I'm assuming yall have already discussed this but the new Children of the Corn was pretty loving rad. The cgi sucked and the adults were pretty one dimensiomal, but the malachi stand in girl in this was really good and it was a mostly a good new twist on the story.

I don't know that I'd outright call the film "good" but it is indeed legit better than over half the franchise. Maybe 3rd or 4th best feature (so top 5 because the Disciples of the Crow short is the best one)

Speaking of things yall should check out, guess what's finally out tomorrow on VOD services?

Looking at their lineup and want to say you should :getin: for Beaten to Death (horror film) when it's available Friday and Sour Party (not horror film) when it's available Sunday. Two of my fav surprises of the year

Beaten to Death is an Aussie film that...gives the game away with its title really. Brutal film about a guy just having the worst luck of people he runs into

Evil Dead Trap would be an absolute blast, 100% recommend if it wasn't for the gratuitous sexual assault. Which is a real shame, because I love almost everything else about it.

Drop some time codes for people so they can skip if they want. Or maybe a “hey at when we get to this part this is where things get iffy”

Good idea.

So Evil Dead Trap on Shudder-the sexual assaults are from 17:21-17:35 and 18:32-19:20 (though really the like minute in between isn't really important) and 32:12-32:45 35:23--38:30 are the real gross and not in a good way bits

Otherwise you get a fun movie that keeps escalating until a wild finale.

So thanks to needing to free up some space in the garage(because we needed room to put up a tent because my sister needs a place to stay) I've got my little 8 inch Sansui combo TV-VCR hooked back up in my room, don't own too many VHS tapes anymore(or really have room for any beyond the like 20 to 30 tapes I've managed to hold onto) so I've nabbed a little HDMI to RCA converter off Amazon and when it gets here in a couple days we'll see how well it works with one of my streaming devices as a sort of ghetto version of those more elaborate setups I've seen people do for using old TV's for watching stuff on

Weekend after-action report:

In The Mouth Of Madness: great movie, love the mindfuck concept. The last time I watched it was back in my drinkin' days and I did not remember half of it.

From Dusk Till Dawn: In a movie full of murderous crooks and evil vampires, the scariest thing in 2023 is Tarantino getting to blatantly indulge in his foot fetish onscreen.

Spoonful of Sugar: just as twisted as I remember it. Between this and Mandy I wish more movies had killers tripping balls on acid.

Have you ever heard of corn politics? Neither have I. Corn... doesn't have politics. They're very... brutal. No compassion, no compromise. We can't trust the corn. I'd like to become the first... corn politician. Y'see, I'd like to, but... I'm afraid, uh...

This reminds me, I have a question to ask about the October thread. I was having some fun finding little gifs to post along with each of the challenges but then I realized that maybe it would be kinda annoying for some people to have like 15 gifs on a single page? Especially considering it's the first page so people might need to go back to reference it?

How much of a thing is that? Would people rather just skip the gifs to avoid loading/data issues? It sounds like a dumb thing to waste time thinking about but I don't want people to be annoyed every time they need to go back and look at the list of challenges.

There's going to be 3 "sets" of challenges, right (brand new, rewatch allowed, meta)? So instead of an individual gif per challenge listing, could you do one gif per set? Then you'd only need 3 on the page, and that might be less painful for people. (Personally, I don't care either way, but if you'd wanted to be respectful of people's bandwidth, that would be an option to keep the fun but limit the pain.)

It's actually two sets of challenges(spoiled if people don't want to know details until the 29th)

A set of individual challenges, with rewatches allowed for all of them

A set of meta challenges, one of which is that you have to watch 6 new-to-you films. The meta challenges can also overlap with any other challenge, so if you plan things out one film can count as completion of multiple challenges

The total # of movies you'd have to watch to complete them all will be as many as 31 but as few as maybe 15ish depending on how much you strategize.
