Inland Empire is beyond genre, but without a doubt the scariest movie I've seen in the last five years.

jordan i think home movie is (certainly was) only available on ifc/comcast video on demand if u have it
lol @ inland empire. slocki iirc ud rep for the final destination series right? i think theyre good entertainment a+ death sequences imo
[rec]/quarantine are aight but not as great as the premise promises. havent seen the orphanage which is supposed to be a pretty good spanish horror film

the signal is a good one but it's so weird that i don't recommend it to many people
― access flap (omar little), Thursday, 22 October 2009 20:27 (fourteen years ago) link
i never saw diary of the dead b/c of bad reviews, but apparently i like camcorder/found footage zombie movies, so maybe i should give it a shot?
― Ømår Littel (Jordan), Thursday, 22 October 2009 20:28 (fourteen years ago) link
btw if you see one of rec/quarantine, you really really dont need to see the other one, startlingly slavish remake for the most part, a few degrees south of that goddamn psycho redo
xpost i thought the signal was great great great, but yeah, really odd
― Don Quishote (jjjusten), Thursday, 22 October 2009 20:31 (fourteen years ago) link
app i like the word really
Diary of the Dead kind of sucked unfortunately, imho.

also The Signal is pretty rad.
― Simon H., Thursday, 22 October 2009 20:39 (fourteen years ago) link
lol doesnt the signal have the same premise as the s.king novel cell??

"The Orphanage" is surprisingly moving, even sentimental. "rec" isn't bad, but it's essentially "Resident Evil" in Spanish.

It's good. But more of a ghost story/mystery than an outright horror film.

you mean the game, not the movie, right?
― Ømår Littel (Jordan), Thursday, 22 October 2009 20:43 (fourteen years ago) link
how awesome does embodiment of evil look? I can't believe I've had this sitting unwatched on a shelf for 4 months.

Pontypool is a decent low-budget zombie movie (as in, you only see a few zombies).
― smashing aspirant (milo z), Thursday, 22 October 2009 20:54 (fourteen years ago) link
and this is the part of the thread where I rep for 30 days of night
I watched it a second time and enjoyed it a lot more than the first time

now let's talk about the mist again
― 鬼の手 (Edward III), Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:11 (fourteen years ago) link
30 days of night got off to such a great start, and i was so excited about it, and then it just stopped being scary and turned cartoonish
― how rad bandit (gbx), Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:12 (fourteen years ago) link
The Mist - Good movie, shite ending.
― smashing aspirant (milo z), Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:12 (fourteen years ago) link
really wanted it to be a creep-o slow burner, but noooooooo
i had forgotten about the ending of the mist, in my mind it stops with the fucking giant skeleton elephant thing
― Ømår Littel (Jordan), Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:13 (fourteen years ago) link
the mist was great
xpost oh man i thought the ending was perfect
xxpost yeah 30 days of night fell off for me as well
― Don Quishote (jjjusten), Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:13 (fourteen years ago) link
the mist didnt suck but it surely tried my patience pretty much any time some1 made a speech in the cereal aisle

do u h8 cereal?
― Ømår Littel (Jordan), Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:14 (fourteen years ago) link
i fucking loved the mist
― Mr. Que, Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:14 (fourteen years ago) link
The movie and the short story deserved something better than a LOL GOTCHA ending.
Cut to black after they count bullets and look at each other.
― smashing aspirant (milo z), Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:15 (fourteen years ago) link
see, i liked that the short story and the movie had different endings!
― Mr. Que, Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:16 (fourteen years ago) link
i wanted the one chick to be like I SOLD ALL THE BULLETS TO BUY U THAT NINTENDO DS U SD U WANTED LOL

There's some superior fan made "Mist" ending on youtube. Or at least there was. Maybe this is it?

Love the option of watching the movie in black and white on DVD. Makes the gore less gratuitous.
― Josh in Chicago, Thursday, 22 October 2009 21:24 (fourteen years ago) link
nah, THIS is how the movie should have ended

the original ending of The Mist is perfect, complete w/ great Thomas Jane overacting.
― Simon H., Friday, 23 October 2009 02:35 (fourteen years ago) link
The Orphanage was pretty good, kinda similar to The Haunting in Connecticut in that it sort of sheds its horror movie skin by the end

Just watched Trick R Treat. That was pretty fun.

Has anybody see Voice? I just read a pretty enthusiastic write up about it and it seems promising.
I've got The Thaw and End of the Line coming next from Netflix. Probably add House of the Devil, too.

The Descent is great until the monsters show up
otm
also otm
has anyone seen the woods (lucky mckee)? i liked may, but that's all i've seen by him.

omg Teeth was amazing.
― billstevejim, Saturday, 24 October 2009 05:15 (fourteen years ago) link
It didn't scare me, but The Devil's Rejects was certainly the best horror-ish film of this time span. Inland Empire is beyond genre, but without a doubt the scariest movie I've seen in the last five years.

what about the sequence in the diner in Mulholland Drive where the guy is recounting his dream? I think that's the scariest thing I've experienced as an adult.
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 24 October 2009 09:07 (fourteen years ago) link
I like how Lynch's "eye of the duck" moments are either strangely beautiful or HOLY FUCK I THINK I MAY HAVE CRAPPED MY PANTS.
― Matt Armstrong, Saturday, 24 October 2009 09:08 (fourteen years ago) link
The Mist is pretty full on! The Marcia Gay Harden stuff was kind of overdone though.
I think someone said they hated the ending upthread. I thought it was brutal! Far more nihilistic and fucked up than them all just dying.
― His skin is eroding. His suckers have divots. (chap), Monday, 26 October 2009 01:15 (fourteen years ago) link
If he'd shot them and then stepped out into the unknown Mist to face Fate, maybe nihilistic and fucked up. Still would have preferred the ambiguity of counting the rounds and fading out.
Shooting them, stepping out into the Mist and then the Army rolling through is just a cheesy GOTCHA, should have listened to the other folks!
― smashing aspirant (milo z), Monday, 26 October 2009 01:25 (fourteen years ago) link
Basically, I think any horror movie with that kind of turnabout ending is taking the easy route - providing pat answers and a neat finale to the audience.
