Reply to Let's talk about how Sinister is probably one of the scariest horror movies of all time by VeryBonelessPizza
It would have been a lot more interesting as >!a cult rather than a supernatural Mr. Boogey. Also some of the other family killings just don't make sense because a child would not be able to physically pull them off.!<
But the buildup was great even if the ending felt deflated, and it had the 5th best jumpscare I've ever seen in a movie

It loses it about 2/3 of the way through and has the stupidest ending in a horror movie. Ooooo, the dude jumps in front of the camera. Dumb.
Also, the film implies there's this ancient, supernatural demon character running around carrying a video camera while murdering people. That's just hilarious.
Edit: Oh, wait. The kids are murdering people while carrying video cameras. That's less hilarious but not scary.

Reply to The Banshees of Inisherin’s Writer-Director Has Made a Career of “Irishness.” It’s All a Load of Blarney by HanSoloHeadBeg
This is so fucking stupid. The writer thinks they're making this big expose on him mostly living in England. This is known, doesn't mean he doesn't understand the culture or have tethers to it, given both his parents are Irish.

Reply to Over 2 months ago, I put a video together about the appearance of Heather Donohue's voice from Blair Witch Project (who changed her name to Rei Hance in 2021) and how she was not credited or paid for her voice appearing in Academy Award Nominee, Tár. by HalpTheFan
People really say that? Her performance is incredible.

Not quite because the opening was not matching the tone of the overall film, but likewise to misjudging it completely, I can tell you that many people left the theater after the opening of Bruno unknowing to just how far it was willing to go.

Reply to Canadian low-budget horror film Skinamarink is incredible. But lower your expectations by BurstYourBubbles
I in no way had any idea it was going to be two hours of hallway shots and whispering, my friend and I definitely went in expecting a traditional film and hated this. It's not that experimental film isn't great, but it's not our cup of tea and didn't expect it from a wideish release.
That said I was genuinely terrified for a large chunk of it, I left the theater feeling so tense that I was shaking. Unfortunately dark hallway shots and whispering really mess me up lol
So I guess it was the most boring experience I ever had while being genuinely scared.

I could care less about a hang job scene but seeing the dude bust onto some beach rocks was just stupid.

I’ve never seen it but the commercials use to scare the shit out of me. Way more than any other horror movie commercial or actual movie.

biggest mistake i ever made at the movies.... back in the 70s I walked out of West Side Story after a few minutes... figured it would be a violent gang movie.... when the tough guys started singing and dancing, i thought 'this is whack' and left.
i missed out on a lot of magnificent music.

Really? Can you point me towards something that details the differences? I’ve not heard of this.

I haven't. I make it a point to stay no matter how the film turns out.

Thanks for letting me know. That’s basically what a lot of the reviews said. I was going to go on discount day but sounds like it won’t be worth $6.

The worst Tarantino movie IMO, havent seen Once upon a time in hollywood, and not going to either.Hate it when people take real people, and twist history with something that never happened. that's why i don't like Inglorious bastards either.
Pulp Fiction, Reservoir dogs, Django unchained, Hateful eight are my favorite Tarantino movies

The best is the very eerie, psychologically-charged photomontage film that's shown to the undercover reporter (played by Warren Beatty) when he's being evaluated as a potential assassin (or stooge) at The Parallax Corp. in The Parallax View.

I literally just answered your question, he was in movies in the 90’s/2000’s that a lot of redditors enjoyed at a younger age

Kind of the opposite, but when my wife and I saw Crawl we were at least an hour in, a character was getting absolutely savaged by an alligator, when three teenagers walked into the (mostly empty) theater, walked up to our row, and told us we were in their seats. We argued with them that no, these were our seats and the movie was half over, when the first one asked "wait, isn't this Annabelle?"

Watch all of them. Don't forget true romance and from dusk till dawn. Imo natural born killers is a Tarantino movie butchered by Oliver stone

I really think BWP is as superb a drama as it is a fun horror, about Heather realizing she's gotten herself and her friends killed by something they can't possibly understand, and her performance is such a huge part of that.
The method camping-in-a-forest stuff can only get so much credit, the whole movie lives or dies on her central performance.
