The ULTIMATE horror movie discussion thread part 2: Revenge of TUHMDT

[ragingcrayon]

Watched some terrible horror movies this weekend, most noteworthy

The open house. My god it's so bad. Fell asleep twice, still finished it just because but skip it.
Als killing grounds didn't hear a word they were saying. Also not that intresting.

Open House was HORRIBLE.

Trash.

[JUGGERNAUT1333]

I deleted it and reinstalled it. Exodus works fine now for me. I think it's kodi 17.6 and exodus is 1.3 or somthing

Thanks man, I'll try this tonight.

[butteredtoast]

I had Open House queued up and then I started hearing nothing but bad things about it. Sounds like I dodged a bullet.

Watched Tragedy Girls last night. Really fun movie that actually had originality. Worth a watch for sure.

[CyberReaper]

With the big amount of Horror fans here I wonder how many are familiar with Phantasm. Of all the major Horror series that one is by far my favorite and it's a shame it's never had the level of recognition as others, but it seems to be getting somewhat more popular lately. Love that series (well, maybe except the fifth one, what a disappointment). 2 is the best one IMO.

[JUSA]

Nothing good on Netflix so I have been hitting up some alternative sites that are pretty good.
Might watch April Fools Day

If we’re talking the 80s AFD, loved it up until the twist.

Nothing on Netflix? I have ‘Tales of Halloween’ and ‘Most likely to die’ cued, anyone seen either/both?

Hey what platform did you watch it on? I noticed it's not on my go-to for watching stuff (Netflix or buying on Amazon). How'd you do it? I don't need to reinstall Kodi do I... meh

I love 1 & 2 and agree 2 is the best of the series. 3 and 4 are ok. I fell asleep for part 5 and wasn't interested in finishing it. None of it will ever make sense so I just love the spheres.

Tales of Halloween was decent. 6/10 I'd say. Haven't seen Most Likely to Die... Let us know..

Kodi + Firestick = WORTH IT.


Anyone manage to see plankface yet? I'm still dying to see it.

I remember Most Likely to Die being garbage, and I normally like those kind of movies. It's been over a year since I watched it though.

Tragedy Girls you'll have to watch on Kodi for now, but it's on VOD in a week

I actually was able to find it online.

Interesting movie, they handled horror/comedy very well, if it's not you can end up with a really ****ty movie. I think the fact that the actors involved took the movie seriously on face level helped sell it. Great actors, tons of bigger names in smaller bit parts and the two leads had a lot of charisma and chemistry together. The black chick was great looking too.

However, I felt like the pacing was off, the third act was too long and the ending was ultimately very unsatisfying.

Overall probably worth it but I don't think it lived up to it's potential and it's always a bummer when a movie runs out of steam or leaves a sour taste in your mouth.

I kinda wish we'd get a sixth one just to end the series on a better note. 5 was such a disappointing finale.

Also I sent you a message the other day relating to this, not sure if you got it or not.

Angus Scrimm (the Tall Man) is dead tho. So it won't happen.

I opened your PM drunk and forgot to respond. But I agree with your list. But post that sht in here, I am not your bf.

Blast from the past I bought The Thing to with Kurt Russell on blue ray and watched it last night. One of my favorite old school horror flix, they don't make em like that anymore. Looked really good on blue ray, I was impressed.

Yeah, I wouldn't want him recasted or to be recreated digitally, but at the same time the way 5 ends the series is way too open. I think a sixth movie without him can still be done, risky as it'd be.

I think so too. Their situation was complete hell.

Any of you miscers a fan of The VVitch (2015)? Truly one of the better flicks I've seen in a while.

part of what made this movie so great was you just had no idea who it could be. would have loved to catch this on the big screen on release

They had a showing during halloween of 2010 at my local cinema, was damned epic seeing it on the big screen.

Watched 47 meters down this past weekend. Should it be classed as a horror? probably not. But if you like sharks and fancy something that you don't need to pay too much attention to, this films for you. Fairly fun watch and decent ending.

Just finished watching this. Very misleading trailer, and the movie was straight dogchit. Not horror 2/10

This was my issue with it.

Spoiler!

The trailer made it seem like a very direct sequel to the initial Cloverfield. Half the damn trailer was footage from the first movie. I thought it was still a decent movie regardless.

The Cloverfield Paradox

[EoR]

I watched the new Hellraiser: "Hellraiser: Judgement" Overall, the production quality and acting was a lot better than quite a few previous installments. They decided to amp up the gore a bit too, one method they used was quite twisted. As far as the story line went, well I suspected the ending nearly instantly. Nothing special, the ending did have something different to the others with an addition of characters - in fact I am not 100% sure of the ending.

Spoiler!

So this angel wanted to keep the main character in reality because without evil there is no good, so he was doing work for both sides and would still stand judgement when he naturally dies. Pinhead killing the angel thinking the torment and threat of eternal Hell was no consequence to him--since he enjoyed the pain--but didn't realize they could banish from AWAY from hell to reality. So being a real human, not feeling the extreme pain was actually pinheads torture - hence his long scream.

That's what I gathered from it anyway, any other input towards the ending would be great. Either way, it wasn't the worst Hellraiser, it's definitely worth 1 watch.

Rating: 5/10

I'm looking forward to watching it but I'm waiting for the blu-ray. I'm pretty sure I know the twist just by reading the plot, which I don't really mind.
I rewatched Hellraiser II, Bloodline, Inferno, and Hellseeker recently and I still enjoy them so I'm sure I'll enjoy this one enough.

[butteredtoast]

The Ritual - 8.3/10 - I liked this movie a lot. Sometimes a movie just checks off everything you're looking for in a movie and this one did it for the most part. Good acting, great atmosphere and suspense, violent (but not overly so), and an interesting story. One problem...CGI. I probably would have given the movie a 9/10 if it weren't for the CGI. This would have been once instance where "less is more" with what you know and see, but it didn't hurt the movie too badly. Occult horror, "horror in the woods," and horror where the characters are in an isolated setting are some of my favorite subgenres so it was easy to like this one. Definite recommend when it hits Netflix this month.

Watched the Maniac Cop movies for the first time in many years and forgot how good they all are, especially the second which is easily the best one. Wasn't a remake supposed to be in development?

Maniac Cop 2 being better than the first reminded me of Horror sequels that are better than the originals. Horror sequels can be hit and miss but there's lots of good ones for sure. What are some that are arguably superior to the originals? Phantasm II, Maniac Cop 2, Aliens and Evil Dead II both leap to mind right away. And here's a controversy A-bomb, Predator 2. There, I said it. Love the original Predator, but I always enjoyed the second more.
