
