The Horror Thread [Archived] Movie • Page 740

this makes me want to upgrade to pro

 

Can anyone recommend some good horror movie discussion/review podcasts?

 

people here including myself like the Dead Meat YouTube channel but he has his own separate podcast that he also posts video episodes on YouTube but I never listened to an episode but James the host comes off as super knowledgeable about horror

 

Horror Queers
The Boo Crew
Corpse Club
Dead for Filth with Michael Varrati
Scarred for Life (really great for interviews)

 

Finished putting together my horror marathon for next month. Pretty happy with it!

 

If this is the only thing wanting to make you upgrade, just get JustWatch. It’s a free app that does the same thing

 

Horror Queers
Halloweenies
Saturday Night Freak Show

Those are my 3 go-to horror pods. I can’t stand The Horror Virgin because the host Todd annoys me to no end. I used to listen to The Horror Show but it just became two guys giggling at each other for the majority of the show so I tuned out. Dead Meat has a good podcast, I just wish it was more consistent with having content every week, lately it’s been a coin flip because the hosts are moving (it was announced this morning that they won’t have any new podcasts through the month of October). But when they deliver they really deliver, I feel.

 

Fright Club is one I enjoy.
Used to listen to Shockwaves but eh...

 

Does that let you search your watchlist and filter by service or what’s streaming on it in general?

 

I don’t know about filtering by service, but it does have a watchlist feature built in to it and you can just click on the title you want and it’ll take you directly to it on whatever streaming service it’s currently available on.

 

Dead&Buried playing on shudder tonight. Excited to watch for the first time.

 

Mary Shelly’s Frankenstein with Robert De Niro is on Prime.

 

Is that worth watching? Been on my watchlist for a while now and the mixed reception puts me off.

 

It’s a solid melodramatic horror movie plus Robert De Niro is the monster.

 

just spent 2 days at a vintage drive in that has the original set up from the 50s and they restore a bunch of old horror movie reels and play them, it was all italian movies and it was sick. They played Deep Red, The Psychic, Torso, House At The Edge Of The Park, New York Ripper, and Beyond The Darkness. Great way to start out the spooky season!

Not sure which one I liked more, Deep Red probably because the soundtrack is insane and I love what Argento does with the camera. House At The Edge Of The Park had way too many scenes of assault for me to want to watch it again but the closed situation of it really worked for me (kind of like funny games or green room) and the ending had me dying. I need to rewatch Torso because a huge cloud of fog covered the valley we were in and I couldn't even see the screen, just the light shooting through the fog, it looked crazy.

also if anyone wants to follow me on letterboxd neach’s profile

 

Deep Red is my all-time favorite giallo.

 

Suspiria just edges it out a tiny bit, I just love the color palette/score so much. a lot of Deep Red I was mildly confused which was distracting lol. If you have any other recs let me know! I'm building up a watchlist now

 

I need to watch more Giallo that isn’t Argento.

 

I was confused as hell the first time I watched it and then the second time I was like “who gives a shit” and it just POPPED for me.

 

Bava! Even his pre-giallo stuff. Some is seriously fucked up for the late 50s/early 60s.

 

Is Mother of Tears any good?

 

it's awful

 

lol that makes sense i will definitely be watching it again for the vibes alone

 

Dracula: Dead and Loving It is one of my absolute all time favorites. I actually just bought a new copy on DVD this week.

 

Finally got around to watching Scary Stories to Tell in the Dark tonight. Really enjoyed it
