For Halloween: the International Studies Horror Filmfest 2021
This year the library's International Studies Horror Filmfest — our annual Halloween spectacular — is once again offered virtually. The movies are from around the world, but each one is subtitled in English.
Get your snacks in order and prepare to be horrified! If you’ve got creaky floors, or a loud water heater, we won’t judge you for wanting somebody’s hand to hold while you watch.
WATCH AT YOUR LEISURE
The movies are available through Kanopy and Alexander Street streaming movie services, which means you can watch them at your leisure — any day or time. Log in with your U-M credentials.
Let the Right One In — Swedish — 1 hr 54 mins
https://myumi.ch/yKeVR
In this romantic horror film, a bullied 12-year-old boy develops a friendship with a pale, serious young girl who only comes out at night. There was an American remake of this movie, but this is the original.
Bacurau — Portuguese, filmed in Brazil — 2 hrs 11 mins
https://myumi.ch/QAejq
In this thriller mystery, Bacurau — a (fictional) small town in Brazil — disappears from maps and GPS after its elderly matriarch dies. Residents see a UFO-shaped drone flying overhead.
Dead Friend, or The Ghost — Korean — 1 hr 35 mins
https://myumi.ch/r8WV7
This horror film is set in a high school, where a bright young student loses her memory. Her old friends mysteriously die one by one, her memory starts returning, and she investigates.
Dogtooth — Greek — 1 hr 37 mins
https://myumi.ch/jxpRN
In this violent drama, parents keep their three children ignorant of the world outside their fenced compound, keeping them in a perpetual childhood well into adulthood. This movie is definitely 10+ on the vicious scale!
