Yeah, Lionsgate is one of the last major horror producers now isn't it? I mean, I imagine something would take the reigns if they went under, but we get few enough good horror movies these days, we don't need even less!

Well it sounds like it could have been a lot worse. Might be worth checking out in the theater for 3D gimmickry.

Pet Rock Band posted:Should I be annoying and call theaters to ask if they have the 3D for the movie this week, or is it a fair assumption that they're all going to have the glasses and be set up? I'd call. The commercial says "2D & 3D IN THEATERS FRIDAY", so it's safe to assume not all theaters will be equipped with whatever 3D wizardry is required.

Found a theater near me that has it in 3D, which was a lot harder than I thought it would be. I'll probably go see it by myself during matinee hours, since all my friends make fun of me for wanting to see it Will report later, of course.

Finally got around to watching His Name Was Jason. It was pretty good, and fun to see some of the on-set stories, but didn't really tell me anything I didn't know. Eh, not a waste of an hour.

ClydeUmney posted:First full look at the new Freddy Krueger design - well, the action figure version: You know, at first I was really unhappy with the new Krueger design, the new trailer, etc. I thought they were trying to make it something it wasn't - the ANoES movies were always bloody fun for me, with the wise-cracking Krueger and the over-the-top deaths. Then I re-watched ANoES 1 a few days ago - while it didn't take itself totally seriously, it was still pretty ahead of its time as far as fright goes, and wasn't as "funny" as I remember the later ones being. If they play their cards right, they could take the idea and make it very very scary.

What is the current king of horror movie web sites? I used to love Bloody Disgusting, but ever since they changed their layout a year or two ago, I haven't liked it as much. I thought I found something great when I came across SlashFilm, but it wasn't what I thought it was going to be edit--- I gave BD another chance; it's not so bad.

I've read a review saying that it was a great "gothic horror" style movie, and I've read a review saying that it was a terribly predictable movie full of badly-placed jump scares. I still want to see it, since I'm practically gay for Benicio del Toro.

Y-Hat posted:After seeing various commercials for The Crazies, I can't get over how blue it is. What is it about blue filters that screams "horror movie?" I think it's the dreamlike quality that the blue filter brings. Personally I prefer non-filtered camerawork, like in the old movies. Oh, nostalgia. Hm, come to think of it, the Nightmare movies all used super heavy duty blue filter in Freddy's dream world. I may be on to something here...

I've just become so disillusioned with the reliance on jump scares - in all horror movies, not just the ANoES remake. They piss me off more than they scare me, really.

The ninth Hellraiser movie, Hellraiser: Revelations comes out next month. Why should anyone care? Well first off, you shouldn't, but this is the first Hellraiser movie to not star Doug Bradley.

The latest I've heard on the remake is that it's starting production late this year, the story will have nothing to do with the original book ("out of respect for Barker's work" or something), and the concept art for Pinhead looks like this:

One of the scary things about Pinhead is that everything about him is so cool and calculated, even the pins stuck in him with amazing precision. This just looks like a crazy person, or something out of Thirteen Ghosts or something.

I literally knew nothing about it, but I felt like it gave away most of the movie. That's a bummer. I'm only about halfway through, but this is seriously one of the funniest movies I've seen this year. I don't care if you know every plot point in the movie, it's damned hilarious.

Dr.Caligari posted:I've been on an anthology kick the past couple nights, and I have to say, I really enjoyed Tales from the Crypt ('72) and Black Sabbath. The final story in Black Sabbath had some creepy images, but more than anything both movies were fun. Any other recommendations for fun, older horror anthologies? (I've seen both Creepshows of course) I'm thinking of viewing Twice told Tales next. If you haven't seen Creepshow, that's something you need to rectify immediately. My favorite anthology.

I tried to watch Lords of Salem, and I couldn't finish it. Maybe I was just tired, but a lot of the scenes just felt contrived and drawn out, with little to no payoff - which seems to be one of the things I find too often in Zombie's work. Devil's Rejects is one of my favorites, but I haven't seen another that I liked as much. Oh well, I'll give the rest of it a go eventually.
