Any respectable fan of found-footage horror movies should watch the first seventy minutes or so of Apollo 18, shut the screen off, and imagine their own personal ending. It takes such a massive nosedive when it starts having no qualms about showing the 'scary' things in full, as opposed to blurry and poorly lit, and the ending of the movie makes it completely impossible for the footage in question to have been found.

hamster_style posted:I watched the first 3 episodes of 'Helix' last night. It's a Syfy show and thought it was a little darker and graphic than their normal fare. It's about a virus outbreak at a base in the Arctic and the CDC comes in to handle it. Don't want to give anything away, but I enjoyed it. You are in for a tremendous *treat*. For better or worse, the first three episodes are in no way indicative of the quality or tone of the rest of the season. What starts off as a serious scientific thriller becomes more and more gleefully stupid until it basically turns into Resident Evil: The TV Series, down to masterminds with secret staircases, shady corporations with private armies, secret societies, and secret bunkers under secret labs under regular labs.

wormil posted:You make it sound fun and I enjoy ludicrous plots but Helix was a combination of boring and dumb, the first 3 episodes anyway, never watched beyond that. But apparently it became drastically better starting with episode 4? It's definitely a gradual process, and takes a while to make you realize how stupid/insane it's going to be, but when it gets there, the crazy pile does not stop from getting taller.
