The Freaks are coming back in Paris !


YES you didn't misread....Monsters are coming back in Paris for a MONTH ! We all know that Paris is still one of the most multicultural center in Est Europe BUT i guess program makers tend to forget that in France we LOVE freaky shows, old black and white trash movies : We are Blood-Thirsty !!!

If you need your dose, You totally have to run to the "FORUM DES IMAGES" from 11 December 2013 to  12 January 2014.

 The line up is pretty attractive because they tried to show how monsters have always fascinated people. Yes, even if we see them as circus freak or if we're terrorized we are curious about what they really are !
They decided to present no less than 68 movies from FREAKS,1931 by Tod browning;  THE MAN WHO LAUGHS, 1928 by Paul Leni (Cf  image above) to CARRIE, 1995 by Bryan De Palma or LET THE RIGHT ONE IN,2008 by Tomas Alfredson

And DO NOT try to bring your Little monsters Kids during the freaky Kids weekend organised from 21 to 22 December !
Imagine a weekend with only Monster kids everywhere on screens, day and night !! and don't worry they won't show you any stupid remake of Chucky (the doll). They focus on the sixties, and more specially on remake from the sixties in the 70's Horror movies..

I cant finish my article before  telling you that there are some MUST-SEE projected at the Forum des Images, here is my list :


  • The Fly, 1987 by David Cronenberg
  • Les Révoltés de l'an 2000, 1976 by Narciso Ibanez
  • The Phantom of the Opera, 1925 by Rupert Julian

  1. I was really into horror movies when I was a teenager! Your list of must-see horror movies has intrigued me. I haven't seen the 1925 version of The Phantom of the Opera (it can only be better than the more recent film based on the musical). Being a big David Lynch fan, I must check out 'Labyrinth'.
    Your enthusiasm shows in your posts and I'm sure a lot of people will check out the films you've mentioned!
