803 In the Mouth Of Madness (1995)

 I  actually went to see this at the cinema and remember some hype about this being John Carpenter's return to horror, seven years after They Live. Sam Neill stars as  insurance investigator John Trent , hired by a publisher (Charlton Heston ) to investigate the disappearance of a popular horror author Sutter Cane (Jurgen Prochnow) . Trent  tracks him down to a remote New  England  village but  finds himself  trapped within the world of Kane's latest novel. Although made on a bigger budget, this  has many of the same issues as Prince of Darkness, dislikeable leadsNeill is awful in this), a chorus of generic zombies and   pretensions  towards some higher truth that it can't deliver. It's  also so  reliant on jump scares that they become part of the scenery by the end of the film.

This  was  Julie's last horror film to date.
