Baseball Horror Movie Night




Baseball is boring. Let's face it. That's how they sell all that beer. Imagine, however, if the baseball players were murdered in the stadium. It wouldn't even have to be by an opposing player. It could be lions. And why limit it to baseball players. How about, say, Christians? That I would go see.

Well, it's not lions killing baseball players in Blood Games, it's hillbillies. It's not even baseball, they're softball players. So they throw underhand and the ball is bigger. It's not like it's cricket. Imagine if the Rockford Peaches started killing the Kenosha Comets in A League of Their Own, it's kind of like that.

One of those hillbillies is George "Buck" Flower making this his fifth BMN movie.


Massacre Mafia Style
Escape From New York
Mac and Me
They Live
Blood Games

He's always a hillbilly or homeless person, like in Back to the Future.

Blood Games is a good looking movie. I thought for sure that the cinematographer went on to better things but the last thing he did was some Lorenzo Lamas movie from 1994. But hold on! That movie also stars Cole S McKay. The last time I hoped a non-actor in a BMN movie went on to better things it was for the stunt coordinator for Skyscraper, Mr. Cole Mckay!



That's interesting to nobody but me.

So we're back on my planned horror movie trope/movie set at Halloween scheduling. Pick your horror movie trope for Blood Games: slasher, hicksploitation, sexploitation, revenge.

That must mean Murder Party is set at Halloween. The main bad guy is dressed like this:


Baseball. Catch it!

Here's what happened last week:
