I’m finally sitting down with Chucky. Season 1 was all right, but I’m nearing the end of S2 now and it is nothing short of a delight.

I liked the first two The Strangers and will probably have at least an okay time with the next three.

What’s funny about Chucky is it’s definitely brought in a new young audience who perhaps wasn’t super familiar with the films outside of osmosis and then getting to season 3 and screaming “Don has lost it! He’s going too far!” Buddy he hasn’t gone far enough I’ll say season 1 is my favorite just because of how many twists it took. Went from a fun little teen horror comedy to the wildest ride through Chucky canon I never expected. I was like cheering when they brought back Nica, Andy, and Kyle. Canon is stupid and yada yada but drat when a franchise sticks to it so much it’s very rewarding and fun

nica andy and kyle being around has been the peak of the series for me, for sure but i'm also excited to find out where you go from blowing up santa and the white house e: also i love when they get fiona to play young charles. she unsurprisingly does an incredible impression of her dad

FoneBone posted:Hot take is that both Strangers movies are good. I’d give the edge to the first, but it’s a YMMV situation because of how very different they are (the first is very nihilistic home-invasion fare; Prey at Night is a straight slasher movie, albeit a pretty good one). I really liked both films, loved the second one Harlin's a competent director, it'll be the same director for all three, and the third one is going to be completely new supposedly, so I'm alternately curious and excited (at least past the first one)

I watched The Coffee Table today based on recent posts. Not a fan. The opener is funny as hell, but the only thing I knew going in to this was "this'll devastate you if you have kids" also meant that after the opener it was really obvious what was going to go down. Having it happen at the twenty minute mark caught me off guard though. But after that the movie just couldn't hold that tension for me. The longer it went the more I ended up annoyed than anything else. And the last twenty minutes I just wasn't even enjoying it. It seemed pretty obvious to me how it was all going to come out with all the talk of "I'll come over with my dog." Then I thought they were going to switch it up because when the dad and brother are talking in the other room there's a shot that's framed so that you can see the baby monitor plan as loving day and the power light is very clearly turned on. OH drat!! jk. That's actually nothing. Apparently it can hear dripping on the floor, but not a whole rear end conversation taking place (it makes me wonder if I blinked and missed a scene of the dad turning down the other monitor or something?). No actually the ending was exactly what you knew it was going to be the whole time. Seriously though, that opening scene is wonderful. I started the movie feeling really good about it. Abigail was fun. gently caress poo poo up, Matilda!

Singapore Sling was one of the weird what the gently caress movies the creepiest person I've ever met recommended to me. I don't know how people find artistic value in it.

M_Sinistrari posted:I'd say it depends. I know some still spoiler the end of Sleepaway Camp even though most of us have seen it because the ending is so standout for the time it came out, but no one spoiler anything Chucky aside from the series. I've only gotten into the horror genre in the last 12 months after avoiding it my entire life (watching midsommar and nope made me realise my definition of what horror actually is needed an update) I've been lurking this thread and putting on recommendations and last night watched Sleepaway camp and holy lol I'm glad people are pretty generous in this thread about not spoiling movies even if they are decades old.

It's great to realize that, no, actually this genre is awesome and varied and has so much to offer. Sleepaway Camp is a complex but fascinating movie to dissect. Sleepaway Camp 2 is a bunch of fun, so if you want something energetic and vicious it's a great time.

Phantom of the Paradise is so loving great. A crying shame it's not more well known. When I have time, I'll post the mask/costume I made for Halloween a few years back.

Phantom of the Paradise is one of those movies I will always recommend if someone asks for more obscure movies they might not have seen, and I've yet to have anyone take that recommendation and not come out loving it.

I want them to have some of the wonder/surprise I had when it was my first watch.

I kinda like Smile. I mean it feels like an American remake of It Follows in the same way as something like Shutter or The Grudge despite both films being American and is kinda dumb. But it's got some good inescapable dread and the actual creature rules even though we barely glimpse it

I dare them to try making any Silent Hill movie without Pyramid Head. https://twitter.com/adsk4/status/1495530138922283008 "But he's the series' icon!" when he was in a single game of the 4 good ones, I'm just sick of the sight of him by now.
