Farscape is actually pretty cool.
Just watched Scanners for the first time. Kind of hated it! Nearly every line delivered by the protaganist is eye rollingly bad. Couldn't wait for it to end. Neat effects during the ending though.

Scanners has the best head explosion with an honorable mention to the original Maniac shotgun scene

Pull me out

When we watched Maniac on the Scream Stream, there was some debate as to whether the fidelity of the effect in Scanners beats the fact that in Maniac there is another actor within splatter range to get covered in brain blood

That scene does indeed own. Unfortunately, the remaining 80 minutes were just a slog for me to get through

Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers (theatrical cut) also has a pretty righteous head explosion.

Maniac's scene owns because Tom Savini didn't have a permit to film it so he just blew up a fake head with a shotgun in the middle of NYC in the middle of the night and threw the gun in the trunk and sped off before the cops came lmao

Hey y'all YouTube!!! it's ya boy Anime Tupac here to deliver a HOT-rear end review of "We Summon the Darkness!" ok check it:
(I had no strong feelings about it one way or the other, I like anything with an 80s vibe but it didn't stand out much at all)
((and then I just like limp out of the room with the camera still on so it's clear I'm incredibly low-energy))

I don't know anything about this but as a Savini fan I hope it's accurate because he owns

I think he threw it in a car driven by another member of the crew to further distance himself from the gun. Could be misremembering. I believe he tells the story in the Savini doc on Shudder?

I have somehow never in my life seen Poltergeist and am watching it for the first time, and just 7 minutes in it's so goofy, and Craig T. Nelson was there, and you were there, and you were there! *points to random horror thread posters*

I never really watched any franchise. I'm through part 4 of the Nightmare on Elm Street and honestly they keep getting better and better. Well maybe not 4 is better than 3 but I still liked 4.

Patricia Arquette was great in 3 and I'm really disappointed she got recast.

After watching Never Sleep Again, I got the distinct impression that Renny Harlin gave the role (and a one shot record deal) to the first person willing to bang him for it.

I saw William Lustig a few times/spoke with him a bit when he was screening the recovered/restored Maniac print at theaters in NYC and that's how he told it. On the night they did it one of the crew's sole task that night was to be their "getaway driver" for this purpose, so that as soon as they got the shot it could be placed in the trunk and that other crewmember immediately drove to NJ for the night so they could be as distanced as possible.

also Bly Manor is very good so far. Very BBC Christmas Ghost Story, very MR James.

Finished it a few minutes ago. My hot take is I love it more than I loved Hill House?

It being way more sad and way more gay than Hill House almost certainly has a lot to do with that, but still

At the very least it should be easily agreeable that Bly Manor is the better Turn of the Screw-esque piece of horror media this year. gently caress The Turning

it is kind of amazing that a film once practiced sfx so far outside of its region's boundaries that it required a getaway driver and I loving love it

WE GOT THE SHOT, MAYBE!
