For me, it was The Monkey. Finally got a chance to catch it.

Personally I really enjoyed it. Had a lot of comedy elements that some whom dont enjoy the mix likely wouldn't like but it really worked for me. Likely one of my favourite Perkins films so far.

You guys? Doesn't have to be a new movie just the last you've watched.

I went to the theatre to see Longlegs. Was pretty disappointed.

Not a terrible film but overhyped I feel.

Just got around to watching Get Out a couple days ago. It was good, although the end left a few things still up in the air.

Drag Me To Hell. It was ok. Good if you don't care that much. I enjoyed cracking jokes to my partner: "I think she might die!"

The goat is incredible though, right?

My Bloody Valentine. Small Canadian slasher that was all but banned on release. My local indie theatre (the Rio!) Played it, with the director rocking a QA after.

For a 70s slasher, it's got surprisingly good gore effects and whatnot. And some of the moat exaggerated Canadian accents I've heard. Solid B movie fun!

It's great! It sits along the shelf of genuinely super Canadian horror movies with The Gate, The Changeling, and Videodrome...

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I am shamed to say I've only seen Videodrome.

But based on this, I've added the other 2 to my watch list!

The tRump presidency.

Would NOT recommend.

The Evil Dead trilogy. Well, the first three movies, since the second one isn't technically a sequel.

I do a Halloween rewatch every year.

And yes, I can heartily recommend it. They're classics for a reason

Smile 2. Yes I would recommend, it’s better than Smile 1. Has elements of Suspiria (the remake) and The Thing (1982) but is also its own thing entirely.

Fully agree with you on Smile 2 vs the OG. I'm super curious to see where things go for the next one!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 3 days ago

Yes totally! They could keep on making Smile movies with different characters especially because of the ways it’s transmitted. Each film a different scenario.

the episode "playtest" of the third black mirror season.

godlike.

20 minutes of joy, 20 minutes of horror and 20 minutes of psycho terror

I’m not really into horror movies but the last one I saw was the Babadook. It was fun except for the ending.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 4 days ago

Hostile Dimensions. A cool idea that's obviously inspired by The Dark Tower series, but the acting was so fucking bad that i can't really recommend it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

Companion & The Substance (really good). Have my eye on a few Flying lotus films for next, especially Ash 2025 when it comes out.

I think Late Night With The Devil, though it did feel more like a thriller. Loved it.
