The Horror Thread 2U • Page 51

Yeah, I still really enjoy the Assembly Cut and think it mostly succeeds at tackling the franchise from a different genre standpoint. Almost closer to a drama/character study

 

Yeah, so The People Under the Stairs was sick. None of the slapstick stuff really landed for me, but as a whole, it was smart, disturbing, effective, and totally batshit. Totally feels like a reference point for Jordan Peele (and it looks like he recently signed on to remake the film). Didn't realize Wes Craven had a leftist streak in him but what a wild ride

 

That movie is one of the best fuck yous to Ronald Reagan and his bullshit ever put to film

 

I haven’t seen that movie in so long but I do remember it as being one of my earliest horror movies I watched. What was the name of the guy who’s tongue was cut out?

 

Roach!

 

Yes. I remember feeling really bad for him.

 

Creepshow S2 on Shudder tomorrow also.

 

Still haven’t gotten into that show, maybe this season will change that.

 

Man, for whatever reason I really did not like Day of the Dead the first time I watched it, but barring some overacting, I'm really enjoying it now. Might not touch the first two in terms of legacy, but it definitely stands its own

 

FINALLY

 

When are they putting the new Creepshow episode up? Don't see it on there yet

 

It's up now along with a few newbs including the Train to Busan sequel.

 

Excited to check out Peninsula. I haven’t heard good things, but still excited

 

Stoked to finally see The Dentist movies! Sorry about all the Shudder posts!

 

Peninsula is indeed awful

 

didn't realize the last drive in started so soon! woohoo

 

The McPherson Tape!!

 

Copped the Home Grown Horror set from Vinegar Syndrome. Seems really cool!

 

Damn, this does look cool. I couple of the films are on Youtube, but between the quality and the packaging, I think I might have to pull the trigger on this as well. Right up my alley

 

Yep, copped that and Deathrow Gameshow. Excited.

 

Deathrow Gameshow was fun

 

Enjoyed the season premiere of Creepshow. Second story was groovy. Bummer it seems like season 2 is only 5 episodes unless there's more next month.

 

I would assume there's more next month

 

Just finished The People Under the Stairs and it ruled. It was one of those movies I always knew the name and the VHS cover but had no clue what it was about. Still thematically prescient, loved the '90s cheesiness and humor, also had some pretty creepy parts and kept me guessing what was going to happen next.

 

Excited to report the Last Drive in Patreon does in fact come with time stamps! Gonna watch Jaws with the old host segments tomorrow night
