Fart City posted:Has there ever been a release of A New Beginning that has all of the gore slashed by the censors restored? Sadly no. Which is a shame. I believe the materials might just be lost, or else we would've seen a release by now. gently caress the late 80s/early 90s MPAA.

There's no pretty much about it, that's the literal text of the film. Which is a much better way for him to come back to life than a loving lightning bolt. God I hate part 6.

CelticPredator posted:I still really like Cabin in the Woods. I hate that film. Wark Say posted:Greetings. Habitual lurker here. Decided to post since I feel like I'm running into a dead-end: If I have Amazon Prime and Netflix, are there any horror movies in either that I might be overlooking worth the while? On Netflix I'd recommend: The Ritual, Veronica, The Babadook, Cult of Chucky, Apostle, I Am The Pretty Thing That Lives In The House, The VVitch, Krampus, Train to Busan, Dawn of the Dead (2004), Scream, Coraline, Monster House, Scream 2 and Let Me In. I'm in Canada so some of these may not be available to you.

CelticPredator posted:I like meta movies. Any genre any kind. That scene's good and I appreciate the work of all the various special effects people who worked on each monster to give it a distinct look, but I don't think the entire rest of the movie is even mildly enjoyable so that sequence alone can't hold it up for me. The biggest problem with the movie is that it thinks it's clever and funny, and it's neither, and that's really grating.

M_Sinistrari posted:Compared to how Netflix has been, I'd say Shudder's still knocking it out of the park. While they're dipping into the original material/exclusives waters, they're still not sacrificing what has built them up so far. Netflix on the other hand's been cutting their movies catalog and going heavy on the original programming which might not appeal to everyone. Not to defend a corporate entity, but I don't think Netflix is cutting that stuff cuz they want to. All the rights holders want a piece of that streaming pie now that Netflix proved how profitable it can be.

CelticPredator posted:When I was a kid, I just wanted to find some proof of the paranormal because it would've been rad, so I watched those drat shows all the time. They ruled but also made me mad because they never found poo poo. There was an infuriatingly bad children's show up here that was basically ghost hunters but with kids, and it made me really mad with how blatantly dishonest they were. It took me all of two episodes to realize that not only did no one involved believe ghosts were real, but also that ghosts definitely did not exist.

Deadguy2322 posted:You’re missing a third, key component. Much like Romero, Carpenter's movies were all great but on the whole they were only moderately successful. You'd think being film-makers that influenced 30 years of cinema and counting would be enough to secure some financing, but nope. Meanwhile if you're the worst director in the world you can get unlimited financing and complete creative control of tentpole franchises.

Tuxedo Catfish posted:Carpenter's extremely good but he's not exactly "safe." Like, one of the man's best films is about a heroic domestic terrorist fighting against capitalism. Those are all fine rationalizations, but keep in mind Carpenter's movies cost less to make than half of a John Carter or Bloated 80s Remake or Failed YA Series First Book Adaptation or whatever. There's no such thing as a safe bet.

CelticPredator posted:It needed more of everything. More nazi monsters, more of Kurt Russell’s son, more insane poo poo like the screaming head. It teased me and just ended with that fight without the villain turning into some kind of insane creature or something. Anything. I like a film that takes its premise seriously and doesn't feel the need to escalate the third act into an Avengers-style mess of a big battle, personally. I mean Dead Snow 2 is fun but I'm glad Overlord isn't that, being slow and understated makes it work for me. If the bad guy had turned into a Resident Evil boss monster or there were thousands of nazi zombies jumping all over the place being mowed down by the hundreds, I would have completely checked out of the movie. Instead I cared about the small group of characters and their simple mission.

Drunkboxer posted:Cameron’s only true horror movies are Piranha 2 and The Terminator. I’ll give you Aliens I guess, but I think that’s more of an action movie. That's still 2 incredibly important movies that have greatly influenced the horror genre. Like Fran said about American directors, it's difficult because a lot of the greats aren't really horror directors primarily. Carpenter is a good example, he made a bunch of weird action and comedy stuff, a lot of people still think of him as the Big Trouble in Little China guy. And Sam Raimi made 3 entries in one of the most important horror series ever, then no horror movies for a really long time, then a mediocre horror movie that is largely forgotten, and yet a lot of people will still think of him as a horror guy and not "The Spider-man guy".

Presenting Basebf555's third place prize from the January Horror Essentials thread, a customized doodle of a horror character of his choosing... THE JUICY ZOMBIE!  Credits to my good friend and talented artist LandsharkRAWR for the artwork. For those of you who couldn't participate in the thread, you can still look through the list to see if any of the classics are something you've been meaning to watch! I think it's a pretty good list and the participants seemed to agree. Lurdiak fucked around with this message at 07:08 on Feb 7, 2019 |

For the record I could beat up every horror movie monster, even the ones that are elder gods, disturbances in the fabric of space time, or metaphors for damaged psyches. I can kick the Overlook's rear end and body slam the Babadook.

Honestly they should just put Chucky in a safe. Sure he always inexplicably comes back to life because of voodoo curses and being fixed and melted into slag used for other dolls or whatever other poo poo, but what's he gonna do in a safe.
