The Sunday Watch (39): HAPPY WEIRD THANKSGIVING!

The Sunday Watch is a meme for bloggers in general where you talk about what movies and TV shows you have watched for the week. This is like a weekly wrap up post where you discuss about your week with other bloggers, with discussions about movies, TV shows and shorts being the main attractions of these posts. The goal of this meme is to discuss the various movies and TV shows that bloggers have watched with other bloggers and discuss our opinions on each movie and TV show being talked about. If you haven't watched any movies or TV shows for the week, but you still want to participate in this meme, then you can talk about other things that don't deal with movies and TV shows, like video games, books or whatever personal thing happened in your life. This meme is hosted every Sunday, but you can make these posts anytime of the week and also, if you participate in this meme, please link your Sunday Watch post in the links down below!

#TheSundayWatch

Hey everyone! HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ANYONE WHO CELEBRATES IT! We had a nice Thanksgiving meal and we ate some cheesecake, banana pudding, turkey, ham, neckbones, green beans and collard greens! That's a lot of food we got! I'm definitely getting ready for December, since Christmas is my favorite holiday!

* Oh my goodness! I think that "Weapons" is probably the scariest movie that I have seen this year! I've been looking forward to watching this movie and man, I didn't expect to be this invested in this movie!

(NETFLIX)

* I've been watching this remake for awhile now and I have to say that so far, it's just as good as the original "Ranma 1/2" series!  I'm really enjoying the humor in this series and I love how faithful this series is to the manga!  My only problem with this series so far is that the pacing is a bit too fast and I wish that they slow down a bit with the pacing.

BRUTE 1976 IS AVAILABLE TODAY ON VOD, DIGITAL PLATFORMS FROM CINEPHOBIA RELEASING

WATCH THE TRAILER!

September 30, 2025 - Cinephobia Releasing is proud to announce the release of direct Marcel Walz's (That's A Wrap, Pretty Boy) and writer Joe Knetter's (George A Romero's Twilight of the Dead) latest feature Brute 1976. The film is now available on VOD, digital platforms including Amazon Prime Video, Apple TV, Google Play, Vimeo on Demand and YouTube Movies.

"Brute 1976 is bloody and sexy, with a deranged family so demented they make John Waters's Pink Flamingos look like a paradigm of family values," said Cinephobia President Raymond Murray. "Brute 1976 restored my faith in horror that shocks."

An homage to '70s horror cult classics The Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes. Brute 1976 takes place in 1976, when Raquel and her girlfriend have car trouble and break down on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere. At the same time, a group of people are in the desert for a photoshoot. Soon, they stumble upon an abandoned town where a family of masked psychopaths reside.

"I've always been a huge fan of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre and the Hills Have Eyes, both the originals and the remakes," said Walz. "Brute 1976 was an amazing experience to shoot: It was hot, it was dirty and it was bloody. I'm sure the audience will feel that on screen."

"We are so excited to have Brute 1976, our modern take on the 70s horror films we love so much, in the hands of Cinephobia for its North American release," said Knetter. "We look forward to everyone experiencing the Birdy family in all their gory glory."

Brute 1976 stars Adriane McLean (Miracles of Christmas), Sarah French (Blind), Gigi Gustin (The Retaliators), Dazelle Yvette (Garden of Eden) and Adam Bucci (NCIS: Los Angeles). From production company Neon Noir, Marcel Walz, Joe Knetter and Sarah French produced, with Dirk Schurmann and Tobias Schurman serving as Executive Producers. Robert Kern III (Prey, Creepypasta) provided makeup effects, and Marcus Friedlander (The Getback) served as Director of Photography.

The Sunday Watch (38): HAPPY OCTOBER WEIRDLINGS!

#TheSundayWatch

Hey everyone! HAPPY OCTOBER EVERYONE! Halloween is like my second favorite holiday (behind Christmas) and I'm so happy that it's finally October! I'm planning on watching some horror movies this month, so be on the lookout for some horror movie reviews on this blog soon!

(HBO MAX)

* Finally! I got the chance to watch "Death of a Unicorn" and man, this movie was pretty interesting to watch! The performances were well done and I loved the premise!

(HULU)

* Yay! Another movie based off a Stephen King book! This movie was so much fun to watch and I especially loved the hilarious kills in this movie!
