They're called comedies, not terrible movies.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Kinda.
There are funny bad movies, and there are terrible bad movies.

How about terrible comedies?

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

As long as you're having a good time!

Sometimes the terrible ones are the best ones!

I've been on a horror movie binge and can confirm this is true.

That little kid was the epitome of cool in his day.

That's how I found Llamageddon. No regrets.

If you want a somewhat unknown, but fantastic Horror move (with Christopher Lee, John Carridine, Vincent Price, and Peter Cushing):

House of the Long Shadows (1983)

Manos: The Hands of Fate

A Touch of Satan

To be fair, though, some of the bad ones are good precisely because they're so bad.

Oddity

This was my most recent good horror movie discovery

It's like a slot machine, you just keep pushing that play button until you hit the jackpot.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

I always figured they were made for the kind of person who would screech if the lights go out unexpectedly.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

It’s even worse when you include horror literature.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (8 children)

If you're on this binge and want some recs. "Talk to me" and "late night with the devil" are my favorites so far this year. "Longlegs" was really bad imo.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (3 children)

Talk to me was one of the first horror movies in a long long time that actually got to me, highly recommended if anyone is on the fence

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I found it super corny personally and knowing how it was going to end 20 minutes into it's showtime wasn't helpful in that opinion. I think I've just grown out of horror (not trying to say it's childish or anything just shit at phrasing). Main girl was very good though.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Some parts were for sure, and I wasn't a fan of the ending either

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Been considering renting Talk To Me, these comments convinced me, thanks!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

It is on Kanopy. Lot of good chills on Kanopy.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

That one scene in the bedroom got me good. Had some trouble being alone in the dark after that for several days. Thankfully I have doggies and a wife so not sleeping alone. I would have prob had to sleep with the lights on otherwise.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Yeah, really liked Talk to Me.

V/H/S Beyond is alright as well.

Salem's Lot is awful.

Quiet Place Day One was surprisingly decent.

Haven't got around to watching The Substance yet, but I've heard good things.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

So disappointed by 'Salem's Lot, and my expectations were not high.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

I can't believe they had the gall to release it in cinemas. It's got "straight to streaming" written all over it.

They must be actively trying to hurt theatres at this point.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Late night with the devil was such a neat movie.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

It was so cool, but tripped at the finish, IMO. The first 85% was really cool, though!

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

Longlegs could have been very good but they fucked it hard. The "lead" detective, the M. Night Shyamalan twist, and too much Cage hurt it bad. The final scene with Cage was amazing but that should have been the only real look at him.

"Late night with the devil" was really good. Touched enough points to be good but not over the top. Run time was perfect.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

I liked Longlegs

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Update, I rented β€œLate Night With The Devil” and yes, absolutely worth it

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

I couldn't get through Talk To Me.

The teenagers were written to be so off-puttingly obnoxious, I ended up walking out of the theater early. Loved the concept though.

My favorites this year have been the new V/H/S film, Abigail, and Festival of the Living Dead. All this talk of Salem's Lot makes me want to watch Midnight Mass again.

I know I'm the odd one out, but I haven't enjoyed most of the critically-acclaimed horror this year.

Check out Smile (both of them) and The Substance

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Hahaha I just watched smile and yeah that was dope! I'll definitely check out the second one once it leaves theaters... Gonna start substance now.

[–] [email protected] 0 points 1 week ago

Haven't seen the second one yet, but the scene where she was sitting in the car is one of my favorite horror moments.
