ok lets all shit our pants to something new: post 2005 horror film thread

one other issue I had with The First Omen:

having Damien's introduction to the world an intentional introduction by the Catholic church really retroactively blunts the tale for me. Now it's a Jurassic Park-esque "we thought we could control it" versus "oh fuck an unexpected evil has shown up and we're not ready to fight him". considering how much destruction he causes across three movies, I'm struggling to understand how they thought they could control him, especially since they seemed to make little outward effort to do so.

like in the original Omen, Father Brennan did see the birth of Damien and tried to warn Thorn about his son, and he had the mark of the beast on him himself, and was supposed to be a reformed ex-Satanist who reformed after the incident regarding Damien's birth, so it felt like in the first movie, it was the work of then-Satanists, some of whom may have secretly infiltrated the church. whereas now it's actual nuns and Priests who feel like they're doing God's work.

Has this one come up yet? I read a pretty good review.. a horror movie set 45,000 years ago

Clever concept, at least.

they all live in the same sorority cave, and the call is coming from inside the cave

Abigail was a lot of fun. it's purely horror-comedy and there really are no scares to be found, nor is it really trying hard to do so, but the conceit is creative and the lols are refreshingly more of the slapsticky variety than the cringe humor you usually see in horror comedies these days. also the actress playing Abigail really gives it her all.

my only complaint is that I was hoping it was a movie about the King Diamond album

i really hate radio silence movies and the trailer doesn’t make me think i’ll be changing my mind with this one

What is a radio silence movie, you mean the characters are told that they will have 24 hours with no cell phones or whatever?

going to see In a Violent Nature later

xpost it's the name of the production company

could you use google for once in your god forsaken life

Jeez, are you talking to me? You wanted me to google "radio silence?" I could have sworn in the trailer the guy says "no cell phones," so sorry for making that assumption.

it’s the third result
