exquisite tea posted:I recently saw The Witch for the first time and I thought it was great, probably the most unique and well-made horror movie I've seen this decade (although I don't normally watch a lot of horror). There are a lot of themes at work here but what I mostly got from it is that devotion to family and God blows and being a witch is fukken awesome. Yeah not really, both sides are pretty horrible. The father is an incompetent moron who unnecessarily endangers the family for the sake of his pride, but the witches are baby eating pedophiles so it's not like they're any good either. Thomasin starts the film being controlled by a man who intentionally puts her in a bad situation (her dumbass dad), and ends the movie being controlled by a different man who intentionally puts her in a bad situation (Satan, the dude who murdered her family). She will never be free, in fact freedom was never even an option for her, she was always destined to be subservient to a man (her father her husband, Satan, it was bound to be someone) because she's a woman and life for woman back then kind of sucked.

Nothing wrong with nudity. But I'd prefer not to watch exploitative nudity, personally. Unless I specifically sit down to watch an exploitation film. Have a scene where two characters have sex? Throw that poo poo up on screen, my friend! Have a gal get her bikini ripped off so the audience can leer at her? Makes me feel skeezy. But yeah, throw a bunch of dongs up on screen to balance it out, for sure.

Yeah, nowadways my takeaway is how women are treated as subservient by society, and also "No matter what religion you pick, religion will gently caress you up."

True but doing naked witch poo poo for Satan is way cooler than being boring, joyless puritan.

Given the options back in 17th Century New England, dancing tits out and turning baby blood into ointment for the Dark Lord himself freaking owns compared to activities such as cooking and cleaning, hitting that hoop thing with a stick, or dying in childbirth as most women did during that time.

Zombie's Halloween II verdict: much preferred to the original Halloween II, but holy hell what a depressing movie. I actually teared up when the sheriff finds Annie's body. I also watched the original ending on youtube and I prefer this alternate version, it fits better.

Pomp posted:Dying in childbirth next to the much older man who you were sold off to and legally raped by, to trigger the libs But she DOES end the movie married to a much older man: Satan, and part of the witch mythos involves them giving birth to demons, so either way she's getting screwed by some creepy old guy: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PwdE-mqXgNc weekly font posted:Hell yeah. I have a Black Phillip tat lined up in my future. I haven't had a chance to watch them together yet, but I think it'd be a really good double feature with Midsommar. It's weird that you should mention that, because I was just thinking the other day about how similar those movies are and how great it would be to watch them as a double header.

I hired a woman for our IT department a few weeks ago and I just found out literally 10 minutes ago she has a Black Phillip tattoo. I think I made the right choice.

Get a Black Phillip tattoo and you’re a cool kid in the In Crowd. Get a tramp stamp of Ana Taylor-Joy’s face and suddenly you’re a weirdo on a watch list. Tired of these double standards.

Kvlt! posted:thats wicked dope i love it! I have a surprising lack of horror tattoo’s to be fair, I have a small They Live tattoo as well as a Xenomorph,I have “do the zombie shuffle like an old school ghoul” tattooed over my knees (lyrics from a song by zombie thrash band “send more paramedics”) and I have a 35mm film strip wrapping around my left arm that comes out of a Frankenstein style split wound in my shoulder and goes into one on my forearm (this has caused concern for people at work as they think it’s a sign of self harm which apparently isn’t a good look for a prison officer)

Holy poo poo House 3 is loving amazing. It’s on tubi as The Horror Show and is pretty much just Lance Henriksen fighting Wes Craven’s Shocker, except he’s played by the Australian bad guy from Tango & Cash instead of Skinner from the X-Files.

I have a Twin Peaks tattoo (the most obvious one), my plan is to hit the rest of that arm with further Lynch stuff. The key from Mulholland Drive and Bill Pullman’s tattoo in Lost Highway at the least.

Just saw Halloween III and if you don't like that, I just can't relate to your taste in horror. That's the goods right there. Also, good news: apparently Tom Atkins is still alive! Bad news: apparently this day he's relegated to stuff like this. But hey, it's rad those guys got him and at least he's still out there working on genre stuff. e: Especially you, Ebert feedmyleg fucked around with this message at 03:06 on Nov 1, 2019 |
