    I agree with you, but I think we're both on the wrong side.

    You guys should try to cross those tracks

    I'm sure nothing will happen to you while on those tracks.

    Movie thread! I have a friend asking for a disturbing, scary movie. I want him to regret asking me, and ever being my friend, so what are some pants-shittingly fucked-up terrifying movies?

    Eraserhead
    Audition

    Or if you want super disturbing
    Cannibal Holocaust

    Warming though, actual animals were killed in that movie.

    I disagreed with a lot of Eberts reviews, but you can bet your ass I still read them before and after seeing movies. The guy hates some of my favorite movies like Rosencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead and the Usual Suspects, but both of us are crazy for Dark City.

    Even if you disagreed, you could always understand his reasons. It wasn't until the last couple years that it was obvious that he started zoning out on films he didn't care for at all, which, to be fair, he had been seeing a lot of those for decades. Had he lived longer, his plan was going to be rather than reviewing everything that came out, only review films he was actually interested in seeing. Which I guess sounds kind of like semi-retirement.

    I just read the synopsis of A Serbian Film.

    That's something I never want to see... Fuck.

    Want a Halloween movie, Watch Teeth, but do not look up a single word of plot summary, go in blind, just as you are about to shut it off because nothing is happening, and it's just some high school drama movie, IT HAPPENS.

    A friend of mine tried to get me to watch Teeth when it came out. He explained the hook to me and everything and all I could say was, NOPE.

    The Mist is Frank Darabont adapting Stephen King, with Thomas Jane. It's serious and unsettling and has terrifying unknown otherworldly Lovecraftian nightmares.

    I enjoyed it, but it desperately needs an ending edit and the last 2 minutes completely cut. Ending spoiler:
    They need to add some reasonable amount of waiting time after running out of gas. As it is, they're way too quick to give up after surviving that long so it doesn't sit right with me. But far more egregious is the following 2 minutes that turn the ending from tragic to eye-rollingly, comically tragic. Whatever hack put that ending down on paper should be ashamed. In my opinion, ending with him raging impotently into the mist after doing the deed would have worked far better.

    I completely disagree. That ending is brilliant and crushing and awful and darkly humorous. It's a perfect King type ending. Hell, he even prefers it.

    I don't really like horror movies but there have been a few exceptions

    The Shining and The Thing are both very enjoyable because they excel so much at atmosphere. The Thing is also a visual pleasure because the practical effects are in-credible.

    But I have access to neither of those movies right now so may just go with only somewhat a horror movie in Let The Right One In, which I've been meaning to see again since the first viewing. Not sure if it is still on Netflix but I haven't ever seen it not on there so

    I'm a huge king fan who hates almost every ending he's ever written

    Mist (the film) has a good ilending

    I watched John Wick tonight. I was legitimately surprised at how much I enjoyed it.
    When Ms. Perkins was executed I actually laughed out loud.
    I was the only one who did >.>

    Assassin community's got very few rules, but you do not fuck with them.

    Star Trek Into Darkness was kinda disappointing.

  • BYToadyBYToady Registered User regular
    You should 100% watch Tucker and Dale vs Evil, also Cabin in the Woods (if you're using netflix)

    When I was leaving john wick I was thinking that I would love it if they made a prequel or something

    But now that I think about it more I really just want more of those sorts of movies from Keanu Reeves

    Keanu Action is a genre I would strongly to support

    I actually really like the sense that all the characters in John Wick have all this history together, without there being a movie that actually shows it

    Now a cable TV series about the various assassins doing business at the Continental is something I would love
