I have to admit. I saw The Strangers late and didn't really get all the hype. My buddy I watched it with though was begging me to crash on the couch it spooked him so much. So the series is doing something right at least.

I put off watching Smile until a week or two ago because the trailer made it look terrible. Turns out it's actually not bad

I quite like THE NUN, Vera Farmiga's sister is adorable and it's mostly shot on location.

It has some solid retro Euro-Horror vibes. Its main weakness is that it's part of a cinematic universe and needs to tie into that.

I still need to see the Nun 2. I saw some trailers and thought it looked dumb as poo poo and I needed to check it out but life got in the way

I think for the most part people like that are hoping that the thing they've spent all that time and money preparing for actually happens. They all want to be the Burt Gummer of the situation who shows everyone up by being prepared for something that nobody else was prepared for.

It's possible that the guys who stockpile Bakker Buckets hope that they never actually have to eat that poo poo. But they're definitely not stockpiling guns while hoping that they never have to shoot a scary nonwhite person.

I really didn't like the first Strangers. It was established so early on that the strangers had planed for everything and could get in the house whenever they want and there's absolutely nothing the victims could do to fight back. So the bulk of the movie is just waiting for the strangers to finally decide to kill them for whatever reason.

The sequel was like a direct response to my problem with the first one. The victims can actually fight back and it's an exciting back and forth between the strangers and the chose victims, I liked the sequel a lot.

gently caress a bunker. I hope my rear end gets vaporized or eaten by zombies in my sleep. I'd rather just check out than live through the suck rear end post apocalypse.

Smile is ok. Only the first girl, the patient of the protagonist actually looks creepy/scary smiling. If they could have dragged her out awhile I’d have like it more.

Smiles just one big mental illness metaphor and the only good scare was spoiled in the trailer. They have a neat head in mouth scene but other than that it's pretty meh.

Thanks for the reminder. I made it to that first scene and had to work or something so I never got around to finishing the movie. No idea how I forgot about it for so long.
