Goddamn Netflix Instant Watch can be hit or miss when blind watching a movie. Me and my roommate finish watching Warlock (AWESOME 80s movie about a warlock from the 16th century traveling to modern times to look for Satan's bible which has the name of God that, if spoken backwards aloud, will undo creation and the witch hunter who is after him). Great movie which I've seen a million billion times (the scene with the gypsy still weirds me out) and my roommate never seen it, and he enjoyed it. Then we watch Zombie Death House which I've never seen, but it's directed by John Saxon and it's called motherfucking ZOMBIE DEATH HOUSE, how can it not be anything but awesome? Here's exactly how it can be anything but awesome. No zombies in the first half hour of the movie. Ugly as poo poo lead actor who, surprise! Can't act! When the zombies do show up, they're about as useless as a crappy as the ones from Nightmare City or Hell of the Living Dead. John Saxon's barely in it (maybe he was too busy directing... no wait, the directing is ABSOLUTELY poo poo. Maybe he was too busy doing blow or whatever). The story itself is a guy who drives for this mob boss is framed for a crime he didn't commit and sent to prison where John Saxon is creating super soldiers which end up becoming zombies and killing everyone. Easy enough, yes? Well, the first half hour of the movie is about nothing but these mob guys which has NOTHING AT ALL TO DO WITH THE MOVIE once it moves to the prison story. Then zombies wreck poo poo up, kinda (they never really show the all-out zombie takeover, it's pretty much implied by empty corridors and crappy actors pretending to be scared about zombies). Then the solution to the zombie plague is even more retarded let's drink this antidote that I have in my lab which I completely forgot about! It's just godawful. Now I know why I've never seen or heard about this movie before.

penismightier posted:Is that the one where the guy wants another guy's ring so he bites his finger off. Because when I was little that scene yup, that's it, but you have a few of the details mixed up he cuts off the guy's finger with a kitchen knife to get the ring, then he grabs him by the head and bites his tongue off and spits it on a frying pan.

October's coming up and the theater's in the area are putting up their lineups for their Dusk til Dawn horror movie marathons! Los Angeles, CA New Beverly Cinema- Oct. 9th Featuring Dario Argento's Tenebrae (1982), Lucio Fulci's The Gates of Hell (1980), The Evil (1978), The Giant Claw (1957), Breeders (1986), The Outing (1987) plus a secret movie (?!), vintage trailers & other surprises! I'd go for Tenebrae and Gates of Hell, but the other movies are just whatever. I wonder what the secret movie is, last year I think it was Story of Ricky (although that may have been the secret movie for the Edgar Wright Filmfest). They're also showing a couple other great double features leading up to, and past, the marathon, including Sept. 29/30 Best Worst Movie/Troll 2 (Best Worst Movie is the doc about Troll 2) Oct. 19 The Clonus Horror/Clones Oct. 20/21 Orphan/Seed of Chucky Oct. 29/30 Trick R Treat/Halloween 3 Plus a poo poo load of other movies. Full calender is here. http://newbevcinema.com/calendar.cfm The Aero Theater- Oct. 30th 7:30 PM 5th Annual Dusk-to-Dawn Horrorthon: Fright Night, Don't Look In The Basement, Candyman, Bloody Birthday, Phantasm and Cemetary Man This one looks a lot more fun, but what a terrible day to have it on. If Candyman, Fright Night and Cemetary Man are later shows, I'll probably hit those up after I'm good and loaded. The Silent Movie Theater's not doing any marathons, but they are screening a poo poo load of great horror movies throughout the month including Oct. 1st Christine/Carrie Oct. 3rd Pet Semetary/Pet Semetary 2 Oct. 7th Deep Red/Opera (Argento baby!) Oct. 15th House of the Devil/Dead Alive Oct. 16th BLACK DEVIL DOLL FROM HELL  Full schedule for the Silent Movie theater is here. http://www.cinefamily.org/calendar/index.html The Egyptian's full Oct. schedule hasn't been put up yet, but they just finished a mini-Carpenter fest (They Live, Big Trouble, Thing and Halloween). The Fairfax Theater is closed down, so no fun there anymore.  And even though I don't live there anymore, the Music Box in Chicago put up their horror marathon schedule as well http://www.musicboxtheatre.com/collections/music-box-massacre-6/ Phantom of the Opera (Lon Chaney Sr. accompanied by Dennis Scott at the Music Box Organ) The Raven (Boris Karloff & Bela Lugosi) The Wolf Man (Lon Chaney Jr.) Psycho (50th Anniversary!) Killer Klowns From Outer Space (with the Chiodo Brothers in Person!) Rabid (David Cronenberg) Pet Sematary The Funhouse (Tobe Hooper) Theater of Blood (Vincent Price) The House By The Cemetery (Lucio Fulci) Fright Night (80’s Awesomeness!) Looks pretty fun! Anyone else doing anything like this or know of anything like it in your area?

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:I would kill to see Fulci/Argento on the big screen, ditto Black Devil Doll From Hell, assuming its the original and not the lame remake. It is. Black Devil Doll is so loving god-awful, the only reason I'm going to go see it is to make my roommate watch it (he's never seen it before). I own an old used VHS copy of it, but the problem with that is it's so bad, I know if we watch it at the house, he'll just turn it off, or play with his iphone or whatever, but being trapped in a theater with it being projected on a 50-foot screen..... yes.

That looks nothing like Jerry Dandridge, they should've drawn him eating an apple or something. As is, he looks more like Sam Neill than Chris Sarandon (except for the jacket/scarf).

I heard Collin Farrell's attached to this as well. It's like Collin's been flipping through the big book of movies that influenced ruddiger's youth and just started making GBS threads all over it (loving Fright Night remake looks like garbage too).

Rogue1-and-a-half posted:I loved Deer Woman. The bit where the cop imagines all the different scenarios was epically brilliant. It was helped somewhat in my mind by the fact that I live in Oklahoma and am a Native American; I know people who actually believe in the Deer Woman - I know one dude who says he saw her once. So, it was great to get an hour of pretty great television about something that feels that close to me. The best part about Deer Woman was that it was directed by John Landis and he was able to sneak an American Werewolf in London reference in one of the scenes.

loving Ving Rhames, I was flipping through Netflix and noticed Rhames is in yet another zombie movie, Zombie Apocalypse, made by Asylum Films (yes, THAT Asylum). Despite the terrible effects and worse acting, it's actually pretty enjoyable for what it is, and some of the dialogue and sequences are a little too clever for an Asylum picture (using airhorns as zombie distraction grenades, arrows vs. guns argument, etc.), but redeems itself by the end with a fantastically terrible cgi zombie-tiger fighting scene. As far as Ving Rhames zombie movies, it's maybe a little better than the Ving Rhames Day of the Dead remake, but nowhere near as good as the Ving Rhames Dawn of the Dead remake.

Sporadic posted:Tales From The Dark Side received a full DVD release. Although some people freaked out because they subbed some of the music out instead of paying the royalties. This show used to scare the absolute poo poo out of me when I was a kid ("MAN LIVES... in a sunlit world he believes to be REALITY..." that opening was terrifying). Now I sometimes catch an episode in the morning on Chiller before heading to work and can't help but think, 8 year old ruddiger must have been a HUGE pussy.

Xandoom posted:Bit of an odd request but what are some good necrophilia movies? Nekromantik and it's sequel are... well, they're movies that have what you're looking for. There's also this Spanish short film called Aftermath that is pretty much just a half hour movie about a mortician who fucks a corpse. I had the (mis?)fortune of getting the chance to see it in a theater during a dusk til dawn Halloween screening. The reactions of people seeing it for the first time were pretty hilarious. It used to be on Netflix but I just checked and it seems they don't have it anymore. E: oh jeez didn't realize I was replying to a question from two pages ago. At least we're still on necrophilia chat so I'm not the only weirdo.

Went and saw the new Troma flick Return to Nuke em High vol. 1 and holy hell was that a fun movie. If you liked their last few outings (poultrygeist, toxie 5, terror firmer), you'll enjoy this. I'm surprised this isn't getting more word of mouth. Lloyd Kaufman's been making independent movies for nearly 40 years and doesn't look like he's slowing down at all. His movies are akin to watching a one man juggling harmonica-player who's also playing fiddle with his feet lose control of his bowls unmercifully on stage, but still finishes his set. I can't wait for vol. 2.

The Senator Giroux posted:Henry is one of my favorite horror films. I would never say it is fun, but it's really well made and probably one of the more realistic takes on serial killers. It's super bleak though, which makes sense. The bold part really needs to be stressed. The movie's about as much fun as a brick in the face, but holy poo poo is it a compelling movie. Also, for anthologies, it seems Nightmares always falls to the wayside, probably for the best because two of the segments straight up suck dick, but the Emilio Estevez "Bishop of Battle" segment is pretty loving awesome, if you like "kid fights video games BUT IN REAL LIFE" scenarios.

Million Ghosts posted:Finally got to see As Above, So Below and it was fuckin' sick. It didn't do anything really groundbreaking, but I liked that the chracters were pretty competent and resourceful. Some of the caving bits got me in the same way as The Descent and it felt pretty tense overall. Plus I loved the ending, the whole rectification thing and the visual of them coming through the manhole into mirror Paris was great. Agreed, although, I half expected to see an undead Parisian pedestrian casually walk past them as they emerged from the manhole, and that they did indeed end up in hell, which turns out to be just a mirror world to ours. Glad they didn't do that. Would've been cheesy as hell and too twilight zone-ish.

Ariza posted:Poultrygeist is literally the only movie my wife stopped watching in our long time together. She even continued watching The ABC's of Death all the way through and every Troma movie I've thrown her way. Does it ever get better? My favorite Troma is still Terror Firmer if that makes a difference. I'm still not sure how I feel about Return to Nuke 'Em High Vol. 1. It's got the titties and the gore, but man, Troma movies should NOT be shot on the loving RED camera. Also, the random background ADR'd lines really stick out. What used to be my favorite little bits in Troma movies (the "Oh my god, he's got an afro!" line from Terror Firmer is still one of the best) became really distracting and outright lazy in Nuke 'Em High. That being, said, the two female leads in that movie are crazy hot and Gene is easily one of my new favorite Troma characters now ("Gene is confused!"). Who the gently caress knows when Vol. II is supposed to come out though.

The Thing is easily number 1, okay, but number 2 would be... Halloween? Escape From New York? Hell, even They Live and In The Mouth of Madness could be included in that list. The guy's span is loving outstanding, and Lost Themes makes me wish he'd make good movies again. The Ward was unwatchable.

Deathwatch and Phenomena are both excellent too. I blind bought Deathwatch when it first came out and was pleasantly surprised at how good it was. There's a few recognizable English actors in it as well, if you're familiar with Guy Ritchie and Edgar Wright movies. Also, it's not really a spoiler at all, but the fact that there's a helper monkey in Phenomena is loving amazing. I rewatched that movie recently with my roommate and completely forgot about it.

K. Waste posted:"Bonestorm" is just narrowly superior to "Slumber Party Alien Abduction" in that it mixes foul-mouthed, rear end in a top hat teenagers with "everything going to poo poo," but in a more aesthetically interesting way. Like, in "SPAA" the camera is whipping around all the time, but everything is still totally coherent. "Bonestorm" actually looks like something that the lovely D.P. character in the story would have accidentally produced. We killed a lot of fools.
