Chris Baugh's latest film is some good fucking fun. "Boys From County Hell" is a solid horror/comedy that belongs right up there with "Shaun of the Dead" and "Tucker & Dale vs. Evil." Fight me. #horrorcomedy #HorrorMovies
Horror comedies require a delicate balance, but Baugh totally nails it with a tale of vampire origins (piss off Bram Stoker!) that weaves itself into the importance of history, home, and ancestry. #boysfromcountyhell
One of the reasons I love foreign horror is that it allows me to see what a culture is afraid of & how they deal with that fear. I've noticed a lot of Irish horror is about roots, folklore, ancestry. I'm no expert by any means, but it's telling that this thread is pretty common.
Baugh's 1st feature film was "Bad Day for the Cut," a fucking awesome revenge film (Revenge: It's not just for South Korea) that features a farmer/action hero who can go toe to toe with @mrbobodenkirk 's Hutch Mansell.
Point is, Baugh is experienced at action, and in "Boys From County Hell" he deftly combines that with horror and comedy to give you a (literal) bloody good time. it's on @Shudder right now. (Bonus: John Lynch!)
