Karloff posted:Orca: The Killer Whale is such a great film. I rewatched it today and I think it's unfairly dismissed as just a "Jaws ripoff". Yeah, it's part of that cycle of natural horror that happened in the wake of Jaws, but it's doing something completely different. There is a fairly seamless blend between actual Orca footage and animatronics/miniatures, the performances are all excellent, the score by Morricone is incredible, the photography is beautiful, and it has a real romantic tragedy vibe. I kind of love it. I watched it a few years ago and really enjoyed it as a fun trip, it might be due a rewatch. The last scene still sticks with me.

Twin Cinema posted:Also, this film just throws Aunt Martha at you, and she exists in a completely different reality than the one of the film, and it just adds to the weird tone throughout. Yeah! Is the actress doing a bit or is she just the original Tommy Wiseau? That performance is just so loving bizarre and out there.

Was just addressed as "The Blood Man" over the phone (was buying some mail-order eyeblood from a theatrical supply store). I need to put that on a business card or something

Watched Honeydew last night and I'm pretty sure it's a bad, baffling movie but goddamn if it doesn't push some buttons in me. It's hard to recommend because it's over-stylized and feels short on subtext for the amount of bizarre stuff it throws your way but it did scare me, so that's something. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=75WP_F-9sV0

What other horror movies have the vibe of Slumber Party Massacre II? I adore that tone and vibe. Shame it was a weak slasher, but it was just fun, fun, fun.

Ben Wheatley is doing The Meg 2 next, for some reason. A Muppet movie can't be out of the question.

I haven't seen the Meg but isn't it like a weird remake of Jaws III?

STAC Goat posted:I don't know the story but somehow The Howling brand ended up in the hands of some rando dude named Clive Turner and he just made a string of really terrible DTV sequels that were barely even werewolf movies but he increasingly seemed to have more control and then he made the one you saw which like uses footage from all the others and just stars Clive in some weird rear end super vanity piece that just showed up at a bar and started shooting with randos he was hanging out with or something.

I read the first couple of Meg novels. They weren't great but were fun enough. The film could have used a higher rating though, the bit where it gets to the beach could have been a lot more rad.

Killer shark/sea creature movies need to be rated R. That's why Pirahna 3D/DD > Jaws.

# ? May 11, 2021 18:06 |
Hey, Jaws would be R if it was rated in 1990.

I think that was just her, I’m sure I saw that in a documentary. The actress who played Angela was on cameo I got her to do a message for a few friends, she really nailed it I highly recommend her if your after something special for a fellow horror fiend

The story from the cast is that Aunt Martha's actor, with no prompting from anybody, showed up on set dressed like that and did the scenes that way and everybody just went with it. I don't think she was really even given much "direction", and even the red string tied around her finger was her idea. And no, she's not Tommy Wiseau, whatever she was doing still qualifies as good acting. Aunt Martha absolutely kills it... it just leaves you with the question of exactly what the gently caress she was killing or why.

There's a lot of Japanese actiony horror but it usually borders on gore comedy. Versus, Wild Zero, Machine Girl, Tokyo Gore Police, X-Cross etc.

Blade 1/2 might be too obvious, though if you haven't checked out the live action TV series it might work for you. Brotherhood of the Wolf is rad. Dog Soldiers. Thinks I can't vouch for but some people like: Abraham Lincoln Vampire Hunter, Dracula Untold, Black Death.
