Red Mosquito

i see it differently.

She wanted to be a part of something, hence she was doing anything to make it so...the ¨predator¨ was playing with her until he saw this girl was probably going to take her life.

Then she felt embarrassed by it and went away. The End.

Then the ending is told to us by the guy, and who knows if thats true.

and that is an unsatisfactory story, it's the surface of the text, so I get why you were disappointed

yeah

i was expecting something different, something more.

But ey, im happy you liked it and got so much from it.

The Thing (2011)

Well, i cant understand why they chose to do the cgi here...i mean they shot the movie with practical effects and then did reshoots with the cgi and they suck.

It was more or less compelling until the end i guess.

Mary Elizabeth Winsted is awesome as always...i want her as Ripley´s daughter whenever that comes.

Ti West is very good at this.

Finally watched this (seen it twice now). Fucking brilliant from the opening shot.

As cliche as it could've been, perfect use of Landslide.

The way the initial gator in the pond scene was shot was great.

The first kill and her dance afterwards with the red lighting

Two of the greatest screams in horror history.

I need to revisit The Innkeepers.

I need to watch The Innkeepers.

Thats a great horror movie

i wanna see it again too

I really wanted to like The Black Phone, but left feeling slightly disappointed.

Ethan Hawke was great and the young actors did an impressive job., but it felt very undercooked. Weak writing without much substance and a pretty anticlimactic ending.

damn i wanna see it.

There's still a lot to enjoy. and it seems to be getting good reviews. My expectations were probably too high.

I saw "X"

it starts well, with interesting themes, then plummets into ageist misogyny nonsense fairly quickly

that said, I don't know a better cinematic use of "Don't Fear The Reaper"

Just some old school, easy going fare with a friend last night in Return of the Living Dead and John Carpenter's The Thing, the latter having not seen in quite some time. I'm amazed to read about how much reviewers felt the 'gore' and effects of the various 'Things' were too much, talk about close-minded simpletons.

Return is always good for some simple laughs but I'll be damned if Clu Gulager didn't remind me of George W. Bush the whole time.

The Seventh Seal

oh man it's great

The Black Phone.

I had fun, its well done, bleak and compelling enough but also i wanted way more of The Grabber.

The trailer of X´s prequel Pearl looks amazing. Ti West is on a roll aparently.

Cant wait to see it.

He hasn’t made a bad or even less-than-great movie. The Sacrement is the only one that might qualify. Though Google tells me he did a movie before House of the Devil that I haven’t seen (The Roost).

yeah, he is awesome. One of my favorite directors of these days.

What Josiah Saw: deeply fucked up and uncomfortable Southern Gothic drama on generational trauma and abuse, I loved this movie, it had me glued the whole time; and it's always nice to see Robert Patrick in stuff, even if he's playing a disgusting creep

similar in vibe to The Devil All The Time, if a bit more genre-hammy at times

Prey: already said in the relevant thread, but this was excellent, and I was glad to be able to watch it in Comanche

once again I'm wondering if a horror director (Dan Trachtenberg) can do no wrong

Watcher.

Damn what a powerful movie. Maika Monroe gives another stellar performance. She is something else really.
The movie looks great and it’s a very cool slow burn. I was fucking surprised with the ending

Spoiler: show

Even tough it would have been cooler if she died
