As for an underappreciated scene that I love, I truly feel that the best (and possibly only good) scene in the most recent Hellboy was the one where Hell opens up and some loving Book-of-Revelation-rear end demons crawl out and produce 30 seconds of a Beksinski painting loving a Bosch painting by way of Godzilla.

you're not wrong, drat this one scene makes the rest of the movie look good.

Someone replied this was on their Horror Kill Mount Rushmore. You gotta put NoES 4 roach motel, Psycho shower and then what's your #4?

For me it might be Resident Evil laser room

Nah, if you're going to have a slice-and-dice then it's Alderson's death in Cube. Much better build-up and not obvious CGI bollocks.

Given that a Mount Rushmore kill doesn't have to be gory as much as it needs to be truly iconic, I'd pretty much have to second Alf's list except replacing the Bone Tomahawk scene with Peter Cushing yanking down the curtains to destroy Lee's Dracula with the risen sun.

The Fury has a cool scene at the end where John Cassavetes explodes in a shower of gore, and it must have been really expensive because they repeat it from like 14 angles and the movie ends immediately afterward:

A weird followup from Carrie for De Palma, as it’s about a psychic teenager with world-destroying psychic powers played by Carrie’s bully Amy Irving, who either decides to return to her normal life or ends the world. It’s not really clear.

Unlisted because I'm sending it into film festivals and some of them require the project to not have been publicly available before it's screened.

Can't watch this until I get home but I wanted to make sure this didn't get lost at the tail end of the last page since it is very important to big up each other on this stuff 💪😤🤙

Does Kevin Nash have any acting chops, especially comedy chops, that he'd work as a film lead? I'm imagining you'd need someone more in the vein of a Brad Garrett for this role - naturally tall and seemingly imposing, but comes across as sweet and dopey and good-natured.

Like, I want to like this, and it seems like Zombie's going to be able to get all of the fine details right, but most of the casting choices that I see get floated don't make any sense on paper.

I think my ideal Munsters 2021 cast would be Winston Duke as Herman, Eva Green as Lily, Jibrail Nantambu as Eddie, Anya Taylor-Joy as Marilyn, and as suggested in this thread, Cassandra Peterson as GrandMA Munster

Not a very Rob Zombie cast though

Nash has incredible comedic timing for someone who made his name as a big handsome wrestler. The Detroiters episode as previously mentioned, but he’s also the best part of the Dead Or Alive movie.

Though now that you mention it, Garrett would be amazing as a modern Herman too.

who do you carry the torch for, my young man?
I haven't seen Part 3 yet, but something Fear St Part 1 and 2 do well that I think makes them pretty unique despite being clear derivative/homage based horror films is you never really root for the killer.

Many slasher films reach that point where the dead teenagers are just completely interchangeable and you're watching then get picked off one by one. Fear St does a good job of really always making us experience things from the victims perspective (even though there are some literal killer POV shots, this seems intended to emphasize the vulnerability of the victims.)

Likeable characters die in some outright horrible ways. This attitude is therefore BOTH more empathetic get also more cruel, and doesn't treat these ideas as oxymorons.

I think there's actually some really well-considered horror filmmaking going on in these even though they're absolutely intended as mass market teen entertainment.

Thats part of the point/plot; the 3rd explains it. There's a reason that the sympathetic characters die.

I've thought extensively about this and I think I would be the perfect Herman

I'm 6 foot 6 so I've got the Herman height. I'm a big fan of Rob Zombie so I'm familiar with his filmmaking and music, and we'd be bffs on the set, plus I grew up watching the Munsters so I'm wicked familiar with the source material.I am only 140lbs and 23 year old but they could just fill me out with padding and age me with makeup. I have never acted in my life but that's an advantage as my performance would be unique and catapult Rob and I straight to the oscars.

Hey man, the guy who played the iconic Grandpa from TCM was only like 20ish when he played that part. Chase those dreams.
