A lot of the movies from the early 90's have that weird 80's runoff aesthetic that I think gives them a pretty unique look.

Yeah, Frankenhooker is far from a masterpiece, but it's just some pure Henenlotter-rear end Henenlotter. Which means it's still very good.

The people have spoken. And why not? I enjoyed Basket Case and Brain Damage, so I'm definitely up for more weird, perverted Frank Henelotter poo poo. On the list it goes.

Erin M. Fiasco posted:Looking at my list of movies I've rated 4 stars and above alone you have Perfect Blue, Wild Zero, Audition, Misery, Nightbreed, Fire Walk With Me, The Blair Witch Project, Lost Highway, From Dusk Til Dawn, Curse, Darkman, The People Under The Stairs, Tammy & The T-Rex, and Scream, with way more just under that I'd still consider fun and memorable and worth watching. For all the guff the decade gets I really think that when it hit, it delivered. Of course, two of those are restored or director's cuts, but still. These movies may be good, and they may be made in the 90's, but you can't have a 90's brand movie without a morph. Wishmaster, Hellraiser 3, Sleepwalkers, Lawnmower Man, Freddy's Dead and one of the Puppet Master sequels are proper 90's horror. If you don't have a morph you can still be 90's horror if you include at least one ghost who shakes their head back and forth real quick or if a sequel in your franchise goes To The City followed by a sequel that goes To Space.

The 90s just kind of seems kind of meh when compared to the previous decade. On the whole its a pretty decent decade for horror.

I remember watching Frankenhooker at a friend's house in high school in the early 90s, but the strongest memory I have of the film was the box at the video store that had a button you'd push on it and it would play her lines from the movie. Interactive video boxes were such a neat little thing back then.

Shudder is at a cheap enough price point that I don't really mind paying for it even though I very rarely use it. I've mostly been sticking to Tubi because they got some real deep cuts on there and there's a absolute shitload of horror on there that I can usually find something.

I similarly don't use Shudder a lot, but I keep paying for it out of principle. If it were pricier, I might have some heartburn, but I'm OK tossing money on it for the random banger they seem to produce now and again. And for new seasons of Creepshow. It's not like paying for something like Disney+ where I'm just tossing money at some huge corporation, Shudder feels a lot more DIY than its competitors.

No One Will Save You was a good drat movie. Really amazing sound design. Darn good and creepy horror. I can't wait to talk about the ending. I guess I could put it in spoilers. So definitely don't read the next bit. Seriously don't read this unless you've seen the whole thing. Didn't see that coming. She basically gets to be herself in an environment where they've created a perfect world. I guess they think she's perfect as is? ShowTime fucked around with this message at 12:03 on Sep 22, 2023 |

What are the top 3 Saw movies? According to Rotten Tomatoes, the top three are: Saw Saw VI and then Saw II tied with Spiral So Saw X: Better than Spiral!

Deadite posted:What are the top 3 Saw movies? I liked Spiral just fine, so hearing that the new one is considered even better is good to hear. Weirdly, though, I'm a bit miffed that they're just going back to the Tobin Bell Well here; I was hopeful that Spiral was a sign that the series was gonna move away from the John Kramer stuff and start getting weird with the usual signs and signifiers that it had been leaning on to this point, like Billy the Puppet and the pig mask and all that. Oh, also, top 3 from the series ranking goes 1, 6, 3, in that order.

I'll go to bat for at least five of them being good. I'd say the first three are perfect, after that it's splitting hairs on ones I like to varying degrees (outside of the last half hour of 3D which I love. Shame about everything before it though). Only ones I really don't like and don't bother rewatching unless it's for completionist/marathon sake are 5 and Jigsaw Saw: great franchise, only not my fav because Chucky and Evil Dead also exist with at least as many solid entries and without any bad ones

Yea I've enjoyed them all with the exception of Spiral, so if this one is a return to form at least somewhat then I'm sure I'll like it. Chris Rock ruined Spiral for me.

I'm watching Texas Chainsaw (2013) for the first time and this movie is insanely frustrating, because there's clearly seeds of an interesting idea here and there, but then the rest of it is just mediocre trash. Like, a decades-later sequel starting immediately after the first movie? Reusing the footage? I love that poo poo. The first five minutes following the logic of 'what would have happened right after the movie ended'? Hell yeah. But then Alexandra Daddario and a boring cast of characters show up and just sorta fumble their way into redneck horror. poo poo's goofy.
