Baron von Eevl posted:I agree with OG ED being my favorite in GE franchise for every reason FS said. I'm also going to add, there are some really inventions and fun camera angles in there, even beyond the heavy abuse of Dutch angles during the freak out scene. There's a good shot of Ash turning around shot from below the floor (they just out the camera on the floor and had someone hold a shoe over threw frame a little bit) and one in the basement from above the ceiling (they just put a mirror on the ceiling and shot that). Also the mirror rippling effect looks really really nice. Those shots were exactly the sort of all the clever little touches I love about the film. Especially the Shoe Shot.

1990, hard call between Tremors, the Guardian and Tales from the Darkside. Tremors is just an all around fun monster flick. Guardian's an often overlooked modern folk horror entry and Tales from the Darkside because of the gargoyle story and Deborah Harry.

People give the horror movies of the 1990s in general poo poo, but 1990 itself was a surprisingly strong year. I'd have to probably give it to Tremors overall, but I'd also understand nods towards Arachnophobia, Bride of Re-Animator, Child's Play 2, Gremlins 2, Exorcist III, Jacob's Ladder and Misery. And we also have some prime schlock like Predator 2, Maniac Cop 2, Troll 2 and Frankenhooker, plus a few almost-great entries that fall just short, like Nightbreed or Tales from the Darkside. Oh, and Brad Dourif's bit part in Graveyard Shift. 1990: A good year for horror

For me it's between Tremors, Maniac Cop 2, and Gremlins 2. I think Maniac Cop gets my vote.

In case 1991 hits and I'm not able to post: 1991, I'm going with Highway to Hell primary and Cast a Deadly Spell as a secondary. Highway to Hell's an often overlooked gem of the escape from Hell subgenre, and Cast a Deadly Spell's a very good entry in the magic is really real subgenre. I'd rate it as better than the other known ones in the subgenre like Harry Potter.

As tight as the script is for Tremors, and as fun as it is to watch, I've gotta give 1990 to Jacob's Ladder. Battle Heater was my 1989 pick.

I could watch Tremors like 10 times in a row and never get tired of it. Jacob's Ladder I can watch enjoy it and then never watch it again. All about what do I want to put on my TV that is chill and funny.

Skinamarink is extremely good and highly suggest people catch it if you can at a festival or once shudder gets it into theaters/streaming. Parroting some reviews i’ve read cus i agree with the sentiment but it captures the feel of nightmares i used to have as a kid that made the whole thing extremely visceral for me. it’s gonna stick with me for a while. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXSUy7oExu8

Tremors is just such a well made movie. Like it's a fun and silly movie, but it's really well shot, tense, and does such a great job with setting up a clear geography.

So just to be clear the title IS based on that song they used to play on Nick Jr. all the time? Like I get taking things from childhood and making them sinister is a reliable source but man you've got work to do.

my best guess is that since the movie focuses on two kids who are implied to be around 4-5 years old they just decided to go with that? There is a very dreamlike/nightmare vibe through out the whole movie and maybe since skinamarink is basically gibberish that ties into it somehow. but seriously though absolutely fantastic imo, one of the most unsettling movies i’ve seen in years.

It's been a bit divisive in here among the ppl that have seen it, but I liked it. Neat style that kept me glued in

Maxwell Lord posted:Okay good. (Weird name then.) The children's show took it from an early 20th-century stage musical which had then taken it from, as I'll paraphrase from Wikipedia, "something someone's daughter heard at camp once". I guess there were probably other people at that 1900's Canadian children's camp. Maybe one of them is somehow (comically) tangentially involved, like a descendent or they're just vampires. I'm gonna guess the movie is referencing the kids song. They might try to deny that down the line, but they're gonna be lying to cover up the fact that they took the title from god drat Lambchop.
