As you can see, my internet searches revealed that there is indeed a 4th "Invoking" movie, and look, it's called "Halloween Nights"! Perfect to watch on Halloween! Like the second and third movies in this series, it has nothing to do with the first movie, and is instead a collection of spooky short movies that don't look like they're connected to each other, except that they all have something paranormal about them.
This movie opens with a bang. The first story is about a little girl who hears something scary in her closet. The acting is a little rough at times, but it's still pretty cool. The second story again is more of a scary scene than a whole story, but it was still cool and showed one of the scariest things about going on a road trip and pulling over because you have to pee where it's all secluded and there is no bathroom. Yikes!
There's a story that shows us a desperate pregnant woman who probably shouldn't have cheated on her husband (but can you blame her? He's creepy as hell). I have to give credit to one of the stories for being extremely creepy and fucked up. It's gory and gross, and probably close to the worst thing you could watch if you were pregnant. Good lord. I give it credit though for being willing to go so far and show so much. It's definitely the best story in the collection for me. The last one took me forever to realize what was going on, and then once I did, I rolled my eyes into the next century. There's some cool gore, but the actors all sound like they're reading their lines, and after the awesome story that came before, there's no way this will measure up. The first four stories are good, though, so I still ended up enjoying this movie.
