yoohoo posted:After Hours isn’t quite what I’m looking for. I guess I probably didn’t need the “less emphasis on horror” amendment, I just meant that I’m not looking for pure horror movies. Sci-fi horror, action horror, something horror adjacent, in an urban setting. Like it’s not a haunted house or a setting where the characters are secluded and alone - the idea of a community having to deal with a crisis if some kind, be it supernatural, an otherworldly entity, government shenanigans etc is more what I’m thinking. Coherence is a nice piece of low budget SF set in surburbia. One of those stories that sets up a simple idea and then let's the implications rip. Horror adjacent but it's in the ballpark

Yeah, I can second Coherence. Fun lil movie. I'd call it like, creepy sci-fi, set in suburbia.

I was pretty disappointed by Vampires vs. the Bronx but I think it fits that theme well and idk maybe some people were way more into it

Miracle Mile deals with an impending nuclear strike during the twilight hours in Downtown LA. It has an amazing vibe to it, one of my all time favs

I second The Hidden, it's an action/sci-fi movie with a body horror aspect that is criminally underrated.

Cool, thanks for the replies. I've seen a good number of those, The Mist most recently. I think that probably embodies what I'm after the most, but I'll check em all out. Obligatory Dredd owns.

yeah as if I'm gonna stick with any of that poo poo with prices goin up. good luck. barely anything on Disney+ that interests me (now that I finally saw Tron Legacy...but it just made me wanna see it in theaters...) other than watching classic Simpsons, and Hulu is just good for a free trial every year lol. only poo poo I'd really pay for would be the Criterion Channel, maybe HBOMax if they weren't so intent on destroying it.

I have kids so D+ is by a wide margin the best value streaming service for us, but if it was just Simpsons and marvel garbage I'd probably drop it too.

I think I'm dropping all the big services. Just gonna keep the niche ones. Shudder is good in my book, and very cheap. Paramount+ now gives me good Stars Trek and therefore it can stay (while LDS and SNW are airing). Might pick up that MST3K one once I drop Netflix. Otherwise ShoutFactoryTV and Tubi get way more play than HBO and Netflix and Hulu in my house these days. The only bad part about dropping them is that my whole family uses my passwords, so I'll feel guilty. Oh well.

The times I've rewatced it, I look forward to the funniest episodes more than anything related to the drama or the plot.

I watched Sopranos for the first time during lockdown like a lot of people and yeah, one of the best parts of it is how hilarious it is. Mad Men definitely cribbed that humor and is one of the many reason why that show also owns.

Sopranos is peak 'prestige drama' Everything after that has always just been an attempt to recapture that lightning in a bottle.
