The fact that the guy who sold the vhs is literally the guy who played Biff is pretty funny

It’s like if instead of a sports almanac he got access to some manchild subreddit

Honestly the scariest part of M3gan isn’t her uncanny valleyness or bloodlust. It’s the fact that she’s clearly based on Elizabeth Olsen. Because that’s exactly the kind of thing that irl techbro creeps would do

anybody who can stick the landing on a horror/comedy is one to watch. like five dudes in the history of film have pulled it off

Are they really that rare?

Can you name more than 5 horror-comedies that stuck the landing? The list I can think of so far...

Ghostbusters
Evil Dead 2 (though that's arguable on the comedy front, mostly it's a horror movie with funny moments)
Shaun of the Dead
Tremors
Return of the Living Dead (also arguable on the comedy front)

There are certainly more movies that tried, and even partially succeeded as horror-comedies. But I don't think any of them really stuck the landing. Most of the time you end up with a Tucker & Dale Vs Evil situation, where it's hitting both the horror and comedy pretty well but then had to tack on an ending that just doesn't work. Or it's an outright comedy with some light horror trappings, like Zombieland.

Creepshow
Gremlins
Scream/Nightmare on Elm Street (same director)
Beetlejuice

e:
American Werewolf in London
Re-animator
Malignant

I guess my definition of horror comedy might be broader than most? I can see how these might be considered “horror movie that happen to be funny” or “comedy that happens to be scary”

but I do think it takes a pretty high level of directorial competence to be able to balance the tones

For sure, comedy and horror are basically opposite genres

Unpopular opinion but Sunk Dunk I feel that you have made a grave mistake by outing yourself as yet another fat beardo. Your perverted posts were much funnier when I could pretend that little Babu Frik was behind them. Maybe you can make it up by doing your videos in a Babu Frik voice but honestly I don’t know if your posting brand can recover from this.

The ET puppet sold for $2.56 million but cost $1.5 million to make for a return of 70% even without considering inflation

The Nukie vhs sold for $80,600 but only cost let’s say $10 for a return of 805900%

Therefore Nukie is 805900/70=11500 times better than ET

The problem with rich people bad movies is that they’re all made by slightly less rich people. Like none of them are made by the actual dregs of society. They just reek of jealousy rather than genuine hatred

Unfortunately RLM is going to keep attracting creeps as long as they have modern sex icon Rich Evans on the team

Jack Nicholson is a regular looking dude who has resting psycho face. The real weirdo looking old actors are Steve Buscemi, Willem Dafoe and Christopher Walken
