Movies

I just watched the film and thought it was fantastic. It was really dark and disturbing at times. The film kept me guessing at every turn and I haven't been this impressed with a modern film in a while.

If you haven't seen it yet I highly encourage you to check it out. Viewer discretion advised obviously.

The first reactions to Tom Hardy's Venom 3 have hit social media.

I'm doing a month-long series of campy, classic and unique horror movies. I'm pretty liberal in what gets included, trying for a lot of variety. I'm particularly a fan of spooky comedies (like the Burbs), and generally avoiding big franchise horror series to see more unique stuff.

I'm enjoying seeing so many movies I would never come across any other way, even if many of them aren't all that great. So far my favorite is probably Cabin in the Woods or Happy Death Day.

Anything I should add to the list?

Fans customized the Wicked movie poster to more closely match the original Broadway poster.

Original Broadway Poster:

Movie poster:

Some fans, disappointed by the poster, altered it to be closer to the original, moving Grande’s hand and lowering the brim of Erivo’s hat to cover her eyes. The edits prompted Erivo to respond. “This is the wildest, most offensive thing I have seen

“None of this is funny. None of it is cute. It degrades me. It degrades us,” Erivo continued. “The original poster is an ILLUSTRATION. I am a real life human being, who chose to look right down the barrel of the camera to you, the viewer… because, without words we communicate with our eyes.”

So, this seems like a completely reasonable reaction to fans making fan content.

Described as The Purge with werewolves, Steven C. Miller‘s (Silent Night) Werewolves will be unleashed in theaters December 6, 2024.

I just watched alien romulus and I thought it was really frustrating. What happened to the lethal face huggers and the older, experienced crew of spaceships that got paid like shit by the company?

Now they are hitting face huggers left and right with sticks, and people just get up after having one over their face.

I didn't feel like I cared about the characters. They were actually quite unlikeable. I really miss Ripley. She had enormous amount of character, strength and intelligence. What did we get in this movie? They are all super generic.

Just disappointed. How about you guys?

Millie Bobby Brown & Chris Pratt star in the latest Russo Brother epic, THE ELECTRIC STATE, only on Netflix MARCH 14.

From writer/director Isaiah Saxon and starring Helena Zengel, Finn Wolfhard, Emily Watson and Willem Dafoe. THE LEGEND OF OCHI – Coming Soon.

I watched Possession(1981) for the first time last night and holy heck was that a mindf*ck of a trip. I had heard great things about it and how it had a cult following but I went in blind otherwise. Loved almost everything about it, very surreal and the film itself contorts to things I can’t even describe by the end - solid 8/10

I also viewed Jacob’s Ladder(1990) last week and that was a wild ride as well!

Anyone have any personal favs or recommendations? I’m not a horror fan by default but just trying to watch some gems I’ve missed during the spooky season 🎃

'The Legend of Ochi' writer/director Isaiah Saxon confirmed that the A24 film used practical effects and 3D animation, not AI.

Title pretty much says it all. When I watched the Sadness I learned, much to my surprise, that I sort of have limits where the gore becomes a bit too much.

That being said, that movie was on another level of impressively realistic horribleness happening for about two straight hours. Terrifier seems more Western and classic blood and stuff but wondered if anyone had seen both and had thoughts?
