Do you ever fantasizeABOUT BEING KILLED
gotta have my ribs. and some pussy too!
>>218091130I'm watching this on screambox or something. They play this and Texas Chainsaw 2 a lot.
do the classic films on shudder have good quality or are they 720p nonsense
>>218091130*slaps your tit*Show some fuckin' respect for the dead, will ya?
>>218091229The man was obviously gay.
>>218091204What are "the classic films"?

>>218091155>le powerful black man saves the white women from zombies while the weak white man cowers before him George A. Romero was a pioneer of cuckold cinema. It was a passion project for him
>>218091155I like how the end of this film rightfully shows the apocalypse would quickly get solved by a bunch of country boys treating it like a shooting gallery.
>>218091430Really hoping Smile 3 goes deeper into the origins of the entity, maybe even shows the ritual that first summoned or manifested it
>Smile 2 on Prime Video>Smile 1 available through the Paramount+ channel free trialAlright, I might watch these soon. What do I need to know going in?

>>218091249He was having sex with her afterwards, just probably not on top of the Graves.
>>218092010Let us know what you think when you finish it. It's the first Clive Barker adaptation, before he started directing his own movies.
>>218091833There are zero (0) topless scenes
>>218092231I'm medically autistic. Is this hyperbole? You can't mean zero is in nothing, none. Not like the literal NUMBER zero. There's not 1 topless scene? You mean there's some topless scenes but they aren't that prominent. I'm sure you don't mean it's a non-nude series where there's no boobies at all. Not for 2 straight films
>>218092292
>>218092231Thanks for the warning. Never touching this series.Horror without nudity should be illegal.
>>218091429Romero always accidentally portrayed the bad guys as the objective solution to the problem

Going through some obscure gialli this year, doing “First Surrender” 1971 here, which’s full title seems to be a major spoiler. Absolute pain finding some of these films subbed or partially complete even
>We created The Yeti as an elevated creature feature, harkening back to the golden age of monster movies when horror relied on practical effects, suspense, and well-rounded characters.

>>218092454> harkening back to the golden age of monster movies when horror relied on practical effects, suspense, and well-rounded characters. We love that 1950s Cinemascope sentimentCan't they do this without also being complete faggots?
>>218092476Simply just steal footage and say you filmed in turkey
>>218092454Would rather watch the original.
>>218091833I think Smile 2 is the one everyone loves that's why it's more widely available
>>218092792It is, even rated higher on RYM.https://rateyourmusic.com/charts/top/film/all-time/a:parker-finn/

gore films are cringe because the real shit already exists
>>218092216actually not bad! I remember some anon saying it was boring but knowing it was a Barker adaption I went into it embracing the slow noir story.the main problem was the goofy looking mutants. you could instantly improve this film by making them creepy lizard-people. that was my main issue with Nightbreed as well desu.also I think I missed something but seemed like he got stabbed with the freak juice and they never resolve that.
>>218092216I looked up who did the music because it was interesting. 80s classic I'd never heard, apparently they changed their name to Underworld after thishttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aexff90ZWiQ

>>218092425>title was a spoiler for the last 10 minutesGod damnit Spain stop blowing your load so early
>>218093762>>218092425Ok the actual ending ending execution was good, I somewhat dread how it would be extended by 13+ minutes but the somewhat shortened cut was pretty good here, I liked some of the camera tricks and stuff like staging of shots and hiding other characters behind editing and such, don’t expect to see a blu in 5 or so years but good effort
It takes a while to get there but man does it get there.
>>218093660
>>218094066hmmm the quality got all screwed up. back to the webm mines.
>>218094066
>>218093476>x is cringe because the real version existsI think gore films are cringe too but this is a terrible argument.It's like saying paintings or statues are cringe because real people exist.
>>218094149Yo everyone this nigga likes paintings!
Did anyone watch it yet
>>218094255Is it a Mexican production?
>>218094272No. I have no idea what the race of that woman is, maybe Indian
>>218091249What's wrong with you, man? Show some fuckin' respect for the dead, will ya?
Just finished. Another Letterboxd Top 250 horror, and again not so much a horror movie. It's Tsukamoto though so it's understandable why it's labeled that way. It's mental illness kino, like Clean Shaven or Die My Love, aka the main character is a nut, isn't sympathetic, and were unsure what really does or doesn't happen. This one's about a mother that has a condition where she sees two of every person and isn't sure which is the real one. Her kid is a toddler and gets taken away from her and she's trying, not very successfully, to get him back. She also meets a guy who persistently woos her, but in the end we're not sure what really happened or didn't. Reminded me a LOT of my own mother and was very anxiety inducing. This felt very low budget and sparsely produced but Tsukamoto knows how to get results with very little. Parts of this are annoying and I'm sure some people will find how unreliable our POV character is makes it all seem pointless, but I had a good time with this and was stressed the fuck out.
Just watched Bone Temple. Genuinely a good flick. Howzat?
>>218094579
>>218094496Not horror, kys weeb
>>218094661Yolandi is in Bone Temple?
>>218094255>yetIt came out last year, Anon.
>>218091059Jesus I thought I was the only one that had seen that movie
>>218093538>>218092004I liked it a lot more for the ideas than the execution, the premise is uniqe but its too bland, there's hardly violence, gore or action, you can tell they didnt use so much of Clive dialogue and that the budget was low with all those identical neon lights, its a shame. Also the lead is suposed to be a bit of a pedo right, I mean the girl is suposed to be 18 or so and yet shes had quite a career on prostitution, he says its been years since he worked as a bodyguard (pimp) and that he used to love her.Interesting music too.
Horror movies with cringekino scenes?
>>218095210it was basedkino. i didn't cringe once.

>>218096043makes me want bbq
>>218095004i wish clive barker made more than 3 movies himself. Even lord of illusion is filled with atmosphere, gore and cool designs while having a magician as antagonist
>>218096518I love it, such a unique movie. And you are right, I wish he made more movies, apparently he had a mummy adaptation in preproduction.
Can you help me figure what movie this is?>group of girls dares someone to go across the street and knock on the creepy neighbors door but he abducts her insteadI feel like two of the girls were stepsisters? And they had a land line telephone. Film came out in the past 10-15 years.Any ideas?
>>218097056Idk all my algo fed me is true crime so I'm probably going to go watch true crime docs again
>>218097020at least he is still somehow active, he is heavily involved in the next hellraiser game and it actually looks promising
>>218098204Huh, why's it always Mormons doing psychotic shit in my true crime documentaries but this hasn't translated to horror?
>>218091429so if the black man does anything other than die first, it's cuckold cinema?
>>218092454>backyard JJ Abrams-style filmmaking and aestheticjesus christ. I'm all about bringing back the old practical effects monster films, but that description is insufferable.
>>218094901has been since the day she met Ninja
>>218094661Best girl, shame there wasn't more of her character
>>218095210
>>218092539Still wish there was a colorized version of this.
>>218094901That is too tall to be Yolandi>>218099061Kek
Fuck, what's that Cushing and Lee one with the yeti/monster in the box, it had Telly Savalas and a weird orthodox priest in it
>>218100212>Cushing>Lee>Savalaskino
>>218100212Horror Express?
>>218100292Yes! Thanks anon>>218100269Highly recommend if you've ever had concerns about demonic freight communications and logistic issues, Savalas takes a while to show up
>>218100174brother...https://archive.org/details/abominable-snowman-1957-colorized
>>218100174Why? Films shot in black and white tend to look much better in black and white. The colorization makes it look cheaper.
>>218100756This.Plus a lot of black and white classics were colorized back in the early 90s when the technology wasn't really matured yet. They look awful.
>>218100626Oh shit, I had no idea.
>>218098631Mocking Mormons is... LE BAD
>>218100756I just can't really get into B&W movies.
>>218101119I felt the same way when I was a wee lad. Getting interested in photography gave me more of an appreciation for how light is handled in those old black and white films, though.Finding good transfers and high quality rips is important. You can get away with a bit of loss of shadow tone and some pixelation in full color movies, but when the film is black and white, you really want to preserve those deep blacks and depth of middle tone greys. It can make all the difference.
>>218101103Even the mainstream ones are a bit cuckoo bananas or hang around crazy longer than anyone in their right mind should. Not horror but if you want a wild Mormon ride: Tabloid (2010); Murder Among the Mormons (2021); any Ruby Franke or Lori Daybell documentary; Abducted in Plain Sight (2017)I watched Abducted in Plain Sight today and I thought these people were retarded til LDS appeared in a title card and then I was like, oh yeah that checks out
>>218101365That's probably the issue. Most of my stuff is crappy DVDrips and 720p Yify releases.
>>218101664We're in the UHD era, Anon. You'll grow to prefer B&W as the superior kino experience

>>218103949sounds like a creepy pasta
>>218101664anon is right, the dialog can be pretty sleepy so seeing all the visual details in crispy clarity will grab your attention

>>218091420Thanks anon. I fell asleep last night and didn't make it though the movie, which is okay because I've seen it 9 millions times. But I've never seen this version.
Bump
>>218091420I still need to watch that. I have a workprint for Hellraiser 4 too, but I doubt it makes the movie any better
>>218106013>Chloe Cherry in 2026Nah she bogged herself.

everyone is making fun of horror movies again
>>218107484fuck i'm leaving to go see this in 30 minutes
>>218107484Horror movie parodies are still parodying the horror movies that came out 40 years ago. Where's all the parodies of zoomer horror?
>>218107484after becoming the only human alive who thought Return to Silent Hill was kino, I have transcended reviews
After watching Psycho Killer, I made this
>>218107881I don't know about zoomer horror but the Scary Movie movies parodied some millennial horror.
>>218107892Nice, I'm the only human alive who thought the original one was kino.
>>218107484Is Andrew Kevin Walker washed now?
>>218101959>Band is performing the same song for the entire duration of events in the movieGreat song, but this had to be like Mr. Bones Wild Ride for the audience in that club
>>218107881Zoomer horror is somewhat hard to parody when it already is a parody of itself, for example that fucking 67 gif
What's a good horror movie I can pirate right now?

>>218092454This looks retarded.
>thought I was gonna get a big metal spike chamber scene>it was literally iron maidenwasn't terrible but idk what this film even was. felt lame to end it with Cilian Murphy because it just reminds you of a completely different type of movie.
I just learned the actress who played Alice in Broadcast Signal Intrusion died six months ago.
>>218112218maybe she was never even real....rip.
>>218094496>Just finished. Another Letterboxd Top 250 horror, and again not so much a horror movie.You say this about literally every psychological/comedy horror film though.

>>218112932Jordan Peele's "Nope" is a big budget one though not very /hor/
>>218112951I did see that due to a pal's fondness for atmospheric beasts. Interesting ride.
>>218112932Jordan Peele's "Nope" is a big budget one though it's very /hor/
>>218112951>"Nope" Exactly my reaction when I heard Jordan Peele was directing another movie after Get Out and Us
>>218108071>death metal horror>no slaughterhouse 2 death metalbro
>>218108071>no mandyshit list
>>218107484It's a movie made by an unproven director and Andrew Kevin Walker has kind of fallen off ever since The Killer possibly even earlier. I once read an interview of him where he said that Se7en was written based on his horrible time living in NYC in the late 80s with all the rampant crime and drugs everywhere and so that's why he saw it as much as a horror film as a crime thriller and it got me thinking how a lot of great horror stories have historically reflected the fears and uncertainties of the times we live in and the people inhabiting them. Is it any coincidence that America and Hollywood was largely "done" with horror in the 90s and wanted to label them all "thrillers" instead as soon as the Cold War ended and the future was looking brighter than ever whereas now that the quality of life of living in the modern Western 1st world is rapidly nearing 3rd world levels, horror movies are bigger than ever before? Even the Chinese have started watching horror movies in significant numbers even though the CCP supposedly banned it all in 2008 so Xi must have reversed it at some point. And now we also have women making body horror movies that reflects their fears of aging and not being pretty enough to compete with other women for male attention in this attention economy we're living in presently and we have black people making horror movies about their greatest fear: racist white suburban people and vampires turning them against themselves, causing a loss of group identity and ultimate demise.
>>218108071needs Night of the Demons 2, which has a Morbid Angel song sequence
>>218113380>Budget 23m>Box office 43mthank you China, we may yet get another Silent Hill film
>>218107881when everything of the last generation has been a reboot, sequel, or prequel, there's very little to actually parody that wasn't already parodied the generation before that.
>>218108181The original one WAS kino
BLEH!
in a violent nature has such good cinematography
>>218094579>>218110744I'm watching it right now girls>>218110908I'm 18m into it right now and there are so many fun posts I wanna post already
>>218114664
I'm gonna watch a horror movie today
>>218112848Good isn't really the word for it but this scared the hell out of me as a kid. I thought it was unusually atmospheric when I watched it decades later except it completely blows the endingIf you want good, Rodan.
>>218091482they will never explore the lore this would require effort
>>218104074there was popular creepypasta about a lost media children's tv show that was adapted about ten years ago in that anthology show. Meanwhile I'm still waiting for The Spire in the Woods and Pen Pals to be put on screen when the rights have already been optioned...
So Boner Temple is the Sinners of 2026?

>>218116591Candle Cove for Channel Zero. Still deserves a better adaptation.
>>218117458Not exactly. It was a huge flop for one thing.
>>218117847Was it that bad? I only watched the No End House season since that was the only creepypasta of those adapted that interested me, it was very good for the first few episodes but the pacing towards the end didn't feel right. Way better than I expected for this kind of show and I'm always happy to see John Carroll Lynch.
>>218117902They took huge liberties with the sources that made them essentially different stories. They're not bad per se but for someone who just wanted Candle Cove it isn't satisfactory at all.
>>218117863Well the previous one had mixed reception (at least online) so it makes sense you'd lose the crowd that only wanted a 28 weeks sequel.
>>218117914Ah yeah, well that always happens with adaptations unfortunately, although sometimes it is for the better. My personal dread is adapting Robin Hobb's Farseer books but a lot of the tropes in those wouldn't work today and it's an old series now, so I know it won't happen.
Thoughts on this? I really like fake documentary shit.
>>218117916fuckin wypipo ruining Black women's successes

Apparently someone on reddit 5 years ago had a passion project of up-scaling the 90s HBO Tales From the Crypt series and they uploaded them all to youtube. They got taken down to no surprise but I can't find an archive of them. It's pissing me off.
>>218119460>They got taken down to no surpriseAnd yet whoever owns it won't go ahead and release it on blu-ray
>>218119489It's not even on HBO max. I think because the Crypt Keeper character is owned by someone else other than the TFTC franchise. Some jew shit

In my fantasies, where I am an indie horror movie director instead of being a 35 year old loser wizard, I made a movie adaptation of the Harvester game.How did you make your breakthrough in your horror movie director fantasies?
>>218119460Here's S02E09https://youtu.be/MGmwBgxIdUc
>>218119724Gear and how to info has never been more accessible than it is now. Don't let your dreams just be dreams. A budget film you make today could be the next cult classic.
>>218119724chubby girlboss final girls. they'd attend more fan meetups and conventions as they don't normally get roles in movies. start a cult following. then some producer would get the studio to write me a big check for a swing at a high budget sequel. fuck all could happen after that
>>218113229>>218113300>>218113502
>>218119460Guys a schizo vet
Ngl it should've been Olivia alongside Milly in the new movie, instead of Charli. They have better chemistry and know each well
>>218119724>In my fantasies, where I am an indie horror movie director instead of being a 35 year old loser wizardlmao35 years old is not too late to be movie directorevery fucking poor loser with no education is movie directoryou can be writer tooso get up and start doing what you loveor stay a neet your choice
>>218120235>so get up and start doing what you love>or>stay a neet>your choice
>>218081474I can't imagine having so little attention span that you think "nothing happens" in Exorcist 3 or that Blatty doesn't have a good sense for cinematography or knows how to write a good script. Just watch The Ninth Configuration, guy was both a good director AND script writer, he also wrote the script for the original Exorcist too for which he got one of the only two Oscars it ended up winning. Idk which cut of Exorcist III you watched but it was probably the theatrical which was mandated by the studio to please ADHD morons like you going against his vision so he never made another kino again. Even the so called "director's cut" we have now of Exorcist III isn't the real thing since most of the original footage was destroyed.
>>218119724>>218120235>35 years old is not too late to be movie director>so get up and start doing what you love>or>stay a neet>your choiceThis. I only started making headway in post production in the industry in my 40s. If you want to do it, start now. It takes a bit of time to get things moving, but 5 years from now you'll wish you had started 5 years ago. The biggest hurdle is accepting that you're going to suck at it at first. If you can put your ego aside and embrace the process of learning, practicing, and constantly getting better, you'll make headway faster than you'd think, but nobody ever starts something from scratch and is instantly great at it. I watched "Mother of Flies" recently. It's a film made by a family production company (meaning that the husband, wife, and kids do pretty much everything in the production process). They taught themselves how to make films and have been improving with each production. This last film was picked up by Shudder and has a 98% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. The film has some issues (the acting is pretty rough especially), but they're moving up in the world. Horror is a great entry point for budding film makers. Just go for it.
>>218119724>How did you make your breakthrough in your horror movie director fantasies?I spent a decade making short films and then 2 features (none of which are horrors) only to realise that the indie scene is massively oversaturated and horror is the only genre that makes money without star power, so I decided to make a horror film that I'm currently editing.You're not too old, depending on a bunch of factors. The way I've made films in the past was a young man's game, relying on impulsiveness and high energy focus. Going forward, I'll have to replace that with better planning and a larger team. If you have more than like 5 grand, give or take, you can afford it with proper planning. You just need the experience. So hire some actors and make boring 5 minute short films of people talking to get used to all areas of film production
>>218108071>>218120000>8MM on the list>but still no Se7en>or Saw
>>218120500>If you have more than like 5 grandIf I had that I'd buy a car and drive Uber dude.
>>218120611Ouch. I dunno what to tell you. Filmmaking is exponentially cheaper than it was 20 years ago, but it's still not free.Also you can make a short for less than a hundred bucks which is where you should be starting anyway
>>218120685I don't want to do that, I just want to get any kind of a steady job in a normal country in the industry so I can fucking live. AI took over graphic design and art and even motion graphics entirely, unless you have an uncle you're not getting shit. I have no one.
>>218119724the guy who made Portrait of God, which was pretty excellent, just got picked up for a feature. So aim for a short and put if on Youtube I guess? Seems like an alright early step.

>>218120875>steady job in the film industrylmao, good oneNot happening unless you're prepared to work for basically no money below the line. The industry is dying a pretty painful death right now. If you want to make films, make films. If you want to make money, get a job that's hiring and start saving. If you want to do both, join the line (it's a very long line that isn't moving)
>>218120875"The industry" is a gig economy. There really isn't such a thing as a steady job. if you want something steady that pays well, you'll want to get as far away from the arts as you possibly can. Nobody goes into film or music or art because they "just need a job". It's the long shot you take because you want to take a chance at fulfilling your dream. >AI took over graphic design and art and even motion graphics entirelyNot yet. I've seen it crop up in graphic design the most (and it looks like shit), but not in art in any meaningful way and while it probably will affect the motion graphics industry at some point, it hasn't come for it yet. The bigger problem is that there are fewer films and shows being made overall. Hollywood is in a slump because people at the top are getting too greedy. >unless you have an uncle you're not getting shitBreaking into the entertainment industry has never been easy. It requires you to be a self-starter. If you're looking at job boards and thinking "I can't find anything", then it's not for you. Sure, nepotism exists, but so does old fashioned networking. You need to start making the stuff that you eventually want to be hired for so you can build yourself a portfolio. Nobody will hire you unless you can prove you can do the job and the best way of proving you can do it is to have already done it. Meanwhile meet as many people as you can so people learn that you exist. When your skills get good enough and you meet enough people, you'll start finding opportunities. They'll mostly be pro bono at first, but if you keep going and build up a reputation, you may start getting paid work. This process takes awhile (think years), so it's best to get started asap. In the meantime, you work a shit job to pay the bills.
>>218121387>If you want to make money, get a job that's hiring and start saving.OK HOW DO I DO THAT
>>218121500>>Not yet. I've seen it crop up in graphic design the most (and it looks like shit), but not in art in any meaningful way and while it probably will affect the motion graphics industry at some point, it hasn't come for it yet.Ok so surely you can get me a job in that then since it killed any kind of gigs I ever did and what the fuck am I going to retrain as at 40?
>>218121245leave it to anons to complain about "normies", but then also consume only the most mainstream shit that normies consume (or barely scratch the surface with films that only technically qualify as indie but are basically mainstream productions). /mu/ is even worse.
>>218121580Walk into a store, ask to see the manager, give him a nice stern handshake and tell him that you like the style of his establishment and want to help make them more money.

>>218119724You're going to need to thinly disguise your sources (think Nosferatu v Dracula, Twilight v Fifty Shades) so you don't have to pay for IP, but beyond that you probably just need your phone and a dime store, or actors if you really want to go crazy on the budget
>>218121245When it comes to horror movies everyone knows you add +1 point to its IMDB score and I think it's generally pretty reliable to watch anything in the +5 range. 4 and below is usually pretty bad for any genre. Looking at a few of the reviews now and it gets criticized mainly for being artsy and slow which means 98% of this board was never going to like it no matter what anyway.
>>218117963I love it. Check out The Bay if you want more prehistoric creepy crawly parasite found footage
>>218121580if you're trying to get a first job, it's not going to be a dream position. You just need to get any job, and then start moving forward from there. Don't wait for help wanted signs. Go to restaurants and bars. Apply for positions like barback (bars), dishwasher, or busboy. You don't need experience to do those jobs and there's a good chance you'll find somewhere that needs one. Those positions have a lot of turnover. You can move forward pretty quickly to make better money if you're a hard worker and you don't fuck around while you're on the clock. Barbacks move to bartenders, dishwashers move to prep cooks, and busboys move to servers. If you're a tipped employee (bartender or server), and you live in a reasonably well populated area, you may be able to get by working 3-4 days a week. You don't have to want to work in the food industry forever, but it will generate income that you can use to parlay into your next move. If you want to make yourself a more attractive prospect, get a food handlers license (or whatever your state calls it). Restaurants and bars always want people who have that because someone on premises needs to have one if they get raided by the health department. It'll cost like $20. You do a stupidly easy training course online and then take an in person test. You could also work retail. Same thing - you don't wait for places to ask for help - you just go into establishments with your resume and ask if they're hiring. If you don't have any experience at all in retail, you won't be able to get a job at a super high class place, but that goes for pretty much any job. The more desirable a position, the more expertise you'll be expected to have.
>>218122075>>218121580If you can book up on the basics of microsoft office, you can go to a temp agency. They'll test you on various office-related tasks (typing, basic spreadsheet stuff, etc) and then keep your info on file. When offices need someone to fill in temporarily, the agency places people from their files. A lot of times those gigs end up offering temps full time employment if they prove capable. The other way into office culture with zero experience is getting a job in the mail room.
>>218122039Most of my favourite horrors are about a 3 or 4 on IMDb. A lot of that rating being low is going to be>poor quality or old film>too much gore>highly offensive >graphic or sleezy>meanIf you get a higher rating some of that is>this is a praised art film, you can't complain the film stock is from the 70s and was bought from a surplus store>ppl told me this was classicThe ones that don't have the highly offensive grind house feel down votes might rise to a high six or seven, but all that's really telling you is there's less blood or the incest isn't shown on screen etc, not that it's a better movie, just a more broadly tolerable one
>>218122122>>218122075Ok how do I move to America where you can apparently just get a job instantly?
Rock n Roll is NOT over, baby! Rock n Roll NEVER DIES!
>>2181220394+ is pretty fucking good for horror I noticed
>>218122160>>218122039This. 3-4 is pretty good. Dawning of the Dead was like 3.5 I think. I enjoyed that movie.
>>218122039That's accurate; it is both artsy and slow. Some of the shots are straight up beautiful and the fact that it was made on a shoestring budget by a family is extremely impressive. I liked it, but I also watch a lot of indie films in general (not just horror). I don't expect most anons would have the patience for it, but the point is that they made a film that was picked up by a mainstream streamer and they didn't have a huge budget or a big crew and were self-taught filmmakers. Joe Bob Briggs has talked about this too. He was confused why people seem to think you need tons of money and to live in LA to make a film. Anyone can make a movie with their friends. You can buy cheap LED panel lights for a couple hundred bucks if you want to get a lot of them with all the diffusers and gels and stands, and pro grade cameras can be bought for a few thousand. There's a start up cost, but then you own the gear which you can reuse over and over again. And if that's too much, everyone owns a camera in their pocket these days that trumps even pro-sumer cameras from the late 90s. There are tons of great horror films that didn't have everything they needed, but they got creative with the resources they did have.
>>218122212I can't find motivation for you, dude. Given our brief interaction here, you seem like the type of person who will always find an excuse to NOT do things which doesn't bode well for your future. You're not a victim of circumstance. You just want someone to hand things to you without making an effort.

>>218122594The bad guys were white. And blond wigs. That alpha african zombie is just a misunderstood migrant. All the strong female characters.
>>218122567have you done any PA work on other peoples' films? Learning the ropes a bit by doing grunt work on other indies is not a bad idea, plus you can start building a roster of people to potentially tap for help when you do your own thing. One thing I've learned is there really isn't a moment where you feel like you "break through". Once in a rare while, a short will go gangbusters and then Hollywood will want to option it for a high budget follow up, but most of the time the progress is slow and steady and when you do start getting bigger opportunities, it just feels like a continuation of the grind. The whole "artist gets discovered" story that was sold to us as kids doesn't really exist.

>>218122852Careful. Mods be banning for pics of jimmy ink for being irrelevant to discussion while allowing Wednesday goon threads all day.
>>218122785Yeah I have no illusions about making it big. I was just surprised when I started sketching out an idea that it was fun to try and write a script even knowing that it wouldn't become a film. I read a book about scriptwriting and that was fun too.I've just worked on some short films with friends where I was helping out. I think my aim will be to write something that's easy to film, have it in my head. Even if it's one of those one man found footage flicks like Leaving DC.
>>218123119>have it in my head.Don't keep it in your head. Draft it, redraft it, story board it, keep your budget and location in mind. Found Footage: The Filming of the Patterson Project is a great movie about how you need to think shit through and not wing it and how things will go wrong and not releasing demonic entities from the oubliette and leaving before the time paradox sets in
>>218122755I don't think it's this crude... or is it? I can't see that 28 Years Later was about anything else, other than Bri'ish culture.>>218122852It's kind of funny how in 2002 the plot is about how men will turn into pack rapists the second society falls apart, and in 2026 the plot is that even a roving group of vile sadistic satanists wouldn't rape a strong womyn if they came across her.
The Jimmy shit in Bone Temple felt so dumb and late to the party. I don't dislike the trope of psychopaths reigning in the zombie apocalypse, but at least make it interesting>they're all named Jimmy and they're fucked up and like the teletubbies!Who wrote this shit, the director's 8 year old nephew?

>>218123196>menWhite men**The movie was woke. >>218123196>>218122852She beat like a few characters up. She would be raped irl.
>>218122160If anything I feel like the reason why we don't see many horror movies on IMDB/Letterboxd top 250 lists is because a lot of horror fans actually share your attitude so they often clash with the ones who have more mainstream tastes. It has less to do with the actual quality and more to do with one camp expecting something entirely different than the other camp and getting upset when those expectations aren't met and vice versa (for example anons here getting upset when Barbarian and Weapons weren't 100% super serious horror from start to finish). This is why objectively great modern horror movies like VVitch, The Lighthouse, Hereditary and Bring Her Back have much lower ratings in the lower range of 7.x than the latest sci-fi epic or Nolan slop that rabid fanboys spam with their 10/10 scores.
>>218123294Whites are such cucks, if any other race was portrayed as the only bad guys in a movie, there would be riots. Whites lost already and don’t even realize it.
>>218123213I saw this german autist on X getting flamed for going to a festival in Cologne dressed like jimmy. that nonce satanist fit

>>218123343>Hereditary >Bring Her Back
>>218123364All the good guys in Bone temple were white. Spike, Dr. Kelson, Jim. Maybe you're just retarded.
>>218122160>>218123343There's also the fact that moreso than any other genre you will find more than a few people who will unironically refuse to watch movies older than the 2000s because people's sensibilities back then will seem tame to the levels of violence we're used to nowadays. I've seen anons openly admit they were disappointed by the lack of gore in absolute classics like Halloween and TCM the latter of which they also felt misled by its title because Leatherface barely uses his chainsaw in the film even though that has no bearing on the quality of the end product at all, their priorities in what they want and expect out of a horror film supercedes literally everything else. You won't find fantasy fans disappointed by the lack of fantasy elements in something like GoT is all I'm saying. It's really not that horror fans' standards are any higher than any other fanbase's since most fantasy and sci-fi is actually pretty shit too yet you will still find dozens of movies from both of those genres in the IMDB and Letterboxd top 250 and none of us will live to see another horror movie crack into those lists because horror is a polarizing and transgressive genre by its very nature despite its niche audiences. It's the burden of expectations and very specific ones hence all the "X isn't horror" nonsense we constantly see in these threads that often contradict the viewpoints of the director and/or writer who made the movie they watched in a genre they consider themselves experts on while continuously failing to understand the concept of subjectivity and that there's more to horror than simply repeating tired tropes for the sake of meeting some arbitrary scare/gore quota.
>>218123343> This is why objectively great modern horror movies like VVitch, The Lighthouse, Hereditary and Bring Her Back Subtle troll

>>218091130Neva
>>218124480Yeah, it's the best kind of subtext really. You don't need to see it to understand it's a film about a girls obsession, but it's supported by a substructure about german obsession with hitler.
