Default A Quiet Place


It's gotten a rave reception so far and it's out next week. I think I might go see it tbh.

Saw it yesterday in a secret screening and it's brilliant. Best horror of 2018 and I can't see it being beaten unless Hereditary or Halloween are stunning.

Emily Blunt should get an oscar nod to be honest.

I genuinely thought you made a safe space thread, and I was excited for the ironic drama in all honesty.

Oscars snub Horror Films.

I haven't seen the Film though tbf so I don't know if they'll be right to do that or not.

Also, wouldn’t really call it a horror, much more of a thriller

I'll consider it tbh


I was going to see Alien: Covenant on my own but I'm glad I didn't as it was pretty crap when I watched it at home.

Nah, it's just most horror films simply aren't that good. The genre's just had a bit of a renaissance in recent years since they've decided to do put effort into quite a few of them when before most horrors were thrown together because they are nearly always profitable whether they are good or not.

Get Out, IT and the Babadook have done a lot to revitalise the genre beyond the 'throw a bunch of pretty faces in front of the camera and throw gore at them' approach.

Those drama films get nominated because they are well made, well crafted pieces of cinema for the most part. Saw Part 53 simply doesn't cut it.

I don’t think I’d find it enjoyable haha. I’d much rather wait four months and find a dodgy hyperlink. (I’m not a huge cinema guy anyway, three times a year at most).
