31 Nights of Halloween: From the Dark

It's a well-known fact that the forests of Hungary are home to co of vampires and packs of werewolves. For this reason alone, they top the list of places to avoid during the 31 Nights of Halloween... which is something the traveler in tonight's excursion into the unexpected learns the hard way.

From the Dark (2020)

Starring: Otto Hadju

Director: Z. Daniel Guzmits

Rating: Eight of Ten Stars


"From the Dark" is the third film from Hungarian writer/director Z. Daniel Guzmits we've featuring during this year's festival of fright, and we will be checking in on his YouTube channel during 2022 to see what other great bits of horror he's cooking up for next October! (We may also put some of his films here before then, as we hope to post on or about the 13th of each month for all of 2022.)

31 Nights of Halloween: Lucky Night

Lucky Night (2020)
Starring: Z. Daniel Guzmits and Orsolya Keleman
Director: Z. Daniel Guzmits
Rating: Nine of Ten Stars

A robber-turned-murderer (Guzmits) is trying to cover his tracks when he discovers he may be in over his head.

Aside from one bit of special effects that could have used a little more work, everything about this short film is perfect. I'm going to leave my comments at that, as the events of "Lucky Night" are best witnessed  by viewers as its main character experiences them. But please click below and watch what is one of the best things you'll see during these 31 Nights of Halloween!

31 Nights of Halloween: Round Hat

Tonight's fright film is a reminder that you should do whatever you can to avoid working late during the 31 Nights of Halloween... and if you can't get out of it, never EVER stay late in the office alone. (You don't want to end up like this poor manbun-sporting fellow.)

Round Hat (2020)
