The first part of Martyrs work pretty well as a psychological thriller. Then you reach the second part where all the cult members appear and suddenly it becomes both incredibly stupid and gory. The plot is literally written just for the gore factor. In order to discover what the afterlife is, crazy people need to repeatedly torture and skin a girl alive so that she can be put under as much torment as possible to have the eyes to see what lies on the other side. There is no pay off, no suspense, nothing.

lizardman posted:^^ Speaking of which, Rings is scheduled for release in two months and we haven't seen so much as a teaser poster for it. I can't imagine it's going to make it out this year, let alone for that release date. I hope they have the weird grasshopper Sadakos like in one of the more recent sequels

SuperMechagodzilla posted:The posters are accurate, because the movie's a comedy. the biggest comedy is that Unfriended really does feature a ghost, rather than some psychopath screwing with them

Vulpes posted:I didn't really. It was formulaic and cliche, and the climax was telegraphed from about five minutes in. It was well polished and decently acted (and I'm definitely 'not gay' for Michael Huisman), but extremely forgettable, not to mention a severe case of why don't people just leave. Props for a race, gender and orientation diverse cast, though. Didn't someone just left and it was heavily implied she got murdered?
