Think I need to give it another watch at some point though, seems like there's a lot I didn't quite absorb. Looooove that movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked Spring, but Resolution kind of slipped my mind every time I was looking for something to watch. I was reading that there's supposed to be some ties to Resolution in The Endless too.

radiatorhums Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Desolation - Pretty simple and effective little movie. Not amazing or anything, but it made for an entertaining way to fill part of an evening. I think my only real complaint is that I didn't care for the ending.

radiatorhums Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I just found out I'm going to be in Chicago for part of Cinepocalypse. I don't know if I can burn my whole trip at it, but I'm thinking that I might buy a pass and try to see a few movies each day while I'm there. Kind of stoked. I've been real interested in a genre fest, but never thought it was something I'd travel just for. KingTacoMunster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Watched Dead End Drive-In last night. Entertaining Ozsplotation film, but hardly an essential watch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted May 21, 2018 Author Share Posted May 21, 2018 Today my wife and I watched: - Flatliners (1990) - Happy Death Day - Boys in the Trees I really enjoyed all of them. Flatliners had some corny moments, but all-around pretty good. Happy Death Day was a lot of fun. Surprisingly I wasn’t expecting the big twist so that was refreshing. Boys in the Trees was cool. There seemed to be a lot going on, but it almost seemed like it wasn’t sure what kind of movie it really wanted to be. There were moments where it felt very much like a horror film, but then other times it seemed to lean more towards the “fantasy” genre. Also I should’ve seen that ending coming from a mile away but it didn’t cross my mind until about 3/4 of the way through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted May 22, 2018 Share Posted May 22, 2018 Estranged - Nice little horror / mystery film that had a good atmosphere and creepiness to it. The exposition on the why didn't feel too organic, but that's a mild complaint. It's a little under 90 minutes and moves real nicely too. Winchester - Kind of knew this wasn't going to be good and I was correct. It wasn't so terrible that is was completely unenjoyable, but it really felt like some producers or the studio wanted The Conjuring only in the Winchester Mystery House. Wish it would've been more of a psychological horror than a sub-par ghost movie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rip Posted May 22, 2018 Author Share Posted May 22, 2018 Almost 2 weeks until Hereditary! Also, according to IMDb, Pascal Laugier’s (Martyrs, The Tall Man) new movie “Ghostland” will be “in theaters” June 22nd. I doubt it’ll see any theaters around me, but I’m excited regardless. One of my favorite directors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Ended up skipping the 4 day pass to Cineapocalypse, but I got tickets to Summer of '84, The Cop Baby, Await Further Instructions and Tales from the Crypt : Demon Knight. Pretty stoked! I'm going to parse through the list again after work and see if anything else interests me, these were just the ones that jumped out on a glance.

kylet Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Posted this in the funko thread, figured it might interest some people here as well Just picked both of these up. They had a few more of each at the mall I go to if anyone is interested. Cost + Tax + Shipping. Pennywise with Wrought Iron through Head ($15....FYE loves to gouge their prices on exclusives) Pennywise In Gutter (Hot Topic Exclusive) ($32.50) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingTacoMunster Posted May 24, 2018 Share Posted May 24, 2018 I'm here for turbo kid 2! The wife and I watched Cargo last night, which I think it a Netflix exclusive and I really enjoyed. nothing spectacular but with all the garbage out there, I thought it was cool.

radiatorhums Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 Watched Primal Rage tonight with a friend and we both liked it a lot! Wonderfully gory creature feature that seemed to be all practical effects. Acting wasn't great and the mythos / plot seemed to be a little sloppy, but overall a real fun watch.

chunkrock Posted May 28, 2018 Share Posted May 28, 2018 My wife and I went to see The Endless on the weekend and it was excellent! It's Sci-Fi-ish horror. It kind of has similar themes to Annihilation. It also has some ties to the filmmakers previous film Resolution which I really loved as well. radiatorhums 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
radiatorhums Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 Watched Puppet Master last night and it was definitely bad, not even in a fun way. I realized I wasn't familiar with the franchise at all and figured I'd dip my toe in with the first one. Anyone know if they get more enjoyable as time goes on or if they're all kind of duds? The last 20 minutes were pretty rad, but any of the non-puppet stuff was real boring / bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The last 20 minutes were pretty rad, but any of the non-puppet stuff was real boring / bad. I believe I’ve only seen the first 2 (maybe 3?) and from what I remember, I had fun watching them. They weren’t amazing at all but they’re good to watch with a group of people. Watched “I Remember You” yesterday. Kind of like an “Icelandic ‘Orphanage’”. So for those who enjoyed that film, you should like this one. Also, I know it’s not “technically” horror, but my wife and I watched a lot of true crime stuff this past weekend. We watched “Evil Genius” which was insaaane. Seriously, check this out if you’re into true crime stuff like The Keepers. Also watched the “Zodiac” movie, and have been making our way through the British show “Encounters with Evil.” Each episode has a theme and it just goes into detail of 3 or 4 different people that committed crimes that fell into that category. Really good stuff. It’s on Netflix (along with Evil Genius). radiatorhums 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Part of the reason is because I'm real interested in Littlest Reich and would like a little knowledge of the franchise going in (even though I think it's technically a reboot).

stranaspank Posted May 29, 2018 Share Posted May 29, 2018 I really need to watch Evil Genius. I was working at an Applebees a block away when the standoff was going on. We weren't allowed to leave the building, and we heard the explosion. That was a weird summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

radiatorhums Posted May 31, 2018 Share Posted May 31, 2018 A friend and I watched Tilt last night. Kind of mediocre physiological thriller. It was enjoyable enough (probably thanks to the margaritas). It mostly just seemed a little unfocused and unsure of how it wanted to tell the story. It was visually well done too, which helped.

radiatorhums Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Revenge - This was fucking awesome. Real stylish rape revenge grindhouse film. Also one the bloodiest movies I've seen in a long time. I'd say this is a must see for everyone in here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
