10am showing of Saw X brought out the weirdos. Like 5 other people were in the theater and one guy chose to sit in the first row

I thoroughly enjoyed M3GAN. But I'm in tune with what Gerard Johnstone puts down. In other news, I've got my horror channel up and running for the season and I am settled in. And the first movie to play is Elvira: Mistress of the Dark!  What a wonderful way to start the season

Saw rankings for me Saw Saw X Lol but still. If they can win over a hater who’s seen every movie I’d imagine they could satisfy the fans

A thing I love about the forums is the quickest, best, most thorough answers come from the horror thread. You go over to SAL or something to ask a question, a day later someone will probably answer your question but just as likely you accidentally got the biology* thread arguing about some protein you can’t understand. But the horror thread? You get sixteen different answers, all of them very good, in like 4 minutes. It seems like you even had it ready to copy-paste it from somewhere (the intermittent alphabetization). Hell yeah. *just as an example. Bio thread is lovely. And I treat the linguistics thread like an anti-Functionalist Octagon so I’m in no place to judge.

checkplease posted:Maybe been asked already, but what are the must watch horrors from this year? Spooky season so time to catch up on all the horrors I missed. Checking my Letterboxd to refresh my memory on stuff I loved, outside of the top 10 (Saw X is my top 3 for the year period, def didn't need a refresher for that): Saw X Beau is Afraid Soft Liquid Center* No One Will Save You Enys Men Talk to Me Scream 6 Evil Dead Rise Infinity Pool Project Wolf Hunting M3GAN Beaten to Death The Bigfoot Trap Spoonful of Sugar Brooklyn 45 Divinity* Sick Godless: The Eastfield Exorcism Brightwood Influencer The Passenger El Conde Cobweb Trim Season* Tearsucker We Might Hurt Each Other The Wrath of Becky The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster Malum Unwelcome Huesera: The Bone Woman The Elderly Wintertide* * are stuff I saw in film festivals and am not quite sure got wide release outside of that yet. Beaten to Death, Bigfoot Trap, Brightwood, Tearsucker and We Might Hurt Each Other I saw in festivals and know have gotten VOD releases since

Oh lord, those French folks are at it again. This time they're restoring the first known horror anthology movie, Unheimliche Geschichten (Eerie Tales) from 1919. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/eerie-tales-new-4k-restoration-and-blu-ray#/

I don't think I'd buy it again but if you haven't seen it and you're interested in pre-code horror it's definitely worth checking out.

You couldn't put anything too explicit on screen to avoid offending everyone's delicate sensibilities, but at the same time there were technically no rules so you could also be brutal as gently caress. In Terror Aboard (1933) the killer just shoves a fully awake woman into a freezer then comes back later when she's frozen to death. Also, the meme thread is getting pretty spooky... Kheldarn posted:

Tremors 4 is the only one of those I saw, but it has Billy Drago, so that's enough for my vote

Oh, I also forgot to say -- if anyone needs a horror anthology this year, our boy Koji has Ura Horror (2008), which is a mockumentary of just a series of 'cursed' tapes. It's a lot of fun and it's free on the Internet Archive. It tends to get overlooked in the rest of his catalogue but I love it.
