Is that based on the book?

Then Barbarian, Nope which was great, Pearl, Smile, Prey, the Hellraiser remake, Men, Resurrection, Huesera, Manticore, Project Wolf Hunting, Halloween Ends, which everybody hate but I love, that Marvel werewolf movie with Gael Garcia, Moon Knight and Dr Strange 2, Bones and All, Bodies Bodies Bodies, Terrifier 2, Deadstream, Hatching, You Wont Be Alone, Fresh, Speak No Evil, Skinamarink and The Outwaters. And even though I didnt loved it, Crimes of the Future, which gave us amazing visual and concepts.

2022 was a really really excellent year for horror.
Forgot about this two episodes from the Cabinet of Curiosities:

We watched Crimson Peak. I appreciated the effort it was really beautiful to look at but the story was blah. My wife really liked it though.

Barbarian is great. The first mainstream horror film that takes genre tropes and uses them to create a metaphorical explanation of feminism without resorting to obnoxious sociology 101 lectures that break you out of the moment. A rare feat in modern cinema.

Going to be watching Prey soon, this tid-bit was nice to read 'When the Predator types on its wrist gauntlet, it corresponds with the Close Encounters of the Third Kind theme.'

"The new Halloween series is envisioned to potentially launch a cinematic universe spanning film and television. Miramax’s Head of Global TV Marc Helwig will be overseeing the franchise creatively in close collaboration with Akkad" as well as reminding that "Jointly controlling both the film and TV rights would allow Miramax and Trancas to map out an integrated film-TV universe."

Jesus Christ, why?

Assuming they’ll try to do something like Hannibal, focusing on MM and Loomis in Smith’s Grove before the first film. Tough to get upset about people wringing more cash out of a series that has already seemingly hit rock bottom several times

Fair point. I actually really liked Hannibal. I suppose anything can be good in the right hands.

I really can't imagine ANYONE really feels there is enough foundation to warrant anything like this.

I’m a sucker for the movies and so far the only one that I truly can’t tolerate watching is Resurrection, so I’ll watch whatever shit they put out. Although I have to say, Ends really tested my tolerance.

The Zombie pair and the last three really killed it for me personally.

I'm one of the few people who liked the last three, but it would take a lot to get me interested in a TV show.

I've never fought found horror TV shows very interesting. It's too long to stretch the tension.

As a straight narrative I'd tend to agree. Serial or anthology horror series, well those are where it is at for me.
