FueledBySatan posted:ROTLD 3 was the first one I saw and is still my favorite. Man, I always forget how wild Brian Yuzna's filmography is. Society to Honey I Shrunk the Kids to ROTLD 3 to, another one of my childhood favorites, The Dentist. I remember not being into The Dentist when it came out but I really need to give it another chance.

To be fair he only has a story credit on Honey I Shrunk the Kids.

As I recall Stuart Gordon and Yuzna brought the film to Disney and Gordon was set to direct and Yuzna produce. But Gordon dropped out and Joe Johnston was hired and it’s hard to imagine they would have made the same film. Obviously the movie is a throwback to B sci fi/horror like the Incredible Shrinking Man and it sounds like Gordon/Yuzna were always planning a Disney kids film and not some kind of typical thing from them. But still. You gotta think things would have felt a bit different.

I don’t if it’s been discussed ITT, but episode 4 of the new season of Black Mirror is some decent horror. If you haven’t watched, don’t read anything about it, don’t look at the episode description, just go into it cold if at all possible.

Black Mirror has like a 10% hit rate for me but the episode from a few years ago with the robot dogs was sick, very good robo horror

I’ll also add, go into episode 5 the same way (unspoiled) It’s some pretty good retro-style horror-comedy.

Chris James 2 posted:This makes me feel glad. I saw 15 things for Sundance this year and this was one of 3 I didn't like, and it wasn't even burnout that had me not feeling it, it was the second film I'd watched at that point I had some mild interest in Run Rabbit Run just for her, but it's growing milder with each tepid review. So I can't speak to any of those horror films, but I did watch Predestination earlier in the week. It's different than I expected given the schlock premise (a time traveling temporal agent hops around the timelines to catch killers before they commit their crimes). It's really all about the characterization and the time travel paradoxes. I didn't realize it was based on a Heinlein story. That being said, Snook is definitely the reason to watch it. Ethan Hawke has top billing, but it feels like she has as much if not more screen time and really anchors the movie.

I watched Rabbit a couple nights ago and it was just boring, tropey bland safe horror. I think they were going for a shock ending but it couldn't have been telegraphed larger if there was a blimp flying around with the ending spelled out

The SHOCKING TWIST wasn't so much a twist as, 'Uhh, yeah, that's what the plot was saying, yep'. Absolutely shameful.

I feel like Silver Bullet is a July 4th movie. Maybe I'm misremembering but I think the fireworks are for July 4th.

The novella is structured where each chapter is a month so it covers a whole year. I don't remember how the movie handles that exactly but yea the firecrackers scene takes place around July 4th.

Yeah, relating the story of how a teenaged girl was beaten, tortured, and murdered horribly isn't exactly fun stuff.

I watched Unwelcome yesterday. Liked it quite a bit. Colm Meaney is great, only complaint is the husband is just too useless/pathetic, it stops being funny and starts being like "I'm ok if he just gets killed" at some point in the bedroom scene.

I have definitely seen all the Insidious movies but I absolutely could not tell you anything about 2 or 3. Also most of what I do remember I'm pretty sure is blended up with the Conjuring movies

Alan Smithee posted:just saw The Blackening. Was a strong premise but kinda fizzled After Knives Out was released there was a big whatever about Apple not allowing the villains to use iPhones. If you knew that going in to the movie then you'd immediately be spoiled on who the killer was going to be. So in the beginning of this movie they hang a giant loving lampshade on CLIFTON IS THE ONLY ANDROID USER IN THE HOUSE HEY EVERYONE LOOK AT CLIFTON HE USES ANDROID.

Somehow I'm only figuring out now despite having seen loving all of both series that Patrick Wilson is the main dude in both of them In my defense, for Insidious I could pretty much give no more than half a crap about the dad, I'm here for Lin Shaye

I don't think he was in the other Insidious movies at least. 2 was Dermot Mulroney or one of those guys and I'm pretty sure 3 was the Lin Shaye send off
