moths posted:Late Phases was a solid werewolf movie. It holds a bleak tone in what's otherwise a light fun genre. While there aren't a lot of scares, there is a lot of atmosphere and intensity. I really need to revisit this one. I saw it during a film festival where I was watching at least two movies a day for over a week and was exhausted by the time I got to it. It's got all the pieces I'm looking for in a horror but I found it really slow and plodding. I really did like the idea of a monster preying on a seniors community though.

I'm excited about all of these words."Bloody Disgusting posted:The Witch and The Lighthouse director Robert Eggers has assembled one hell of a cast for his next movie, a viking revenge film titled The Northman. Known cast includes Nicole Kidman, Alexander Skarsgård, Anya Taylor-Joy, Bill Skarsgård and Willem Dafoe, and it seems to have leaked this week that musician Björk is also part of the ensemble.

CommunityEdition posted:Three days. Three days it’s taken me to read this thread from beginning to now so that I could ask this question: You are now obligated to post your Friday the 13th rankings. Jedit posted:I'm going to advance a theory here: the people who came to see Rob Zombie's Halloween came for the license, not for him, and they didn't like what they saw so they didn't come back. ZH2 took barely more than $5m more than the original H2 did 28 years earlier, and that's in unadjusted numbers - over that period ticket prices almost tripled. I'm not going to comment on his skills as a director as they're not relevant, but it's pretty clear that he's making the movies he wants to see and those movies aren't what anyone else wants to see. I agree with this!

I think that the werewolf sub-genre is a little starved because the wolfman is one of the few spookies that doesn't follow the law of conservation of mass. Which gets a hard "no" from most people when trying to suspend disbelief.

I think the pace in Late Phases seemed off because they burnt a lot of time figuring out what's happening - after the audience already knows it's a werewolf movie. There are other mystery elements that pay off, but "is there a werewolf in this werewolf movie?" is the weakest.

I legit thought Zombieween was its own film and not Rob Zombie's Halloween and I was wondering how I missed something called Zombieween, let alone two of them

Going back to the Rob Zombie films for a second, I've been watching horror since the 80s and watched House and Rejects and remember thinking House was just whatever and just hated the gently caress out of Rejects because it felt overly sadistic. I feel a rewatch coming on.

BisonDollah posted:I haven't seen 4 of those movies but I'd say Wolfen, Silver Bullet, Wolf, Wolfcop and The Wolfman (2010) in that order. Wolf Guy isn’t a typical werewolf movie. Instead it’s “what if Wolverine was Kolchak?” It’s pretty good.

Now I just need to push the supernatural romance, body horror, and "torture porn" tables together. In fact, just push all of the tables together.

I find Table 5 to be a good buffer between 2 and 8 who most certainly would be fighting one another. Just a feeling.

Alhazred posted:Wolf Children isn't a horror movie. It's really good though. Does it have werewolves? I hastily threw that list together using a bunch of other recommended werewolf lists and "hidden gem" articles/comment sections. As I have done for every genre so I know theres some real silly additions in those lists. I'm just surprised no one has mentioned the Sonic movie on that screenshot...
