Noroi editionprevious: >>223856873
Just watched Body Bags.Kinda middling stuff compared to the highs of Carpenter and Hooper, but a pretty enjoyable watch. The middle segment with the hair growth had a great start, but really fizzled out at the end when the reveal happens and it's just over.Apparently this was supposed to be a series meant to rival Tales From the Crypt, but Showtime suddenly cut them off and the filmed episodes had to be repackaged into an anthology film. I wonder how long John Carpenter could've lasted having to deal with makeup to play the undead coroner before bailing if the series had actually been picked up.
>>223864758Noroi was stupid as hell
>>223864824It's easily the worst movie this general has recommend to me.The final reveal was laughable, and the psychic was one of the most obnoxious characters I've ever seen in a movie.
>>223864824I really liked it but the crazy dude is going to put a LOT of people off, and it doesn't help that he's integral to the ending. But I could overlook these things. Good movie. Love docuhorror.
>>223864758I have to rewatch this. I've seen a lot of Kojis stuff since then and Occult is my favorite.
I think I liked Ju-On The Curse more than Ju-On The Grudge. The lower budget added to a somewhat creepier feel.
My Japanese horror movie this month will be "Uzumaki".Maybe.Is it good?
>>223864980You should watch the other Junji Ito movie adaptation about the giant balloon heads
That was fun, I can't wait to watch Tim Curry's posthumous role in the sequel.Not going to say who, but one of the actors is a childhood friend that I grew up with, so maybe I'm biased.
>>223864980We don’t discuss anime here
Has anyone seen the Forbidden Siren adaption? Is it good?
This was incredible. Any recs like this? I’ve already seen A Dark Song which is how I came across pic related.
>>223865007No thanks
>>223864980Retard.
>>223865106Ugh, foidslop.
>>223865063we probably would if it wasn't all shitseriously, there isn't a single good horror anime
>>223864980Yeah it's a beautifully shot film, give it a go. Plotwise not as good as the manga as the have the Game of Thrones "idk how is supposed to end in the book" problem
>>223865153Vampire Hunter D Bloodlust is kino
>>223865144That's what the doctor said when your mother shat you out
>>223865063The Uzumaki movie is live action, jeet.
>>223865144You’re so boring
>>223865153Uhh anon are you implying that letterboxd users are wrong cause their official number one ranked horror is an anime
>>223865171This faggot always mentions this movie. No, we won’t watch it.
>>223865171agreed. at least in the manor of gothic universal style horrors
>>223865196We already have
>>223865190Perfect Blue is good, but Letterboxd users are such faggots for anything Japanese
>>223865196I'm gonna watch it once it downloads
>>223865206>Letterboxd users are such faggots for anything JapaneseYou guys are too though
>>223865206Fuck up
>>223865196I watched it 20 years ago because I'm not a zoomer nor am I a third worlder who only got the internet 5 years ago
Worst VHS of the whole series hands down. Not a single fun part. It clearly shows this is a filler one while we wait for the SCP one.
>>22386522660 years old and watching anime
>>223865196It is kino, though. It falls in the category of 'even if you hate anime for some reason, you will almost certainly like this anyway'.
>>223865190You can’t trust normies
>so deep in the madness i'm editing black and white versions together from color films

>>223865319gross, anon, have some self respect
>>223865206I'm suspicious of anyone who rates a movie highly that's in a language they don't even speak. You literally don't understand what you're watching, even with subtitles
>>223865285we don't live with your mom so don't have to care about her rules
I don't know what to watch tonight AHHH
>>223865365Leaving D.C.
>>223865365Go to the horror section in Tubi
>>223865365subspecies 2
i downloaded Sweet Sixteen on account of the tits and sleaze but damn is this movie dogshit
>>223865350>anime website>hasn't been doing his anki reps for the last 16 yearsngmi
>>223865382Good point, that way you know what to avoid
>Barely past 30 minutes and Koreans are shooting and killing each other already>The story and setting located near the Korean DMZ is totally not a metaphor for the Korean War>It's their cultcha
>>223864824It's retarded but completely earnest and that's why I love it. I love worm schizo.
>>223865401>brown person calls others subhuman
>>223865418this mess is what happens when you write a 1 of 3 instead of a stand alone film
>>223865382I am watching Cannibal Farm on Tubi.
what a disappointing movie. i get that you don't really need an explanation for why what's happening is happening, but some cards in a skull is kinda just dumb. most of the maniacs have really basic/stupid designs and the ones that look cool barely get screentime. (the reaper looking maniac towards the end for example) plus an overwhelming number of kills are just lame with the barest minimum of practical effects needed. what was even the point of the water guns in the 3rd act if no one even used them, including the main characters who knew that they worked against the maniacs. finally, the music sucked balls...
Kino
>>223865478its not even enjoyable as a bad movie
>>223864980Godspeed there but watching Tomie made me realized that Junji Ito doesn't translate well to live-action for one simple reason. His stories make for the worst kind of horror movies because they're always great concepts and edging levels of build-up that leads to underwhelming blueballs climaxes. Which is fine for manga with the haunting imagery of the final panel but complete ass for horror films. Especially Japanese horror films
>>223865496>>>f/a/g
Humanoids From The Deep aka Genetically Engineered Frog-Human Hybrids Prowling a Small Town in Search of Young Prime Pussy.Was a good watch and also had some interesting social commentary one wouldn't expect from a shlock monster slasher film from the 80s like this.
>>223865418When did that happen? I know the cops get trigger happy and shoot a couple of civilians but there are no firefights from what I can remember.
tonights film is Lurking Fear (1994)
>>223865496What would Tomie make you realize that? It's a weird, artsy mumblecore movie made as a companion piece to the manga under the presumption that you're already intimately familiar with the material and thus would not want to see any of the stories adapted directly and want some kind of post-script story about a Tomie event that happened entirely offscreen.
>>223865527the girls in this movie is top tier
>>223865535Based
>>223865554You’re pathetic tier.
>>223865568you made me sad :(
>>223865555>Ashley Laurence, Jeffrey CombsYeah... That's going on the 'to watch'
>>223865622Those are the two specific reasons I ended up watching it, and I had a good time.
>>223865480I wanna see this, but I dont wanna see nude 14 year olds.
>>223865643why not
Am I being tricked into watching a version of Kickboxer without Jean Claude Van Damme?
>>223865542>WhyBecause it was the first one I watched and it made me remember >It's a weird, artsy mumblecore movie made as a companion piece to the manga under the presumption that you're already intimately familiar with the material and thus would not want to see any of the stories adapted directly and want some kind of post-script story about a Tomie event that happened entirely offscreen.That's exactly what I wanted from it but the execution was lame as fuck. I wouldn't watch any of the straight adaptations but I'll watch the other Tomie films. Just because they remind me of the Boogiepop live action adaptation
>>223864855it's good until the final act and ending with the bad CGI ghosts, before that it's pretty spooky and convincing with the use of multimedia. The director's other works are total dogshit though, avoid them like the plague
>>223865663Yeah, but your point was that movie made you realize Ito adaptations don't work, but it's barely trying to be one.
>>223865530The scene with the butcher. >FirefightsFun fact: the rooftop Koreans during the LA riots shot and killed their own people. No doubt another metaphor from the director.>It's their cultcha
>>223865568kek you are gay
>>223865659That film is not like a version of anything
>>223865535based
How'd I like it?
>>223865050were you childhood friends with jeffrey combs
>>223865676Alright, I liked Tomie 1 and felt like it could have been stronger if the climax had more budget and if it elicited the same level of unease as the flashback scenes and the final shot with the mirror.Maybe Uzumaki and Gyo translated well to LA but I'll never watch them to find out.
>>223865844you thought it was okay but you're probably never gonna watch it again
>>223865643Grim
>>223865844mgtow
>>223865867uzumaki is okay but the ending is worse but the original ending was only just okay
>>223864824>>223864855>>223864883noroi is mockumentary kinoit's only fault is too many ghosts on camera, you really have to limit that shit for it to be believablethat's why ghostwatch and late night are superior
>>223865886>but the original ending was only just okayIt is what it is, which is fine because Uzumaki's quality rides on those prior vignettes.
>>223865845No, one of the lower-list actors in the movie.Though next time I see her, I'll ask her what Jeffrey Combs is like in person.
>>223865050the main girl in that movie is perfection
>>223865869Me? I've seen it thrice. But I like Zulawski's movies, they're uniquely strange.
>>223865869I actually thought it was really funny and would watch it with a new group of friends if someone was curious about it
Just watched the entire Poltergeist Trilogy. The third one is underrated, and its use of mirrors is solid and unnerving. I liked 2 so much for Kane. But yeah the original one is the best one, its simply comfy horror.
This movie has a lot wrong with it, but its gimmick really elevates it and it's a cool werewolf movie overall.
>>223865478Based on the poster it seems to be stereotypes of races are in some twisted metal type tournament?
>>2238660521>3>2or3>1>2
Do I have to read the books to watch all these Stephen King adaptations?I've only read his short stories
>>223866160You should read more in general, and no.
>>223866160Yes, read the novels first.
i love how the latter wrong turn movies turn into softcore porn
>>223866101>Based on the poster it seems to be stereotypes of races are in some twisted metal type tournament?that idea is a millions times better than what we got. what we got is some magic cards that seemingly spawn maniacs that "live" under the golden gate bridge and kill people for no rhyme or reason. just avoid it, there's nothing there worth checking out.
>>223866189Ahh ok thanks anon
>>223866160Just read the books and skip every adaptation except for The Shining.
>>223866160Read none of his books and just watch the movies.
>>223866160just watch the shining and anything frank darabont madealso the monkey
>>223866160Skip the Monkey
>>223866160>>223866172>>223866177>>223866228Reminder that for every Stephen King book, someone wrote a better version of It, before or after, see:>Burnt Offerings > The Shining>Stinger > Under the Dome>Swan's Song > The Stand>Ghost Story > Salem's Lot>Floating Dragon > It>Hell Hound > Cujo>Jon Shannow series > Dark Tower series
>>223866260Pet Sematary book is way better than the shitty films thoughbeit
>>223864758God this was such a shitty sequel. Completely misunderstands what it is that people loved so much about the first movie.
>>223866381It was good
>>223866381>Abandon Hotel
>>223866313now do misery and needful things
Just finished Cannibal Farm. Movie was pretty good but needed better execution.
>>223866381I agree, same with III. The director just loves cults and lore so you gotta roll with it
>>223866313>no Dark Half, Talisman, Black House, Rose Madder, Revival, Tommyknockers, Needful Things, etc.So not "every" Stephen King book, huh?And I don't know what fucking reddit post told you Floating Dragon and Swan Song are good, but they aren't
>>223864758>is that... a heckin WHITE mask.... with BLOOD on it and.... and... BLACK eyes ahhhhhh I'm pissing and shitting all over my wifes sons new black leather couch that his bio-dad cumms all over because I like the contrast between the black and white as I lick it all upt. literally every horror movie enjoyer

>>223866591The Werewolf of Washington
I enjoyed it. Made by Italians, so of course it's well-directed and has creepy set design. The evil sister could have had more screen presence and I saw the punchline to the "Piece of cake" joke coming
>>223866633>Based on a post by OP, master of homo.
>>223865106unfortunately, it's pretty exceptional imo but, if you're like me you can also enjoy watching more Rebecca Hall psychodrama in 'Resurrection' 2022

Very fun. what did the dad do?
I'm 30 minutes into Fall 2 and is the worst movie I have seen this year, the first one is no masterpiece but I had a good time from beginning to end at least...
>>223866906I stopped watching Fall 2 1minute after the black showed up. Then I skipped to the middle of the movie to see if the black was still in it and she was, so I put something else on.
>>2238663812 > 1 > 4 > 3 > shit > diarrhea > ultra mega shit diarrhea >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> 5No but seriously, what the fuck were they thinking with the 5th movie, there gotta be an explanation, you can't make a movie that bad by accident.
>>223866935Based.
>>223866935Same thing with the pajeet in hereditary
>>223866935So many movies do well in the first movie and then immediately add blacks to the second one.
>>223865769Holy shit you weren't kidding lolWhat the fuck did I just watch
Watched Prince of Darkness. I really liked the premise and the general atmosphere, the church set, etc, but the movie overall felt like it was just missing a lot of connective threads that would have made it really great. Overall I thought it was just okay.
>>223867012>What the fuck did I just watchStandard Hong Kong cinema
>>223867070i always said i only want to see one remake and its of this movie. all the elements are there but it slips on execution.
>>223867118No remakes, I don’t want added girlbosses and blacks.
>>223867178These are both already in the movie

Okay this was a breathe of fresh air after being disappointed in The Beyond.Great soundtrack, vibes, setting, fun story, acceptable acting.did they really dress a man as a zombie and have him wrestle a tiger shark? Because that's what it looked like
>>223867330>bodily autonomy and human rightsWhy do women only care about being able to murder their children?
>>223867366>breathe of fresh air>liked zombi 2 more than the beypnd
>>223866160never waste your time with a King book. and I'm not a genreslop elitist. He's sincerely an awful author.
>>223867381Yes, I did.Much more, in fact. For the reasons I mentioned. Better music, better setting, better acting, and most importantly it felt tightly edited and well paced. My biggest issue with The Beyond was it felt cobbled together.No disrespect if you like The Beyond, its a unique film so what I don't like may be appealing to you.

>>223867366The zombies in this movie look way more realistic and scary than in Dawn 04

>>223867466boom roasted like a marshmallow over a halloween campfire
>>223867478And men commit family annihilation because uhh
>>223865232Well that sucks. I thought it looked interesting but I haven't seen any of the others. I've watched Trick r' Treat and Buddy Saturday night and then watched Pinocchio Unstrung tonight. It sucked but the other two were entertaining.

>>223865232Why is it called shudder
>>223867504because1) ABC - always be closing2) revenge is a dish best served cold, as in leaving no survivors

>>223867527Right, you defend family annihilators and you never gave a fuck about the victims anyway.>but women kill they children
Might throw on some /hor/ny horror, just because everything I've watched tonight has been a miss, and I might as well watch something with some guaranteed titties as insurance.
>>223865106We Are Still Here was ight
>>223867612I didn't defend anyone, but you are successfully engaging in woman logicyou were defending that bitch that killed her kids, I was doing a whataboutism and I'm not even the person you originally replied toalso, as I said before, people like you don't kill their kids or their entire families, you do school shootings
>>223867564Anon, im sorry. You’re cool, like cool cool
>>223867649Yeah you sound like the type that says murder is good as long as you’re mentally ill XD
>>223867668No I don't, and that's a very odd ad hominemMeanwhile the very nature of your initial reaction to that guy's post suggests YOU think that bitch killing her kids isn't as bad as when a man does, thus the comparison you passive aggressively made
>>223867523Cause you shudder just torrented it
>>223867699Checkdd but nope, pal o mine, you’re incorrect c:
>>223864823I also watched this recently, I think I liked the first segment the most. The second hit home as a man watching his hair slowly but surely abandon him. I like that actor, but it peters out as you say. Was not expecting to see Mark Hamill booty, shaft and balls. Maybe it was a body double?.
>>223867715>incorrectAbout what your posts suggest? NoYou might want to work on your English
Just watched Halloween for the second time since 2017. Its a bit boring but last 20 minutes make it up. Now time for II!
>over 2/3 of October already pissed awayAnd for what, Anon? A handful of movies, most of them rewatches? Oh, but you ate a kit-kat bar, huh? I guess Halloween's all sorted out. Give me a break...Looks like you didn't have to bother putting up decorations afterall, your watchlist is already covered in cobwebs. The same cobwebs as last year. Now ain't that spooky?
>>223867774I just watched the first Halloween last year. Going to watch Halloween 2 this weekend. Wife says I need to skip 3 but I still want to watch it.
>>223867622Based twins enjoyer
>>223867778Wonderful film.
>>223867801R o l l i n g
>>223867778I watched this earlier in the month by accident and enjoyed it. There needs to be a better quality version available though
>>223867785I've watched 56 films so far, none were rewatches. Also had decorations up since late September.
>>223867817yeah there's some absolute bullshit where Synapse is sitting on a new scan of it but refuses to release it for some reason.

Bodycam was nice, but it has the problem of the characters not having a reason to keep filming the whole thing, also I don't have a jungle fever but god fucking damn, the black chick that appears at the end of the movie ended my racism on the spot.
>>223867855No im just fast
>>223866667The Visitor is my favorite Ovidio G. Assonitis movie
>>223867823You should have watched a minimum of 66 films to meet the requirement of 3 movies per day to post here.
Best ending credits scene I've seen since I watched Dashcam
>>223867871AgreeAnd some of those should be rewatches, because you shouldn't be a fucking adult man watching Halloween for the first time in current year just as one example
I hope this movie is as wholesome and cute as it sounds
>>223867855That is one of the requirements needed to post here.
>>223867883So instead Halloween should fade into obscurity forever as it's never watched again?
>>223867801Best Alice

>>223867891No, retard.As stated before, you should've already watched all this shit when you were 12. If you didn't do that, you failed.
I re-watched "Prince of Darkness" yesterday, and I didn't remember how messy it was. Not only was the lore all over the place, so were the characters. Running around in that church like headless chickens. I didn't get the plot either. Quantum mechanics is the root of all evil? Jesus was an extraterristial? How did they catch satan in a big glass cylinder, and why did they make it so it could be opened from the inside 7 million years ago? But then satan was not in the cylinder, he was behind a mirror? And also Catherine was also in the mirror, but she got out in the year 1-9-9-9? And the (dissolved) brotherhood of sleep broadcast that as a warning? What for? What could the students have done after the priest destroyed the mirror?I had the impression this movie was not at all thought through. Picture: Egg Shen attacking a zombie with a shaken soda can. The attack was not successful.
>>223867939
>>223867958If you watched the Shining for the first time as an adult, and you didn't torrent it in 2008 as a teenager, you also failed
>223867958We have standards here
>>223867950Satan was in the cylinder and his father was behind the mirror Great movie, the flaws don't bother me.
>>223867973Oh, OK. Doesn't make more sense either. Just like the "differential equations, directly translated from Latin", or the hodgepodge of quantum mechanical gobbledygook thrown into the movie just because Carpenter thought it was kinda cool at the time.Isn't it also part of Carpenters end-of-the-world-trilogy, together with "The Thing" and "In the Mouth of Madness"?
>>223868020>just because Carpenter thought it was coolHe was right. It was cool as hell
>>223868020>Isn't it also part of Carpenters end-of-the-world-trilogy, together with "The Thing" and "In the Mouth of Madness"?that's something redditors made up

Jesus was an extraterrestrial who came to warn people about the cylinder but he was executed because people thought he was crazy, but his followers kept the cylinder hidden until technology found a way to deal with it. I THINK the bit with Catherine in the ending was supposed to be suggesting that while they had altered the future they hadn't actually stopped Satan, since Catherine replaces the figure you had seen in the previous future dream sequences. Not entirely sure on this and also not really sure what purpose those sequences even serve. I think the broader point with the quantum stuff is that humans had made a religion around things they didn't fully understand, but I don't think the movie really gets quite there if that is in fact what it was doing.
>>223868169But anon, she'll find you. And THEN what will you do??????
How did everyone decide to watch Prince of Darkness this year? Every thread has anons saying they just watched it
>>223868169But who you gonna call?
>>223868227most of em reported it being kino, which I think keeps the ball rolling
>>223868155>CandymanWhat a cuck
>>223868227an abundance of redditors who "discovered" horror in their 20swe've been over this
>>223865478I wouldn't mind a remake of this.
>>223868271It will have blacks and girlbosses.
>>223868213There's so many things about this movie that don't sit right with me. If the cylinder was made 7 million years ago (as stated by the blonde who did a "radio carbon dating" (on glass and steel)), how did it end up in Los Angeles of all places? Mountains rise, tectonic plates shift in that space of time, especially around the San Andreas fault line. How did the brotherhood of sleep know about what's in the cylinder? It's just a green slush. If Satan was trapped 7 million years ago, who tempted Job and Jesus? If the cylinder was to be opened when mankind was ready for it, why design the lock so that it could only be opened from the inside? If satan had power over homeless people, black beetles and worms, why did he need the students inside the church? Couldn't he just possess every homeless person in Los Angeles? That would be thousands.All of these inconsistencies are the result of not adapting a book but cobbling together a movie script on the fly in my opinion. Carpenter said "Prince of Darkness" was the movie in which he took the most control over every scene and shot because of the tight budget. It might have helped if he'd known what he was going for before writing the script.
>>223868227first halloween here?
>>223867504butt stuff
>>223868427People watch a lot of Carpenter in general, but not like this
I finally got around to watching Lifeforce. Not what I was expecting at all. The beginning and ending were awesome but holy shit does it fucking drag in the middle. I wasn't expecting so much dialog between stuffy British guys.
>>223868467It wasn’t a good movie
let uncle Pinhead read you a story https://www.youtube.com/@OfficialDougBradley/videos
>>223868227It's been on my radar for years, I recently watched the trailer and decided it looked like slop so I've decided against watching it. Boo-hoo for (You) that I brought it up a thread or so ago I guess.
>>223868496Slop is Obsession, Resident Evil and Backrooms.
>>223866591wait a few months and we'll give you a new answer
>>223868413The Catholic Church, and more specifically the Brotherhood of Sleep, had been watching over the cylinder, they're the ones who moved it to LA. They knew what was in the cylinder because Jesus had told the Apostles, who went on to create the Church and passed the knowledge down. I don't think the cylinder was designed to be opened at a certain time, the Church just hoped to keep its existence secret for long enough for technology to find a solution to deal with it. I don't know that they knew when exactly Satan would be able to get out. You have to assume given that Jesus in this is an alien that most of the Biblical accounts are largely fictitious. I think the idea with the homeless people is Satan was able to control "lower" things like bugs and I guess homeless people(lol) but not the people in the church who he need to possess by having them ingest the green slush. He also needed a specific body for some reason which was that woman whose face he melted off.I am guessing on some of this stuff because I don't think the movie connects all of its plot points super well.
>>223868506Obsession was my favorite horror of the 21st century, for some reason this makes people here angry. I can't imagine letting someone else's taste anger me, what a miserable life that must be to be so sensitive
>>223868496>zoomer thinks a John Carpenter movie from 1987 would count as "slop"
>>223868525Slop of the 80’s like the Fog
>>223868524you're so gay, stop posting
>>223868524whiny bitches gonna whine like bitches
>>223868535not how it works
>>223868524I liked Hereditary, just not as much. It had great scenes but the ending didn'thave nearly the same impact as Obsession or Midsommar.
>>223868525I'm 35. Yes, Prince of Darkness looks like shit. Fight me about it, bitch boi.
>>223868496its slopkino, i watched way back bc of the old chinaman timer
Aight to the anon who was rec'ing western horrors, this one made the October list for tonight
>>223868575Not the point, zoomer.You should've watched the movie when you were 12. Otherwise you just don't count.
>>223868524Obsession was the best theater experience l've had in a long time
>>223868600I saw Obsession three times in a week.
>>223868476It's overrated by coomers because that chick walks around naked
>>223868588Based
>>223868617I specifically don't like it because that bitch basically disappears after the first 35 minutes
>>223868630You will kill yourself
4chan returned to service, and he discovered that the world had continued turning without his supervision. Somewhere, a man had bought groceries. Somewhere else, two friends had gone for a pint. He had missed an entire day of being an insufferable schizophrenic cunt to strangers, and somehow civilisation had survived.
>>223868630From everything I saw about it I thought it was gonna be her walking around naked on the ship killing people the whole time. But they go back to Earth and it gets boring. They could have easily trimmed 30 minutes off of the runtime. It really didn't need to be 2 hours long.
>>223867785I just got some in the mail and somehow didn't notice they were battery powered and now I need batteries, reee
>>223868646You don't even watch movies, jeet
>>223868521Well, OK. I guess that "Prince of Darkness" confused me too much. First all the bits and pieces of quantum mechanics on the university campus that didn't go anywhere. OK, they were later loosely connected to the plot when professor said for every matter particle there's an antimatter particle, so for the god of light there's also a god of darkness. Then they all arrive in the church and every student makes a statement that doesn't make sense at all, but is there purely for the impression that something mysterious (evil) is taking place. The green fluid gets out and then they all start running around in total chaos until the conclusion of the movie. At least from that point on the script seems improvised.And what was up with that black guy? It wasn't shown how or if he got possessed. Then somehow he was walking around like a 1860's stereotype plantation negro. He killed himself, but unlike the guy whose neck got broken in the basement, he got up again and laughed manically. Which made me think Carpenter didn't really know what to do with that character, he just needed a filler for some added creepiness and a few minutes of runtime.It wasn't a bad movie, but in my mind Carpenter should have hired a professional writer to clean up the script before they started principal photography.
The outage gave him a glimpse of the life he might have had if he'd spent the last twenty years developing interests, friendships, and a personality. Naturally, he closed the window and went straight back to posting.
>>223868704who are you talking about, and there's been longer outages even fairly recently
>>223868753He is talking about himself I think
>>223868695Well that's sort of a weird thing about the movie, the characters seem to dramatically underreact to everything. Homeless people have surrounded the church and are just staring at them and there are bugs fucking everywhere but their only reaction is "huh that's kind of weird". They also all seem to be only mildly perturbed by the revelation that Jesus was an alien. The black guy takes off a cross he was wearing and the priest seems bothered by it but that's about it.The black guy got possessed when the translator woman and the radiologist woman held him down and kissed him, rather than vomiting into his mouth like the did for everyone else. I think him walking around giggling was supposed to be Satan fucking with them, the same way he types out a message on the computer and at another point has a dead guy speak to them before exploding into a bunch of bugs. The guy in the basement starts chasing them around too, so clearly being dead doesn't prevent him from possessing your body. It's sort of unclear to me what exactly the limits of Satan's powers were or if he can communicate information between the various people he possesses. My interpretation of the black guy crying near the mirror was that because he was partially possessed by Satan, he knew the mirror was a portal to his father, but he couldn't actually open it until he had possessed that other woman. But when he does possess that woman he doesn't seem immediately aware of the giant mirror in the room the black guy is in, so I don't know.
>>223868787People from the 80’s weren’t that intelligent and the movies reflect that.
Watched Insidious and Insidious Chapter 2.Both movies are just "things constantly happening". Got even worse in the second movie, with two POVs. Busted out laughing at the bitch slap in 2. First movie had some emotional impact. The second movie had none whatsoever.Great movies for anyone with ADHD I guess.
>>223868227alright I've noted it as certified /2026core/
>>223868827Both movies were peak horror. James Wan absolutely nailed it.
>>223868831funny how it's only ever shit from ESL hours
>>223868827>Great movies for anyone with ADHD I guess.The first one had a great sendup from Leigh Whannell. From then on yeah it's basically a haunted house ride.
>>223868853>The first one had a great sendup from Leigh WhannellYeah, that's fair.
>>223868852WADE, THAT'S A LIE AND YOU KNOW IT
>>223868831Where am I in this?
>>223868787My guess is that Carpenter's process as a filmmaker was at the point different from that of a professional writer. He probably had an idea like what if we had students of quantum mechanics deal with the devil, and from there he developed scenes and later added bits and pieces like the "differential equations, directly translated from 2000 year old Latin". And he later added other scenes to come to the runtime of a feature film, like the thing with the bicycle. (Which was btw. a trick from Alice Cooper's stage performances, and Cooper brought his own bicycle prop when they made Prince of Darkness.)A professional writer would have first got his core ideas, his characters and his lore straight, then written a plot outline and carefully checked if what he added conformed to his lore, and how each character or what happens is motivates when moving from action A to action B in the script. That takes time and effort. If we take the later movie "In the Mouth of Madness" for example, that seems a lot more thought through than "Prince of Darkness".

>>223868888>>223868906I loved that show but the later seasons kind of suck.
>>223868867Out of body experiences are a creepy concept. In fact what'd be kino is if someone did a switcheroo where at the start you think it's a ghost film, but it ends up as a murderer who uses astral projection to enter homes and kill people.
>>223868888Nice.
>>223868925The original tv documentary thing was kind of kino like that specific scene
>>223868937Psychic Killer (1975)The Astral Factor (1978) Thanks, Google.
>>223868963Oh, I forgot the whole point of the premise of your post. There is no switcheroo there.
>>223868906
Bake
>>223868827The incessant amount of loud asf jumpscares really put me off I don't understand how anyone can seriously be into that shit. I wasn't even jumpscared once and I was sitting with my headphones on the whole time that I had to turn down a little due to how fucking loud they were but not too much as I still had to be able to hear the dialogue too. It was like watching a Nolan movie with their shitty soundmixing forcing you to turn down the volume once any loud action moments occurs. It's such a shame too because I really like the family angle and character dynamics and Patrick Wilson is the GOAT.
>>223869042it's 310 buddy
>>223869057where'd you get this pic of me
>>223869045But anon, that piano jumpscare effect that they threw in there at one point sounded quite high fidelity
