Well, they are some of mine. What are... Continue »

Perhaps we're in a drought, but to me, it seems particularly dry in the forum/message community. Here I am, stalking other IMDB replacements ImdbArchive, MovieChat, and Imdb2, and none of them are bustling with activity. Tis a shame, really. I was hoping at least one of these places would take off.

This leads to the burning question of what people yearn for. What is the desire? What do people want? Are we not doing our jobs enough to prompt user interaction, or is the market just a fad that's fading away? Is facebook stealing all the glory?

Let's see if we can compile the definitive list (ill be missing a few titles and by few i mean a lot) :

Guinea Pig
Wrong Turn
Final Destination
Scream
I know what you did last summer
Urban Legends
Halloween
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Friday the 13th
Pupper Master
Child's Play
Hellraiser
Tremors
Hostel
Feast
Alien
A Nightmare on Elm Street
Saw
Evil Dead
Jaws
Amityvile
Resident Evil

I haven't seen any of these.

Nosferatu the Vampyre (1979)
Blood for Dracula (1974)
Count Dracula (1977)
Psychomania A.K.A The Death Wheelers (1973)
Def by Temptation (1990)
Wasting Away A.K.A Aaah! Zombies!! (2007)
Love at First Bite (1979)
Children of the Night (1991)
Dracula (1974)
The Dead Next Door (1989)
Ombre roventi A.K.A Shadow of Illusion (1970)

I'm not very into anime but I absolutely love this sersies. Just wondering if anyone else has watched it.

What rare or OOP titles do you own?

Only one that I can really think of in my collection is the Unsolved Mysteries Ultimate Collection DVD boxset. Bought it for $80 about 8 years ago and now it's OOP and super expensive online.

Also, does anyone still own a VCR? I bought a used one cheap last year and have gotten back into the VHS swing a bit. Video stores were the shit back in the day, but too bad they're few and far between now.

K, so I was watching Hardgore last night, which works best as an interesting oddity ~ the combination of hardcore porn, graphic violence and surrealism ~ but it's a pretty slow moving affair, with the energy of a sloth and the horror scenes, while decent, are spread far too thinly apart.

Are there any horror/porn hybrids that genuinely work as a horror film? I doubt it, since it seems the whole point of these films are the sex scenes, but they're often much too long and not even all that ho... Continue »

It doesn't look too bad. I like how they're kind of taking things in a different direction, but I'm still iffy on the 1950s settings. We finally brought this series back to the present, and they throw it back in the past?

Haunted house movies can be extremely creepy and atmospheric when done right, the tension builds and builds, they grab you and don't let you go. They need to be precisely and brilliantly choreographed. They can also be a hell of a lot of fun. The haunted house sub-genre remains, quite possibly, my favorite of the genre. So here is the best haunted house flicks that I seen (rated 8 or higher) in order:

Don't Go to Sleep (1982 TV Movie): My favorite and perhaps the most overlooked... Continue »

Naturally, there are so many horror movies released each year that it's difficult to see them all. Subsequently, some great horror films have, and continue to, slip under the radar. Mutants is one of such movies. The breathtaking French countryside that serves as a background to a deadly virus that spreads through France, that turns its unfortunate victims into unstoppable flesh-eating mutants, but unlike other Zombie mov...

I love this guy's work. I hate to to use the clichéd phrase, but I feel he is a tad underrated. I really like how his films have remarkable, gritty quality to them. The characters in his films, tend to be, for the most part, caught up in self-destructive patterns. He often collaborates with screenwriter Nicholas St.John, who is also very good IMO.

Anyway, instead of listing some of my favorites (because I kinda like all of his movies) I thought I would just rank them:

The Addiction

A little difficult to exactly explain but I'll give it a go. A sustained feeling of fundamental wrongness throughout a film. A sense that at no point are things quite safe or normal or happy and that things will only get worse and worse. Unrelenting, suffocating doom. The main example I have of a film that does this, the film that prompted it in fact, is Noroi. But the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre does a similar sort of thing. And otherwise films sometimes approach it, like The Blair Wtch Pr... Continue »

Though he's a douche like Clooney for mixing his stardom with politics, there's no doubt he's one of the greatest actors of the past 30 years...thinking to myself I've come up with my favorite parts he's had, I've come up with this top 10 IMO.
Carlito's Way
At Close Range
Bad Boys
State of Grace
The Thin Red Line
U-Turn
The Falcon and the Snowman
Fast Times at Ridgemont High
Colors
The Game

Any thoughts?

Over the weekend, I wanted to show my girlfriend three of the nastiest, ickiest, groddiest and lowest-budgeted gore films the '80s had to offer. So I picked Killing Spree the first night, Splatter Farm the following night and lastly, The Abomination for the remaining night. Three awesome-as-fuck, homegrown, backyard gorefests with a combined budget that is probably lower than your monthly car payment. I didn't think of it at the time, but all three feature horrific, LOL-worthy acting by old lad... Continue »

Scream Factory announced a Blu-ray and DVD release for October 10th 2017

This dude is 90 years old, and he's still with it! Yes, that's David Lynch in there, so I pretty much have to see this now.

Neill Blomkamp, modern sci-fi filmmaker, has a youtube channel called "Oats Studios", which produces some epic 20 minute sci-fi videos, but they also have some goofy short videos about cooking shows gone wrong.

Check it out if you want some interesting shit:

Netflix snuck this one by me. The follow-up to Wet Hot American Summer: First Day of Camp is due August 4th. I love this shit. I'm gonna binge the hell out of it the day it comes out.

Post Saw. Three loser kids (2 guys and 1 gal) have a party in a cave or something similar. They invite a bunch of kids who were mean to them, and plot revenge. One of the revenge deals I think involved the star QB cutting off his hand, or his girlfriend dies.
Toward the end, one of the three thinks they've gone too far and tries to find help.

Thanks

The Vault of Horror
Alien Zone
Tales from the Crypt
Asylum
Dr. Terror's House of Horrors
Night Train to Terror
Encounter with the Unknown
Creepshow 2
Body Bags
The Offspring

What are some of your favorites?

Here I am, watching Kong: Skull Island, which is set in a 1973 post-Vietnam backdrop. I'm also rewatching the 1987-1990 Vietnam war series, "Tour of Duty". I think the Vietnam war leads to the more interesting of war movies. What are your fave War movies, and does the type of war matter (Civil War, WWI, WWII, Vietnam, etc) towards your enjoyment?

My faves:
Platoon (1986) - Best war movie, IMO. Got a fucking fantastic cast, and some fucked up moments in it.
Full Metal Jacket... Continue »

What are your favorite Documentarie(s)? I got inspired by Onyx's thread about documentaries to make this. I love documentaries! They can be depressing, disturbing or just plain sick - but they are never boring, that is for sure. I have seen in around a 100 in my lifetime this far. So here is what I rated 8 plus, in order:

Dear Zachary: A Letter to a Son About His Father
Hitman Hart: Wrestling with Shadows
Murder on a Sunday Morning
Beyond the Mat
Boy Interrupted
Rain in my Heart
My Amit... Continue »

If you even have one. A few days ago I watched Grindsploitation (2016), which isn't on DVD or Blu-ray for some reason even though it's a new movie and they don't make VCRs anymore. I had to set up my old VCR because I hadn't used it in years. Since I have it out, there are a few movies I only have on VHS that I want to rewatch now.

Ugh... what am I doing with my life?

Well, not really a connection, but, whatever. In F13 part 3, there is a scene where the biker gang.shows up at the house on Crystal Lake to get even with Shelley. First we see the white male biker guy... he comes out from behind the van, and then he makes a strange sort of barking sound, to summon his friends. It just hit me, that that's just about exactly the same sound that the lead zombie always makes, in Land of the Dead, to herd his co-zombies toward Fiddler's Green. It's not exactly a... Continue »
