The Horror Thread [Archived] Movie • Page 152

Right. The "MTV demographic." I know that's an outdated reference, but it still fits.

 

It's a fun mix of comedy and suspense. It really taps into our natural fear of old people, especially as kids.

 

The Visit was shameless but really really fun, so I'm definitely looking forward to Split.

 

Haha, Split and Get Out. synonyms.

 

there's an abbott and costello routine here somewhere

 

I am watching Lights Out for the first time since theaters and I love the boyfriend even more the second time. Ur just like... sleezy looking dude he's gonna die immediately BUT HE'S NOT and he's quick thinking and is a nice person who is patient with commitment issues!!

 

I need to rewatch that one, but it was my least favorite wide release horror movie of 2016

So I might as well:
Don't Breathe > The Conjuring 2 > Ouija: Origin of Evil > The Boy > Blair Witch > The Shallows > Lights Out

So it was the only one of those I didn't especially enjoy

 

I haven't seen too many people who had nice things to say about that movie tbh

 

I've seen a lot of people say they liked it. I thought the ghost stuff was good but I didn't like the characters iirc

 

It's great

 

I'll definitely check it out


looks like an interesting concept

 

I actually really liked the characters. Usually with those kinda movies the characters are flat but I thought they did a decent job fleshing them out and making them relatable and a lil more complex than just the stereotypes I was expecting. They also didn't do the classic mistake of showing the ghost. They do a liiiiitle but not enough to ruin it. I could def see how ppl are meh on it but I really enjoyed it and it was a fave of last year! I'm also a sucker for any movie playing on a fear of the dark tho cause screw the dark it's dumb

 

I thought the ghost talking at the end was pretty funny

 

Just finished The Wailing. I dunno about that one.

 

I hate this habit so much! I yell at my sister all the time for not paying attention.

 

I did laugh at that. She was so extra too like sis why are you so obsessed

 

So ouija origin was pretty good? Wrote it off because i didn't think it looked very good.

But what about The Boy

Just saw last night that Under The Shadow is on Netflix. Definitely going to check that out

 

My wife and I are suckers for good-bad horror movies but I don't know how I feel about the boy, lol. Need to rewatch.

 

I thought it was pretty decent and fun.

Brahhhhms

 

what's the last movie that made y'all absolutely terrified?

 

Hmmm, it's been a little while...Maybe the first time I watched Ils?

Granted I was...not sober but still.

 

I'm not sure why, but Texas Chainsaw. Horror movies are gross and sometimes make me feel sick, others make me jump and build tension, but for some reason TCM just terrified me, more than Jaws or anything else.

 

Saw Insidious for the first time this year, and I wouldn't say terrified. Though some of those scenes with them hinting at the demon were p creepy. A lot of the movie fell flat esp the last act, but I enjoyed it. Sequel was kinda meh.
