Do we get some Tom Savini motherfucker or do we get a bunch of cheap skeletons from India....hmmmm That does make sense though, I'd forgotten that about older movies...just what a crazy juxtaposition with this movie specifically I'd be honored to be a skeleton in Unfriended 3

He also mused about how India could possibly consistently produce skeletons with perfect teeth. "You know who has perfect teeth? Young people..."

I watched with the zombie subtitles pay month and it was cute but also only mildly funny leaning into cringe. I didn't regret but also don't recommend.

Punkin Spunkin posted:I did think it was funny that Craig T Nelson was skeptical of Zelda at first. To be fair, my read on Zelda’s character in the first poltergeist has always been that she was at least a little bit full of poo poo, not only is she totally wrong about the house being cleansed but her whole affectation leading up to and through the rescue sequence feels like someone who knows just enough to make poo poo up convincingly.

Just watched Occult, thanks to it being MotM and being able to knock out a challenge thread entry for it. It's finally happened, I think I've just converted to being a fellow Shiraishi-head. Guess I need to just dive headlong into Senritsu Kaiki File Kowasugi.

I watched all three The Thingses. The Thing (2011) was quite bad and honestly felt like it completely missed what made the 1981 movie so amazing, and was just a bland generic "monster chases people in the hallways" movie, with laughably bad CGI. Then I discovered the movie guys had actually made REALLY loving GOOD LOOKING practical effects that nail the look and feel of Carpenter's original, and the studio made them paint over the practical effects with loving PS2 level CGI because focus groups thought the practical effects made the movie look old. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3R8ASn25GLg I want to say bad words about these loving idiots. (and also I'm suddenly questioning a lot of the other bad stuff in the movie and wondering how much of it was mandated by the studio)

Also you'll need to squeeze the Occult forest tv series into the senritsu watch. It's like an alt universe with a different actress playing Ichikawa who is flying solo on her investigations. Snooze Cruise posted:Yeah that is apparently where his look in Final Chapter comes from specifically. Its def a mix of the two characters instead of just being the guy from Occult strictly. Aww poo poo I didn't know that, very cool. I just figured the final chapter one was just an alt universe one.

Wasn't even close to Game of Thrones-tier difficult to see poo poo any other point but during the big climax). Liked some of the main cast, would have loved some of the kills if we'd gotten to see more of them/R-rated versions. At least we'll get to see the real thing soon enough: Final Destination Bloodlines filming ends after next week https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Final_Destination:_Bloodlines

Tarot has cool looking ghouls. A Tarot Deck has like 78 cards so it opens it up to at least a dozen sequels because I doubt the film has 78 ghosts. I dream of directing Tarot part 8: In Space in 2035.

Punkin Spunkin posted:Didn't really like Final Chapter tbh. It kinda lost me. Perverted Shiraishi is worst Shiraishi. It's like the kind of stuff I didn't really enjoy about A Record of Sweet Murder, and I loved the first movie. A lot of weird bullshit and callbacks. I like the weird dimensions and effects and Ishikawa Kudo but I'm sorta underwhelmed. Like the whole panty theft sexual assault what the gently caress, Yea, final chapter is probably the worst. Record of a sweet murder tries to lampshade it as the couple's fetish that she wants to gently caress a stranger while her boyfriend watches but come on man RE:Wingard going back to his roots at A24 and The Stewart/Issac/cosmatos news... gently caress yes
