I’ve search every possible way to explain a movie I saw a few years back and have had zero luck so I thought I would try here…
It’s about a woman who needs extra cash and her Eastern European friend (I think they are both house cleaners) tells her about this secretive job… she has to go to Chinatown to secure a purse that has an address in it (if I remember correctly) and she goes to a warehouse type building. I remember drapery around the room she’s in. It’s actually a torture room where her and a bunch of other women have to torture eachother and get tortured themselves for money. I kind of remember the protagonist being very brave with a reptile? Anyways, it’s not Would you rather, Vile, Hostel, or Martyrs (answers that usually come up in google search) thanks so much for your help!

I'm trying to find a movie I watched a few years ago (sometime in the 2010s) about an infection that causes blue vein-like strands to appear on the infected person's body, and then their eyes explode.

I only remember 2 scenes from the movie, but not a lot of them. The first scene took place in a house with 2 guys, one of them had this blue vein infection. They were both watching a PSA or a news report about this infection, showing the effects of what would happen if you had the infection, going from the starting blue veins and ending at the eyes exploding. The background of the set was yellow, with a guy walking past each room with a person with a different stage of the infection.

The second scene, which I remember much less of, took place in a school theater with a teacher and a student, and the teacher has the infection, and her eyes explode, or she just has the infection

I watched this in the 2010s, but before 2019. The movie didn't look too old from what I remember.

I've asked this question in other places, and nobody has gotten it yet. Here are the movies I have ruled out.

Viral (2016)

Afflicted (2014)

The Cured (2018)

The Hive (2014)

Await Further Instructions (2018)

I have tried to put this in r/movies a few times, and it gets removed. I'm pretty sure it's a horror movie, but I was not fully sure of it. Now that they want to allow it, I have to ask it here

My friend, her boyfriend and I saw Obsession last night. I thought it was fine, some parts had me yawning. I didn't think it was bad at all but also not scary. Her and her boyfriend absolutely loved the movie.

We tried to discuss it a little on the walk home but it felt like we watched two different movies almost. I admittedly am not the most media literate and I like doing deep dives on movies after I've seen them to get a better grasp.

Obviously, the entire movie is a woman being taken advantage of, made to do things against her will, being assaulted. One point we talked about was the scene when he leaves and she freezes and pees herself. To me, my first thought was how assault victims can start to have accidents after being assaulted. My friend snapped back at me that it was obviously to prove she'd been possessed by a demon. She did mention that she watched interviews with director beforehand, so I get being wrong on that one. But I guess it felt almost more layered or it's possible to read into the movie in different ways? I think maybe they focused far more on the demon aspect and I focused more on how it's a.. retelling of reality I suppose? We at least agreed on hating the "adorkable" main character.

We vehemently disagreed on the ending though. To them, they were glad Bare died and that she got to live, a "finally the woman makes it out" type feeling. We've talked extensively before about our exhaustion with the excessive and often fetishization of torturing women in movies and women always having the worst fuckin time. But to me? That was possibly the worst ending. The entire time, Bare has to face no real repercussions for what he's done to her. He's scared, sure, but it read very much to me as how men can treat women to the point of breaking, then play the victim and call the women crazy. Meanwhile, she's pleading for death, hurting herself, and ends up killing her friends basically under his possession. And even at the very end, the loser faces no pain. Can't shoot himself, but swallows a bunch of pills so he feels basically nothing. He gets out, pain free, after everything he's caused. And she wakes up, and is herself again, and has to deal with the reality that she killed two of her friends and the third killed himself. Deal with what she's put her body through, what's been done to her. In all reality, she likely is getting her ass sent to jail and has to live with that insane unfathomable trauma, all stemming from one mans selfish actions. His choices become her burden to bear, and essentially ruin her life. I argued that is in no way shape or form a good ending for her. That in this specific scenario, I don't think the woman living was the happy ending for her.

They argued that she's a pretty woman and people understand there aren't perfect victims and she could easily plea he was obsessed with her and was assaulting her and he drove her to do it, and get off scot free and just live her life. I argued that there was a room full of witnesses of her being unstable and the aggressor that could argue against her.

I'm not saying they're wrong for their opinions, or that my reading for the movie even makes sense, but I'm curious on other people's takes. I get I'm already odd man out because the movie didn't scare me and I thought it was just fine, but is this a case of me being painfully dumb or does it make sense?

I was watching Cape Fear (1962) and noticed in the one scene where Cady is slowly walking towards Bowden’s daughter and she starts running and he’s just walking … so slowly. Reminded me a lot of the Michael Myers walk. Got me thinking - was the iconic Michael Myers slow chase inspired by Cape Fear or maybe an earlier film? Who did the slow walk (chase?) first? I’m sure there’s more movies from an earlier time I just can’t find anything my brief search on reddit lol

Hi guys, this is my first Reddit post so I’m not sure if I’m in the right place but I need help.

I vividly remember watching a movie around 2013-2014 (not sure if the movie was made around that time or not) about a group of friends (or maybe just a couple) who end up at this creepy family’s house. I remember they were forced to sit and have dinner with the family.

So up until this point, the whole movie is a blur except for this specific scene which I think may be the scene to help whoever’s reading this remember: I remember the mother/leader of the family ordered one of her sons to squish one of their skulls under his feet. Like, the person was laying on the floor and he stood on their head and all you could hear was the crunching, squelching sound of the skull being crushed. Side note, the son’s face was visibly upset/uncomfortable bc he didn’t want to do it.

Another thing I can remember is I believe there was a special needs person in the family. Don’t quote me on that part though. Thanks in advance!

I’ll start out with the truck horn from Jeepers Creepers. That thing is just a horn but when you hear it you know something bad is going to happen.

What sound do you think is scary from a horror movie?

Okay so I don't get it,how did the Bride managed to get into Josh's body,was it at the point when Josh screamed GET AWAY or what? Does anyone know and can they explain the ending?

Hey everyone, I’ve been racking my brain trying to remember the title of this movie I watched back in high school.

The plot revolves around this creepy, underground online horror game set in a massive mansion. The twist is that whatever happens to your character in the game happens to you in real life, you die the exact same way.

I distinctly remember it having that gritty, mid-2000s supernatural slasher vibe. Does this ring a bell for anyone? It's driving me crazy, please send help. Thanks.

I remember it vaguely, watching it on late night tv in the 90s, but it was probably from the 70/80s. From what a recall, it was a dark and serious movie too, that took place on a farm.

One scene featured a giant chicken (like bigger than an elephant) that was locked in a barn.

Another scene had a woman horrified that a couple big worm creatures (like the girth of a banana, so much smaller in scale than the chicken) that were crawling on her hand. A proceeding scene had the woman’s hand in bandages, with the dead and bloodied worms in the kitchen sink.

You either totally know what I’m talking about or are completely perplexed.

Thanks in advance.
