The Horror Thread 2U • Page 987

Really wanted to go see The Shrouds tonight but the only showtime is 10pm. Probably have to just wait until Sunday so I don't risk falling asleep.

 

I love Companion, it's so fucking good. It isn't as "fun" upon rewatch bc I think ideally the audience isn't supposed to know that Iris is a robot or that she's being used as part of some murder scheme so when a movie that relies on being surprising is no longer a surprise it has to have something else that makes it worth revisiting. The biggest thing ofc is Thatcher's performance, and my appreciation has only grown after watching Yellowjackets. But I also just really love the story and how it's being told, I think it's a compelling and affecting exploration of agency and identity in romantic relationships

 

So many horror comedies take place in secluded properties owned by rich ppl haha

Ready or Not

the only movie I know of where Bill Skarsgard and Anthony Hopkins smoke a blunt and therefore I'm glad that it exists

 

Oh, I'm also pretty sure Locked beat Late Night with the Devil on production logos before the movie - I counted 13 lmao

 

Wish The Empty Man was streaming somewhere, been itching to revisit that one. Planning on Ash this weekend.

 

should probably watch Locked at some point. heard good things. i'm also a big HEALTH fan and i know they have an unreleased song in the credits (although i've had it for a while thanks to their Patreon).

 

y'all gotta lock in on Locked

they should hire me to do marketing

 

meh

 

Don't understand redoing Re-Animator when 1) it won't touch the original and 2) there are so many Lovecraft stories to adapt

 

I do want to get to Ash this weekend but I am also getting dangerously close to making it a full weekend of Predator flicks

 

New Terror Vision release looks sick! Lost 90s SOV slasher comedy. One LB review likened it to Hundreds of Beavers, which I have yet to see

Arbor Day (1990) 4K UHD/Blu-ray 3 Disc Limited Edition w/ Slipcover (PRE-ORDER) — Terror Vision Records and Video

 

Hundreds of Beavers was great so that is super encouraging.

Speaking of Terror Vision, I re-upped my subscription in the past like 6 months and feel like I am not getting regular releases like normal? I know Aaron expressed similar concerns about them not responding. I know they have gone through a whole lot over the past year or so but still, not great.

 

Have you reached out? Someone actually just got back to me and was very nice about helping me out, so they may just be behind on stuff. I know it can be frustrating to see continuous announcements when you feel like the customer service might be lagging, though

 

They’re definitely behind on stuff but are great with customer service. I believe they were just forced out of their previous warehouse with little/no warning, so distro has been backed up

 

I hadn't yet. Wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt and honestly meant to reach out to you when I saw your comment some time ago but kept forgetting. I may touch base to provide awareness but won't push them on anything. Thanks for the input!

 

IIRC Flow had 18 lol. It takes a full two minutes to get to the movie and that’s not including the skippable ad Max throws in

 

Lmao man.. there’s no better example of a great film that was a true, “once and done,” for me.

 

second viewing of Possessor. very fucked up but very intriguing

 

Possessor rocks
