I did not particularly enjoy this film. I didn't hate it, but I wouldn't watch it again. I don't understand the fuss at all. It's just a generic, kinda stupid monster flick.
Cinemaphile has some retarded boner for this awful flick for some reason. I guarantee it's all underage retards who were 5 when it came out defending their nostalgia.
>It's just a generic, kinda stupid monster flick.
It's top tier for a modern monster flick. There's nothing wrong with a horror movie being "generic" if it delivers what audiences are after.
The only actually good scene was when MC stood up in the cave and there were weird creature figures standing in the background.
It was fucking eerie and unsettling.
The rest was the typical horror with a nice spin in the end. Nothing excellent.
yeah it's awful... has way more conceits than the average horror film and there's no sense of progression or plot... just idiots in a cave system getting attacked repeatedly. lots of very obvious jump-scares. no sign of acting. saw it on some premium channel years ago and laughed my ass off... definitely a case of revisionism because nobody talked about this film when it came out
there are no characters. there aren't even stereotypes. what their relationship to each other is nobody knows. there's no romance or sexiness

This simple premise allows for a decent director to really go apeshit with meaningful effects, and this movie absolutely delivers on that.
a typical horror movie like that done with some high energy style, some actual camera movement rather than overuse of still shots, and some decent writing would be infinitely better than all the elevated horror shit now days that uses "atmosphere" to excuse a lack of absolutely everything else
fair enough, i dislike obnoxious assholes in my horror movies as well, unless they're counterbalanced by some good characters (like in sleepaway camp and other older slashers). i miss when horror movies could have likeable characters who actually did stuff during the movie. most modern horror movies are so devoid of any energy and writing you could just as easily look at still shots from the movies and get the same experience.
Horror is at its peak when someone innocent and defenseless suffers. Otherwise I just root for the villains.
That's why home invasion genre is great. It's 100% your choice to enter a dangerous location, don't expect me to feel any sympathy. It's not your fault if a psychopath broke into your house and holds your children hostage.

Or hey, how about that Alien makes it very VERY clear that engaging Xenomorph in 1v1 combat is genuine 100% suicide. Yes, retard. When a hero has a physical advantage over the villains enough to take them 1v4, it becomes cheesy action. It's just Army of Darkness fags don't cry like bitches when I call their movie action, trying to convince me that their movie is super-scary.
If you're dumb enough to equate the two, I'm only reinforced in my belief that The Descent is brainlets' favorite horror movie.

Damn almost like there’s a power difference between the Xenomorph and the cave dwellers.. so if something isn’t as strong as the xenomorph it’s weak, and zombies aren’t good horror because they can be killed en masse. Your reasoning is retarded. You make no sense and I just don’t take you seriously lol

See? Finally you understand. Zombieshit for the most part is "me and my buddies gonna get drunk and watch a gory action flick" cinema as a proper horror it kind of sucks.

Well it’s a good thing that doesn’t happen in the movie, m’retard, I’m just saying there’s tons of videos of women like suplexing grown ass men and successfully defending themselves against not just 1v1 but multiple attackers. You say it’s impossible because you don’t have sex and that makes you mad. Your last two posts read like a concession because they are; you said a lot of dumb shit and now you’re being confronted with it so all you can do is cuck away just like you did last thread.

No, retard. I'm not saying it's "impossible" I say it sucks out the tension when the monsters can be this easily defeated since it trivializes them. Want to have bitches karate chop monsters? Fine with me, just don't expect me to find your movie scary.

They’re not easily defeated Jesus Christ, you didn’t even watch the movie did you?
Horror has always contained elements of action, because defending yourself, being attacked by something, necessarily entails action. This is like how you mistakenly characterize Blue Velvet as horror; it’s not horror, it’s a thriller, and thrillers contain elements of horror. this would be like calling Seven a horror movie. It’s a laughably stupid take.

Elements, retard, not full-on overpowering monsters like it's an action flick. You're all always bitching about muh stronk females who beat everyone in modern movies, but this shit gets a pass. Fuck off.
Sleepaway Camp is a horror flick about how trannies are dangerous, it's kino.
Angela isn't a tranny. You guys either haven't watched the film, or have the film literacy of someone to whom the peak of film entertainment is baby sensory videos.

Then they're not a trans as they lack the required innate dysphoria, aren't they? Angela is not a tranny. Angela is a victim of a psychotic, mindbroken doctor.

You're retarded if you don't consider men who take hormones to become women to be trannies. Everyone else considers them trannies, they consider themselves trannies, if you don't then you're just a fuckin moron. No use arguing with you.
i liked the guy walking out to see a child nude holding a severed head and his first thought isn't "oh no that child cut off someones head" but instead "it's a boy!"
Always heard it was some cool horror film. It was goofy as fuck. Turned it off when the rubber bad guys turned up.what do they even eat normally how would there be so many of them alive
i love Henry but where exactly are they getting those Cassavetes comparisons from? because its largely stripped down and actor driven? also i would highly recommend Schramm for a similar style of film focusing on a psycho https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-h2nxuXk2k
watch lower budget 70s movies and youll see plenty of that look, anything shot on 16mm and blown up to 35mm, theyre not all going to be very good movies though. its impossible to replicate that look with digital.
I really appreciate the second movie.
Tobe Hooper knew he couldn't catch lightning in a bottle twice, so he just made something completely different that works in its own way.
this and the first movie make for an endlessly entertaining double feature every halloween because of how different they are. never get tired them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CZCKP-H4C8
I hate how the only media after 1 to remember that Leatherface's masks are representing different personalities is motherfucking Mortal Kombat X. It's such a cool aspect that separates him from the likes of Michael Myers and Jason and everyone just ignores it.
>pretending this movie wasn't the scariest movie
What competition does it have? First movie is way too cheesy and amateurish to be scary, and the other two movies are straight up comedies that ditched trying to be scary.
Guess there's that new one too.
I didn't know he was Christian. Not the insufferable born-again American type, but the insufferable devout Catholic type like Mark Wahlberg.
He was drunk at a party at TIFF and he was interrupting my conversation with this other actor because he overheard the guy mention that he grew up going to church but stopped.
Justin Long kept wanting to interject and debate the guy but the other actor didn't want to talk to him.
This was a short story stretched into a feature length film. >what if the dudebro daterape predator that preys on women at the bar who are also drinking was actually the prey all along
At first I liked this new Art The Clown. But then I watched All Hallows Eve and I seem to prefer the first actor more. New actor is great at acting, but the first actor looks scarier. The first actor is big, like a monster, and you immediately feel threatened by him, that he could rip your head off, which along with his grimaces makes the character much more interesting and creepy
I think the ending is just cooler.
Neither of the Terrifier movies for all their edginess had the balls to kill children like that, that's automatically a win.
how does that make them not horror movies. horror is a broad category. the original tomb raider definitely veers into horror territory at times, especially at the end when you are fighting skinless demon monsters.
Yeah I remember picking up on the plot twist early because it became very apparent that nobody ever talks to the sister directly outside of a single scene where the dad is seemingly yelling at himself.
I imagine the original did a much better job with masking it since people praise it so much.
I turned it off a bit over halfway through. A serial killer describes his influences and process as each "piece" becomes grander. Don't need 3 hours of that.
>Ginger Snaps is a hidden gem
Somehow, saying "I've just come here from Reddit" would've been a less obvious way of saying you're from Reddit that what you said here.
Agreed, for me the most perfect movie of all time, not from a favourite point of view but because everything is flawless, I could not name a more perfect movie
I liked it, but the human cult in the third act felt pretty cliché and rushed. The monster was cool and they did a good job teasing it with shots where it's actually in the frame already but you don't see it til it moves.
I am angry... ANGRY ABOUT ELVES!
For real tho, they're very popular movies. Maybe the genre is full of so much shit that these are the gems that stand out.
Just watched Day of the Dead a few days ago. I fucking love Captain Rhodes. He's made out to be the antagonist because of his short fuse and disdain for the scientists, but the more you learn about how much the scientists are just yanking his chain, you start to realize he's just a dude in over his head and in an ungodly situation.
Speaking of home invasion, Hush is really weird. >heroine tells a masked killer that she doesn't know what he looks like so he doesn't have to kill her >he just removes his mask
That scene was legitimately great and if the movie had more cool moments like that, I would've actually liked it. But after that scene the movie just becomes a really boring cat and mouse chase.
>top left
A classic jumpscare, one of the creepiest shots in cinema.
Reminds me of Arboghast’s death in Psycho.
Some people don’t understand jumpscares, or don’t consider them valid.. lol. Tell it to Hitchcock and the other great directors.
It's hilarious how hard people rage at such a good movie, genuine 10/10 for me, As Above So Below is cool too, I just think underground stuff is creepy
yeah dude and it was like the first film in history to actually get permission to use the paris catacombs and I've been afraid of that shit since that episode of scariest places on earth aired in the late 90s showing the explorer who got lost in the catacombs with the creepy voiceover and shit
Do you actually get scared when watching horror movies? I have never felt the scary emotion because I know it is a movie and nothing of the deaths, or the way that deaths happen, happens in real life. I like watching horror movies because they are funny, in a true sense. A giant shark? Buried. It would be captured instantly by the marines. Spectral forces o ghosts that appears on the middle of the dark? Buried. It is a fact that ghosts or paranormal things occurs only under specific circunstances; like a movie. A monster that kills you when sleeping? Buried, REM phase during sleeping does not intervene with others because it is a personal process and not everyone can get to REM phases. Aliens and monsters from outer space? Buried. They are not interested on us, don' t even thinking on visiting us. They don't care about humankind progress.
The exorcist? Saw? Chucky? I don't get why people get scared of horrors movies if anything from there occurs in real life (and you could say the same of every genre, but at least pirates, cowboys and scientifics exists, or could have existed.
No I don't I like them because they're creative and allow people to explore all kinds of whacky ideas, and I can still root for a character when they're well written.
As I said in one of the posts above, I kind of got creeped out by the gore in House That Jack Built and pretty much any graphic kill in Hannibal TV series. I guess there were a few more surreal kills on Dexter that were creepy as well (the horseman in season 6, as shit as season 6 was that scene was great https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGh2rW-eSfk), but fewer than I wished for.
Outside of that, not really.
>turbosperg unironically spends two days straight just seething about a movie he doesn't like
I'd get it if it was absolutely terrible shit that has no business being posted outside of Wrong board, but for a semi decent horror movie at worst it's just odd.
rewatching it currently, it's somehow even better than I remembered it being.
very comfy too, with good acting, good effects, and despite being "shaky handheld cam" it is never disorienting or too shaky or anything.
Say what you want about the Descent poster but he brings a golden age Cinemaphile spirit that is truly lacking. It’s like a throwback to 2011, I for one miss the autism and elitism of golden age Cinemaphile

Overrated, but has a couple of atmospheric bits. The payoff sucks.

You did let it stand. You had no response.
>T-THE MONSTERS LOSE SO THEY’RE WEAK!
So laughable, you’re just so retarded Jesus.So the xenomorph from Alien is a weakling.
Holy fucking shitm ou're a genuine grade-A idiot, no wonder you like this shit movie. Here, retard. I'll repeat it really really slowly.
I doooon't remeeeember Xenomooorph getting his neck snaaaapped by Ripley's bare haaaands. Or getting his eyes gouged out. Or hey, how about that Alien makes it very VERY clear that engaging Xenomorph in 1v1 combat is genuine 100% suicide. Yes, retard. When a hero has a physical advantage over the villains enough to take them 1v4, it becomes cheesy action. It's just Army of Darkness fags don't cry like bitches when I call their movie action, trying to convince me that their movie is super-scary.
If you're dumb enough to equate the two, I'm only reinforced in my belief that The Descent is brainlets' favorite horror movie.
Right back at you.
>Right ba-ACK
>I doooon't remeeeember Xenomooorph getting his neck snaaaapped by Ripley's bare haaaands. Or getting his eyes gouged out. Or hey, how about that Alien makes it very VERY clear that engaging Xenomorph in 1v1 combat is genuine 100% suicide. Yes, retard. When a hero has a physical advantage over the villains enough to take them 1v4, it becomes cheesy action.
Damn almost like there’s a power difference between the Xenomorph and the cave dwellers.. so if something isn’t as strong as the xenomorph it’s weak, and zombies aren’t good horror because they can be killed en masse. Your reasoning is retarded. You make no sense and I just don’t take you seriously lol
>almost like there’s a power difference between the Xenomorph and the cave dwellers..
Finally, you're beginning to catch on. This is such an easy fix as well. Almost like protagonists being stronger than supposed alpha predators is an issue.
>zombies aren’t good horror
See? Finally you understand. Zombieshit for the most part is "me and my buddies gonna get drunk and watch a gory action flick" cinema as a proper horror it kind of sucks.
I wish that you live to see the Terminator sequel that has Sarah Connor killing dozens of CGI T-800s with a crowbar, Gordon Freeman style. This is my curse on you.
>You didn’t.
I did. Your fault for being too mentally deficient to comprehend the simplest things pretty much chewed out for you.
Is there any reason you failed to address your lie that I said you hate women, and the actual critique that was issued? You said if a woman can defend herself 1v1 in any encounter, then the movie “fails at horror.” Can you explain this retardation or are you just gonna keep dodging and cuck away again like you did last thread?
>I'm the only person who understands what makes horror work.
Imagine saying this without a hint of irony lmao. Your cognitive dissonance, lack of self-awareness and unearned ego is astonishing.
It’s as if the anon can’t express a single idea completely. he always trails off into this sort-of word salad. “THE MOVIE SUCKS BECAUSE… IT JUST DOES OKAY, FUCK YOU!” He just doesn’t have the mental capacity to articulate his ideas. It must be very frustrating.
I articulated them perfectly last thread, but you just happened to be an absolute dumbass who fails to grasp what I said even today. Yesterday your schizo delusions drove you to conclusion that I hate women, today you can't grasp the idea that monsters dying like bitches is not the same as a nearly unstoppable Xenomorph who pretty much needed to be tricked to be defeated instead of being overpowered in a straight-up fight.
Must be embarrassing to be you, I recommend suicide.
>tranime
You could've just said you were retarded from the start and spared me the time I wasted on replying to you.
>You could've just sACK
>I articulated them perfectly last thread
You didn’t. And you linked to the thread so everyone can read through it and see you didn’t. They’ll be able to tell which posts are you by your schizophrenic rambling writing style.
>Yesterday your schizo delusions drove you to conclusion that I hate women
I didn’t say you hate women, I mocked you for saying this;
> If you're gonna make a horror movie where your "strong woman" beats enemy 1v1, you already failed at horror. It's that. Damn. Simple.
Which we know is not true. Women have defended themselves many times in horror movies and irl too, sometimes against men and sometimes against multiple attackers. Anything else, freak?
>women defended themselves in movies
Do remind me, when exactly? What horror movies have villains feel completely underpowered to the point that the final girl looks like another girlboss chick and not someone fighting for survival?
Wes Craven is allowed to get away with Ghostface looking like a joke, because Scream movies are comedic at their core.
>in real life
And in real life any slasher would've already been in prison or shot by the feds. Doesn't make for a tense and exciting movie, innit?
>y-you lie
>He's angry that there's women, that's the extent of it.
Uh-huh, nagger.
Why are you replying to posts from a previous thread that you've already replied to? Are you really this shaken up over the movie?
> And in real life any slasher would've already been in prison or shot by the feds. Doesn't make for a tense and exciting movie, innit?
Well it’s a good thing that doesn’t happen in the movie, m’retard, I’m just saying there’s tons of videos of women like suplexing grown ass men and successfully defending themselves against not just 1v1 but multiple attackers. You say it’s impossible because you don’t have sex and that makes you mad. Your last two posts read like a concession because they are; you said a lot of dumb shit and now you’re being confronted with it so all you can do is cuck away just like you did last thread.
No, retard. I'm not saying it's "impossible" I say it sucks out the tension when the monsters can be this easily defeated since it trivializes them. Want to have bitches karate chop monsters? Fine with me, just don't expect me to find your movie scary.
They’re not easily defeated Jesus Christ, you didn’t even watch the movie did you?
Horror has always contained elements of action, because defending yourself, being attacked by something, necessarily entails action. This is like how you mistakenly characterize Blue Velvet as horror; it’s not horror, it’s a thriller, and thrillers contain elements of horror. this would be like calling Seven a horror movie. It’s a laughably stupid take.
>They’re not easily defeated Jesus Christ
Yes, they are and yes, sadly I have.
>Horror has always contained elements of action
Elements, retard, not full-on overpowering monsters like it's an action flick. You're all always bitching about muh stronk females who beat everyone in modern movies, but this shit gets a pass. Fuck off.
I see you've never encountered an aspie before
Funny how you have nothing to defend the shit movie with, so you just keep crying about "muh autists".
There's no point in arguing with idiots since they'll just deflect everything and carry on with their autistic ways
Exactly what you've been doing this entire thread, yes. Glad we finally admitted to that.
And still I remain hopeful.
You're a retarded aspie and multiple people already pointed it out. Your sole function is to keep us entertained.
I preferred The Cave
>The Cave
You are the only person I've ever seen mention The Cave, ever in the past 18 years (good god, the cave was 18 years ago).
Is that the one that ends mid rape?
Sleepaway Camp
With the OP pic, figures this is the kind of a thread where people would enjoy a film about a tranny.
Sleepaway Camp is a horror flick about how trannies are dangerous, it's kino.
Angela isn't a tranny. You guys either haven't watched the film, or have the film literacy of someone to whom the peak of film entertainment is baby sensory videos.
>Angela isn't a tranny
He/she was forced to be a tranny, just like a lot of kids nowadays.
>forced to be
Then they're not a trans as they lack the required innate dysphoria, aren't they? Angela is not a tranny. Angela is a victim of a psychotic, mindbroken doctor.
>the required innate dysphoria
You're buying into tranny propaganda by saying they're all like that. There's loads of fetishists and weirdos who don't have "dysphoria".
>There's loads of fetishists and weirdos who don't have "dysphoria".
Yeah and they're not actually trans, they're pretending to be. Are you fucking retarded?
>Yeah and they're not actually trans,
No true scotsman. If they're a man who thinks they're a girl and dresses like a girl they're a tranny.
>No true scotsman.
Oh okay, you are fucking retarded.
You're retarded if you don't consider men who take hormones to become women to be trannies. Everyone else considers them trannies, they consider themselves trannies, if you don't then you're just a fuckin moron. No use arguing with you.
Heroin isn't a hormone.
The ending shot genuinely gives me chills. Grannies truly are the most terrifying monster.
i liked the guy walking out to see a child nude holding a severed head and his first thought isn't "oh no that child cut off someones head" but instead "it's a boy!"
masterpiece
Always better than you remembered. A super fun watch
He's literally me, fr fr
Always heard it was some cool horror film. It was goofy as fuck. Turned it off when the rubber bad guys turned up.what do they even eat normally how would there be so many of them alive
Two of my favorite movies.
Unironically my favorite portrayal of a sociopath alongside Angst and Sporloos.
Michael Rooker gives a kino performance, and Tom Towles was great too as Otis.
i love Henry but where exactly are they getting those Cassavetes comparisons from? because its largely stripped down and actor driven? also i would highly recommend Schramm for a similar style of film focusing on a psycho https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y-h2nxuXk2k
I guess I love you too.
Absolutely great taste
GOAT
I was absolutely shocked by how good a movie this was, not even just as a horror movie, but in general
Genuine 10/10.
Same happened to us. We were expecting just another low budget cult movie and ended up being genuinely impressed.
It's that ultra raw look and feel. Rarely seen it replicated since.
watch lower budget 70s movies and youll see plenty of that look, anything shot on 16mm and blown up to 35mm, theyre not all going to be very good movies though. its impossible to replicate that look with digital.
I should have mentioned, the raw look while also being extremely well shot
I really appreciate the second movie.
Tobe Hooper knew he couldn't catch lightning in a bottle twice, so he just made something completely different that works in its own way.
this and the first movie make for an endlessly entertaining double feature every halloween because of how different they are. never get tired them. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-CZCKP-H4C8
>live in Texas
>haven't been chainsawed in half yet
>mfw
No one in that movie got chainsawed in half
Way to ruin it for me you homosexual.
I hate how the only media after 1 to remember that Leatherface's masks are representing different personalities is motherfucking Mortal Kombat X. It's such a cool aspect that separates him from the likes of Michael Myers and Jason and everyone just ignores it.
Evil Dead nerds keep seething and pretending this movie wasn't the scariest movie in the franchise.
>movies
>scary
Lmfao. The movie is shit by the way.
Good morning sir.
Whiter than you will ever be, Ahmed.
doesn't hold a candle
He doesn't have that cute cock lust though.
>pretending this movie wasn't the scariest movie
What competition does it have? First movie is way too cheesy and amateurish to be scary, and the other two movies are straight up comedies that ditched trying to be scary.
Guess there's that new one too.
Still no adaptation because 90's Christians can't write scary stories supposedly.
I fucking hate Justin Long.
Your middling temper is rather short with Long?
I didn't know he was Christian. Not the insufferable born-again American type, but the insufferable devout Catholic type like Mark Wahlberg.
He was drunk at a party at TIFF and he was interrupting my conversation with this other actor because he overheard the guy mention that he grew up going to church but stopped.
Justin Long kept wanting to interject and debate the guy but the other actor didn't want to talk to him.
This was a short story stretched into a feature length film.
>what if the dudebro daterape predator that preys on women at the bar who are also drinking was actually the prey all along
remake is kino as well
The best saterical comidy that I have ever seen.
Testorama.
La Casa del Fin de los Tiempos
As far as Spanish films go, this one was breddy gut.
Joe Spinell is great in this. Sad how he died if you read about it.
He wanted to do a sequel but sadly it'll never be.
i watched it last night
scariest horror ever
def scariest found footage ever
None and i mean none of the horror movies here hold a candle to REC
This picture is too cute, I have to keep posting it any time a horror thread happens.
Post more behind the scenes horror pics.
At first I liked this new Art The Clown. But then I watched All Hallows Eve and I seem to prefer the first actor more. New actor is great at acting, but the first actor looks scarier. The first actor is big, like a monster, and you immediately feel threatened by him, that he could rip your head off, which along with his grimaces makes the character much more interesting and creepy
Prefer the Terrifier actor but the first guy was still good in All Hallow's Eve. The final segment of that was great.
I think the ending is just cooler.
Neither of the Terrifier movies for all their edginess had the balls to kill children like that, that's automatically a win.
>Fridge body
Yuck
u wot
BRB my dick is ringing.
Put it on silent
tum
She was a real find
I can't believe she's 41
To this day the only time I've had an unironic "bone chilling" experience was the scene with the ghost kid with the weird face.
This and As Above So Below are just fucking Tomb Raider movies, not horror lmao.
Go play Shadow and it will feel the same.
how does that make them not horror movies. horror is a broad category. the original tomb raider definitely veers into horror territory at times, especially at the end when you are fighting skinless demon monsters.
"Tomb Raider movies" isn't a genre.
What was the shitty American version of this called again? The Uninvited?
yup
not even sweaty elizabeth banks could save it
Yeah I remember picking up on the plot twist early because it became very apparent that nobody ever talks to the sister directly outside of a single scene where the dad is seemingly yelling at himself.
I imagine the original did a much better job with masking it since people praise it so much.
Liked this one, reminded me of The Loved Ones.
Sell me on it.
not all of the non-linear segments are great but the ones that are really shine
Watch Noroi if you haven't.
>ECTOPLASMIC WORMS
oh I have
>tfw I walk around my house screaming HAYAKUUUUUUUUuuuu repeatedly
I wish more serial killer movies did something like this, I love "artistic" gore.
shit was way too repetitive.
The movie itself or that kind of gore?
Because if the latter, I like it, it's pretty creepy-looking to me.
the movie
I turned it off a bit over halfway through. A serial killer describes his influences and process as each "piece" becomes grander. Don't need 3 hours of that.
Watch Hannibal. you'll love it.
spooked me
Loved the titties.
That movie had booba?
modern classic, you HAVE to see this if you haven't already!
>Netflix
Instantly shit.
He ain't inside, he's outside! He's on the fuckin' driveway.
Ginger Snaps is a hidden gem and deserves more praise
>Hidden gem
Not on Cinemaphile, newfriend
y'all crackas see it posted on Cinemaphile all the time but none of you actually give it a shot. So the films remains a hidden gem
Not in Canada either. Everyone's seen it, probably cus it ended up on TV all the time because of broadcasting laws or something back in the day.
and its sequels too
Cute Tatty
>Ginger Snaps is a hidden gem
Somehow, saying "I've just come here from Reddit" would've been a less obvious way of saying you're from Reddit that what you said here.
This one is simply perfect. Literally flawless.
>no women anywhere in the cast
Yep.
you need to go back
>Redditors after spending 2 days on Cinemaphile because of reddit lockdowns
>"Please, I want to go back."
Heh sorry redditors didn't mean to scare yous so bad
watched this last night and it's still so fucking good
Agreed, for me the most perfect movie of all time, not from a favourite point of view but because everything is flawless, I could not name a more perfect movie
10/10
I liked it
It was fine. I've rewatched it a few times.
deeply comfy
I liked it, but the human cult in the third act felt pretty cliché and rushed. The monster was cool and they did a good job teasing it with shots where it's actually in the frame already but you don't see it til it moves.
>but the human cult in the third act felt pretty cliché and rushed
wait until you find out what the 'cult' was in the book it's based on
Lake Mungo
The movie that made me love found footage.
The problem is 95% of found footage isn't like that at all, they're just a normal narrative horror told conventionally, but with shitty camerawork.
Is it true it's just twin peaks
Ravenous (2017) is a true netflix gem outta all the shit they've ever came out with, doesn't get mentioned enough
Can you homosexuals shut up and name some more obscure shit that's actually good? Tryna build a list here
looking for some obscure hidden gems?
>Suspiria
>The Thing
>Gingersnaps
>Evil Dead
>Day of the Dead
>The Beyond
This, there aren't many people who have heard of all of these movies
Yous suck but I've not seen the beyond so
thanks I guess
Those aren't obscure, god damn that makes me ANGRY.
woah, we got ourselves a real film buff here
I am angry... ANGRY ABOUT ELVES!
For real tho, they're very popular movies. Maybe the genre is full of so much shit that these are the gems that stand out.
The Shining is a film you rarely if ever see mentioned, but i think it's pretty great, personally.
Jason X.
Triangle(2009)
Just watched Day of the Dead a few days ago. I fucking love Captain Rhodes. He's made out to be the antagonist because of his short fuse and disdain for the scientists, but the more you learn about how much the scientists are just yanking his chain, you start to realize he's just a dude in over his head and in an ungodly situation.
Speaking of home invasion, Hush is really weird.
>heroine tells a masked killer that she doesn't know what he looks like so he doesn't have to kill her
>he just removes his mask
That scene was legitimately great and if the movie had more cool moments like that, I would've actually liked it. But after that scene the movie just becomes a really boring cat and mouse chase.
**
I don't know how you guys can watch horror. I just don't enjoy getting spooked by a kino!
Undisputedly the best single scare
>directed by the author of the novel, who was not a film director
Neat
also directed a movie called the ninth configuration, which, while not a horror movie, is also very good
film director bros, why are we getting mogged by non film directors who direct films
You rang?
>top left
A classic jumpscare, one of the creepiest shots in cinema.
Reminds me of Arboghast’s death in Psycho.
Some people don’t understand jumpscares, or don’t consider them valid.. lol. Tell it to Hitchcock and the other great directors.
It's hilarious how hard people rage at such a good movie, genuine 10/10 for me, As Above So Below is cool too, I just think underground stuff is creepy
Loved that second film, thought going through Dante's inferno was cool as shit
yeah dude and it was like the first film in history to actually get permission to use the paris catacombs and I've been afraid of that shit since that episode of scariest places on earth aired in the late 90s showing the explorer who got lost in the catacombs with the creepy voiceover and shit
since we're posting good movies that filtered homosexuals
lmao
?
I like it.
Watch the remake. It's just as good. :^)
anything from carpenter is great
LOL
one of the best zombie kinos
I enjoy
Do you actually get scared when watching horror movies? I have never felt the scary emotion because I know it is a movie and nothing of the deaths, or the way that deaths happen, happens in real life. I like watching horror movies because they are funny, in a true sense. A giant shark? Buried. It would be captured instantly by the marines. Spectral forces o ghosts that appears on the middle of the dark? Buried. It is a fact that ghosts or paranormal things occurs only under specific circunstances; like a movie. A monster that kills you when sleeping? Buried, REM phase during sleeping does not intervene with others because it is a personal process and not everyone can get to REM phases. Aliens and monsters from outer space? Buried. They are not interested on us, don' t even thinking on visiting us. They don't care about humankind progress.
The exorcist? Saw? Chucky? I don't get why people get scared of horrors movies if anything from there occurs in real life (and you could say the same of every genre, but at least pirates, cowboys and scientifics exists, or could have existed.
No I don't I like them because they're creative and allow people to explore all kinds of whacky ideas, and I can still root for a character when they're well written.
Also you are retardo
As I said in one of the posts above, I kind of got creeped out by the gore in House That Jack Built and pretty much any graphic kill in Hannibal TV series. I guess there were a few more surreal kills on Dexter that were creepy as well (the horseman in season 6, as shit as season 6 was that scene was great https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGh2rW-eSfk), but fewer than I wished for.
Outside of that, not really.
>same fucking movies posted in every horror general thread
Fuck this board
>Posts nothing
>Whines
For me this is astoundingly good for its time. 5x scarier than Halloween and jaws. The antagonist is very impactful
love this and the first reboot
3rd reboot is one of the worst movies ive seen
Watched Speak no evil and felt absolutely destroyed throughout the entire movie
Im 40min in and why THE FUCK do they go back because of a fucking toy bunny this stupid cunt child forgot the second time already
I’m mad af alread and nothing happened so far
60min In…why are the still there??? Even for Low horror movie standards that’s retarded
What a piece of shit
Lost 90min of my life when I could have just read the Wikipedia article
That's what I always do.
>y-you'll spoil the movie for yours-ACK
Spoilers can't ruin good movie.
Anon you are a fucking idiot
Just from skimming the plot summary, this seems like a stealth anti-immigration film to me.
It is.
pic unrelated?
I first saw the UK version of this that was like "fuck you she died in the cave lol" and I've never felt so wronged
>turbosperg unironically spends two days straight just seething about a movie he doesn't like
I'd get it if it was absolutely terrible shit that has no business being posted outside of Wrong board, but for a semi decent horror movie at worst it's just odd.
The Bay
Eden Lake
Ils (french original version of eden lake)
for me it's
It Comes At Night
more like Nothing Comes At Night
Sci-fi makes everything better
This is the only good Friday the 13th movie btw not counting the Freddy one
rewatching it currently, it's somehow even better than I remembered it being.
very comfy too, with good acting, good effects, and despite being "shaky handheld cam" it is never disorienting or too shaky or anything.
Say what you want about the Descent poster but he brings a golden age Cinemaphile spirit that is truly lacking. It’s like a throwback to 2011, I for one miss the autism and elitism of golden age Cinemaphile
It's a throwback to barneyfag if anything. Guy was probably forced to watch the Descent for several months straight in some rape dungeon.
>"You've got a lot of guts, Oscar!"
whatever you do, do not watch willow creek. fucking dogshit movie. there is no bigfoot horror kino; they're all shit.
poughkeepsie tapes kinda sucks but it has some creepy imagery and I'm a sucker for found footage
