Life is scarier man. Relax and enjoy the ride.
Fuck, this is some real shit
Every time someone says ¨scary movies are way too much for me¨ I respond the same way. Life is way more scarier and fucked up.

Yeah I liked it. Nothing great but solid. It felt more monster-movie-ish than most of the other supernatural movies. I kept wishing Francis Ford Coppola directed it; I want it to go heavier with stylized, gothic visuals. Lots of missed opportunities for that.

The Annabelle movies are the best ones, IMO

Keanu Reeves as John Wick, a legendary hitman on the run
Halle Berry as Sofia, an assassin
Ian McShane as Winston, the owner and manager of the Continental Hotel in New York.
Ruby Rose as Ares, a mute assassin and previously Santino's security enforcer in Chapter 2.
Common as Cassian, previously Gianna's chief bodyguard in Chapter 2, whose life was spared by Wick.
Lance Reddick as Charon, the concierge at the Continental Hotel in New York.
Laurence Fishburne as The Bowery King, an underground crime lord.
Asia Kate Dillon as The Adjudicator, a member of the High Table
Anjelica Huston as The Director, a member of the High Table
Mark Dacascos as Zero, an assassin
Jason Mantzoukas as Tick Tock Man, an assassin
I don't believe Jason as an assassin at all unless he kills people with sarcasm and harsh quips.

Was very disappointed with The Conjuring, so I didnt watch any of the others. Maybe I'll do that.

Last Paragraph of a Rollingstone Review: No Major spoilers
- Spoiler: show
- Still, it’s hard not to feel that this love letter is so caught up in its admiration for its source material that you occasionally get that wax-museum-with-a-pulse feeling — a sensation that blood is not the only thing gushing here. Green and Co. have made a tribute that consistently runs the risk of being trapped by its own fanboyishness, so busy trying to balance big-upping a legacy that leaving their own mark on the series becomes a bit of an afterthought. It’s their Halloween all right, but one so marked by callbacks and a checklist of beats to hit for their fellow that there’s not a lot of room for much else. It never escapes the shadow its under. None of which mattered when you have Jamie Lee Curtis standing on stage, basking in well-earned applause as the credits roll and sing-song cooing into the microphone “Happy Halloween, motherfuckers.” Happy Halloween, indeed. If the premiere’s reception is any indication, fans will be in ecstasy. The rest will simply be scared to death.
