Horror Movie Discussion Thread

[Jason.]

Given that the majority of the forum are fans of the horror genre, I thought it would be cool to have a horror discussion thread where you can pretty much talk about the horror genre or any of your favourite horror films.

[LukeB]

Horror :love:

[LukeB]

The final destination isn't even bad :oh:

Last 'horror' movie I saw at cinema was The Forest and it was so bad

[Jason.]

I've heard really crap reviews about the Forest. But then I wasn't really interested in seeing it in the first place. What's it about?

[Jamie89]

What would you do if you had a final destination esque premonition, on a plane let's say? Would you alert everyone and risk making a complete fool of yourself and possibly being sectioned in case it didnt come true, or would you try and convince everyone to get off the plane? (Or just get off quietly and not say anything)

[Samm]

The last horror movie I saw was Annabelleb at Halloween last year

[Jason.]

I'd tell the people I like to get off and leave the rest

[Jason.]

That cast looks really I Know What You Did Last Summer-esque :worry:

[Jordan.]

I've heard really crap reviews about the Forest. But then I wasn't really interested in seeing it in the first place. What's it about?

A woman goes looking for her twin sister who has gone missing in a forest where people commit suicide and then she starts going insane herself whilst there. The story could have actually been good it was just craply made and there wasn't any real scary moments.

[Jordan.]

The last horror movie I saw was Annabelleb at Halloween last year

I liked this. Perched for The Conjuring 2

[Jamie89]

The final destination isn't even bad :oh:
It had some ok moments individually (and one of my favourite deaths in the series) but as a whole I thought it was pretty awful. It just felt wrong

[LukeB]

It felt like a tesco version of the previous films

[Lostie!]

Urban Legend is so underrated and deserves more appreciation than it gets. Best slasher after Scream 2 imo.

This is about a female police officer who has to stay in a police station on her own for the last shift before it closes and strange **** starts to happen

[RichardG]

I just finished watching We Are What We Are and it was kinda boring ngl but the final ending scene was sooooo satisfying...

...when the girls ate their dad. :love:

I also watched The Gift yesterday which I don't think is technically a horror film but it was really low key creepy and super twisted. I like films like that where the "bad guy" is human and it feels like it could actually happen none of the supernatural stuff scares me at all.

[Jason.]

But it has Brooke from Scream TV series in it :oh:

Mess I didn't know that was actually her. I just thought it was someone who looked like her :laugh:

[Amy Jade]

This one is a thriller with horror elements, a serial killer starts broadcasting live streams of victims...the more people who visit the site the quicker the victim dies! animal lovers beware you'll hate the killer after the first few scenes :(

It's springbreak and Lake Victoria is jam packed with college kids, when the lake floor shifts a long thought dead breed of piranha escape from the depths and start feeding

[Jason.]

Just watched the trailer for Untraceable and it looks really good. I've never heard of it before but it looks like one of those suspenseful thrillers which I love. I'll check it out sometime. Thanks for these suggestions.

[Xtopher]

The best this year so far is The Witch. Loved it a lot, talked to the audience afterwards and they were shocked.

I love it, I think it's very underrated and has a really great cast.

If you like it it'd recommend Copycat, too. It's a psychological thriller with strong horror elements and stars Sigourney Weaver.

[Amy Jade]

The best this year so far is The Witch. Loved it a lot, talked to the audience afterwards and they were shocked.

I prefered The Boy personally

[Cal.]

The Boy was really good but the twist at the end didn't feel necessary it just felt like they were trying to throw something out there for the sake of there being a twist

[Jamie89]

Has anyone ever seen The Relic? It's a 90's monster horror. I saw it when I was really young and remember enjoying it but it was pretty under the radar I think, not many people have heard of it. I'm tempted to watch it again to see if I'd still enjoy it now I'm older and if it's aged well or not.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

The Boy was really good but the twist at the end didn't feel necessary it just felt like they were trying to throw something out there for the sake of there being a twist

Really? I found The Boy to be boring and not that great. I went with 4 other people and they all the said the same. I mean it had potential to be good, but it just failed on so many levels.

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Anyone else seen a vampire film called Midnight Son? I highly recommend it, its a good film actually.

[Jason.]

Watched All The Boys Love Mandy Lane last night for the first time and I really enjoyed it. It's one I've been waiting to see for quite a bit now but I finally got around to it. I wasn't expecting that twist at the end but it was good. I also loved the feel and atmosphere of the film. It reminded me a lot of the original Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

It also has Amber Heard as Mandy Lane - one of my favorite actresses. :lovedup:

[Niamh.]

The Boy was really good but the twist at the end didn't feel necessary it just felt like they were trying to throw something out there for the sake of there being a twist

I thought the twist was the best thing about the boy, it was pretty dull up until then

[Lostie!]

I've really been wanting to watch this, it sounds brilliant and from what I've seen it's been really well received.

[Babayaro.]

The best this year so far is The Witch. Loved it a lot, talked to the audience afterwards and they were shocked.

I was pretty disappointed by this, I think the hype ruined it for me :sad:

I mean, it's a good film but idk there was just something missing, I was expecting a bit more from the ending and was left feeling like "Is that it?". I'll probably watch it again some time to see if my opinion changes but overall i'd give it a pretty solid 7/10 opposed to the 9 or 10 I was expecting.

[Amy Jade]

I agree with you on the Witch, way too much hype imo

It's very well acted but that's about the nicest thing I can say about it.

[Marsh.]

I watched The Boy over the weekend.

:omgno: I went from laughing my ass off at the absurdity of it to being creeped out. :worry:

[Marsh.]

The Boy was really good but the twist at the end didn't feel necessary it just felt like they were trying to throw something out there for the sake of there being a twist

Tbh, I felt it made the film.

It didn't quite work as a supernatural movie for me, so the twist actually brought everything together that happened up to that point.

I laughed my arse off at the dolly he dressed in her clothes. :joker:

[Niamh.]

I watched The Boy over the weekend.

:omgno: I went from laughing my ass off at the absurdity of it to being creeped out. :worry:

I was really annoyed that we never got to see under his mask. i thought he'd be all burned up and stuff from the fire

[Marsh.]

Yeah, I expected her to rip it off in the fight.
And I was so glad when her boyfriend was killed.

[Jason.]

Is anyone else excited for Blair Witch? I wasn't sure about it when I first heard it announced but seeing the reviews it sounds amazing!

If it's anything like the 1999 one then I don't think I'll bother with it as I found that one to be really boring and so overrated.

[Lostie!]

I really hope I get to go and see it when it's out

[Jamie89]

If it's anything like the 1999 one then I don't think I'll bother with it as I found that one to be really boring and so overrated.

That's why I wasn't keen when I first heard about it, and usually I'm not swayed by reviews but they've been so good and the way they've been describing it makes it sound like something I'd love, so I'm really excited about it now. I think also, with the general feeling about the original being overrated, it would make reviewers less inclined to talk this one up unless it really warranted it... maybe. I hope anyway :laugh:

[Jake.]

[Tom4784]

I'm unsure about Blair Witch. The reviews have been strong for it but, judging from the trailer, they've removed all the ambiguity of the original and that was the most interesting part of it.

I watched the trailer and it looks quite good actually. The film poster looks great too. It looks much more intense and action-packed than the original - nothing happened in the first one and it felt more like a bad documentary to me. I'll probably watch it now as it's out in 2 weeks. I tend to take reviews with a pinch of salt too because most of the films I end up enjoying tend to get bad reviews. :laugh:

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Society still remains my favorite horror film.

[reece(:]

Anyone seen any of these and have thoughts? I want to go back to some and rewatch because I think I remember enjoying them but idk which order.

Lovely Molly
Devil's Due
The Last Exorcism
The Quiet Ones
The Pact
The Possession
Chernobyl Diaries
Grave Encounters
House at the End of the Street
Silent Hill Revelation
Cabin in the Woods
Evil Dead Remake

[Drew.]

Saw House at the End of the Street a few weeks ago, it's not great but Jennifer Lawrence is a good enough excuse to watch it

[Babayaro.]

I watched Chernobyl Diaries the other day and I thought it was ok. It had potential to be really good and the ending was ridiculous lol.

[Braden]

I'm planning to re-watch all of the Scream films when I get the time, but I have to be in the right mood and setting to watch them :love:

I really enjoyed that movie for the setting and cinematography

[Shaun]

Cabin in the Woods :worship: not a fan of horrors at all so enjoyed that for its comedy elements (but still quite scary I thought)

[LukeB]

^ I might watch that film now actually.

[Jason.]

Is anyone else interested in Don't Breathe coming out on Friday?

I really want to see it.

Sally's was awful she was so ****ing annoying

Over the past 2 nights I've rewatched Rob Zombie's Halloween series. The first one is okay although I hate the characters, but I hated the second one. Don't get why people love the second one so much.

[Jake.]

I've never seen Halloween, must give it a watch

[Jake.]

I watched PA6 tonight, what an awful film (posted a review in the "what movie did you last watch" thread).

Such a shame, the first was great (didn't see it in cinema) whilst the next two after that were fantastic cinema experiences imo. I don't think we're gonna have a film that spreads from word of mouth like the first one did for a very long time.

[Jason.]

H2 is the worst film in the franchise. Well it's joint with Halloween Resurrcraption.

Left H3 out.

I hope the new one sits somewhere between 6 and H20.

[Xtopher]

I subscribed to Shudder.com last night to watch Frankenhooker and Hellraiser 1 and 2. They have a great selection if you're into cult classics, b-horror and foreign. Gonna do Nekromantik tonight. Haven't seen it in years.

[Jason.]

H1 > H2 > H4 > H20 > H6 > RZH > H3 > H5 > HR > RZH2

Halloween 3 is good if you look at it as a standalone 80s horror film and not part of a Michael Myers franchise otherwise it's weaker in comparisons to the films that do have Michael in.

I hope the new one is better than Rob Zombie's remakes, the fact that John Carpenter is directing / involved gives me some hope. But then the director of Halloween 2 (the original) is the same person who gave us the insult that is Halloween Resurrection. But then this is JC so I'm still a tad optimistic.

Lots of people are saying that John Carpenter hasn't been good for years so I'm hoping that writing for Michael again makes him more creative. He only did for Halloween 2 for the money and was actually the person who chose to make it more gory and he said he got drunk whenever he wrote for the script because he had no faith in the story due to planning the original to be a standalone. So yeah, I'm not sure whether he'll be good or not. The 30 year break will probably help him out.

[Xtopher]

It's such a camp classic. Wanna date? Going out? Looking for some action? Got any money?

You could kind of see it. As much as it's the second best film it doesn't really go anywhere and although setting it on the same night helps the feel, he didn't really do anything with any of the characters. Laurie spends like the whole time in a coma until the chase scene and none of the others are developed.

That's true. 3/4 of the film is just him picking off the hospital staff one by one and then it's the chase scene. The only thing we really learn is that she's his sister.

[Jamie89]

What do people think is the best era for horror movies?

Some of my favourite horrors come from the 70's/80's but I'd probably say the late 90's/early 00's resurgence that Scream started is my favourite era overall because there were so many great ones.

I'd say the early-80's (1981 in particular). Not only was the slasher subgenre at its peak but in general everything horror was top-notch - supernatural, ghost, zombie, vampires, creature features. I also love the cheesy atmosphere of 80s films. :laugh:

Late-90's / post-Scream era would definitely be a close second, especially being a massive slasher fan and having a slew of teen horror films coming out one after the other (The Craft, Scream, IKWYDLS, Urban Legend, The Faculty, Halloween H20, Idle Hands, Disturbing Behaviour, Final Destination, Cherry Falls, Valentine etc). Plus I grew up when all these films came out so it's nostalgic for me. :laugh: It was the last good period of horror really before the remakes took over the mid/late-00's and the supernatural craze taking over the 10's.

Barb shade?

[Amy Jade]

Disturbing Behaviour is a great little movie, a little predictable but still good and it features future scream queen Katharine Isabelle (of Ginger Snaps, Freddy Vs Jason andAmerican Mary)

No it was terrible. But thanks for reminding me to watch the original

[Jason.]

Does anyone else think the BC remake is pretty cute?

It's a fun little popcorn flick if you don't compare it to the original as it pretty much destroyed whatever made that so unsettling and creepy by relying too much on the blood and gore and giving Billy a backstory.

I don't really take it seriously. The cast is fantastic :love:

[Jason.]

So I've been rewatching the original eight Friday the 13th movies over the past week as it's been a while. They really should've stopped after The Final Chapter imo as they began to go downhill from then on. Although I do enjoy Jason Lives and New Blood but they're not on par with the first four films. In general though I still think the franchise is kinda overrated. The Halloween franchise did it better >>>>

[Cal.]

Friday the 13th is so boring

[Tom4784]

The F13 films are just terrible pastiches of Halloween.

[Lostie!]

I've never bothered with any of the Friday sequels but I actually did quite like the original (with the exception of the snake murder :nono: and the mystery element being completely pointless).

[DrunkerThanMoses]

Nightmare on Elm Street series for me

[Jason.]

One thing that doesn't help the F13th franchise is that it begins to get stale and repetitive after the first few sequels. I guess some people could say the same for Halloween but at least the Halloween franchise flows and made an effort to tie the sequels together with two different timelines instead of just having a bunch of teens in every film only to butcher them all off by the end and then bring in a new bunch the next sequel, none of which bear any relevance to the events of prior films. The continuity is a mess too. I'm just picky when it comes to things like that so it annoys me.

[Cal.]

I've had dreams about Wrong Turn since I first watched it, the latest being last night. Just thought I'd let you all know.

[Jason.]

I want to see Split.

Get Out also comes out next month I think.

[Babayaro.]

Has anyone seen The Girl with All the Gifts?

I remember really wanting to see it when the trailer was released.

[Amy Jade]

shut up

[Marsh.]

MESS

Century so far is only the last 17 years so Scott's probably right considering the vast majority of modern horror movies are trash.

[Babayaro.]

I'm not trolling but Drag Me to Hell is so bad

[Fetch The Bolt Cutters]

you are ****ing trolling

[Jason.]

I'm going to watch Drag Me To Hell now

Actually I do too much on modern horror films. The endless remakes and slew of supernaturals are boring but there's been some great individual horror films in the last fifteen years.

[Babayaro.]

I lowkey prefer modern horrors oop

[Jason.]

Remakes are dying out now I think? The last one I remember was Evil Dead and that was four years ago.

[Marsh.]

Okay, this is a Marsh opinion I can agree with

Every opinion of mine is golden.

Blair Witch Project was practically a remake. Nothing new about it. Trash to the very core.

Didn't even see it oop

I think the 1999 one is one of the most overrated horror films. :worry:

[Jake.]

the original blaire witch is great so DON'T :kim:

(i havent seen the remake)

[Amy Jade]

Be My Cat: A Film for Anne is such a creepy movie. I don't mind found footage horror so I wasn't against it like a lot of people were but watching it I felt a bit dirty if that makes sense? I felt like I was watching a documentary. I saw it before seeing a trailer and thought I had the wrong stream.

It's very strange though and probably won't be for everyone.

[Amy Jade]

The remake era has slowed down but there are still a few coming

IT and Inside are coming soon.

http://www.upcominghorrormovies.com/tags/movie-tags/remakes

[JerseyWins]

I need more horror movies to watch. I've moved more to comedies and thrillers when it comes to movies even though I'm a big horror fan. There just isn't much greatness lately in horror.

I'm looking forward to the new Friday the 13th whenever that comes out.

Maybe the Bye Bye Man will be good??? Edit: Oh I just saw it came out already and it has awful reviews. :joker:

[Amy Jade]

F13th remake is still in development with no cast or confirmed plot.

Only thing that's well known is that it's being filmed in Louisiana this spring and it's set in the 70s/80s so far and obviously Breck Eisner is directing.

[jennyjuniper]

Silent Hill is a great horror movie.

[Jason.]

Is that IKWYDLS remake still going ahead? I'm sure it was set to be released this year but I've literally heard nothing about it since 2015.

[Cal.]

I hate when they announce these movies and then never follow through.

Another Halloween movie has been rumoured for 8 years now but I think it'll be coming this year or next.

I swear there was meant to be another Texas Chainsaw after the 2013 one.

[Amy Jade]

Yes it's still going ahead, it'll be a lot more like the book according to bulmhouse writer Mike Flanagan. The books awful though, incredibly boring and the Helen (Sarah Michelle Gellar) character is reduced to a tiny role. Not chase scene for Helen either which imo if the best and most memorable part of IKWYDLS

The new TCM has been filmed and is in post-production, it's called Leatherface, it's a prequel about how it all started and stars Sam Strike who played the original Johnny Carter in Eastenders.

Same here but I'm really conflicted on the new Halloween movie? In a way I kinda don't want a new film and I'd like the franchise to be left alone so the number of bad films don't outnumber the number of good films. Plus idk what they would do with it as pretty much every timeline has had its closure (Laurie's ended in H20/Resurrection and the remake timeline ended in H2 and I don't think RZ would come back as he didn't even want a second film in the first place, plus it would be random if they went back to H4-6). I guess it could just be Michael stalking a bunch of random teens but idk.

Oh keep it then, Helen was the only good character.

I think it's a little too soon for a remake of IKWYDLS anyway. The original still holds up pretty well and it's only just been twenty years since it was made. I guess a modern version by today's standards would be cool with what they could do with it (similar to Scream/Scream 4) and I wouldn't mind if they remade it fixing all the flaws of the original (better characters, better lead and better reveal) but I'm not interested if they're going to drift away from the entire concept.

welp i meant evil dead where tf did resi come from

I was wondering. :laugh:

Yeah I love the Evil Dead remake, one of my favourite horror remakes.

Didn't know about this. Now I'm reeeeeally looking forward to it. TCM is probably my favorite horror movie series.

[Cal.]

Oh yeah I remember reading about Leatherface when Sam Strike first got cast!

I doubt it'd go anywhere near RZ movies since John Carpenter is going to be behind it. I think it'll be a reboot of the original story of Michael stalking a group of girls.

[Jason.]

Slashers need to make a comeback tbh

[Jason.]

I love TCM but Texas Chainsaw 3D was absymal. I hope the new one is better.

[Cal.]

I enjoyed TC3D. It was a bit of a pointless 'direct sequel' considering besides the first 4 minutes or so it jumped ahead like 30 years.

[JerseyWins]

I liked Texas Chainsaw 3D but it wasn't anything special while the 2003 & 2006 ones are like two of my favorite movies of all time, at least within horror.

[Jason.]

The Beginning :love:

[Cal.]

The 2006 one bored me.

[Cal.]

Is Leatherface a prequel to the original or remake?

[Jason.]

Original.

The 2006 one was a prequel to the remake.

[Cal.]

Wasn't much of a prequel IMO. Could have been a sequel if you took out the baby in the dumpster parts.

[Cal.]

Also I don't know how comfortable I'll be with wanting the teenage Leatherface to ruin mehttp://cdn.thisisbigbrother.com/customavatars/avatar91218_174.gif

[Lostie!]

I used to be so into horror and nowadays new horrors just rarely interest me. I'm finding myself way more interested in exploring older horrors (by older I mean silent movie era), might give The Cabinet of Dr Caligari a watch sometime soon. It's been on my list for a while, it looks creepy as ****.

From the bits and pieces of those really old horrors I've seen, the sheer atmosphere is way above anything we'd get nowadays.

[JerseyWins]

I have a huge list of movies to watch that I never get to, I just keep adding on to it... :joker: Any suggestions on what to watch from this:

Mine Games
Crazy Eights
Willow Creek
The Strangers
As Above So Below
Would You Rather
Silent House
Orphanage
Orphan
The Forest
Rec (apparently this is not in English though?)
Mama
Blair Witch
Friend Request
The Babadook
Smiley

[Jason.]

The Strangers is overrated. I watched it last week and I thought it was kinda flat.

Orphan is really good, it has a great twist too.

[Babayaro.]

As Above So Below is surprisingly good, and Rec is fantastic! It being in Spanish makes it better tbh

[JerseyWins]

Yeah, I've heard Orphan especially & Rec are really good movies. And I've been wanting to see As Above So Below for a while.

How similar is Rec to Quarantine? (if any of you have seen Quarantine)... I thought Quarantine was a great movie (1 & 2, idk if there's been more than that) and love the idea of it so Rec might be the way to go.

[Babayaro.]

Quarantine is a good film, but it's pretty much a carbon copy of Rec and was only made to make some quick money. I prefer Rec though, as there's just something about it being in a foreign language that I love. There are some differences in the film however, so don't let that put you off. I didn't like Quarantine 2 lol, it was a massive step down from the first. Rec 2 is a pretty solid film as well, definitely worth a watch.

[RichardG]

i saw a film called mother's day in hmv earlier, has anyone watched it? is it any good? it looked like some kind of home invasion type film idk. does anyone have any other recommendations for films like that? i don't find supernatural horror films scary, only really ones that are human v human.

[Jason.]

I went to see Split today.

It wasn't as scary and jolting as I expected but I still enjoyed it nonetheless. Excellent performances from James McAvoy and Betty Buckley. Hedwig made me scream :joker::love:

I need to watch Unbreakable as I've heard Split is a sequel to that and the ending ties in to it.

It can't be overrated because it wasn't particularly well received by most :fist:. If anything it's vastly underrated, one of the most genuinely unnerving horrors I've seen.

[King Gizzard]

cabin in the woods tbh

[Amy Jade]

Oooh I loved this film the part with the dog was so disturbing

I love it too, it's very underrated and kind of forgotten but it's really well put together imo and the cast is pretty solid.

[JerseyWins]

Speaking of home invasion horror movies, I think these kinda, if not exactly, fit under that category: I Spit On Your Grave & The Last House On The Left are pretty decent horrors although pretty twisted... only for those who don't hate gruesome/torture horror films.

Ooh I just came in to ask if anyone had seen it. I want to watch it but I've heard it's had really negative reviews so I'm not sure.

I had really high expectations but it didn't quiet live up to them. Yeah sure it has its creepy moments and the tension and atmosphere were great but other than that, it was nothing to write home about. I also found it bland in some parts. Vacancy and You're Next did it much better imo.

One thing I will give the film praise for is the line, "Because you were home" - one of the most chilling lines uttered in horror cinema.

[Vanessa]

I'm going to see Rings tomorrow. Can't wait! Love horror movies! :amazed:

[Jason.]

It has 5% on Rotten Tomatoes :worry:

I mean bad reviews don't really influence whether I watch a film or not but I'm surprised by how low it is. I'll probably just wait until it's out online as I'm usually picky with what I watch at the cinema.

[Babayaro.]

I wasn't totally blown away by The Strangers either, and had heard so many good things about it, but ultimately, it was pretty crap. I'd be willing to watch it again though, and see if my opinion changes.

Pretty much. Everyone I know who'd seen it was going on about how it's one of the scariest films ever made (lightweights), but outside a few eerie moments here and there, it didn't really grip me nor have me on the edge of my seat. I didn't like the ending either.

I'll probably give it a watch again in October.

I'm a fan of the 2009 one tbh and it's getting close to 10 years since then so I was ready for another.

[Amy Jade]

The F13th reboot will be looked at again when the game comes out I think, if the games does well of course.

It's annoying they've shelved it because of Rings not doing so well, they're completely different.

I'm really looking forward to the game :flutter: i wish it would hurry up.

It's been sent to Sony and Microsoft for testing so I hope they stick with Early 2017. Did you play beta?

I loved it, it was such a fun game and it genuinenly had me on the edge of my seat. I was playing as the sporty girl and I was with a nerdy girl and we found the phone so we went outside to fix the fuse box and all I hear is Ki, k,i ki; ma, ma, and in the distance we see Jason run into a cabin but we get the phone working and call the cops and get joined by three people so there are five of us getting ready to leave this cabin and Jason shows up and we all start screaming and yelling as Jason breaks down the door and starts swinging his axe. If the other players are as into it it's honestly such an amazing game!

[JerseyWins]

I had no idea about a F13th game but I kinda like the sound of it.

I watched 'As above,so below' recently and it was quite good. Have you seen 'Descent'? That's really good and the sequal is out now too, although I haven't seen that yet.
Yeah, I've seen As Above So Below since making that post and it was a solid watch. I've also seen Descent a long time ago but don't remember liking it as much. I thought that one was alright. I might give the 2nd one a chance anyway though.

[Vanessa]

I'm going to see Rings tomorrow

Me too! Can't wait :dance:

[Amy Jade]

I had no idea about a F13th game but I kinda like the sound of it.

It's honestly great fun if they don't deviate from beta too much.

One thing I perticularly liked was the mic system, there are radios on the map you can use to communicate with other players but if you decide to talk and Jason is around he can hear you. Which is good for killing off annoying people who play with music on or the sound way too high on their TV because Jason will find them quick :fan:

[Vanessa]

The cinema is in Camden Town. I'm going to have a look at the market, then go to see the movie :hee:

I'm not normally bothered about reviews either... but they're so bad. And it's not just the low score, the actual write ups just make it sound terrible. I'm going to wait till it's online too.

http://www.blumhouse.com/2017/02/09/david-gordon-green-danny-mcbride-will-directwrite-the-new-halloween-movie-for-blumhouse/

Mess I thought John Carpenter would be directing. But I'm glad he's going to be involved in it either way. I also heard he'll be creating some new soundtrack for the film.

It'll be released on October 19th, 2018, fitting with the 40th anniversary of the original :flutter:

[Lostie!]

So what's the deal with this new Halloween? Is it supposed to be set in the same continuity as 1, 2 H20 and Resurrection or is it another reboot?

[Jake.]

I shall be watching Hush shortly!

[Jason.]

So what's the deal with this new Halloween? Is it supposed to be set in the same continuity as 1, 2 H20 and Resurrection or is it another reboot?

Apparently the new film will take place after the events of the first two original films. So it's basically going to be what Halloween 3 would've been if it had Michael Myers? I think


“You know, it’s not a remake. It’s actually, it’s gonna continue the story of Michael Myers in a really grounded way. And for our mythology, we’re focusing mainly in the first two movies and what that sets up and then where the story can go from there.

Green and I are definitely going to [do] a straight-up horror. Halloween has always been one of my favorite movies of all time. There’s a simplicity and an efficiency to that first one that I think allows the movies just to be scary as hell. And so Green and I, our approach is to get back to that.”

http://www.darkhorizons.com/new-halloween-set-after-the-second-one/


I think that's better than having another remake so I'm here for it.

[Cal.]

Yes at a direct sequel to the original 2 :love:

(The timeline is such a mess)

[Cal.]

Just realised that effectively makes it a prequel to H20 and Resurrection.

[Lostie!]

Just realised that effectively makes it a prequel to H20 and Resurrection.

Unless it's a brand new timeline from Halloween 2 onwards, sort of like how H20 erased the events of 4, 5 and 6 :laugh:

I can imagine the fans fuming if H20 was erased from the original timeline.

(I wish they'd just ignored the Thorn thing though and counted 4,5 and 6 and included the fact Laurie faked her death in a car crash and thought she was keeping Jamie safe by giving her up but then when she heard Michael got Jamie anyway she thought she might as well keep John close)

[Lostie!]

Yeah I'd be here for it being a prequel to H20 but ignoring Resurrection tbh :laugh:

I read that they originally intended to have a scene that referenced Jamie but decided to cut it and just have it act as a continuation of the second film.

[Jason.]

Just realised that effectively makes it a prequel to H20 and Resurrection.

[Jake.]

Have you seen Funny Games? I'm keen on seeing as it as I've heard good things and it looks really good. It's home-invasion and there's both the Austrian original and American remake (by the same director of the original).

I actually don't enjoy Martyrs tbh, It's a hard watch imo - but I did appreciate the intent and the acting was fantastic. The remake is awful, I can't think of a worse one in recent memory.

I have seen Funny Games and I love home invasion so it was right up my street but I ended up kind of hating it, one scene in perticular ruined it for me.

An obscure home invasion film set in the UK I quite liked is Cherry Tree Lane. Nothing amazing but pretty realistic imo

I watched it a couple of months ago, and I really enjoyed it. I found it very tense pretty much the whole way through, but I would say that it might not be everyone's cup of tea. Well worth the watch though!
