MacheteZombie posted:Riki oh loving owns We really need more horror movies where the protagonist is just as much a monster(in terms of power not morality) as the villains Zwabu posted:Not really horror, but are there any computer games that are good adventure games anymore? My nominations would be What Remains of Edith Finch and Superliminal, also while it does involve shooting I'd definitely recommend SUPERHOT and its sequel MIND CONTROL DELETE

It's more on the puzzle side of things but Return of the Obra Dinn is a must play, and has some spooky elements.

World of Horror rules but it does have a decent amount of combat so it felt like the wrong rec here.

The Horror Thread in Games can give you all the recommendations you need, because your line for "action" may vary. That said, if you want investigative horror I would recommend The Painscreek Killings.

Also on the horror games tangent went and saw Five Nights At Freddy's yesterday, was pretty good overall even if it felt a little like the film couldn't make up its mind on the age group it was aiming for as a horror movie, especially regarding the way they handled the violence and kills in it Did find it interesting that a sizable chunk of dialogue in the film was basically it commenting on fandom theories in a way that's obvious to anyone familiar with that sort of thing while still feeling like natural dialogue

It really goes places and it has real detective work in it. I"ve also heard good things about No One Lives Under the Lighthouse as far as being a good horror mystery. Also, on walnut cake at parties, last bachelor party I was at many people brought drinks and one person brought a breakfast casserole and no one had a meltdown about that and it was appreciated. It was great hangover food the next morning but some fool had it the night before and vomited eggy bits by the pool.

El Dia Del Bestia (1995) is a fun horror comedy about a Catholic priest teaming up with a metalhead to try to sin as much as possible so he can find out the location of the soon to be born antichrist and murder it.

Doltos posted:What's some solid horror comedies? A solid chunk of kiwi horror is horror comedy or horror with a healthy dose of comedy. All of Peter Jackson’s earlier stuff, Black Sheep, Housebound, Night of the Hell Hamsters. There are probably some straight ones, but they’re not coming to mind off hand.

I've just finished Kiyoshi Kurosawa's Sweet home from 1989. Wild tonal change where it starts as a goofy Scooby-doo kind of thing and ends up featuring some of the best goop I've seen this year and an unexpectedly great final monster puppet helped by fantastic lighting and wind effects. It was released alongside a videogame that went on to inspire Resident Evil apparently. It's very different from Kurosawa's other horror films but worth seeing imo. TW for a very dead child.
