On the thread's recommendation I just watched Underwater. It was pretty good. The production design was fantastic and the creatures were solid. TJ Miller needed to die way earlier.

Crumps Brother posted:If I'm reading the room correctly it sounds like it might be entirely reasonable to watch the first and last Hell House movies and skip the middle two. Is that true? Nobody is saying anything very glowing about those two and it sounds like the fourth just starts its own thing in an entirely new location. You would not miss anything of value skipping 2 and 3.

Stephen King longs for the days when movies had 5-10 minute scenes of people driving silently.

Franchises have a certain guarantee of funding and audience. A Nightmare on Elm Street 28: Freddy scares kids on the Starship Elm Street is almost certainly going to make back it's budget back just because of the NoES brand.

Rageaholic posted:One of my favorites of 2023 Did you watch theatrical or unrated? There's not a ton of difference. IIRC the unrated version has a few more swears and the deaths are a little gorier. Unrated. I'm guessing it was the original cut and the theatrical cut was just to get it under the pg-13 rating. alf_pogs posted:the toy test chamber being something out of a Cronenberg movie really added a lot I was one hundred percent on the dickhead boss' side after the prototype loving exploded during the demo. What the gently caress was she building into a kids toy where an glitch would cause it to go off like a grenade? 8one6 fucked around with this message at 22:37 on Jan 7, 2024 |

Zwabu posted:So what is the difference when some indies make a found footage movie using a cell phone vs. when Soderbergh shoots a film like Unsane or Side Effects on an iPhone? Why does the Soderbergh film look pretty drat good and the FF look like garbage most of the time? Lighting and sound. Any rear end in a top hat with a camera can just point a camera at some actors and make a movie, but it's immediately obvious that they don't know what they're doing if it's poorly lit or it's relying entirely on the piece of poo poo microphone built into the camera they're using.

At this point I've watched just about all of the FF/POV horror Amazon prime has to offer and it's gotten to the point where I can tell within five minutes if the filmmaker is making a FF movie because it's cheap and easy (it's not actually easy) or if it's actually going to be enjoyable to watch. Framing, sound, having at least thought about the answer to the "why are you still filming" question, etc. A half decent filmmaker will have put some thought into it all beyond "My uncle owns a creepy shack in the woods".

I don’t know if it’s infamous in the UK, but as an American I’d never heard of it. along with it being an ok little piece of horror it was pretty fun to read the whole context of it and also get a nice little slice of 1992. Heck yeah! Ghostwatch is a classic.

I watched Late Night With the Devil yesterday and it ruled! Great performances, solid effects, and really sold the late 70s vibe. I loved the store brand James Randi. Honestly the only real complaint I have was the beginning of the movie has so many production company bumpers I honestly thought they were doing it as a joke.

To be honest right up until the trailer revealed it was a vampire movie I had no interest in Abigail. "Spoiling" the premise of the movie is pretty much the only way to market it.

Extremely minor spoiler I'm tagging so no one can complain He ups to 500k right after the psychic declares that he doesn't need the 100k. No idea on the book title.

Cage was the only reason Renfield was remotely watchable.
