I liked it quite a bit. Stacy Keach is great. The tone is all over the place, but that made it pretty fun. It's cool to watch another horror adjacent JLC that I hadn't seen before.
Yeah Keach is so charming. Very weird movie in terms of tone, not really a horror movie until the third act but still really charming and horror-adjacent I guess?
I unfortunately am falling farther behind :( but I did see Road Games kinda recently! I am getting married in like a month and I work for a university so the fall semester kicking off is always a busy time too. Just a lot of life stuff going on and I've had to be more picky with my free time.
Totally get it (I also work at a University) and wouldn't expect you to rewatch it. Time is tough to budget!
Roadgames was pretty enjoyable. Would have preferred it to pick up the the pace a little and feature more JLC, but I had a good time with it
Sorry for the delay everyone! Again, been real busy with life lately. My pick will be Ti West’s 2014 found footage film, The Sacrament. I’ve been thinking more about West’s catalog with his X trilogy in the limelight lately and I normally recommend The House of the Devil when talking to folks about his older stuff, but I think The Sacrament deserves a mention. I haven’t seen it in years but I remember digging it and wanna revisit. Looks like it’s on Prime!
Hell yeah, this is the only one of his I haven't seen and I've almost put it on several times recently. Very excited.
Okay, I lied, I haven't seen The Roost, Triggerman, or Cabin Fever 2 either. Anything there worth watching?
I haven't seen those either. I hear Cabin Fever 2 has a really gross death or something like that lol
I also really liked The Sacrament when I first watched it in college, but unfortunately, I revisited it recently and it didn't hold up for me. Hoping others enjoy it though!
I'm at a rehearsal dinner so I can't watch live, but I've heard Return of the Living Dead, Dawn of the Dead '78, or Cemetery Man!
Thought The Sacrament was pretty solid. Kinda wanted it to go a little more unhinged but I'm fine with what it gave us. I really like AJ Bowen, why isn't he in more things?
Starting The Sacrament now. Kicking it off with The Knife "Heartbeats", this is a movie after my own heart.
AJ Bowen is great. He still holds one of the top spots for contributing to my list of jump scares that made me audibly cry out in The House of the Devil
Sacrament was really interesting to start, but instead of continuing to be interesting it was just the Jonestown Massacre verbatim? Very weird and exploitative, I thought it was going to go somewhere new but nope, it just slightly fictionalized a real tragedy.
