    Just finished Pet Sematary: Bloodlines, a brand-new Paramount+-original (lol) prequel to the ultra-serious/dark 2019 remake

    Worst thing I've seen in a month, second-worst thing I've seen in five months

    If you're going to take the fun completely out of something that was campy enjoyable at best, you could at least convince most of the cast to not monotone it (the lead is unbearable, David Duchovny phones it in harder than he did for the end of X-Files, and Forrest Goodluck is the only person who seemed to try with the material in every scene. Which I'm not shocked by, Goodluck's ruled in everything I've seen him in so far), or at least have it in broad daylight or close to it (two scenes in this rivaled that one Game of Thrones episode for "I can't see this shit no matter where I view it on, that's how badly lit it is. oh and the directors are gaslighting me by calling my new TV/monitor poor and outdated")

    Also it's not scary. Or really bloody outside from a kill or two in the final half hour

    Sometimes dead is better. If only they'd listened when thinking about bringing the franchise back

    Watched Haunted Mansion and Totally Killer this evening.

    Both are a ton of fun.

    EDIT: The host and I got talking about digital blood/effects in horror and he immediately recommended Terrifier as a an example of incredible practical effects, so that's going to happen soon I'm sure.

    Terrifier 2 is the better film I feel, tho they are both extremely acquired tastes. They’re essentially just a series of intense gore sequences very loosely tied together

    I admittedly opened this thread mostly to see if Art the Clown was on the poll or if anyone had mentioned him.

    I'm not a fan of gore so I haven't seen them, but I've heard they're intense.

    Terrifier is a straight up tech demo for practical gore. There’s barely any actual movie there.

    Terrifier 2 is more of a movie but I still didn’t love it. The practical gore is a worth the price of admission though.

    Tik Tok suggested to my wife that we watch Return to Sender on Tubi.

    That was one of the most NOTHING movies I have ever watched.

  • Sweeney TomSweeney Tom try The Substance it changed my lifeRegistered User regular
    The first Terrifier is intense but meh. The second one is more intense, and longer, but also better/good imo. Part of that is they hit the nail on the head with casting who they wanted as their hero going forward

    A challenge I like to pose to myself is to try to recall the movie I know I've seen but remember the least about. Lately, I think that movie is Stardust, where the only things I remember about it are that Michelle Pfeiffer is in it, and Robert DeNiro plays a gay sky captain.

    It’s a fake documentary style/found footage movie.

    I get strong Cunk on Earth levels of sarcasm and cringe so far.

    This is pretty much how these movies were described to me, and I am in.

    I finally got my DVD from the garage and got back into watching the Fincher filmography with Fight Club. I think I might wait until next month for Panic Room and The Game since it doesn't look like they're streaming anywhere and I'll have to rent them and I haven't seen them as much as Fight Club so I'd like to give them more attention than while I'm working, but don't want to interrupt scary movie month with the gf.

    Once again Fincher knows how to film on a disgusting set. I feel like some of Se7en is dirtier, but you spend so much time seeing how disgusting the Paper street house that it takes the top spot, at least for now, I know Zodiac has some disgusting locations too. It's still a really good movie, and fun to really notice all the hints that they're the same guy the whole movie. It's kind of depressing how much the pointlessness of his life before Fight Club is more relevant than when the movie was made. A lot more people would root harder for the ending and destroying credit card debt records.

    Age has definitely made this movie resonate less with me. I still really like it and its obviously an impressive display of Fincher's directorial abilities, but its definitely a movie that was much more in line with college age me, much like the movie it's packed with in the double dvd I got, Boondock Saints.

    Last night I did a classic slasher double feature with Scream and Nightmare on Elm Street 1. Ended up liking Nightmare better but I had been spoiled on basically most of Scream.

    Best thing I saw recently though was Fade To Black, a slasher about a guy who loves movies too much. I sadly related to him.

    I found out about these films shortly before studying A Handmaid's Tale in my English Lit class

    There's a passage where the Handmaids are being shown an unnamed torture porn video, and I casually mentioned, "sounds like Guinea Pig: Flower of Flesh and Blood", assuming that my teacher would be aware of what Atwood's influences for the scene were and we'd then discuss what that meant in the context of the book

    Nope, she'd never heard of them before, so I had to elaborate

    Pet Semetary 2 is the best one and it isn't particularly close. Maybe my favorite Clancy Brown performance in a long career full of bangers.

    I should watch The Lure next.

    “ One dark night, at water's edge, a family of musicians encounter aquatic sirens Silver and Golden. After assuring the family that they won't eat them up, the winsome sirens are recruited to join the Figs and Dates band at a neon-lit Warsaw dance club. When Silver becomes romantically entangled with beautiful blonde bassist Mietek, the more cunning Golden, who cannot escape her bloodthirsty nature, worries that her sister's relationship will doom their shared dream of swimming to a new life in America.”

    Near as I can tell there's a shameful lack of Leprechaun in this thread, easily a top five movie slasher IMO and who could forget the seminal Leprechaun: Back 2 the Hood, possibly the most hilariously misguided title and premise in horror movie history?!
