    My vote would be either Maniac or Don't Breathe. Hell, watch them both!

    Love The Sacrament. All of the Joe Swanberg/Adam Wingard/Amy Seimetz films, mumblecore or whatever? All great. The Innkeepers might be my least favorite but I thought it was still solid with its scares.

    By Them do you mean the French language film (Ils)? that was a pretty good home invasion movie

    I liked the Sacrament quite a bit, House of the Devil less so. haven't seen Innkeepers

    House of the Devil is a bit of a slow burn but it's worth it.

    I hear ya ^^.

    Guys I'm running out of October to watch movies. I think I'm going to spend tomorrow with all of the "____of the Dead" Romero films (remakes too), because I'm gonna need a full day for that. Actual Halloween is going to be Halloween/Nightmare on Elm Street/Friday the 13th (haven't decided an order).

    I'm biased towards House of the Devil and Innkeepers as they were both shot in Connecticut (movies are rarely shot here). When I first saw House, the college campus looked familiar and then I realized it was shot where I went to grad school.

    Okay okay! It really is on my list! These aren't in order. Just to keep track:


    A girl walks home alone at night
    Train to busan
    Tell me how I die
    House (Hausu)
    Creepshow
    Hatchet
    Green room
    It Follows
    28 weeks later
    Evil Dead (original and 2013)
    Drag me to hell
    Signal
    30 Days of Night
    Crimson Peak
    Sinister
    Splinter


    as mentioned, the Romero films and the "classic" three are already penciled in for the 29th and 31st.

    Super bummed, a theater is showing a double feature of Blood Diner and Spookies tonight, but finances are too tight for me to make the trip to Miami.

    It's about 50/50 on that list.

    If you don't care where you stream things, you can probably find one online.

    A bunch of must watch movies there. Definitely watch House though

    I don't have a computer and prefer not to watch movies on tablet. I stream everything on PS3

    Honestly I'm surprised to see Maniac on both those lists. I thought the score was amazing, and EW did a great job. Though it has some absolutely brutal/over the top death scenes. It's one of the few movies I've seen where it made me really uncomfortable.

    I had forgotten the ending of NOTLD. Kinda fucked up.

    Haha, the movie definitely falters a bit when you put some thought to it, but I still enjoyed it and thought it was technically impressive. Couldn't agree more about the twist though. Had trouble getting back into it afterward; really kind of pissed me off because the setting/motive/harness/chains was suggestive enough so to then double down on it and in such a disgusting manner was gratuitous

    i really enjoyed Pontypool up until the end. too off the rails/saccharine? especially that stinger lmao. but that first 3/4 was really tight and inventive.
