Anyone have any interesting thoughts on this puppy?? As far as I am aware, it is one of the first major films to feature the type of twisted theology it has, with all the factions of angels fighting for our destiny. Since then, there have been a lot of films and TV shows that have drawn upon this general idea, like Legion (2010), many seasons of the CW TV show Supernatural, probably Constantine (2005), the TV show Dominion... I'm sure there are a lot that I have missed. And, that's not even m... Continue »

I highly recommend playing the Kenny Rogers song "Through the Years" while watching this Carnage Count video, showing Leatherface and a few other random psychos killing lots and lots of people through the years, in all the TCM movies in the franchise (I think) from the early 70s to today.


Here's the song to listen to. If you can't play it while you're watching a video at the same time, on your device... um, I don't know, ask a buddy to play one of... Continue »

Well it's about bloody time!

Another year, another Turkey Challenge come and gone. The older I get, the more bittersweet that is. On the one hand, I can finally watch whatever the hell I want again. On the other, there’s something magical about this challenge. We look forward to it all year and it brings us true joy while we play. You know why it brings joy? Because it brings liberation. All year, watching a movie like Miami Magma might feel like a waste of time, but during that one month, we can watch and enjoy that movi... Continue »

I haven't seen this in awhile, but I remember it making an impression on me. It's not exciting, it's just supposed to be disturbing and sad. But, I'm mentioning it here because two of the Ukrainian guys who have been in the news so much lately have been reminding of it. I'm talking about, of course... Giuliani's and our old pals Lev and Igor. But, I don't mean this in any political way. Really. I'm just saying, if you're looking for a movie about Eastern European or Russian hoods, and you'...

Hey guys! Since we are in the last month of the year, and decade, I thought we could have a thread for Challenge Ideas, Trivia Ideas, it even games! I have been talking with @box and @ballz about challenges and we have so good ideas, but we want to hear from you guys! So if you have some challenges ideas let us know here and we can have fun challenges next year! For sure we will have the Trash, Turkey, Sci-Fi, and everyone's favorite the Horror one. But in the months those aren't we would love t... Continue »

We all have a different sense of humor. Well there is people around with no or little sense of humor but I guess (hope) they are a minority. We need humor otherwise this planet would be a sad place.

I'm just curious what kind of comedy you like. Me I don't have a clear favorite. Satire is not really my cup of tea, as it often requires to be up to date on a certain subject. When a subject does not interest me I'm not really going to catch the latest news on it. I already expressed a few times t... Continue »

In 1984, a few random-ass ingredients crashed into each other. The great Bob Clark directing, Stallone acting/screenwriting/singing, and Dolly Parton and her huge jugs would proudly unite to bring us all a film about what it is to be a cowboy singer.

So a New York business mogul is desperate to bang Jake (Dolly), but she's stuck in a contract with this "villain". If I were him, I'd want to bang her too. Her tits steal every scene that they're in, and her waist is an anomoly. And this guy wants... Continue »

1) Still use IMDb ratings.

1.0 = 6 points.
1.1-1.9 = 5 points.
2.0-2.9 = 4 points.
3.0-3.9 = 3 points.
4.0-4.4 = 2 points.
4.5-4.9 = 1 point.


2) First time view = 1 point.

3) Can be any genre.

4) Trifectas. Yes. Director actors, and series. For director and actors you can bunch siblings and parent / children or grandparent / grandchildren.

5) A movie can only count towards one trifecta.

Single Trifecta - 5 points

Double Trifecta - 7 points

Triple Trifecta - 9 poin... Continue »

Just rewatched this one, and I don't know what's up sfpx's butt. This movie has all the makings of a trash epic. It's extremely boring, drawn out, and our protagonist Herschell reminds me a lot of our best friend Tromafreak. Of course, they both live in Florida and turn into evil turkeys when they smoke pot, but that's beside the point.

The point is that this movie is awful. The lighting and sound design are awful. The redundant stinger sound effect when the turkey is killing is awful. The edit... Continue »

From 1976. The idea of this episode was that everyone thought there was a ghost running amok in these people's house, but it was actually a girl who didn't really know that she had telekinesis, and was causing all kinds of mayhem via her unconscious mind, as she slept. The commentary here says it was inspired by The Exorcist, but of course it had to be at least partly inspired by Carrie. The family name of the telekinetic girl is Cory. I mean, come on.

check this out, this is a great resource. You can find enough short stories and novellas on this page to keep you happily reading for the rest of your life. I was looking for a webpage or blog about 90s horror authors, novels, and short stories, which I know very little about. But I found this... good enough for me.

Hey guys, I am just curious about something. Recently I had my mom 'borrow' some of my medicine and use it herself. I found out this morning, and called her on it. She said she had every right to take it because she needed it, and she was going to replace it. I was completely pissed off, and told her that under no circumstances should anyone take anyone else's medicine, and I got called selfish and told that I was overreacting, and she did nothing wrong. I guess what I am saying is do you guys t... Continue »

Bought:

Road Games (Blu-ray)
Return to Macon County (Blu-ray)
The Fan (Blu-ray) pre-ordered

Watched (rentals or YouTube):

Gremlins (first time seeing this, believe it or not)
The Poison Rose

We have a tear-off Calendar with at the back of each page jokes, sayings, information about celebrations, traditions etc. When the 11th November started tearing of the 10th November page there was this joke on the back side

Translated from Dutch language

A Cannibal once asked an army officer who was eating the enormous amount of human flesh of the victims of the wars.
The officer explained that white people did not eat human flesh.
The cannibal shouted: What? You are really barbaric! You kill... Continue »

I'm not sure if anyone here has seen any of the AHS seasons, but I am a huge fan of this show! Most seasons are really good, my least favorite would have to be Roanoke. Anyways, whenever they announced that season 9 was going to be an 80's slasher theme I was totally excited! 80's slasher movies are one of my favorites!

@Pick & I were able to watch the first episode on Thursday and I was really impressed. The acting was cute & cheesy like a normal 80's slasher. I think they have ... Continue »

Interpret this as question as you will. You can tell that the media has a political agenda in almost anything they say or do. You know Hollywood has an agenda based on representing minorities or Oscar-baits or whatever the fuck there is inbetween. Everyone has an agenda, so to keep things phrased more simply... What are you working on?

We're in the midst of the holiday season, so everyone is probably busy working. I know I am, because I work at a dollar store with all kinds of Thanksgiving and... Continue »

This year I included movies from another challenge at DVD Talk, as I wanted to get a larger sampling. They have additional set challenges, so some movies may be over-represented as compared to one with no additional challenges, as is the case here.
You can view it online (I think) if you want, but I would just download (100% virus free, but feel free to scan with your antivirus if desired) as it is set up so you... Continue »

Early short film from Ari Aster, who would go on to direct Hereditary and Midsommar. It's a pretty fucked up tale of sexual abuse, but not like you've seen it before.

A few days late but I did manage to watch and buy a few movies recently.

Slender Man (2017)
The Dark (2018)
Private School (1983) Blu-ray (not a horror movie)
Nightmare Beach (1987) Blu-ray

And I just ordered Blu-rays of Berserker and Watch Me When I Kill.

For me, the ultimate is "The Amityville Horror' movie series. There is really no reason for this movie to have any sequels and/or spinoffs, let alone close to twenty.
What other movie franchises exist that probably shouldn't?

I know I didn't officially participate in the October challenge on TE. I organized one for the Dutch speaking horror fans which started earlier (late September) and went on longer (until November 10th) than the usual. It gave more people the opportunity to reach the 31 goal. The winner eventually watched 116 movies. 10 from the 18 participants reached the end goal. I was 4th with 85 viewings I didn't really kept track exactly of the amount of FTV and RW but I guess 90% were FTV.

From the FTV's... Continue »

Does anyone have a TV show or movie that they turn on because it gives them comfort? Or is that just me? A show that when you turn on, no matter how many time you have watched it, you are instantly focused, and forgetting the issues going on in your life.

As how that has gotten you through your darkest times, and I guess as one might say, a security banket?

My life has been pretty fucked up recently. No matter how hard I try to pick my self up, I end up knocked down. But I tunred on my favori... Continue »
