The Horror Thread [Archived] Movie • Page 432

I just watched Jigsaw and The Strangers: Prey at Night today and last night. They weren’t great but weren’t nearly as bad as I was expecting them to be after reading reviews.

Besides that, I watched Apostle which was pretty good!

I want to show my girlfriend Trick r treat this week also. I haven’t seen that since it came out but i liked it enough to buy the comic (which is cool btw if you’re a fan of the movie)

 

I really enjoyed new Halloween

Also saw Summer of 84 a few days ago and really liked that too

 

(@supernovagirl this seems so up your alley also!!)

 

So I decided to splurge and bought this print from Gallery 1988 since I’m in the need of decorating wall space.

 

Now I wonder if this is on clearance at mine

I almost got the Nickelodeon one...a true sucker for gimmicks and nostalgia..and makeup...

 

Summer of 84 was pretty good

Alien Covenant was not

 

I still love Alien: Covenant.

Went out and bought Jason Goes to Hell, Jason X, and Freddy vs. Jason. I've only made it through the first two, but woof...interesting that the two worst films of the franchise essentially ended it consecutively like that, and with Sean Cunningham back on board. Jason Goes to Hell is at least fun in a batshit crazy sort of way (the FBI exploding Jason's body, an unexplained bounty hunter, a worm posessing Jason's victims, etc.) Jason X was SO disappointing in the sense, by all counts, it should've been similarly entertaining. Instead, it mostly felt like a wasted opportunity and a slog. My current ranking based on personal preferance would probably be as follows:

Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (sorry)
Friday the 13th
Part VI: Jason Lives
Part 3-D
Part II
Part IV: The Final Chapter
Part V: A New Beginning
Part VII: New Blood
Jason Goes to Hell
Jason X

Overall, maybe a little more consistent than the Halloween franchise, but I still enjoy that one more. Having a blast running through these, though. Probably going to do Child's Play next.

 

Jason X is fun!! It's real dumb

 

glad to see others enjoyed Summer of 84. planning to finally go see Halloween tonight, in IMAX. been trying to get people to go and it's been a pain, so screw it, going alone haha.

Never seen Trick r' Treat but it's always recommended to me, finally gonna watch it tomorrow, feel like Halloween is as good a day as any.

 

trick r treat has become essential halloween time viewing for me

watching apostle now and really enjoying it. love the obvious comparisons to the wicker man it draws. i love creepy cult stuff so much and now want to find and watch kill list again too.

 

dang this is gorgeous

 

i love kill list so much. the first time I saw it I couldn't stop thinking about it for months

 

same. its so unnerving throughout and the end just really crawled into my head and didnt leave

 

love Kill List

 

One of the best parts of Kill List is the trailer

 

watched Before I Wake the other night. some effects were a little cheeseball and the ending is tied off a little too neatly for my tastes but there was some effective and clever stuff in there. didn’t know it was a Mike Flanagan flick until the credits, explains Mrs. Dudley from Hill House having a small role

 

also showed my gf Creep and i’ve never seen her so conflicted on how she felt about a movie haha. she seemed to hate it but simultaneously wants to watch the sequel

 

I loved the sequel. I put off watching it until this month but it's really great

 

Watched The Exorcist with my girlfriend, who had never seen it. She is an easy scare with horror movies and she wasn't scared at all which was interesting. She enjoyed it a lot though and was blown away by Linda Blair's performance.

 

listening to the novel of The Exorcist right now actually.

 

After I saw the new Halloween I heard a group of people say it was it scariest film ever... Idk some people are weird

 

I thought it actually was pretty scary for a slasher

 

Is The Kill List streaming anywhere?

 

Only on some thing called Mubi

 

kill list is on mubi, suspiria is on tubi. what is this
