I've got Jaws, Slumber Party Massacre, Halloween (1978), Halloween (2018), Halloween II, The Howling, Night of the Demons, Pumpkinhead, Sleepy Hollow, Fargo, Clueless, Totoro, Men In Black, Popstar, and The Matrix.

I guess like them.

 

My TV keeps insisting I need to watch a movie called Return to Bloodfart Lake.

 

Guess you gotta

 

I like Alien 3. :(

 

Bloodfart new grindcore band

 

I’m on team Alien 3 Assembly Cut is more than watchable.

 

Watching Prince of Darkness

 

Alien 3 is good gang assemble

 

is it necessary to see Alien before Romulus or can I see the latter first, like, as an experiment?

 

You're free to do as you wish. but all the references will go over your head. might actually be better that way tho tbh lol

 

It works as a standalone, you’ll be fine

 

It would definitely spoil elements of Alien, which would be a shame if you’ve never seen it.

 

The doc about the filmmaker is actually pretty fun!
Zero Budget Heroes: The Legend of Chris Seaver & Low Budget Pictures (2022)

 

Alien 3 is good!

 

more watchable still really bad

 

I almost don't want to watch Alien Resurrection because I was so disappointed in A3.

 

I think resurrection, while flawed, is much more fun.

 

There's fun to be had (it's essentially camp/slapstick-horror), but it's a much worse film

 

@Shakriel watched it too last night. I'll be curious to see what they think.

 

Resurrection is definitely more fun

 

Resurrection is one of the stupidest films I've ever seen and I've seen a lot of stupid shit

 

With an endorsement like that, how can I not be excited?

 

some people enjoy it and godspeed to them, I'd never take that away, but to me it's a mess in the ugliest way. tries to split the difference between a studio friendly Joss Whedon script and weird French arthouse direction and comes out borderline incoherent. it's like the highest budget student film ever made lmao. Winona Ryder and Brad Dourif almost make it work, but it's just a dog's breakfast to the core. my two cents

 

yeah I’ve never been shy about the things I hate but I’ve never wanted that to take away from anyone else’s enjoyment of those things

 

The quality of these films seems to get better with every entry.
