TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE (2022)

🩸On Netflix 🩸

Happy Texas Chainsaw Massacre Day! 8/18

Influencers looking to breathe new life into a Texas ghost town encounter Leatherface, an infamous killer who wears a mask of human skin.

I’m not a huge fan of the franchise as I have only seen the 1973 original and the 2003 remake. But this reboot/sequel wasn’t awful (but not great either) as there are some GRUESOME kills (that bus scene was gnarly)! There are lots of plausibility issues, stupid character decisions, and unanswered questions, but you watch it to see Leatherface go on a bloody rampage.

Evil Dead Burn is absolute kaka

WARNING - SPOILERS and a major rant…

OK… Did San Raimi even sign off on this travesty? If he did, I’m not sure what is happening with the world. The characters are way beyond stupid… I mean how could they even put the dad in the car after they all watched him kill the dog with a fork? And to add to the ridiculousness, the son just watched the dad kill his girlfriend and do absolutely nothing about it? And the mom just all of a sudden siding with evil even before she was possessed? There is nothing redeeming about this movie (I can’t bring myself to call it a film). The original Evil Dead (which I saw back in the 80s), Evil Dead II, Army of Darkness, and even the remake of Evil Dead were bloody superb. I’m all for blood and gore and this provides that; however, IMO this mess should be buried and burned.

Thank you for letting me rant.

Rewatched last night, still one of my favorite sci-fi films. (Event Horizon, 1997)

Remember seeing this in the theater when it came out back in the day and despite the 90’s jumpscares, I still love it. Looking back, I especially love how far into cosmic horror it got too. And that was way before I loved cosmic horror as much as I do today.

Mouth of Madness is still a great film, and I love it too, but I think I’ll always like Event Horizon more. (Likely because I saw it first and I love sci-fi too)

Best Horror Movies that take place on/around Halloween

Every year I make a list of 31 horror movies to watch in October. As a little tradition, I like the first and last movie to take place on or around the best day of the year (Halloween) to get into the Spooky Month mood and to cap off the month. I am running low on obvious ones and I would love some suggestions! In previous years I watched:

- Monsterhouse

- Halloween (I also watch the next Halloween in the series every year on the 30th)

- Spirit Halloween The Movie

- Monster Squad

- Murder Party

- Halloween III: Season of the Witch (I broke my own rule but it was too fitting)

- WNUF Halloween Special

- Ghostwatch

I really enjoy any kind of horror movie, serious or not. Just give me really any recs. Thanks so much!

Zombie Tidal Wave (2019) has got zombies and tidal waves, I think.

Synopsis:
A small coastal town is in danger, as an unknown power has forced zombie hordes to rise from the depths of the ocean, and now everyone is in danger. Fisherman Hunter Shaw (Ian Ziering) takes the lead of a group of locals to save the survivors and fight.

Of the hundreds of movies on my letterboxd watchlist Zombie Tidal Wave (2019) is the one I’m looking forward to the most.
There’s absolutely no chance this doesn’t rock my world, if only I could find it streaming somewhere I can access.

Has anyone seen it?
Tell me it’s worth the wait!

Horror movie recomendations needing to scare my boyfriend.

Hi, i am 33 female and i need help finding a horror movie so that my boyfriend 32 male can get scared as much as I do.

Heres the sitch

I get scared easily. I love film and i enjoy horror movies that talk about serious topics. Horror movies like Midsomar or Obssesion. But I watch something like the conjuring movies which we are both going through the series i am hitting every jumpscare. My boyfriend loves horror movies, but he doesnt get scared. He likes watching vicariously through me. He is on the spectrum and usally figures it out or just isnt so invested that he can truly get scared. I tried showing him Annilation and the bear scene he thought it was "interesting". he knew the "horror" of the situation and felt bad for the characters but wasnt scared. (Like i was)

From what I can gather he likes cosmic horror. He needs a horror movie where he cant figure out whats going on. So he can get scared. We both do not like body horror. To both of us its more cringe then horror. Any thoughts I want him to be scared for a change. Thank you so much everyone :)

Horror movie ideas?

Looking for something that fits into literally ANY of the following categories, me and fiancé are horror fans who have cleared netflix horror section completely.

Abandoned/creepy carnival yet still inhabited by evil or darkness

Gutsy gory mass killings (similar to scream or TXCSM)

Classic horror vibes

Anything halloween related (the holiday, not the actual movie, it kinda sucks imo)

Anything that matches above would be absolutely amazing! Or any other suggestions would be appreciated too, they dont necessarily HAVE to fall into above<3

**Bonus points if you can name me witchy, halloween, autumn themed movies for me to watch alone, big autumn/halloween fan.**
\^\^
I love the craft, halloweentown, sleepy hollow, anything like those:)

Tia:)
