Sex

>>213657462
I always thought it was funny how in the third movie, the girl who gets killed at the start has the tattoos "Milk" and "Shake" on her tits, but she's barely an A-Cup.

They're trying to steal my time

Anons, I have this audio clip on an old hard drive. I'm certain it's from an exploitation films, but searching the words in exact quotes yields no results. The file is called "Misty FU." I'm sure I knew what it was from when I downloaded it and named it that and it's driving me crazy. 1000 internets if anyone recognizes this

This Halloween I'm going to play catch-up on modern horror movies I haven't seen.
Of this list, are there any you'd recommend above the rest?

Its over for Friday the 13th fans.

>>213658068
good list, watch Hereditary first then Midsomar right after
add The Dark Song and Speak No Evil

>>213657572
Its still there though and the Jason movie today was like that.

>>213658068
Get Out actually is good. I think Us is a lot worse personally.

>>213658122
Christmas themed movie belong in December.

>>213649534
Part 4 or a remake?

>>213655838
Part 13.

That's just two unrelated movies.

>>213658194
Gremlins 2

>>213658314
Watch Ghoulies instead.

Fred Stoller is gonna watch Maniac (1980) on my recommendation, i've done my good deed of the week.

>>213657704
I swear the director and writer is a white male cuck. This is like some a24 slop.

Anyone else think Barbarian turned to shit as soon as they revealed the monster? It was quite interesting before

>>213657044 (OP)
Roy did nothing wrong

>>213658068
The Lighthouse is kino

>>213658681
Yes. It was lazy, "what if there was a freak in the basement... but it was le gender flipped!"
Castle Freak did it better.

wtf was his problem?

>>213658712
I don't know, the Michael Jackson cousin singing in the outhouse was only guilty of being related to Reggie. I think Roy went too far there.

What was with the mask in 28 years later? When I had watched the trailer it definitely felt like there was going to be a cult involved who wore them but it ultimately just ended up being nothing, it was so lame. Also I know its been said to death already but the ending with jimmy was goofy as fuck like what the hell was that... and personally I think it sucks how they handled the lone Nato soldier. It would have been a lot more interesting to keep someone from the outside world around imo

It was a hammy comic book style film that isn't worth thinking about, a bunch of ideas scrawled down on a napkin.

>>213658887
I will now watch your movies

80lb pound 35 year old girl armed with a knife thinks she can 1v1 Jason.

The films of Ari Aster

>>213658991
>a bunch of ideas scrawled down on a napkin.
Yeah I'll agree on that. I liked the first half though but after or sometime during Spikes party everything seems to go downhill.

>>213659012

>>213659246
> better than garbage like The Conjuring but not great.
Better than the movie that started the most successful horror franchise that took over 2 decades that still had a major release coming out in a few months, the Conjuring 4?

I will now watch a film

>>213659478
Yeah, turns out something being popular doesn't mean it's high quality.

Yep, turns out cope is cope.

>>213658887
>Bring Her Back
But it was good

>>213659585
Would you say The Conjuring is better than The Thing, Near Dark, In The Mouth of Madness, Ginger Snaps, Evil Dead, Suspiria and The Shining combined?

>>213659660

Why

>>213659679

>>213659981
Yea we smol loveseat now

>>213659660
will boyle include child rape in the sequel?

>>213659092
Yeah Danny Boyle is no doubt a genius director as well, for me it's one of those films where I loved half of what it's made up of and hated the other half.

>>213660323
Love seat for you and Megan <3

>>213660474
Are you shipping me with Megan

>>213658681
Yup. Felt the same about Weapons

>>213658632
NTA but I like most of what I have seen from this list so will be checking out what I haven't. THink I will start with The Wolf of Snow Hollow

>>213659887
>as the forest couch breaths it's final sigh, signs of scavengers are not far away. this carcass of this will soon support an entire ecosystem, including providing sustenance to the local bigfoot population.

Started watching something then realized it's also a sequel to another film that I thought was standalone so have to watch that firstobos

Consider: Danny Boyle has never ended any of his films well

Thread Question:
What are some horror kinos you could enjoy even if you lost the ability to feel fear?

>>213661075
Horror is my favorite genre and I haven't found one scary since I was 10

>>213661075
just look at the stars and contemplate how insignificant we are. the universe is infinite and random and the entirety of everything will stretch our infinitely in the great expansion. everything we know will be nothing. a dark universe with nothing but space between the largest black holes.

>>213661075
Im with >>213661126 I don't find horror scary and my faves are not scary to me at all I just like the genre a lot.

>>213660973
>She was so fucking perfect in this movie

>>213661075
>even if you lost the ability to feel fear
I haven't felt anything in years

>>213661006
the Puppet Master universe is quite big too.

>>213661167
Sorry that still isn't scary
Neither is false vacuum quantum tunnel to true vacuum

>>213661075
Kolobos.

>>213661303
Just don't much care for Kolobos................

Just got back from this. It was pretty decent. I liked the segmented structure and thought the performances were good. My biggest issue was the runtime. They could've cut 10 minutes from it and it would've been a better experience.

>>213660877
They "Days Later" films have all been Danny Boyle's direction hampered by Alex Garland's shitty writing.

>>213661191

It's funny, the chrome update wiped all my filters and now I'm slowly reinstating them as the terms I remember pissing me off come up. And it's all the same shit.

Look at the size of this faggot

>>213661075
Only fools appreciate horror for the spooky factor.
True connoisseurs value all the craftsmanship from the cinematography, framing, the use of colors, set and production design, make up, visual effects and the atmosphere the filmmakers are striving to create. Or even a sharp, well-executed script, sometimes playful, sometimes poetic. In fact, I can say my favorite horror films are often the ones that are, in truth, the most comfy.
Horror is an aesthetic genre.

>>213661347
Most movies should be 70 minutes long based on their premises and what actually happens in them. You should be able to go to a movie theater and buy a double feature with a ten minute intermission in between for a discount over a single movie, and you just go to the lobby and buy overpriced snacks or use the bathroom in between, and your double feature ticket tells you which room each of the movies will be in. Half of the rooms should be for 70 minute movies and they are all within one or two minutes of that runtime-wise, so you can buy any double feature you want if the movies are running one after the other. Say they run two at a time. You can find the movie you most want to watch on their website, look at the two movies running before it and the two movies running after it, and pick one of them for your double feature with that movie. Of course some of the options may be repeats since they like to run the same movie multiple times per day, so if you like two movies that have full schedule runtimes, you can pick which one you want to see first in your double feature. One or two usually slow days a week they alternate newer movies and older movies related to them, on the same theme as them, originals and remakes, or so on so that you can get a double feature that will always contain one newer movie and one older movie. Another day should just be random assortments of 90s-to-10s action movies.
But of course the licensing fee stuff is too restrictive and not agile enough for that so Hollywood shoots itself in the foot yet again and the best double feature is the one you make yourself at home.

>>213661399
Yeah wouldn't want to actually think, better take some opium of the masses to turn into yet another dreadful copout. Muh Nietzsche says I can stay up as late as I want and be a big fag because nothing le matters o algo

On the contrary, my friend. I hate how movie critics approach cinema. I hate the Cahiers du Cinéma, Cineastes, Variety, Empire, and all that crowd of humanities-educated fart sniffers, people who can’t analyze a film without talking about subtext, political context, or the filmmaker’s sexual orientation.
I’m a formalist. I analyze what I see and how it’s presented to me.

>>213662130
I'm sure the actual reason you hate them is because they rejected one of your essays, because you sound exactly like them you fart inhaling bugchaser

Horror died in the 80s and didnt come back until the 2010s when we got ghost kinos like Sinister and Conjuring.

>>213662405
>conjuring
>kino

This guy isn't baghuulpilled

>>213662426
Yes. So kino it took over the 2010s and 2020s to shut the haters up.

>>213662426
It is. Its many spinoffs suck but that doesnt make the first two main ones bad.

>>213662599
The only really BAD movies in the franchise are Annabelle 1, La Llorona, and Conjuring 3.

>>213661280
For your information

God of Gamblers II (1990) is not the true sequel to God of Gamblers (1989). It is actually a sequel to All for the Winner (1990), which is a parody of the original God of Gamblers (1989).

Although Chow Yun-fat appears as the titular character, the God of Gamblers, he is not the protagonist; that role is played by Stephen Chow, who is the main character here, called the Saint of Gamblers.

They later released God of Gamblers III: Back to Shanghai (1991), which is a sequel to God of Gamblers II (1990), again starring Stephen Chow.

The real sequel to God of Gamblers (1989) is God of Gamblers Returns (1994), also released as God of Gamblers 2 (1994) — not to be confused with God of Gamblers II (1990). This one stars Chow Yun-fat as the original God of Gamblers.

Finally, God of Gamblers 3: The Early Stage (1997) is the official third film in the series, but in fact it’s a prequel to the original God of Gamblers (1989) with none of the original actors. Again, do not confuse this with God of Gamblers III: Back to Shanghai (1991).

>>213662651
Ching chao bing bao.

>>213662651
>>213662651
tldr:
there is 2 movies called God of Gamblers 2
and 2 movies called God of Gamblers 3

There is also The Top Bet (1991) which is a spin off kinda to All for the Winner (1990) - the God of gamblers movie parody.
And Saint of Gamblers (1995) which the true sequel of All for the Winner (1990).

>>213662599
They're all terrible. Conjuring fans are the same kind of people who try to pass off christian rock as real music.

>>213662964
aso related to the Gamblers maxi series:

My Wife Is a Gambling Maestro (2008) directed by the same guy who directed the original God of Gamblers.
And One More Chance (2023) also know as Don't Call Me the "God of Gamblers" this one with Chow Yun-fat again reprising the role of God of Gamblers!

>>213663072

What a coincidence

Oh, I almost forgot The Conman, known as 'Knight of Gamblers 1999' in China. Despite the title, was released in 1998.
In this movie, Andy Lau reprises his role as Knife, one of the supporting characters from the original God of Gamblers film.
It was followed by a sequel, The Conmen in Vegas (1999), both directed by Wong Jing, the same man behind the original God of Gamblers movie.

>>213664353
It was a better film when it wasn't going full retard sharknado plotpoints. I don't know how they reign it in from there but hopefully it can stay about where it is.

>>213664591
sharks look like they would be really satisfying to punch but they got that sandpaper skin? would need gloves or something.

Watching it contemporaneously, I think it sucks.
I do think, though, that in the future, it will be widely praised. I'm still thinking whether or not that future praise will be justified.

People have absolutely zero sense of media and art literacy these days. They are unable to comprehend and appreciate anything that is not superficial and surface level. Honestly- a large portion of the public’s reaction to Nosferatu has made me very alarmed and stunned by how narrow minded and shallow our society has become.

>>213664804
I feel like I'm losing touch anyway because everything is on tiktok, but that is like a black box for searching. A chunk of it just the algorithm and army of paid shills at work. The stories about young people from teachers these days though... like they're basically zombies unless told what to do and think. Though they're probably not watching Nosferatu since it's too long.

>>213664768
>I think time will shine cruelly on it's crude excess.
That's the thing. That excess is emblematic of our time. The future will see this movie as a definitive film of the 2020s, even if we in the 2020s think it's stupid right now

>>213659887

>Talk to Me
Am I alone in finding this movie mediocre? It got completely meandering after the party where they're all using the hand. The obvious drug metaphor fell apart by the end.

>>213665864
No it was quite mediocre. It lacked scares and the ending was muddled.
I don't think they ripped Insidious off, but it shares a lot of plot points with Insidious (boy in a coma, otherside wants to take his soul and possess him, ghost people invading real life). And that's a better film even with the Tiny Tim music trying to ruin the ending.

>>213665777
If only we could all be so lucky

>>213665864
I feel the same way. I remember being disappointed it wasn’t all contained into one night with people getting fucked up by the demon/ghost hand at that party.

Interesting ratings. Apparently this ended up going to theaters in the US so isn't out on VOD yet.

>>213657319
She had a full 3 minute sex scene that was cut out by the MPAA. A worse omission than any of the gore that got taken out of these movies. Knowing what we lost makes that 10 seconds of heaven all the more precious.

It's like they came up with the neat concept of the hand and linking it to substance abuse or unhealthy ways to cope with trauma, but then they couldn't figure out where to take that concept. It just fell into generic possession story.
Bring Her Back felt like a big improvement on that front as it was much more focused and coherent.

Also check out Mad God and The Wolf House if you like animation. Claymation works so well with horror.

I find this movie to be extremely underrated tbqhwy. Absolutely love the creative use of camera angles in it that sets it apart from other slashers

I can remember my grandfather renting Sleepaway Camp III on VHS from a man who operated a video stall on a market. I spotted the tape on his cabinet and asked him for a quick rundown, and he replied: ''She runs over someone's head with a lawnmower''. I couldn't wait to watch it after that.

>>213669241
Nice

Kino fact

>>213664692
No, this is garbage. The film has already received the highest praise possible. And now it will be forgotten.

>>213657315
Aside from the shitty mask he just looks all wrong. He's not a big brute. Kinda tall I guess but he looks like a skinnyfat teenager cosplaying as Jason. The shaggy hair sticking out looks like shit too. If they just fixed that stuff, I could probably get over how bad the mask is. For a cider commercial I guess the short film was fine, kinda just felt like a mediocre high budget fan film though.

>>213670064
Isn't that about Jason as a teenager?

>>213668144
I thought they already cancelled it a while back?

>He's not a big brute
People always forget but he was very small in Part 2 as well. In fact everyone forgets how wildly inconsistent everything about Jason has been in this franchise since the very beginning and only remember certain parts from certain movies. The ONLY consistent thing in the entire continuity is the axe mark on the mask from Part III that they kept even for Part VIII and Jason Goes to Hell even though the original mask had already been destroyed by Tina in Part VII.
>Jason does not run just like Myers!
>Except when he does run in Parts 2-IV
>Jason is a tall hulking badass!
>Except he's not when he's first introduced in Part 2 where he also keels over after getting kicked in the nuts once

jannies are deleting waifus again...

>>213671626
Ehhh, he still came off way more imposing in part 2 with the sack over his head, and his long hair and deranged hillbilly look. My favorite Jasons are part 3 and 4 though so I'm partial to big hulking retard Jason, not whatever this new cider commercial Jason is supposed to be. Not saying he needs to be enormous but the actor needs to be more physically intimidating.

>>213671705
Even acclaimed and beloved Canadian actress Sarah Gadon and her protégé Amanda Fix?

picked out the stuff i'll be watching for october, most of it's backlog stuff UwU

>>213667925
How does he see out of that?

>>213671875
Some good stuff there anon. The Psycho sequels are way better than most people would probably expect.

>>213671875
>Borderline
Jack's son does a great job and his female cohort is the best in the movie IMO.
>The Eye 3
I didn't like 2 or 3. Even the original Eye is just above average IMO.
>Jenny Pen
More of a psychological thriller and damn is it depressing.
>May
I could have saved her/10
>Psycho III
That light scene is very homoerotic and gross. Why does it have to be in there?

>>213672354
>More of a psychological thriller
You know psychological horror is an actual thing right?

>>213671875
im sorry anon but there isnt a single good movie on that list

>>213672509
Of course, didn't say it wasn't, just more of. Like a horror-comedy can be more of a comedy than horror.

>>213672535
You have seen at best 1/5 of them

>>213672585
Sure I don't necessarily disagree with that either but there has always been a lot of overlap between psychological horror and psychological thriller. They may as well be the same genre if I'm being totally honest.

>>213672760
>They may as well be the same genre if I'm being totally honest.
It's funny because I've actually seen some people who put psychological thrillers specifically as a horror subgenre already. I see it more and more these past few years

Does anyone here have a Spiral Staircase?

>>213674355
Nope. Mogged.

>>213674355
Just a plain staircase...

Nah we're all nu yawkahs.

Anybody watching Alien Earth? I saw the first episode and so far it isn't really doing it for me. Going to watch episode 2 later.

I'm going to keep watching it, not like there's anything else these days. But that first episode was kinda shit. Visual effects being the only good thing so far.

Post hidden kinos please. Pic related is amazing,

This movie could have easily been better but at least we finally got to see real acting chops from Ella. She actually carried the movie and stopped it from being a complete and utter disaster. At least now I'm excited for her next film with better writing and directing.

>>213674355
>Spiral Staircase
Some consider the movie to be in a sense the 1st slasher

>>213679499
It was way too slow. I turned it off.

do you participate in any of the other /tv/ generals?

>>213679796
Pay attention. Watch it again when you're refreshed and fully present

>>213679867
Im not gay.

>>213679867
I hardly participate on /tv/ at all except for just this one general. The rest of the time I hang out in /smg/ over on biz

>>213679342
Was expecting this to be more horror, but it's fine.
>Russian scout does nothing
>Dies

>>213679867
Not on /tv/. I'm only a part of 1 general on /g/, and maybe 1 on /r9k/ but for only about 6 weeks out of the year.

>>213679941
/tv/ overall is too reddit and lefty.

/kdg/ x /hor/

what's the deal with the tiara? Isn't that kinda gay?

>>213670253
Yeah it got shut down after filming started, but apparently that's been sorted out and they're gonna start again. So still a while to wait but signs are at least positive.

Upgraded my copy of TCM remake, here's the comparison:

Old release:
>15.9 GB video size
>23.1 Mb/s video
>0.465 bpp video
>5.1 lossless audio

New release:
>21.2 GB video size
>30.9 Mb/s video / max of 33 Mb/s
>0.622 bpp video
>7.1 lossless audio

If it wasn't under the tremendous weight of needing to be a Hellraiser film, I agree people would rate this one higher.
This film has a surprisingly artful tone to it.

Ain't that the truth

>>213661443
It’s downright near impossible to make a universally appealing horror film for those reasons. Hardcore horror buffs are unbelievably picky and care more about how scary something is and how many (according to them) “actual” horror scenes there are rather than how well acted, written and structured a movie is or anything to do with the cinematography, the effects, the set pieces, the locations, even the subtler stuff like atmosphere etc. falls lower on the totem pole for them.

The Exorcist has long been dubbed "the scariest movie ever made" and when people today watch it and find out that's not really true (anymore) they underrate the hell out of it even though it's objectively a well made film otherwise.

But are they wrong for thinking like this when that’s the general purpose of horror: to (try to) make people feel a certain way? It’s hard to say honestly. Compare to thrillers that only promises suspense which is so much easier to do right even when the audience instinctively knows the good guys will never lose.

I actually find that action fans are the ones with incredibly low standards because most of the highest rated action films, which includes superhero shit, on user review aggregator sites have so many cuts and largely unimpressive action scenes, especially if there’s any fist/sword fighting involved, that are both poorly directed and choreographed. Nolan’s movies are the perfect example and not just his Batman stuff either.

>TL;DR: action fans have ludicrously low standards because they don’t actually have a sense for the technique behind it all. They just see big explosions, car chases and fist fights and are easily impressed by it all, while horror fans have ridiculously high standards and often don’t know what the fuck they actually want so they’re never satisfied. They also like to complain about how “desensitized” they are, but will never outright admit that the problem then often lies with them as much as it does with the filmmakers.

>>213680671
>action fans have ludicrously low standards
I like action movies and that's partially true.
>They just see big explosions, car chases and fist fights and are easily impressed
Doesn't apply to me. Sometimes I want something simple and enjoyable, much like most slasher films are. If I want something with more substance and overall better, it's hard to beat Asian action movies. I've seen low budget Jap action movies that put Hollywood to shame in terms of choreography.

>>213680671
If I really introspect I think you're right, in that while I know what kind of films I'd make if I had millions, I have a hard time reconciling my thoughts with what I actually like. I think horror is just quite diverse.
For example - The Blair Witch Project has no special effects, no grand cinematography, basically lacks all of the film elements I normally want and relies heavily on great acting which I normally say I don't care much about. But it's one of my favourite horrors.
On one hand I could say I have low standards because a lot of films I like are just a bunch of retards and SFX guys competently pumping blood and slime onto local strippers. But at the same time the surrounding plot, lighting, acting etc. that supports it is actually has to be good, have sovl, but doesn't have to be professional. It can be rough.

>>213679867
the big brother generals existence on this board confounds me. what the hell goes on in there, that show is for gossiping normie women

>>213679867
I like /hor/ but the /film/ clique is more fun nowadays. Also one general is genre-exclusive and the other isn't, plus there's no singular resident schizo regularly fucking /film/ up beyond all recognition.

>>213679867
/film/ is my home.

>>213677865
Its good. Curious to see where the story heads but I like the visuals and the lead.

>>213657315
Not bad for essentially an ad but it does feel very fan film-esque. Theatrical movie would need a more competent filmmaker and better Jason.

>>213679867
No

>>213681815
I agree. The guy doesn't know how to frame/shoot Jason because the stunt guy is big apparently but doesn't look like it on film in most shots

Blair Witch is actually a pretty good example of how hard it is to please horror fans. It was and still remains one of the biggest indie hits of all time and someone like Roger Ebert gave it one of his rare full 4 stars because he thought it worked really well as a horror movie, but a loooooot of horrorheads actually think it's super boring because "nothing happens" (which is not really true at all of course) and will rate it low because it wasn't stimulating enough for them and it's not a movie that otherwise works as anything but horror, just not the traditional kind that some people have come to expect from slashers and creature features.

Those people are probably the reason why the shitty sequel decided it would be a good idea to actually show the witch and turning it into a generic monster chaser flick instead with needless exposition. TBWP is just one of those movies that only a small percentage of people into horror can actually fully appreciate for what it manages to accomplish with so little. I know this sounds pretentious but it is what it is.

>>213679867
Not really, maybe the occasional show one

>>213681986
it's not for everybody but it's definitely a classic, and in my eye a masterpiece of "less is more"
