2024 HORROR DISCUSSION THREAD


RIPPA

Recommended Posts

I have a soft spot for sad alcoholics, so Lon has always been cool in my book. And if you look at the list of his acting roles, that guy was a worker. He said he did everything, even stuntwork like falling down cliffs, almost getting killed by a train, etc.

Hysteria

Julie Bowen, Anna Camp and "special guest star" Bruce Campbell

All the episodes hit Peacock on Oct 18 - however, if you would rather watch it like a normal TV show, USA will show one episode every Friday

I watched The Deliverance on Netflix.  Highest recommendation to avoid unless you really want to see an Evangelical film masquerading as a horror movie.  
 

Also, it was just so ham-fisted and clumsy.  Look, horror films have been used as allegory forever.  But if you’re trying to make an allegory for the collapse of the African American family, poverty, etc, you have to put in the work and not whatever this shit was.  Jordan Peele it was not.

The article doesn't really go into it but apparently the only reason the movie didn't get totally scrapped is because of the pressure put on them by Stephen King himself

Mount Rushmore of horror icons?

I've come up with:

Freddy Krueger, Leatherface, Michael Myers, Norman Bates.

I toyed between Norman Bates and Regan MacNeil. Might put Regan back in. John Kramer narrowly missed out.

Mount Rushmore of slasher icons?

Freddy Krueger, Leatherface, Michael Myers, Ghostface.

I also considered Chucky. Would John Kramer count? You may be aghast I haven't included Jason in either, he's never appealed to me like the others have.
