"Ahh man look at that chainsaw go through the guts of that guy!"

"Wait is that a titty? Yikes, thats kinda problematic and sexist. Do better 1980s slasher movie and have 2020 sensibilities!"

"So, like, the original Friday the 13th movies are, like, problematic. Yikes forever! Gore and boobs are sexist! It's [current year], y'all. Jason needs to, like, kill straight white supporters!"

Not horror but I felt like talking about this flick. I was looking through movies I torrented and came across one I completely forgot I grabbed called Female Prisoner 701: Scorpion:

Japanese WIP (Women In Prison) movie from the glorious 70's. All the WIP tropes are there but it wildly diverges in terms of style and overall aesthetic exploitation beauty. It's very well shot. Very theatrical with a creative use of sets. It's the first WIP movie I can say objectively that it's good. The prison riot at the end was a nice touch that further separates this flick from the horde of cookie-cutter WIP flicks.

Great flick. Recommended. Now to watch the sequels.

What a small world. I picked up the Scorpion release from American Cinematheque/Image Entertainment and the sequel to Blood Feast that has John Waters play a pedo priest both in the budget bin last Saturday, Haven't seen BF2, but I'm guessing it's very tongue in cheek and the soundtrack is by Southern Culture on the Skids. Did you happen to watch it, Bruno?

Blood Feast 2 grew on me. The John Waters cameo is peak but it's a very fun low budget splatter comedy that loses momentum towards the end until John Waters appears.

Obligatory @The Cunting Death

Because I fucking hate dead by daylight and their retarded dev team, I'd like to remind everyone that Leatherface had free cosmetics you could earn through killing survivors. It's the survivors face.
A few niggers chimped out because it was literally blackface and whatnot and now they took it away.

It's retarded to just have these social media retard nigger fags monkey out solely because of one of Leatherface's most iconic masks.
 
I dont remember if I ever brought it up, but one the scariest movies I ever saw would have to be "The Grey" staring liem neeson

No It's not about aliens. This is a movie about a bunch of likeable people trapped in a horrific situation in the middle of nowhere.

I wish I could preserve the shock and surprise this movie had when I went to see this, They advertised this as an action movie with Liem fighting wolves with his bare hands..... Yeah no, no this is a bonna fide HORROR move. Where half the problem is killer fucking wolfs and the other half is simply surviving the elements.

There's no supernatural twist or anything like that. It's all natural and that arguably makes it even more terrifying There's no obvious fuck ups or moments where you think, "oh they are morons" No, just a bunch of hungry ordinary people getting constantly screwed over. Even the asshole of the group gets a moment of understanding and sympathy.

100 percent recommend.
 
I just watched Let's All Go to the World's Fair (2021), solely because Michael J. Rogers is in it and I really liked his performance in Beyond the Black Rainbow. I knew zero about it otherwise.

Early on it was clear I was watching a micro-budget, "nothing is actually going to happen" indie film, but I couldn't have been prepared for how little happened. The movie is, to it's credit, very effective at illustrating the dysfunction of lonely and isolated people who live too much of their lives online in hyper-niche communities, and there are stretches of the film that are totally watchable due to solid direction and pacing. But around halfway through I lost interest (despite a an engaging debut performance by the main actress), and by the end I actually kind of hated the movie (and myself) for wasting my time.

Then I found out the director is a tranny/genderspecial, and I realized I really shouldn't have bothered. Not recommended. It's not even really a horror film.

Oh, and a shout out to whoever in this thread recommended They Look Like People (2015). I haven't been able to get into Perry Blacksheer's later film The Siren (2019), but TLLP is a great example of quality indie filmmaking on a budget. In other words, it's everything Let's Go to the World's Fair isn't, including "scary."

This new gimmick of taking the plot from another film and making it a horror film doesn't seem to be ending anytime soon.

A part of me wants to blame Unfriended for being a shitty horror movie about online culture that ruined a whole generation of horror, but I do not blame that movie. Nay, I blame that subgenre of horror on another shitty movie like FearDotCom.

I was hoping based on the title it'd be about the worlds fair serial killer of 1893. H.H Holmes.

Dude looked perfectly normal and presented himself as a business man while conning people out of money and murdering women and children. Nasty character.

Those movies are called problematic despite the fact that 99% of the time the main character and survivor of a slasher movie is a woman. There's even a term for it "the final girl"

Silent hill is legit good in my opinion. Not an exact remake of the 1st game, but I enjoyed the alt take it had on things and the increased focus on religious themes. (aka is silent hill really real? or is it hell/purgatory?)

It helps that most if not all the monsters are legit practical effects and they nailed the environments and tone.
 
They've got a bunch of Friday the 13th films up on HBO Max now, I might start a marathon of that to get in the spooky season mood
