Insidious The Red Door was just fine. Not awful, not great. So it fits right in with the other Insidious movies, and continues the grand tradition of the series feeling like it is doing everything it can to retcon new poo poo into the story with every single entry. Sinister should've been the one to get four sequels, dagnabbit.

It's gonna be really fun showing her more horror movies in a couple years. Cannot recommend Paranorman enough for kid horror (and really any horror fan)

shoeberto posted:imo the original is great from a film appreciation standpoint (early John Carpenter done on a micro budget), and that's what has made it age well. But yeah, everything it did has been done better in the 40 years since. Yep as someone who is tepid on slashers anyway but especially came to the original Halloween late I have never appreciated the franchise on anything more than an academic level. Halloween 3 is the only one I genuinely like.

If I'm going to watch police station horror I'm gonna rewatch Let Us Prey, because I need more supernatural criminal killing that is actually revealed to be a romance :3 The Devil needs meet-cutes too, damnit!.

Erin M. Fiasco posted:I wish they had been able to use the original Freddy vs. Jason ending with Pinhead. That would've been neat. I’ll never forget the script treatment that went around for Freddy vs Jason vs Ash where Ash cuts off one of Jason’s hands with his chainsaw arm which gives Jason the immediate idea to just shove his machete into the stump so he can have a cool sharp hand too

We ripped our Tales from the Crypt DVDs so that we could make a playlist that chose a random episode from the entirety of the run and then struck it from the list so we’d eventually make our way through all of them. It was a great way to go back through the series with a re-run style randomness.

We watched Hatching tonight. Really liked it! I appreciate when a movie will lean into the "metaphor vs. monster" ambiguity and then go no, mother and daughter are gonna hunt this loving birdcreature down with butcher knives. Luckily we finished eating dinner pretty early into the runtime because there's some gnarly goo amongst the cool creature effects.

As far as ambiguous gaslighting thrillers go, Resurrection is pretty good thanks to the leads (Rebecca Hall and Tom Roth) acting the hell out of it. The Boogeyman was more effective than I expected; reminded me a lot of Lights Out minus the incredibly gross ending of that movie.

I was watching the director's cut a few months ago and my partner came in halfway through, and around the seven minute mark of kaiju Twoies rampaging through the city they finally remarked "I don't remember any of this." When I asked them if they thought it at all strange that both of the leads got killed and eaten prior to that they remarked that they always turned the movie off after Steve Martin was gone anyway, which, fair.

Also did not know until recently that they actually filmed "Meek Shall Inherit" but it wasn't restored into the director's cut when the ending was. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-IrrrDbOzs

Stryder posted:last time this topic came up, I recommended Turkey Shoot from 1982. I discovered it on Shudder last year and it's starts as just another take on The Most Dangerous Game/Running Man but then gets totally bonkers. Best to go into it blind because there's one part that literally made me and shout, "NO loving WAY!" The hero is played by Steve Railsback, best known as the star of Lifeforce and his costar is Olivia Hussey, AKA Juliet from the Zefirelli Romeo & Juliet that we all had to watch in high school. I’ve been meaning to watch this for a minute and completely forgot so thanks for the reminder to put it on the list this year.

Shutter, a movie we watched last night on my partner's request that I had somehow managed to let slip me by despite eating and breathing Ringu movies and knockoffs in the early 2000s, gave me a pretty big laugh this morning when I did research on the American remake (i.e. checked out Wikipedia) and learned that America was still so loving "Japanese horror remake" pilled in 2008 that they took a Thai movie and turned it into an American couple travelling to Japan. And then for some reason the official OST track listing made me laugh even harder because of the immediate juxtaposition in the first two tracks. quote:Track listing

It was really good and had some of the coolest grossest robots I've ever seen. It's a movie that absolutely revels in its ridiculous concept and it's SO GROSS. I really loved it. This thread is a constant reminder of so many movies I've been meaning to get around to watching at some point.
