J.T. Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 Since we're sniping at poor Marty's list, I will say that I think that grade of A for XX is a bit high. It's definitely a solid B and is in the upper third of all of the horror portmanteaus I've watched over the years. The opening segment (The Box) is particularly chilling. Other than that, congratulations on your achievement! Back in the day I could do complete the 31 Days challenge in my sleep, but lots and lots of real life have kicked in lately.

Curt McGirt Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 Even as one of the biggest horror fans on here I still don't think I have ever done the 31 days thing. Kudos Marty. Onibaba was one oppressive, nightmarish film. Now TCM needs to not cheat us and play Kwaidan again so I can scratch that off my bucket list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J.T. Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 And in record time even for Hollywood, Paramount has pounced on the box office from IT! and greenlit a remake of Pet Sematary with Kevin Kotsch and Dennis Widmyer (co-helmed the movie, Starry Eyes) to direct.

Curt McGirt Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 My friend/bandmate did a bang-up job of Jason from Friday Part 2 this year. He was fretting over finding a bag to cut a hole in only to look in the trash pile in his apartment to see a nasty old stained pillowcase his girl was throwing out haha. All he was missing was a pitchfork. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 If you're looking for something a little more recent than the TCM lineup tonight, Chiller is showing Sleepwalkers, Fright Night (1985), and The Babadook. The Stand miniseries is running right now. El Rey is busy disappointing us with a Puppet Master marathon and Ovation, of all channels, has them beat on the cheap just by playing Night of the Living Dead, House on Haunted Hill, the Little Shop of Horrors musical and Arachnophobia (!). EDIT: Logo is playing The Craft right now, then the two Ghostbusters, then THE HALLOWEEN ROSEANNE EPISODES~! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted October 31, 2017 Author Share Posted October 31, 2017 AMC is having a marathon of all of the Michael Myers Halloween movies: Good, Bad, & Otherwise. Poor forgotten Season Of The Witch... I'm honestly surprised they didn't go in the direction of organic programming on the cheap and have a Walking Dead marathon or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Me too. That must mean the Myers movies have such a good locked-in deal that they can't resist. Season of the Witch was baller at the Art this year. At least somebody appreciates it enough to get some airtime, and at an actual theater no less!

jaedmc Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Got in Rosemary's Baby, which is an all time favorite of mine. Not just horror film, either. It's just a great movie. Also saw PIECES for the first time which is more snugs into that space between giallo and co-ed slasher. The fucking gore is outstanding and the kills are often laughable. I'd recommend this for a "Let's hang out and watch something bloody we can laugh and make fun of" party. The last jump scare is fucking HILARIOUS. One of the all time best zingers I've ever seen. Going to try and fit in two more tonight, and call it a great season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 I caught the end of Rosemary's Baby the other day. John Cassavetes is such a contemptable slug of a man. The Japanese dude taking pictures and yelling HAIL SATAN always cracks me up. Pieces might be revisited tonight if I don't go out. That movie is a blast. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Sheldon Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 Saw Nosferatu (1922) on a big screen with organist Peter Krasinski improvising the music. Amazing! The print was not one I had seen before, I highly suspect it was the Kino Blu-Ray version but I'll have to research that. Seen the film countless times, but it's one of my nerdgasm titles. Was unsure of the music going in, but I was blown away. Krasinski is a master. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(BP) Posted November 2, 2017 Share Posted November 2, 2017 We watched Freddy vs Jason the other night, and the Scary Terry parody from Rick and Morty actually undersells how often Freddy calls someone a bitch. I hadn't seen it since it was in theaters, but I honestly still liked it a lot with the exception of poor Kelly Rowland given some awful dialogue involving Columbine and a gay slur that even 15 years ago was ill-advised. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J.T. Posted November 5, 2017 Author Share Posted November 5, 2017 For those of you that are morbidly curious and have time to kill and the patience of Job, A Cure For Wellness debuted this weekend on Showtime. It should be available On Demand now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
