Real excited for studios to bash any fun or originality out of the burgeoning Unfriended Cinematic Universe (UCU). Can't wait for Unfriended 6 where the movie takes place entirely in an open Amazon Kindle video assistant screen.

That’s the thing about films like Hereditary and The Witch, at surface level they come across as a bit silly but if you let yourself engage they’re loving terrifying.

Ok so hear me out. Unfriended 3. It's some teens talking on Skype or whatever and one of them is like, "Hey I just got a link to a weird video", and sends it to all of them. The video? Thering.mov Best crossover. The movie then follows them through their seven days but only shown through Skype chats, video calls on their phones, and CCTV cameras.

Has there been a found footage horror movie done entirely through police bodycam? I feel like there's potential there. End of Watch does not count.

In that case your problem is that nothing you do will be as viscerally terrifying as the best known police bodycam videos.

MacheteZombie posted:It would be neat to see you try to match some of the cinematography from it. Bit different than the neon stuff you normally do, which is awesome. The problem with this is I don’t have any lights besides red, blue and purple. So hopefully I can get some more for a Christmas present from the folks. Once I have a larger lighting palette I can really play with it.

No horror movie has made use of Tinder/Grindr’s location services. Wanna see some similar to the scene in Aliens with the motion sensor, “they’re right on top of us!”

Here's a recommendation post! Animal attack horror is one of my favorite subgenres because there’s a lot of room for fun in the standard formula. These movies can work with a fairly wide range of characters and environments, too. The man vs. nature themes often extend into environmental issues or scientific screw-ups, and since the basic situations are ridiculous to start with, they can get a little silly without necessarily going full horror-comedy. The classics tend to become crossover hits, so nobody needs me to tell them to go watch The Birds or Lake Placid or Deep Blue Sea. But here are a few other animal attack movies that are probably worth your time: Razorback (1984) The director, Russell Mulcahy, is best known for Highlander and Highlander II, but his background in music videos shows right from the start, when he makes a dusty rural farm attack look artsy. The main story is about an investigative reporter who runs into trouble, and that leads her fiancee to a confrontation with both a giant boar and some dodgy local meat-packers. It’s got some harsh moments and a great overall atmosphere. Slugs (1988) If you only try one thing on this list, make it Slugs. It’s from the director of Pieces, so it has a similar mix of gore and dark comedy. The mutant slugs are only really dangerous in large numbers, which means that a chunk of the carnage comes from human stupidity. That seems to annoy some viewers, but to me the poor decisions and wild overreactions are all part of the fun. Slugs has melting teenagers, a memorable business dinner, and a city official that refuses to shut down the Bait (2012) Once you get past its “sharks in a grocery store” premise, Bait is really enjoyable. It’s predictable but also satisfying, like the Stupid Shark Movie equivalent of a straightforward slasher flick. It’s also more technically competent than you’d expect for this kind of thing; it’s got an interesting look that kept me engaged even during the slower scenes. My favorite part involves the improvised bite-proof suit that lets the heroine’s pointless new boyfriend take one for the team. White Dog (1982) Animal attack films often focus on neglect, abuse, or unintended consequences, but what if that violence wasn’t an unwanted trait? This Samuel Fuller movie gives us a typical killer-pet setup that takes a dramatic turn once we learn that the dog was specifically trained to attack black people. Then the whole tone changes while the leads struggle with whether it’s possible to retrain the dog. It’s got some great parts, including a Burl Ives rant about R2D2, but it also has a scene that was among the most difficult things I’ve ever watched in a movie. (Some reviews of the movie seem to consider the racial violence angle as a spoiler, but personally I'm not comfortable sending folks in blind to something this emotionally charged.) The Ennio Morricone score is memorable, too. Roar (1981) In terms of story, character, and pacing, Roar is terrible, but watching it is a unique experience once you learn that plenty of the blood on the screen is real. Noel Marshall and Tippi Hedren raised big cats in their real-life home so they could have enough lions to make this movie. They also used tigers and other cats that aren’t native to Africa, the film’s setting. It took 11 years to make and 70 people were reportedly injured in the process, including Marshal’s sons and Hedren’s daughter, Melanie Griffith, who needed 50 stitches after being clawed in the face. The story involves a lot of hiding in cupboards and barrels, but by the end the characters play happily with the lions that menaced them. This whole thing is somehow meant to be a message about conservation. Rats: Night of Terror (1984) Rats is an Italian trash film that lands in so-bad-it’s-great territory. It’s about a post-apocalyptic biker gang that stumbles over an empty research outpost created by more technologically advanced survivors, and the place is infested with rats that start picking them off. One of the bikers takes advantage of the uncertainty to pursue his own goals, but most of them are endearingly supportive of one another and are shaken when their friends start getting rat-murdered. The shocking twist ending is dumb as hell and also perfect. Others Worth Mentioning: Orca (1977) is a Jaws imitator that features long, emotional shots of the title character’s tears. Piranha (1978) and most of its various sequels and remakes are a good time (with the exception of 3DD). Piranha II: The Spawning (1982) is a beautiful cheese-fest that's James Cameron's directorial debut. The Swarm (1978) is a killer bee movie that played nonstop on TCM in the 90s, but looking up the release year surprised me because it has the feel of a movie ten years older. I like Python (2000) too, and I promise that’s not just based on my unreasonable love of Casper Van Dien. If you want to watch Leslie Nielsen play a shithead (and have a tolerance for a few too many nature documentary shots), try Day of the Animals (1977), from the same director as that Jaws-as-a-bear flick, Grizzly (1976). And if you liked Stephen King’s rabid-dog-meets-soap-opera, Cujo (1983), that director’s first killer-animal flick was Alligator (1980). I don't tend to think of supernatural animals as belonging in this category, but Zombeavers (2014) is still a solid “stupid movie and beer night” pick (yes, really). If you'd prefer to mix your decent-when-drunk movie with a heaping dose of nostalgia, Shakma (1990) is a violent but poorly paced story about LARPers getting attacked by a drugged-up monkey. Shark Night (2011) is not a movie that makes any sense at all, but it was worth it for the experience of dragging a bunch of friends to the theater to see it for my birthday and then having this ridiculous rap video come up after the credits. And while SyFy Original Movies are mostly hot garbage, Dinocroc (2004) was memorable for not pulling its punches. Between The Meg, The Shallows, and 47 Meters Down, we've seen a resurgence in big-screen shark movies in the last couple of years. Hopefully other critters won't be far behind.

I feel like once you've seen Roar, you're spoiled for animal attack movies after that. Nothing is ever going to stack up to the pure hell insanity of that production, or at least that was my experience. How can you go back to CG animals, or even ones done with practical effects, after watching those real-rear end untamed lions go buckwild on Melanie Griffith and her family?
