Antebellum looks promising but I can't really get a sense of what it's gonna be like from the trailers

Invisible Man and Halloween Kills are my two anticipated horror films for this year. Invisible Man looks intense.

Along with those I wanna see Gretel and Hansel, Antlers, underwater (out now), antebellum, candyman. There's also organ donor (chris rock's saw movie), escape room 2, bhoot part 1, purge 5.

Netflix bought the rights to The Platform at TIFF, shouldn't be too long now. And that Taiwanese horror game from a few years ago, Detention, got a movie last year that's out on bluray now, but I don't think it's been licensed here yet.

Oh yea, forgot about Candyman. Very very interested to see how that one turns out. Chris Rock's Saw, not so much.

I don't think I've gone as quickly from excitement for a sequel to complete disappointment as I did between finishing Escape Room, finding out there was a sequel, and then reading that it's a direct continuation from the first one. It *could* work, and they tease what they wanna do, but I would really have a lot more fun with a whole new cast of characters Escaping a Room, like how Final Destination handled most of it's sequels.

Every Halloween sequel should just be called Halloween. All Michael cares about is that it's Halloween so that should be the title.

Antebellum looks like a time-traveling Confederate South that kidnaps people, based on the preview. It feels like an jaded corporate reaction to Jordan Peele. Some boardroom asked themselves "What would be scary if we were black?" and landed on the Bermuda Southangle.

Oh. Jeez ok that sounds even dumber, I thought the disappearing plane was some time and space weirdness.

Yeah, I kind of feel the same way. The elaborate personalized escape rooms from the first movie and how they specifically tied into the fears and experiences of each person playing were great and I'd love to see more of those. However, I'm willing to give Escape Room 2 a chance and I'm hoping the direction they've decide to go in ends up being a good one.

chiming in on the Rosemary's Baby love. it has that real "dream logic anxiety attack" thing going on the whole time. i also love the aesthetic of the satanist coven in it; they're so prosaic, just perfectly reasonable and friendly old people who have mad a pact with the dark lord. the only other movie to really nail that vibe for me has been Hereditary. rock on, satan's grandmas, rock on

alf_pogs posted:chiming in on the Rosemary's Baby love. it has that real "dream logic anxiety attack" thing going on the whole time. But they're not reasonable and friendly, they're warped parodies of those things. Stephen King did a great analysis of Rosemary's Baby in Danse Macabre. If you haven't read that book I highly recommend it, even if it is nearly 40 years out of date now. I've been holding out hopes that King would write a second volume some day.

Has there been official confirmation that Tony Todd isn’t playing Candyman again? From what I can tell he was, he wasn’t, but now he is. The Wikipedia page currently lists him in the role.

Basebf555 posted:It definitely is a good movie to rewatch for that reason. But I do think it's scarier when you don't know that, because you're kinda in Rosemary's shoes as she has to deal with that confusion and realization that her husband just isn't listening and isn't going to help her. As if it were a Body Snatchers movie and he'd been replaced by a pod person.
