I wanted something a bit more overtly pretentious and aristocratic than that. Not necessarily chewing scenery....but ok yea maybe some scenery chewing would've been nice. Which performance

Since we were talking about Suspiria earlier, I finally had a chance to watch it. I thought it was a really good remake. One of the issues with remaking a movie like Suspiria is that it's very hard to improve upon it. I liked that this remake did what very few remakes are able to do which is make a different product from the same material. It felt like it found the sweet spot of taking enough that it was not worth just calling it something else without feeling beholden to the original. I also really dug all of Swintons performances. Especially as the dance teacher. I know someone said they wished she chewed scenery more but I absolutely disagree. We are knee deep in domineering and melodramatic instructor characters. Especially for the arts. It's very rare to see the role portrayed as someone warm and compassionate. I think it also made the sinister threat of her all the more creepy Edit: I thought one of the smartest choices was to replace the original films reliance on color with texture. To try and mimic the artistry of what Argento did was doomed to failure. By replacing the visual dynamism with a tangible sense of physical texture was really genius Mel Mudkiper fucked around with this message at 23:23 on Feb 20, 2019 |

The world of interpretive dance is inherently arch, you don't need to put ribbons on it, we get it. I just loved that it was basically a companion piece to Altman's "The Company".

Thinking on it, maybe it was supposed to create a sense of unease and surrealism by having something unnatural about him that you couldn't quite put your finger on. Like, I originally hated Dakota Johnson's performance until the end when I realized how she was acting was the point

Concerning Eli Roth's History of Horror, outside of the zombie episode I honestly don't remember much Chris Hardwicke being involved. The other episodes feature cool people like Stephen King and I honestly think Eli wasn't that bad. Obviously if you're knowledgeable on the subject this isn't gonna give you much you didn't know but it really wasn't that bad overall.

Maybe they just hard Hardick on for that one episode because he's hosted that show about The Walking Dead for years. I guess that's acceptable. edit: lol typo funny so I will leave it 2nd edit: I watched Overlord yesterday and liked it more than I was expecting to. There were some legit moments of pretty hosed up body horror in there, which I always appreciate. Basebf555 fucked around with this message at 15:07 on Feb 21, 2019 |

Who is available this Saturday to help me pick out a VCR from the thrift store to watch this stupid video? I have no idea how to tell if a VCR works and also no idea how to hook it up to my PC which does seem to have some sort of video card thingie.

Couldn't you just like bring a tape and ask them to let you plug in and make sure it works? I don't think there's a lot of "VCR" experts out there who could provide you much more insight than that.

I got my last VCR for like 5 bucks. It worked pretty well until it just suddenly didn't. I've been hunting for another one without any luck. My dad's old toploader VCR from the early 80s is sitting in my storage. I occasionally use it as a prop because it's really nice and chunky and mechanical. I really need to get around to having it fixed because I'm pretty sure the only broken part is the cord. FreudianSlippers fucked around with this message at 02:35 on Feb 22, 2019 |

We had like over a half dozen VCR/DVD combo decks at my work, and my boss ended up tossing them all out along with a bunch of other old audio and video editing equipment. I was super bummed because I even told him I'd buy them loving things, and then they just threw them away when I wasn't around.

Me neither, but I doubt there really exists someone who could tell you the VCR is working without hooking it up. Like, unless you just don't know enough to tell if its not smashed in or really a tape deck. Like as long as plugs in and powers up your biggest issue is probably if it eats tapes. And only one way of I know of to find that out.

Hellraiser reboot chat a couple of days ago made me take a crack at my own Pinhead redesign. I wanted to do something really drastically different, but keeping in tone with the psychosexual aspects of the original. I started by pushing past the androgyny into something distinctly feminine. I ditched the black leather for muscle tissue to better keep consistent with the Frank/Julia resurrection effects. I also decided that the cenobites should literally look like they have been taken apart and put back together over-and-over again, so Pinhead is just a few hunks of skin nailed to a skeleton. Lastly, I reduced the amount of pins overall, made them bigger, and threaded them with barbed wire to make a "halo" of sorts.

This is rad as hell and I'm sad I'm not in the timeline where Screaming Mad George makes this a reality. I really like the eyes and jaw/teeth being visible behind the face with the face making it look like a sort of leering grin, it fits with "Pinhead's" enthusiasm in the novella too.

It was just my fifteen minute warmup so I didn’t get super detailed. But I also wanted to keep an uncomfortable sexuality in the design, and I thought the visual of undulating lungs as “breasts” would be a cool visual
