Horror Movies

Haven't seen a movie nail underwater anguish so well before.

I'm shaking from the experience to be honest, and I don't think watching it in a movie theater would do it justice with the usage of silence in sound design.

For everyone who wants to see a 104 minutes long version of Peter Jackson's early masterpiece. Most versions are around 90 minutes long.

Loved him on screen

If you love cheesy 80s horror films with bad special effects, this is the one to watch.

Why theory is omaybe my favourite podcast and I just had to share this. A very academic approach to their analysis and heavily focus on psychoanalysis.

Exploring the classical horror film in terms of the antagonism between life and the beyond, inclusive of death. They focus on the films The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Frankenstein, Invisible Man, Godzilla, and Psycho.

Give this a go, its definitely worth a listen!

Great film, really nails the characters and atmosphere. Probably one of the saddest endings I've seen in a film in a while. I'm curious what others thought of the film.

Revisiting Ti West's amazing flick with a little Joe Bob commentary and caught this tidbit in the Special Thanks.

It has the occasional humorous moment and overall was an enjoyable watch. It kept my interest the entire time largely due to it steering clear of too many typical horror tropes and how unpredictable it was.

Also, Black Mass and Man Eater Godzilla count.

Director Leone expressed his excitement about the upcoming re-release, saying,

“This year has been unlike anything we could have imagined. To see all the love Terrifier 2 has received and the excitement this release has inspired from fans new and old, is truly beyond words. As a thank you to our fans and the many people who worked tirelessly on this release, we want to bring it back to the big screen where it belongs. And more than that, while fans eagerly await the release of Terrifier 3 next year, we want the chance to share what we’ve been working on for the third installment because a year is just too long to wait.”

List of horror B-movies from the 1980s and 1990s

Before Jigsaw, Pennywise, and Ghostface, there was Dracula, Frankenstein, and the Wolf Man. Yeah, horror movies and their monsters were more about creaky doors, freaky costumes, and spooky atmospheres than green-screen frights, puzzling torture porn, and high-octane mayhem.

So ahead, we're breaking down the horror movies that stand out in the crypt of classics; those that required their filmmakers to act as mad scientists to craft eerie and visceral tales with nothing but great storytelling and a formidable fog machine.

Link - Cosmic horror has been established as one of the most chilling sub-genres in horror cinema. With a focus on the unknown, isolation, and the human mind, cosmic horror plays on the imaginations of audiences rather than going all out on gore and jump scares. Instead of ghosts, serial killers, or vampires, these stories focus on the endless possibilities of the universe's fictional horrors.

Early 20th-century author H.P. Lovecraft gave Cosmic horror prominence through stories like At the Mountain of Madness, The Hound, and The Call of Cthulhu. The genre can be challenging to pull off in cinema, but plenty of films have tried to capture the terror of the unknown and unimaginable. Everything from stories of paranoia to questions about reality itself has made up cosmic horror in cinema.

I’m watching the new VHS85 and I saw the first one but I’ve missed everything else. Have they ever detailed what’s going on story outside the tapes?

As with most films I went into this completely blind and it turned out to be one of my favorites of 2023. While not super original, the acting is top notch, set design is phenomenal, and atmosphere is pretty unsettling at times.

*** Mild Spoilers ***

Creepy monster design will make you check the closets tonight. Anyone with kids might find this one tough to watch in some parts.

I’ve always been curious if it was well known that Myers wouldn’t be in it? Was there a big disappointment around that?

Just when you thought it was safe to go back into theaters… Cineverse, in partnership with Bloody Disgusting, announce the return of the unrated mega-slasher Terrifier 2 to theaters nationwide beginning November 1. That’s right, we’re extending the Halloween season this year, bringing Art the Clown back to the big screen for the hit sequel’s 1-year anniversary!

The movie will feature a special introduction from Creator Damien Leone along with a never-before-seen Terrifier 3 teaser, both exclusive to theaters!

In addition, on opening night, the first 100 fans at each theater will receive an exclusive Terrifier 3 poster. As quantities are extremely limited, the team behind Terrifier recommends that you get to the theater early. Tickets are on sale now wherever movie tickets are sold – Fandango, the official website and Atom Tickets. ...

It’s damn good.

I feel like it got hyped up in that age old “scariest movie of all time” BS. its def not super scary but it’s really really good. I highly recommend checking it out.

Particularly zombie apocalypse, but also more generally as well. Many seem to be about post-apocalypse, but the chaos and confusion at the beginning seems like such a fruitful idea. Yet that’s so rarely done/done well as far as I know for zombie movie/shows, except for shows like Dead Set UK. Is it because of the budget, or that such shows/movies cannot be milked forever like TWD?

Let’s assume that the remake would be done REALLY well.
