Super Not!

 

 (imdb)

THE SUPER-2017-After a woman is terrorized and killed in her apartment, Phil Lodge (Patrick John Flueger), an ex-police widower takes a job as a super in the same place. Another super, Walter (Val Kilmer) is into “Ukrainian psycho voodoo”. Lodge has two weird daughters. Rose (Mattea Conforti), the younger, seems to sense some kind of danger, the other, Violet (Taylor Richardson), is useless. Another super is Julio (Yul Vazquez). Tenants disappear but there's several twists to this story which are OK but the characters talk a little too much and German born director Stephen Rick blows the ending.

Thanks for reading!

Door To Hell

 

 (imdb)

NIGHTWORLD: DOOR TO HELL-2017-Brett Anderson (Jason London; DAZED AND CONFUSED (1993)), an American living in Bulgaria and grieving over the death of his wife, takes a job in a mysterious apartment building where he seems to be monitoring an empty room. He reports to two odd balls Martin & Goron, and Jacob (Robert Englund), a blind man. They seem to be afraid of something in the room. Apparently, the apartment is located on top of one of the 7 gates of Nightworld, the land of the dead. Their gate is guarded by a 150-year-old architect who's ready to die and then the gate will be opened. Jack has several bad dreams and hallucinations including a bloody one while having sex with local gal Zara (Lorina Kamburova; also in LEATHERFACE the same year). The climax is ok but it rips off Fulci. It also has some similarities to THE SENTINEL (1977). It was directed by Chilean born directed Patricio Valladares. Female lead Lorina Kamburova died of complications of CoVid-19 in 2021 at age 29.
