From Beyond the Grave - The Film That Will Make You Rethink Shopping at Thrift Stores

Have you ever thought about buying a vintage item and worrying that it might be cursed? No? Well, after watching From Beyond the Grave, you might start thinking twice before haggling with an antique dealer who looks as sinister as Peter Cushing.

This little gem of British horror takes us through an anthology of tales that feel like episodes of The Twilight Zone, but with that unmistakable ‘70s touch—questionable fashion choices, homemade special effects, and actors delivering performances with the enthusiasm of someone paying off a mortgage.

The film follows various customers who, in search of bargains, end up with haunted objects, vengeful spirits, and horrific fates. And the moral of the story? Never cheat a shopkeeper—especially if he looks like a retired Nosferatu.

Between eerie scenes and unintentionally funny moments, From Beyond the Grave is perfect for a vintage movie night—especially with friends ready to crack jokes about the absurdity of the plot. Yes, it’s horror, but with the right mindset, it turns into an accidental comedy.
Recommended for fans of gothic horror and kitsch!

The Omen

1976

The film builds to a crescendo of anxiety and fear without the need for excessive jump scares, thanks to a refined direction and a soundtrack (composed by Jerry Goldsmith) that has become iconic.

Founders Day

2023

Blood, Masks, and… Democracy?! If you thought politics was already scary enough, Founders Day takes electoral terror to a whole new level.

The Addiction

1995

Directed by Abel Ferrara, The Addiction is a vampire film that transcends the confines of the horror genre to explore philosophical and metaphysical themes related to sin, addiction and the nature of evil. Shot in evocative black and white, the film is a visceral meditation on the loss of free will and the corruption of the soul. Ferrara uses vampirism as a metaphor for addiction and self-destruction, recurring themes in his filmography. The film is deeply influenced by existentialist thought and nihilism, with frequent references to philosophers such as Nietzsche and... Read More
