I know many fans, maybe most of them don’t like Pg-13 horror movies. I think that if you’re a true horror fan you should be able to enjoy horror in all his colors, even the vainilla one. To me an r rating doesn’t make the movie better or worse, yes it may be more fun visually but there’s plenty of Pg-13 horror movies. Also Tv-14 and Pg.

A few examples are: The ring, Lights out, The boogeyman (2022), World war Z, The woman in Black, Jaws (PG), Poltergeirst (PG), Insidious, Megan, A quiet place, The abyss, Scary stories to tell in the dark, Nobody will save you, Cloverfield, The sixth sense, 10 cloverfield lane, Happy death day, 1408.

What are your favorites and what do you think about Pg-13/Tv-14/PG?

Mine would have to go to Claire Higgins as Julia Cotton in Hellraiser and Hellraiser 2: Hellbound. The level she goes to for lust, not even love. As she put it in part 2 “I am the evil step mother”.

My theory is that it's a dark web hacker that took the tapes and re-edit the tapes into some mythology gruesome death (EX:Wendy getting chased by the static serial killer) after re-editing the hacker took the tapes and sold them off to different locations

Idk I just think that's how it happened what's your theory?

What do you guys think about him? Do you guys love him, like him, hate him or don’t care? I think everything his done it’s amazing. I do think his tv shows are better than his movies. The only I never watched it’s Midnight club. The others I did. I think that the haunting of Hill house it’s the best thing he’s done.

What about his movies? I love all of them. Absentia, Hush, Oculus, Before I wake, Ouija: Origin of evil, Gerald’s game and Doctor sleep. I’m still waiting for The life of Chuck to be released on US theaters. My favorite movie of his I think it’s Hush. My least favorite it’s Absentia. It has a great concept but I guess that because it was his first movie the bad acting and low budget played against it. And I wish Before I wake received more love. People seem to dislike it.

I don’t know if he’s still attached to the new Exorcist.

I've been looking to watch some darker and higher shock value horror films, because apparently I hate my brain, but most of the ones I consider watching just seem like gross indulgences with horrible plot lines. I was going to watch "A Serbian Film", and then I looked a bit more at what the plot was... Those topics are just something I can not watch when it comes to horror.

So, I suppose my question is: Are shock value movies just not synonymous with a great plotline? Or do you have any suggestions?

I will be watching Human Centipede, but that's about the only one on my list at this point. The last set of horror movies I watched was the Saw series, and those really didn't have as much shock value for me as I thought they would have...

Oh my god. Oooooh my god, this movie messed with me in a wonderful way I didn't expect.

The title literally means "Curse of the Heathen," and it's witchy as hell. So of course, I thought they were initially talking about the stigma Albruhn and her mother received for not being Christians and for being unmarried mothers.

But (and this is 100% just my take) the movie's speaking to the idea of mothers hurting daughters. Albruhn's mother hurt her horribly when she was delirious from plague and/or possessed. When Albruhn ran off, her mother screamed in grief and ran off to the woods to die. That's how it appeared to me - this woman who loves her daughter and works hard to take care of her hurts her anyway. How heart-wrenching and horrible.

Albruhn tries not to repeat her mistake and clearly loves her daughter even though it's hard to raise her alone. I won't go into spoilers, but she makes does horrible things to her daughter (ALL of which I had to turn away from).

But that chain of horrible events actually begins when she eats a hallucinogenic mushroom, and I'm 99% convinced she ate it not knowing it was hallucinogenic. She saw bugs eating it and clearly debated before eating it. This is after the asshole townspeople killed her goats, so she was probably hungry and trying to figure out what to do.

The curse of the heathen isn't being witchy. It isn't having normies hate you, or even that the forest seems like it's out to get you. It's being destined to hurt your child, even if you love them and would never do so willingly.

Fuck, I loved this movie. If you need some witchy or Big Forest horror, definitely try it.

Okay the title might not make sense, but this will.

I'm looking for movies that give me the CREEPS. Like I want to physically recoil with either disgust, horror, fear, pretty much anything to freak me out. I love gore, and I've seen pretty much every mainstream movie because I have no life. (Not a flex, I just watch a lot of movies).

I have a scene that perfectly explains this lmao.

Spoiler for IT FOLLOWS!!

When they're upstairs and the door opens and this TALL ASS MAN ducks under the door frame. Man that shit freaked me out when I watched it lmao. Or the tunnel scene in *Incantation*, also fantastic.

The werewolf horror genre is one of my favorites. Even if there’s barely any good ones. American Werewolf in London is still the best one to have come out. So I was really excited for this movie when it was coming out, especially since it had Leigh Whannel behind it.

I’ll start with the good stuff. First the intro was absolutely great. I loved the slow build tension in the beginning. But it just falls apart after that. The changing of the lore was good, I liked that it appears in this world, that when you change into the wolfman, you’re just always the wolfman, no changing back and forth. Or at least that’s how it seems, we never see any one change back and forth so I’d assume that once you’re changed that’s it, there’s no full moon triggering it or anything it’s just the person becoming infected and the. Slowly turning until they’re completely gone.

The woods location was a great choice as well. It’s the best atmosphere for something like this especially if you’ve ever gone hiking in an isolated area alone, and it fits with stories you hear about hikers that go out alone and are never seen again. And for me personally I always loved and was scared of the wolfman as a kid and I always imagined him being in a woodsy area and stalking outside a cabin so that was great seeing what I’ve imagined on the big screen

My absolute favorite thing was the dark shots in the cabin when he is sneaking around in the cabin in the pitch black. There were parts when you see him in the background and it’s dark enough where only few people can see him. Even my gf didn’t notice him going down the stairs and crouching/hiding behind the daughter. I absolutely loved how dark they had those shots where it’s something you may not see the first time watching, and I loved that there wasn’t any music cues or whatever to show the audience that he’s on the screen somewhere. Like as if they want you to see him but don’t want you to see him. I do wish there was more better shots of like a silhouette of him outside the window. We did get shots of it but I would’ve liked to have seen a jump scare kinda shot, like similar to 28 days later when one of the effected was looking through the window.

Onto the bad. The overall design of the wolfman. I get they didn’t want to go full supernatural. But I just couldn’t get into the full on design/look and kept hoping he was going to look more wolf like

Other thing is bodycount. I’m not saying I need a full on bloodbath. If anything I thought that was kind of a problem with the Benicio del Toro one. The killings were cool, but it was bordering on too much killings where it was feeling more like an action movie than a horror. But this movie i wouldve liked if there was a slightly higher body count. The wolfman kills one person on screen. And when the main cast mainly consists of 3 people, 1 of them being the one that turns into the wolfman and the other 2 being characters that we know won’t die, then it doesn’t feel as scary. We end up not seeing the wolfman not seem as intimidating when he doesn’t have anyone that is at least expendable to kill on screen, and we know he won’t be able to kill the mother and daughter. Feel like if they at least maybe had him go to the cabin with his wife and daughter and maybe a brother with him too, or if there was 2 other hunters in the woods looking for the wolfman. I know we got the one guy but he just got taken so quickly that he just becomes a forgettable character and kill. So yeah a little more carnage would’ve definitely helped I feel like.

Also I forget her name, but I was not a big fan of the wife’s acting. She just looked angry the entire movie, and didn’t get much development.

As disappointed as I was, I feel like the movie would be a good start for a sequel. It does appear like there’d be more wolfmen in those woods and we could get a bigger build on it. It’d be a wasted opportunity not to do another movie using a location like they’ve done and continuing to do scary dark shots like this movie and fixing mistakes made with this movie. Only issue though is that they’d need to adjust the makeup for the wolfman. Not saying they need to go full werewolf in London, but like a better in between of this movies wolfman and benecio del toros wolfman look would be better improvement. Pretty much like the concept one we’ve been seeing when Gossling was attatched. They should go on with a sequel and try to combine whatever original idea they had with gossling and see if he’d be on board with the 2nd one.

I really wanted to like this movie, it was the one movie I was looking most forward to since I heard about them doing it. So giving it a negative review sucks, and I’m hoping maybe I missed a point the director wanted to do, but all the other stuff I mentioned is just what kinda ruined it for me.

I am debating buying via Amazon Quatermass and The Pit the original serial version not the 1967 movie. How are the DVDs made by Sinister Cinema? I know Shout and Kino DVDs are good but Shout only has the movie.

Does the company do Closed Captioning? I have not seen it listed on their website or on the Amazon page. I avoid Dollar Tree quality DVDs and hope Sinister Cinema isn’t that poor quality.

Im going to need to sue Disney and ITN distribution to get back the 90 minutes of my life spent watching Piglet 2025.😂 I don't care if Disney didn't sponsor it. It was so bad that they need to be sued for even letting this happen. 🤪

A stand alone movie, not in the Poohniverse, it manages to suck all on it's own. This movie was a lesson in how important sounds is to a horror movie. I mean the very first kill was like some one getting shanked in the yard in a prison movie.

Guess Piglet never got over being locked up? Either way the lack of sound really made the kill seem like it was nothing. Terrible way to start the movie. Which, From the very first kill to the last they were lackluster at best. Which brings me to my next point, Who was in charge of special effects on this movie!?! The kills were so bad that a lot of it happened off screen be they just didn't have the practical effects. Then! Out of left field, when it couldn't get any worse they started adding cgi blood effects. Absolute garbage...

I'll take my money now...

We keep seeing that former killers and victims of Ghostface will be in the cast of the new Scream.

My guess is that the new Ghostface will be using AI and deepfakes to torment Sydney, and I think the new killer will be..

Gale Weathers

She went off the deep end after Dewey died, and she has continued to sink from prominence as an aging reporter; she has started to create her own headlines again to return to relevance in the world.

Watching last house on the left 1972 currently and wondering how impactful this film was on the classic trope of police incompetence in horror.

I seem to even recall another classic that has literal clown noises with the cops. Maybe squeaking shoes and/or clown noises or something of the sort? Can’t really remember which, but I think it was one of the Friday the 13ths, or something of that level of classic.

I’ve also seen other classic horror commonly cited/credited for the utilization of synthesizers, but was this one of the first? How impactful was this flick on the utilization of synthesizers in horror? Is it just due to the relatively new inception of the technology at the time?

Edit: I know Wendy Carlos and the contributions to Kubricks stuff probably inspired and/or predated the latter. I imagine delly derbashire and other electronic pioneers contributions to the popularization of synths probably had loads of influence as well. Just haven’t seen this movie credited much despite such early utilization.

Edit 2: Did the use of the chainsaw even potentially influence TCSM? Is there any horrors that predate the “horrorfication” of chainsaws?

I just saw a trailer for it last night (while watching "One of Them Days", don't judge), and meant to write it down. I've been googling for 20 minutes and can't find it. It was on the upcoming features.

I presume these aren't spoilers because they're in the trailer. Let me know if I should wrap it.

A bunch of younger adults somehow end up at a dilapidated mansion house, looking for missing people. There's a sign in book / register in the house, and the missing people have signed the register multiple times. some 5 times, some 13, etc. The people all get attacked by different monsters every night, and it implies either it 'time resets' or something similar every day. they're to figure out why the number of signatures in the book vary, how to get out of the loop, why the monsters change, and so on.

I'd like to take my son to this movie, plus it sounds like a banger plot. Can someone help me find the name? thanks.

Hello, I am looking for a movie with some game developers who call some testers to test a game they made and the villain come’s in real life and start killing them. I think the villain had a sword or something like that.

Films I can think of that fit in this category are The Exorcist and Hereditary. Where the supernatural forces are very real, but they're more slow burning and sink into the psychological effects of or that embolden the supernatural events.

What are films that aren't entirely psychological, like The Babadook or Smile, but not bright and fast demon horror like the Conjuring franchise?

I have a habit of guessing/figuring out what's going to happen when I watch a new movie. While on one hand...it's kind of exhilarating when you find out you were right...it also sucks. So, I love finding those gems I can't figure out...and that could be because I'm too immersed watching it and I'm just along for the ride, there's a crazy plot twist, etc.
What are some movies you could have never figured out?

I'm looking for works where going home feels horrible because the threat of violence hangs in the air, or there are secrets that must not be mentioned, or where your sense of identity or reality disintegrates the longer you spend visiting home... What it feels like to go home for Christmas, basically, lol.

Or anything similar. It's more about that suspended dread and weirdness than outright violence, if you see what I mean. If you know something like that, I'd love to hear about it!

Sounds kinda cheesy and corny but looking for incidences in horror movies where the killer/villain straight up shouts and just tells victim to die right to their face seconds before murdering/attacking. It often takes itself very seriously so it can unintentionally have this effect of becoming kinda funny and indeed cheesy.

The Ghostbusters one is classic.

So less than 15 hours from now, I'll reveal the final nominations for these awards but there's still time to get ballots in, especially for performances. There are a lot of close calls so better voice who you want in

No idea what's up with all the low ratings. This is a real cool movie! Sure it's not as GREAT as Cronenberg's masterpiece, but taken on its own as a silly little monster joint, it's a lot of FUN!

That elevator head squish has to be my ALL-TIME favorite gore moment, haha. Pops like a damn zit. SPLUUUSSCHHH

Also gotta love the dude who rips his own face off after getting blasted by fly vomit! Says on IMDB that it was producer Mel Brooks' idea to include that kill. Rad if true, hahaha.

A solid and super entertaining goofball sequel!

(the less said about the melty mutant dog - the better. so sad..!)

Hey guys, I'm currently unwell again so my best friend has my child and I want to put my feet up and watch the shit out of some horrors.

I need some recommendations please for..............................

Horror films or horror comedies that take place in a summer camp, failing that any horror comedies really but be warned I have seen a lot of horror films so I need you to not pull the most known ones out please. I know this is rather specific, so i apologise, it's just that I watched Sleepaway camp the other day and I love it so much. Hope you're all having a lovely weekend, thank you so much in advance.
