It has probably been mentioned but the two Kolchak movies and the series are entirely investigative horror. It’s early 70s and it’s schlocky at times, but it’s also great fun. I have all of it on DVD and it’s a traditional watch every spooky season.

so I had been aware of it for a while now but finally got around to watching the Team Fortress 2 fan film Emesis Blue and it ended up being very effective as a horror film on its own merits and not just as a fan film(not to mention how impressive it looks visually and for how long it is for something made in Source Film Maker which to say is a temperamental program is an understatement), definitely recommend giving it a watch; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0ODG8bFme0

Hollismason posted:Okay so far I've got uh Cast a Deadly Spell, The Mothman Prophecies, Exorcist 3. All rewatches but I'm still looking for investigative horror movies. The Borderlands (aka Final Prayer)!! "After reports of strange phenomena in a rural English church, a team is sent by the Vatican to see if what is happening qualifies as a miracle." Found footage investigation. Good movie!

I remember The Empty Man being an investigation film for like half its runtime. However, I felt that element detracted from the creepy supernatural aspect, and then it spent so long being an investigation film that when it circled back to being a creepy supernatural film, it didn't work anymore. Your mileage may vary.

Heads up, From Beyond and Dagon were added to Shudder recently. I know most people have seen From Beyond by now but it's not always been the most accessible film so it being on Shudder is a good opportunity.

If full skinning is on the table, Pyramid Head just whipping a woman's skin off in a single pull is the high point of that Silent Hill movie.

Imo the silent hill movie is defensible, to a degree. The aesthetic and vibe is very good. Soundtrack is from the games and is good. It's just most of the other stuff. I never saw the 2nd one but I'm cautiously optimistic for the upcoming 3rd

Did anyone say Videodrome? Solid investigation there and the lead being a scumbag makes James Woods’ worminess tolerable.

They're great quality solid wood furniture and I'm happy to have a connection to grandpa and grandma, but... I always wanted a full set of well-maintained Cesca chairs and now I'll never ever have a need to, and that bums me out just a tiny bit. Yknow, these ones, from every single tv show and movie about a family with hip or retro sensibilities:  (Full disclosure, my family had a set of "knockoffs" in the 80s, so it's more that I'm nostalgic for those and find it funny that film has settled on the Cesca as the set dressing of choice. I bought a dogshit pair for like 5 bucks when I moved out that's still in my basement) Phy fucked around with this message at 18:36 on Aug 2, 2023 |

The only chairs I've noticed in a movie are the chairs Francis Dollarhyde had in Manhunter. Where did he get them? His whole house was decorated oddly though, I think he had a giant print of the moon on one wall.

Christopher Landon (director of the Happy Death Day series and Freaky) has been confirmed as the director of Scream VII. I'm kinda into the pick, honestly. The guy clearly loves classic slashers.
