Quote-Unquote posted:Ethan Hawke and Julie Delpy discuss their lives together as they crawl through the digestive tract and are slowly dissolving in the bowels of an eldritch horror that ate them after they accidentally summoned it due to a particularly fierce marital spat. This would hands down be the scariest movie ever made to me and I would never watch it

Origami Dali posted:What's are the best scenes from a horror movie that take place in a public restroom? Halloween (2018) has a pretty effective one. I'm a little lukewarm on the movie overall but that gas station sequence is one of the parts that works very well imo. I don't know about best, but this one from The Relic is memorable to me. Would loving hate it if a big green monster yanked me off the toilet like this... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0UBym5z6rgM

Maniac (1980) has an extended sequence in the New York subway that ends up in the public bathroom (which dates the movie quite a bit, but I digress). https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7I6Mf-UPYv4

I just remembered a scene from The Redeemer: Son of Satan (aka Class Reunion Massacre) where a guy in a clown mask drowns someone in the sink of a school and it was kinda intense compared to the rest of the movie.

I love that genre of people trapped in a place with monsters. Zwabu posted:ROTLD: Frank's genial dad humor just makes this movie for me. It's so good. I also like Burt and Ernie a lot too. I love Ernie's concern for the rabid weasels. The central conceit is way more existentially horrifying than other zombie movies too. Given the position, can't say I blame them for wanting those sweet sweet brains.

ROTLD was, until I saw It's Such A Beautiful Day, my pick for scariest horror movie - just because of the zombie on the table giving the most existential reason possible as to why they eat brains. Turns the stomach. It's such a wild, funny film, yet also deeply horrifying all the way until the absolutely grim (and again, hilarious) ending. About to start my thread-mandated watch to celebrate!

Also re public bathroom didn’t The Night Flyer have a pretty scary airport bathroom scene? I feel like there have been many many good horror scenes in public bathrooms because the whole setup with stalls lends itself to either victims or monsters hiding in the stalls. But aside from Candyman not much is jumping to mind right now.

"Bert, yeah we got a little problem" Fun fact : There exists a version of the graveyard dance where Linnea Quigley has pubic hair. However, the producer saw it and said we can't have that so then they had Quigley shave everything off, then they were like "That's worse you can see everything" , then they developed a prosthesis that was flesh colored to cover up her vagina. That's why she looks like a Barbie doll. Hollismason fucked around with this message at 02:44 on Jul 4, 2023 |

For me Return of the Living Dead is the ultimate horror/comedy. The absolute perfect balance of comedy and horror where it's legit scary in certain scenes while also being one of the funniest horror movies out there. I actually think it's the best zombie film ever made.

The Shout Factory UHD of ROTLD is great - I never before paid attention to the inscription above the church door, the names on the graves in the cemetery, or the scribbles on the notes in the office and now you can see them perfectly. The half-zombie puppet looks nastier than ever, too. Very cool way to rewatch this movie.

Shrecknet posted:Speaking of specific places for horror, I made a list of movies where very bad things happen on commercial airlines, since I personally really hate flying. Die Hard 2's crash scene is particularly upsetting for what is otherwise a goofy action trifle. I don't think they thought that part through very well. Driving off as the credits roll over Christmas music was fine in the first movie because they saved all the hostages. But in the 2nd one they do the same thing only there's 200 bodies still smoking on the runway 100 yards away. Hits a bit different IMO.

ROTLD3 is so good, it was one of the first horror films I saw when I was getting seriously into the genre in junior high (late night Canadian TV gave no fucks which was how I saw a lot of stuff in the late 90s).
