So we all agree this is the best horror movie of the year so far right?

/tv/ is full of contrarian losers, because of that, /tv/ has decided it's shit. And just like with Babylon, we'll see /tv/ hailing it as a great movie in a few years.

>>213776173 (OP)
its the greatest horror movie since Exorcist and Black Christmas

>>213776173 (OP)
horror flicks are usually bad so that's not saying much, it's easily the best film in theaters this year so far

>>213776275
F1 comes pretty close. The Surfer was also really good, but no one saw that lol. Ever since I saw Weapons I've been trying to think what the best 2025 movie is so far. And what I've discovered is I've forgotten the majority of the movies I saw in theatres this year.

>>213776219
No retard, it's actually shit. I know you fags think tapwater thrillers are great and all, but its just normie indie sludge. I bet you think dog shit like Barbarian, Longlegs, and M3gan were timeless hits as well.

>>213776526
M3gan is a movie for tranny groomers, hence the sequel (never seen either btw).
Barbarian is great, you're just proving you're a basement-dwelling virgin contrarian.
Longlegs is better than Weapons, but Longlegs came out last year. You're just mad that you're a loser.

>>213776173 (OP)
It's an awful movie

>>213776173 (OP)
What did you like about it?

I really liked how much it did "show dont tell" with the witch spells. The lack of exposition in general was very cool. I agree with anon from another thread we could have had one or two more heat seeking spergs screaming across town after a target, but either way it was really good. Now I have to see Barbarian.

>>213776173 (OP)
>of the year
i would say maybe the decade, horror movies have been fucking shit for a long time

>>213776173 (OP)
It's goofy and not scary at all.

>druks and homewrecks in you're path

>>213776693
>putting Weapons over Talk To Me or The Substance
Bruv, Weapons is good, but Talk To Me is leagues ahead of Weapons as a horror movie.

Why are there no webms anywhere?

>>213776173 (OP)
What is the main monster in this film?

>>213776808
no digital release, I hope there'll be justine webms when it's out

>>213776815
A giant weapon

>>213776173 (OP)
there wasnt really a lot of horror besides Justine's part and the dream sequence. the second half of the movie fell flat

>>213776764
>passes out drunk in unlocked car right outside witch's house and still comes out unscathed
how did she do it

>>213776930
The witch needed her hair to make her a target, idiot. Watch the film.

>>213776275
>horror flicks are usually bad
Thats so wrong.

>>213777025
>this nigger thinks Strange Harvest, Clown in a Cornfield, and Heart Eyes weren't bad movies
Nigger, c'mon.

>>213776764
I can fix her

Wtf was his problem?

>>213776764
>>>213777070
Does she have that sexy hillbilly accent in this?

>>213776779
Talk To Me was okay, it could've been better if it wasn't about dealing with the death of a loved one, all horror movies are about the same thing

>>213776526
notice how people who claim this movie is bad can never give a single example of another movie that did it better? weapons is truly the best of its kind and that makes them jealous.

>>213777070
Not really

>>213777158
Dumb junkie I'm glad he died

>>213777049
We had Weapons, Together and Bring Her Back come out within the same 2 weeks. All of them are good.

>>213777345
His fight was genuinely comedic genius. In fact I feel like a regular comedy would have had him get up maybe 3 times and be done. He got up like 12 times and it just got funnier each time.
I think there's an argument to be made that the Weapons guy is shaping up to be the next Sam Raimi. There were even some shots that reminded me of Raimi's movies (when we're introduced to the junkie and the camera is panning between his hands really frantically especially gave me Raimi vibes)

>>213776657
I like how it felt like an adult episode of Goosebumps, the way it unfolded through the different character chapters, the themes of how if we let guilt drive us it can lead to worse outcomes. The way the villain is slowly revealed right up to when you finally the orange hair silhouette walk past the principles office windows.
Also maybe a bit niche but I find open front doors in suburbia incredibly unsettling when there's nothing but a void past the door and you're anticipating what will come through. I've never seen anything else from this director but it seems like he's good at towing the line between comedy and horror and the juxtaposition of the two creates more tension. I'll probs get called a faggot for writing all this out but it's just my opinion!

>>213776672
Agreed, I laughed in the theatre when she asked for a bowl of water and just said "i don't try to rationalize it anymore!" the dialogue was fun

>>213776779
Did you mean Bring Her Back? I thought Talk to Me was last year?
I still haven't seen either but I just wanted to make a thread about weapons and thought I'd make a controversial title lol

>>213776930
Well if the witch killed her then that will lead to more attention to the house which she didn't want

>>213777510
He said his Resident Evil film is gonna be heavily inspired by Evil Dead 2.

i dont even watch movies and i think its shit

>>213776444
>The Surfer was also really good, but no one saw that lol
I saw it pal, and I also loved it. Primo Cage-kino.

>>213776815
The audience.

>>213776173 (OP)
Kek imagine still watching movies in (current year)

>>213778043
>Follows a hapless courier tasked with delivering a package to a remote hospital. He soon finds himself caught in the middle of an outbreak and must fight through hordes of mutated creatures to survive.

Yeah about that resident evil part

>>213776764
Her hair is reminiscent of an old granny. It's easy to see in the scene where she's sleeping. I thought that was a nice tidbit since shes typically young for a elementary school teacher in movies

>>213776173 (OP)
It's literally "the witches" 2.0 also by fucking WB.

>>213776173 (OP)
I don't feel like there is a true thematic whole to the film, and any underlying meaning for a character often feels disconnected from the others. From a pure entertainment perspective, I found myself mostly engaged throughout, with some pacing lulls here or there that took the wind out of my sails a bit. I felt ahead of the movie too much, and was waiting for it to catch up to me. Even still, I think this was a fun summer film. I don't regret seeing it at all.

>>213780595
A witch can hide in plain sight because there is a WHORE and the people are too busy hating the WHORE who is always wrong.

>>213776219
Cregger has finger on the pulse of normie life. Not Chazelle

>>213776173 (OP)
Should I see it by myself? The one person Id see movies with is sick and never replies to texts.

Is it that good?

>>213780490
That's why I like it, The Witches was such a good movie

>>213780595
>>213780776
It's about Boomers refusing to do anything but take from the youth
>>213781177
Dubs confirm yes, go see it by yourself

>>213781177
make sure your friend isnt dead first
then go see it

>>213776173 (OP)
Its the only one I watched and it wasn't very good. I'd hope there are better ones than that but idk.

>>213781177
It's a fun movie, specially with a packed theater.

its a by the numbers normal horror movie until that fucking assault rifle appears in the sky, literally rolled my eyes out of my head and dont get me started on that ending

>>213776173 (OP)
> movie with female protagonist
DROPPED
wtf were you thinking?

>>213782924
the assault rifle was goofy yeah, not sure what they meant by that other than 'weapon lol'

>>213782950
he was looking for a smoking gun

>>213776219
eat shit faggot retard, the thing is trash
Barbarian was much better, Weapons is five levels below it

>>213781177
It's being overhyped massively, but I enjoyed it. It is a fun watch.

I saw a clip of Naruto running and laughed out loud
this is culturally devoid plebs desperate to praise slop
enjoy your slop

Definitely had its moments, Benedict Wong Naruto running into the gas station was probably the highlight for me. Agreed with the other anons, they definitely under-utilised the weapons.

For me the comedy felt very tryhard and more often than not detracted from the horror, particularly with that goofy ass comedy chase sequence at the end, though seem like I’m in the minority there as I’ve seen nobody else criticise it and my zoomer theatre were giggling like crazy through the whole thing. To me it just completely undermined all of the tension they’d built up.
