The Horror Thread [Archived] Movie • Page 11

so bad, among the laziest of the j-horror remakes (unless you're talking about the original, which i dont think i've seen but the originals are consistently better than the remakes except, i would argue, The Ring is comparable)

 

The original is pretty similar to the remake. They got the director of the Japanese film and pretty much inserted a few American characters into the existing backstory

 

alright guys i found an obscure japanese horror manga i really want to read and very little of this author's work has been translated professionally or by fans. who knows japanese and wants to help me out

 

I Saw the Devil is my favorite horror movie..what should I watch right now?

 

Asia has put out some of the best horror films in the last 20 years. Not much else to add to that, just figured I'd say it.

 

He Never Died was pretty entertaining. it's cool to see Henry Rollins in a more serious role than Wrong Turn 2.

 

Anyone a fan of extreme torture porn flicks? American Guinea Pig is something I'm tempted to check out but somewhat hesitant.

 

I rewatched Dawn of the Dead (2004) last night, such a fun movie imo. I also realised that I really enjoy 3 Zack Snyder movies, does that make me a fanboy?

 

You guys ever see the sequels/follow-ups to Suspiria? I was considering it

 

Not really a horror, but you might like The Man From Nowhere.

 

i really need more stuff in the vein of terrorvision

 

I am watching Dolls, a horror movie I absolutely loved in fourth or fifth grade. It is every bit as good as I remember. Watch this one.

 

if you mean Inferno and Mother of Tears, the former is terrific and the latter is one of the worst movies i've seen recently

 

Texas Chainsaw 2?
Meet the Applegates

 

Hush was pretty decent. Good performances from the two lead actors.

 

Anyone know of a good site to pull sound clips from horror movies? I need some stuff for bumpers and a possible intro...trying to go kind of deep and not include the biggies from the 70's and 80's.

 

I liked Hush but it very much feels like a minor work from Flanagan. still good though.

 

watched Hush last night. enjoyed it but echo what's already been said about it. however, i thought the scene with her talking to herself about all the possible outcomes and resolutions of her actions without fighting was really coolI will continue to be excited about anything Flanagan does

 

yeah, Hush is clearly a fun passion project and you can feel it. though you can't help but be a bit underwhelmed by its limitations as a quickshot spur-of-the-moment movie.

Flanagan shines in the moments when spacial specificity is paramount to where the opponents are more concentrated on their own physical objectives than the execution of their goal. The final scene between the mirror and Karen Gillan's character in Oculus and what each of them win/lose or in Hush when the two square off in the bathroom (resulting in the film's showiest scene).

 

Flanagan needs to stop fucking around and make Geralds Game already.

 

didn't read too much into it, but it looks like some free tickets for Green Room screenings are up for grabs

I saw The Boy last night. Thought it was awful for the most part. However I really enjoyed all that happened after Frahms climbed out the wall. Turned in to a pretty good thriller after that.

 

The last five minutes of Frankenhooker is probably the best thing I've ever seen.

 

The Invitation is absolutely jaw dropping. Loved it!

 

Loved Hush. Was honestly kinda disappointed in Oculus after seeing Absentia, but he did a great job with this one.
