The Horror Thread 2U • Page 487

Im definitely in and it’s definitely a Christopher Landon-lite film

 

WHAT? How the hell did I not know about this? Agreed...I'm down with Duchovny.

 

I’m down

 

Probably gonna catch A Haunting in Venice this week. Looks like more horror than mystery and apparently it’s based on Christie’s Halloween themed murder mystery.

 

There's an ad for that on Tiktok of Yeoh being "iconic" which is odd tonally for the film but also like, go off queen

 

Gore-Us.fm Halloween Watchlist?
I can only think of Gore/Ghorus.
Ghostwatchers?

 

I asked chatgpt to come up with the sweatiest name it could think of and it was Chorus-o-Ween Fright Flick Fest.

 

That’s amazing

 

Alright, we got 15 participants!

Let the 1st annual Gore-Us-o-Ween Fright Flick Fest commence!

(@imthegrimace and @Shakriel I've included you as peer pressure, if you really don't want to, no worries)

Everyone can start sending me their criteria for a movie so I can compile the list - just reply to this post or DM me.

Remember, it should be something that allows us to choose from at least a few different movies (i.e "Watch a Troma movie", "Watch a zombie movie that's a sequel", etc). Let try to make sure we can choose from ones that are regularly accessible as well. I'll be adding stuff to Plex as I'm sure others will as well, so if you can't find something reach out. I think that's it, not too many rules.

If anyone else still wants to participate, you're more than welcome, just let me know - if more people want to join, but we want to stick to 15 films they can do some overarching guidelines (i.e. 5 films have to be from woman directors) or Extra Credit films/tv shows or something, I'm fine with more that 15.

To start on the 15th doesn't give us much time, I propose Monday, 9/19, but we can start whenever we get all the picks in.

I think we should add some Extra Credit so many we can brainstorm on that.

 

would've loved to but don't have the time to commit right now. enjoy y'all

 

we're a chorus of weens? that feels problematic

i think i'm just gonna stick with that.

 

Oops I didn’t read the “reply to this post” bit, sent you a DM with my suggestion!

 

Got it. Either way works.

 

My pick is:
A movie featured in the book “Bleeding Skull! A 1990s Trash-Horror Odyssey”

https://boxd.it/eBVUG

here is the LB list of movies
Edit:
And a whole bunch of mine are free on Tubi or Youtube

 

I liked Gore-Us

 

A body horror movie from the 80's is my pick

 

My pick is a horror movie featuring an inanimate object as the antagonist!

 

Watch a Romero horror film you've never seen, or alternatively, the Romero horror film you've seen the least

 

Hip-Hop invades Horror: Watch a movie that features someone from Hip-Hop

 

Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark is low-key becoming a Halloween classic.

 

It already is for me!

 

A horror film featured in MST3k (obviously riff free)

 

I need to give it another try. It just didn’t land for me on my first go around.

 

@Daniel my category will be an HP Lovecraft adaptation not featuring Jeffrey Combs and Barbara Crampton

alternatively, some extra credit categories (if wanted or needed!) are:
-a cannibalism film from 2010-2020
-a sequel set in space
-one of John Carpenter’s “Apocalypse Trilogy” films
-movie set in a movie theater

 

Ha, I was watching that on Syfy before the VMAs.

Great movie. Nostalgic despite being a recent movie.
