Cult, masks made of bones, hoods, tunicas, dark wood, old book, equinoctial ritual, bonfire, burning symbols, stupid victims trapped in a house far away from anywhere. . . That doesn't scare anymore. That's horror 101, horror for dummies. The music is so lame too, as a bonus.

Grace is a mystery to herself and others. She longs to know her origin, her family. When she goes back to her Southern birthplace things go sideways and get extra weird. The film was originally going to be called, The Coven, but it is far more aptly titled as, The Long Night. The last 40 minutes take the viewer on an absolute whirlwind. Scout Taylor-Compton gives a great performance in her leading role, and Deborah Kara Unger (from Cronenberg's Crash) has a nice spot as well. The film boasts fantastic art direction and costume design. Although so much happens towards the end, the visual direction from Rich Ragsdale shines all the way through. It's easy to forget that it's a budgeted horror film. The project is ambitious, and it delivers.

This movie hits like a low-budget Suspiria, not that thats necessarily a bad thing! Everything was mostly "good enough", including whatever they shot this with, and most of the acting and scenery, though the scenery is quite limited. The scream of the main actress is kind of annoying, to be brutally honest, and with this being a horror movie you can expect lots of screaming and yelling. The pace at first is quite slow, and a few plot points forgot to connect to anything, for some odd reason. Maybe to pad the length? If you can get past the first chunk of the movie until the horror element shows up, it picks up after that, to various extents. Its pretty good overall, but as stated, everything about this movie was pretty standard fare. Nothing really elevated it to the point it needed, but it was a fun watch, hence my dead-center 5/10. Its worth your time if you have the time and want a creepy horror film with some gore (a smidge of nudity). If you're into occult horror with a bit of hammy acting, this would be worth a lazy Sunday viewing.

The Long Night is finally here! It stars Scout Taylor-Compton who is my favorite actress in the horror genre (alongside Katharine Isabelle). Scout is one of the most authentic people in the industry and you MUST check out her podcast Talk Scary to Me with Danielle Harris! This was directed by Rich Ragsdale who also directed Scout in 2017's Ghost House (which I liked elements of but cliches & obvious stupid character decisions ruined it for me). Rich ups his game here though, with him & the rest of his crew putting together a well made film. I was seriously impressed with the production value they pulled off here, it looked & felt like it was backed by a bigger studio with some surprisingly nice cinematography especially in the earlier portion. The atmosphere was palpable & gloomy, it was easy to get engaged and thus want to see where it goes. Here the two leads played by Scout and Nolan Gerard Funk (who you simultaneously dislike & like) aren't complete bafoons, it's more like they're in an almost inevitable situation & are doing what little they can to make sense of it & survive. Unlike Ghost House, here there's some measure of narrative risk, an unconventional story & character direction that is chosen in the later part of the film that I overall applaud. This is perhaps the best performance of Scout Taylor-Compton's career yet alongside her work in the criminally overlooked Feral and Rob Zombie's Halloween movies of course. I'd argue she conveys the most emotional range ever for herself here though, topping herself as she goes from desperation, to an almost primal rage, unrelentingly fighting within herself & more. She's truly reached a new level as an actor. It's methodically paced & mostly takes place in one location. I love that in horror movies when they are able to pull off that sense of dread & feeling of walls closing in which they do in this fairly well. I would've actually liked to have seen this go on for like 20 minutes longer or perhaps even a Part 2 but either way I appreciate that there wasn't much time wasted. Honestly this could end up being the best horror movie of 2022! Please do rent or buy it on VOD or a streaming service, get the word out for terrific independent artists! I'd rate this about an 8.5/10 but for the IMDb system I'm willing to give it a 9 out of 10!

Following up on a lead, a couple searching for her long-lost family ancestry is led to a remote Southern plantation under the guise of finally finding answers but find themselves the prey of a deadly supernatural cult using her for their demonic savior's rebirth and must try to get away alive. Overall, this was a decent enough if somewhat mildly problematic entry. What works best for this one is the somewhat enjoyable and engaging starting point here to everything. The quest for understanding her family heritage and the unknown nature of what everything means to her gives this a strong start that's highly effective as their desire to understand that leads them into the obvious trap and subsequent threats by the cult. Their imposing nature and deadly powers provide a nice sense of eeriness that goes alongside their ruthless behavior and ultimately dark fate looking to bring a powerful demonic entity into the human realm which makes their encounters together that much more fun. The brutality doled out by their invasion of the house and the shortcuts through which they get the upper hand for their quest make for a deadly time here, resulting in some incredibly chilling scenes as well as some solid bloodshed along the way. These are what hold this one up for the most part. There are some issues to be had with this one. One of the biggest factors here is the rather bland and dull pacing to start this one off as the first half doesn't have much of anything interesting going on. The various scenes of the two going through the community not doing anything to further the plot due to the purposeful dead-ends in their search that are set up to keep them there which is only exacerbated by his tendency to be argumentative and combative with the locals. This is carried over to the rest of the film where he comes off as wholly unlikable and just plain irritating to anyone and everyone around him even when trying to help since he's supposed to be the macho male in charge which just makes this part of the film so tough to get into. The other factor here to get into is the rather unfocused action that transpires with the cult and their powers. Since they're clearly manipulating the events from the start with their ability to force hallucinations, bend the activities of others to their will, and are generally just capable of doing anything, why they're unable to barnstorm the house and take her makes this feel a bit underwhelming. They seem so powerful and in control of what's going on that their halted approach to taking her seems more like a convenience that the characters themselves acknowledge without delving deeper into. This would've gone a long way towards making this do something interesting than just have them stand outside watching them as well. The last issue is the use of several rather obvious and unrealistic cliches that pop up throughout here, making for a rather familiar feel at times involving celestial configurations and black magic that doesn't feel that original. These are the slight issues that hold this one back. Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, and Brief Nudity.
