I SEE YOU-2019-Weird things happen in the house of a family of a detective (Jon Tenney) investigating the disappearance of a local boy that seems to be related to a series of murders committed 15 years prior by a guy who's in jail. Added to this is the detective's wife (Helen Hunt) who recently had an affair and their resentful son (Judah Lewis). Another cop Spitz (Gregory Alan Williams) who worked on the original case helps out. When the wife's lover turns up dead in their house and the son is attacked, it seems someone else is in their house. Flashbacks reveal what's really going. 

Clever plot but slow going. Directed by Adam Randall.

DARK HERITAGE-1989-Investigative reporter Clint Harrison (Mike LaCour) and co-workers Roger (Joe Jennings) and Daryl (Todd Leger) investigate a. haunted house. 2 of them disappear overnight and Clint goes to the police who nearly accuse him of murder. He watches a VHS tape they made but that doesn't help much. Later he meets Jack (Tim Verkaik) and Greg (David Hatcher) and they do some investigating. For some ridiculous reason, instead of driving away when a storm is brewing, they elect to stay in an abandoned camper. When the storm ends Greg winds up dead with a mutilated face. Clint convinces Jack to help him bury the body so he doesn't get into any more trouble. Later they go back to the house and encounter some members of the cursed Dansen family. 

Based on HP Lovecraft's "The Lurking Fear", it has bad acting and moves at a snail's pace. This is the only feature movie directed by David McCormick who was an editor on many films. In 2011, McCormick was involved in a sequel DARKNESS ON DANSEN HILL but that was a short film.

The Red Queen

THE RED QUEEN KILLS SEVEN TIMES--1972-In this Italian production, Evelyn, a dark haired little girl steals her blond haired sister Kitty’s doll. They argue in front of their grandfather and large painting. Evelyn stabs the doll and cuts off it's head. The two tussle but Gramps calms them down and tells them the story behind the painting which depicts the Black Queen killing the Red Queen. Years later Kitty (Barbara Bouchet) accidentally kills Evelyn when they have a fight. The death is covered up by their older sister Franziska (Marina Malfatti) and everyone is told Evelyn went to America.  When a mysterious figure that looks like the Red Queen visits Gramps he dies of fright. Kitty believes it's Evelyn. Later after Grandpa's will is read a sleazy character with a knife threatens Kitty with blackmail saying he knows Evelyn's dead. Kitty’s boss Hans (Bruno Botocci) and top model Lulu (Sybil Danning) go for a drive in the park looking for a prostitute for a threesome. Hans is stabbed to death by the cackling Red Queen. The police release a sketch of the murderer and someone mentions it looks like Evelyn. Then Kitty gets a scary voice-mail from her! Just to make sure she’s dead, the sisters check an underground catacomb where Evelyn's rotting body is. Kitty's married kind of boyfriend Martin (Ugo Pagliai) who becomes her boss is a suspect. He visits his wife Elizabeth at a mental hospital. She says she goes on nightly jaunts with someone named Evelyn and when she gets a knife she’s going to kill Martin!

 Kitty's co-worker Rosemary says she knows who the Red Queen is but is abducted and murdered before she can tell anyone. After Martin and Lulu have sex, Elizabeth is lured to her death by the queen. Circumstantial evidence grows against Martin. Kitty admits to him that she killed Evelyn. Peter the blackmailer gets money from Kitty then rapes her. After it's revealed he’s a druggie, he’s dragged to his death by the red caped murderer who he recognizes as Evelyn. Then while visiting Franziska and her husband Herbert she sees the red murderer and chases her/him. She nearly falls to her death. 

In the confused whack out ending, Martin is stabbed and Kitty nearly drowns in a flood full of rats. The killer (s) are also revealed. Pretty slow going despite some interesting murder scenes. Sybil Danning completists might want to check it out. Director Emilio Miraglia also made THE NIGHT EVELYN CAME OUT OF HER GRAVE.
