The Exorcist 3 is investigative horror adjacent at the least.

it'll be funny if the strike extends into next year and a24 is the only studio who didn't have to massively stretch out their release schedule

a little late, but isn't one of the Hellraiser sequels an investigator type story?

that would be Hellraiser 7: Deader which is the second-best Hellraiser after the original. It's really good!

That's a wild and intriguing take.

SneakySneaks posted:I'm in a mood for a good investigation horror (supernatural basis, not serial killer like Zodiac, Seven, Memories of Murder, Chaser) after watching Mirrors of all things. Despite being a middle of the road movie, the Esseker stuff hit a sweet spot for me and I'm looking something with a similar creepy vibe, but I think I've seen most of the good/decent ones. I've seen most of the J-Horror Movies (and remakes), Empty Man, Cure for Wellness, A Record of a Sweet Murder, Seance, Incantation, Session 9, Cure. Are there more films along those lines that keep in paranormal?

I watched Infinity Pool this weekend, thought it was really great. Not as good as Possessor but maybe more accessible as far as this sort of movie goes. Mia Goth is so over the top for most of it, arguably too much, but it's a fun performance and she rules.

Hollismason posted:Think I'll watch Excorcist 3 tonight just because I wanna hear the carp story again watching The Exorcist III is always the right move. Every conversation between Kinderman and Dyer is amazing. As is the whole interview sequence with Karras/The Gemini also re: investigative horror, not a movie but if you like to read horror fiction as well then the novel Night Film by Marisha Pessl is super cool, it's about a journalist investigating the suicide of the daughter of a reclusive underground horror filmmaker. e: also Last Days by Brian Evenson is a noir/hard-boiled detective horror novel and it rules gey muckle mowser fucked around with this message at 21:50 on Jul 31, 2023 |

Broadcast Signal Intrusion (2021) is investigative but it’s only okay. it sort of feels like the movie version of an amateur creepypasta set unconvincingly in the 90s that nevertheless has one or two sticky images. I liked it OK though, and unlike a lot of the other biggies most of you prob haven’t seen it! I like Harry Shum Jr. a lot

When you think about it most found footage movies are supernatural investigation movies. So go check out Last Broadcast, Ghostwatch, Blair Witch Project obviously, Yellow Brick Road, could go on for a while

The Mothman Prophecies was just alright. Richard Gere did a good job and the acting was perfectly fine. I wasn't particularly engaged with it though.

Xander B Coolridge posted:I don't count Vast of Night as horror, but I think it's just a fantastic movie. I think my favorite scene was when the screen is just black and you're listening to that guy tell the story. Rewatched it yesterday cause y'all were talking about it, and yeah, this. That and the long oner where Fay keeps calling people on her switchboard and they keep dropping off the network. I never tuned into Art Bell back in the day but I imagine that's what it would have been like on a good night, that sort of mounting paranoia. Driving down some nameless laser-straight prairie road, overcast, with the moon glowing dimly through a break in the clouds. Some poor scared dude spilling his guts on AM radio about the weird poo poo he saw in the Army, and then his call drops. And as the hair stands up on your arms, you realize you're the only thing moving that's bigger than a gopher within like 50 miles, and you start to wonder... What would happen if I got out and looked up and checked? Phy fucked around with this message at 00:45 on Aug 1, 2023 |

exactly that vibe. I remember watching it in the middle of the night and getting creeped out by the ladies story and thinking...holy poo poo, this movie is just people telling stories, showing nothing, and my imagination is going wild and creeping me out. I also adore the score. the feeling it gives me is so weird. It's like creepy, awe inspiring, and haunting and like 10 other things at the same time.

Hey is anyone here artistically minded and could generate some very basic but distinct silohoutte faces of Vincent Price, Peter Cushing, and Christopher lee. Just lines only. No real in depth details I just want like outlines of their faces that you can tell are them ,but its real simple.

Hellraiser Inferno is the same oh he was dead and in Hell/Purgatory the whole time!! we've seen a hundred times. I go for the Period Piece/Space Sequel combo over that any day of the week.
