Thanks for the kind words!COOL CORN posted:Like really how can I get some horror art to frame and hang in my office, please I need to make prints or set up a shop for people to order them. I'm better at making the paintings than mass producing and selling them. I also don't know which ones people would be interested in prints of. I know people liked my Invisible Man. (If there are any other artists lurking that know a good way to sell prints, I'm open to suggestions.) Franchescanado fucked around with this message at 04:04 on Sep 29, 2019 |

Microwave Massacre on Prime is all about Frosty the Snowman murdering his wife and cooking her in a microwave oven (because they were brand new and everyone still appended "oven" onto microwave). It's among the most bizarre horror movies I've seen. My childhood is ruined.

I watched the Child's Play reboot (re-imagining?) tonight and it's pretty fuckin' solid. I was honestly surprised how much I liked it. It has a couple great kills and even made me laugh out loud a few times.

Everything should be on there, but you'll probably have to search for most of it. It's poo poo. Also with new titles that just hit Shudder, it might take a day or two to hit Shudder Prime.

I just watched the first episode of Creepshow and it's a mixed bag. The first segment, Gray Matter, was just mostly ok, with some cool bits but a lousy ending, some bad cgi, and some weak low-light digital cinematography. However, I really liked the dollhouse segment a lot, save for the ending again. Overall, I think they're hitting the right tone, this could just use some sprucing up in a few areas and it would really shine.

Pomp posted:practical effects creep rules though Yakuza Apocalypse is really fun horror comedy (basically, yakuza cliches spread like a zombie virus...and there are vampires). Gozu is definitely good, basically Miike channeling David Lynch. There's also Audition, but that's a fairly well-known one. It's intense torture-porn, so be warned. Kvlt! posted:ALSO: I've been diving into Asian horror a lot recently (I've been trying to watch Suicide Club but it hurts my eyes so bad). I've seen all the splatter stuff like Guinea Pig, Toky Gore Police, Machine Girl, Grotesque, etc. so i'm mainly looking for either less-known extreme stuff or some great ghost stories or just any really good Asian horror: i haven't seen any "classic" Asian horror movies besides the Vampire Doll trilogy, Audition, and The Grudge so feel free to toss me a suggestion that's more "popular" as well. No found footage please I get motion sick. Kairo (Pulse) is really good. Just avoid the American remake. Although it can't match Ito's original, the Tomie movie is kind of cool. I really liked the soundtrack. The sequels are pretty bad, mainly because of a really strained SFX budget. Three...Extremes is a good anthology, especially if you had the stomach for Audition. Gripweed posted:I haven't seen Escape From Tomorrow, but this review makes it sound like unwatchable garbage I'm bitter against Escape From Tomorrow because I had really high hopes for it and I found it pretty miserable. I've certainly seen worse movies, but I usually have a better idea ahead of time. I also hate that the cool concept was squandered on such a mediocre movie...the guerilla filmmaking idea was really neat, but you've got only one chance to do that in Disney...they know the Streisand Effect well enough not to do anything the first time, but if someone tries this again you can bet they'll smack it down. So, I just wish that once-in-a-lifetime concept went to someone with a better idea.

The first felt like a pastiche of better Stephen King stories, by King himself. Mostly a waste of Giancarlo and Tobin Bell.

I really enjoyed how the Dollhouse segment was spooky but ultimately harmless. No one real was killed or harmed. It reminded me of a scary story you’d tell a kid on Halloween

Because it's, you know, a vacation place. People film home movies there all the time. So it would be easy for someone to do the same thing again. The problem is that now it's been done, so another movie couldn't sell itself with the same gimmick.

Escape from Tomorrow had a really strong first half to me but once they're inside Epcot and on it kind of falls apart because they adhered too closely to "we have to fit every rumor about Disney World into one movie" instead of building the story out of just one or two of them. I was impressed they kept in the parts where the dad is clearly assuring a Disney staff person out of frame that he was just joking like after he puts the gun in his mouth and when he jokes about drowning in the pool.

Chucky is like 90% actual animatronic, there are only a couple scenes where he has to jump or move really fast or something where he is CGI. It only stuck out to me like twice for very brief shots.

It was just such a cool idea, that in the end mostly came down to them parroting super-common disney rumors.

Wow. The Fog is what I always wished ghost movies were like. That an Poltergeist both feel like they do ghosts in exactly the way I want—spooky, creepy, and utterly otherwordly. Like they're from another dimension or they twist reality. What else has a similar kind of haunting? And ideally not just located in one house.

I like Escape From Tomorrow, but you could tell the same story with some filed off serial numbers. It's more or less just a horror take on Vacation. What's odd is that the story of a man trying to desperately claim an imagined childhood is literally what the Disney parks are. They're a living monument to Walt Disney trying to reclaim the bright spots from his lovely childhood by brining to life the books he liked and the place he actually enjoyed as a kid. The film really could have cut deeper. SMP posted:The dollhouse segment ended right after it finally got an interesting development aaaaa. I feel like that could have sustained an entire hour.

Timeless Appeal posted:I like Escape From Tomorrow, but you could tell the same story with some filed off serial numbers. It's more or less just a horror take on Vacation. From the beginning, I expected something like the dollhouse to be representative of her real life, and that real world events would begin to mirror the nefarious poo poo in the dollhouse. Since she's powerless as a kid in the real world (a point which this could all just be a metaphor for anyway), her manipulation of the items in the house would be reflected in the real world too, like adding the cop or chief would introduce an authority figure in her own house. But in Twilight Zone fashion, after everything seems resolved, one last weird thing happens, camera zooms out, and yeah, they're actually inside a dollhouse themselves, manipulated by a maybe not so nice kid.. Instead, none of that happened, lol, but I still liked it anyway.

Like they're from another dimension or they twist reality. What else has a similar kind of haunting? And ideally not just located in one house. Well, if you like The Fog and Poltergeist I'd highly recommend The Changeling from, I think, 81. It's very spooky and in that vein, as well as being 80s horror, but good 80s horror. For an even older film, I'd recommend The Haunting from 1963, which is still hands down the fuckin' scariest film I've ever watched. I still have to turn the lights on after that, but now I've said that you probably won't be impressed. If you haven't seen Sinister, which was 2012 I think, watch that too. Very old-school imo and pretty good. Not perfect, but good. As for other ...ghosty dimension-y films, Entity is really good, and there's a Disney film called The Gate that was for kids but is actually kind of cool too, in its own way. You also can't go wrong with a film called, I think, uhh...The Apparition. That film isn't perfect, but its solid.
