31 Nights of Halloween: The Old Chair

I'm a fan of Drew Daywalt, and I think after this little cautionary tale about deals off Craigslist, you will be too. (If his previous films I've featured here at Terror Titans haven't converted you already.)

31 Nights of Halloween: Skypemare

Halloween is almost here. Here's a chiller with a classic set up--it's Halloween night and a murderous lunatic is on the loose--but with a 21st century twist. I promise this one will creep you out.

Skypemare (2013)

Starring: Cerina Vincent and Annika Marks

Director: John Fitzpatrick

Rating: Ten of Ten Stars

Saturday Scream Queen: Cerina Vincent

Cerina Vincent first found fame as the Yellow Galaxy Ranger in "Power Rangers: Lost Galaxy" (1999), but she soon became a familiar face to horror movie fans.

Vincent can also be seen later today in the 31 Nights of Halloween short "Skypemare". Watch for it at 4:44pm (PST)!

31 Nights of Halloween: Having a Drink

We've all had the kind of day at work where we just want a stiff drink. Fortunately for us, we don't stop in at dumps like Oges Tavern to get it. (This is one of the few werewolf short films I've come across, so I thought it was fitting in include it here during the last few nights before Halloween. The sound is a bit rough and some of the acting a little wooden, but it's still worth watching. Evenmoreso because the obvious twists are not what the filmmakers go with here.)

Having a Drink (2014)
Starring: Ray Besharah, Ellen Manchee, Celine Filion, and Nicolas M. Di Gaetano
Director: Randy Smith
Rating: Five of Ten Stars

31 Nights of Halloween: Hi

Can you feel the chill in the air? The sense of doom as Halloween grows near?

I think the good doctor in tonight's film can...

Hi (2014)

Starring: Monica Gill and Vipassana Kapoor

Director: Bahaish Kapoor
Rating: Seven of Eight Stars

Trivia: Monica Gill, the star of tonight's film, was Miss India of 2013.

31 Nights of Halloween: Selfie From Hell

As the title implies, this is another film that involves cellphones and selfies. It;s a scary one, too!

Selfie From Hell (2015)
Starring: Meelah Adams
Director: Erdal Ceylan
Rating: Nine of Ten Stars

31 Nights of Halloween: Alexia

Tonight's short film uses social media and "memorial pages" as its jump-off point. It's creepy,  and even if it gets a bit muddled at the end, it's a pretty effective little film.

Alexia (2015)
Starring: Sergio Beron and Carla Carruega
Director: Andreas Borghi
Rating: Six of Seven Stars

31 Nights of Halloween: The Last Train Home

Who can you trust in the subway? Especially on the last train of the night?

Director: Scion Griffiths

31 Nights of Halloween: Jack

This is the shortest of all the short films featured during the 31 Nights of Halloween film festival. It's also one of the subtlest. Blink and you'll miss something really creepy....

Jack (2010)
Starring: Abigail Daywalt
Director: Drew Daywalt
Rating: Nine of Ten Stars

31 Night of Halloween: Incarnate

A serial-killing couple go looking for victims in the wrong house... and find something worse than they are. (Writer/director Michael Golderman says that today's film was made in six hours with a three-person crew--and one of said crew also appeared in front of the camera.)

Incarnate (2014)

Starring: Alexis Cassandra and David James Ryan

Director: Michael Goldernman
