The Silence of the Lambs

darkdetective 02-26-2016 10:47 AM

Just got back from seeing The Forest starring Natalie Dormer.

I really enjoyed it. Some weak jump scares but there are a couple of effective ones in there. It also has a pretty decent psychological aspect. Bit predictable especially if you watch a lot of Japanese horrors but it was good.

Also I have a huge crush on Natalie Dormer so I enjoyed that too! ::wink::

Krampus (2015)
"Twisted fairytale horseshit!" like one of the characters says.

-The story's weak.
-Sometimes the German's subtitled, sometimes it ain't, then the person speaks English.
-They got Krampus all wrong.

It ain't that hard to get it right.
You take the movie Sint, replace Saint Nicholas with Krampus,
change the location to a small snowy village and bam!
Some small changes and you got yourself a decent Krampus movie.

Now who's gonna fund my kickstarter? http://i233.photobucket.com/albums/e...n-emoticon.gif

The Witch

Overall, I liked it, but hated the ending. Eggers could have done a MUCH better job with the way it ended. Personally, I would have ended it with her walking into the woods.

8/10

Solid and entertaining western journey horror adventure film, with some pleasant low key character subtlety.

what did you think? Looks cool, but the trailer and plot review is hard to grasp.

The Witch (2015)

Ever since seeing the trailer a few months ago, I've been dying to see The Witch. It calls to mind recent arthouse horror movies like The Babadook and Goodnight Mommy, but The Witch is far scarier than those movies. It's a grim, perverse, and disturbing tale of religious paranoia among a crumbling family that will surely be remembered alongside the likes of Rosemary's Baby and The Omen. The Witch takes place in 17th century in Puritan-era New England. A family is excommunicated from their village and settles on the edge of a vast forest. Soon thereafter, their baby goes missing into the woods, and the family is torn apart by accusations of witchcraft, black magic and possession. From the first ten minutes, The Witch has a morose atmosphere and starts out with an incredibly disturbing scene. The initial shock is carried through the next few scenes which are dialog-heavy and slower, causing the dread to continue to the next horror. The terror never lets up and only amplifies as the plot progresses until the final 20 minutes are agonizing to watch. It's perversely scary. I could only vaguely tell you how the movie ended because I was watching through my fingers. The acting is fantastic from the entire cast, especially from the child actors. They're given heavy stuff to work with and pull it off with unsettling results. Along with amazing cinematography and an ominous score, it'll be difficult to find a better horror movie than The Witch this year. It'll leave you shaking.

Not a good movie. There are a couple of good looking shots and the main actress Bailey Noble was pretty decent but other than that it was a completely unnecessary and pointless remake.

It entirely misses the point of the violence in the original. They try to switch things up a little but I think they failed miserably.

Has anyone else seen it?
Does anybody like it?

I watched it., and completely agree with you. After watching the original, I couldn't forget it... maybe for a week or two.But this remake...ugh. They even tried to make something like a happy ending, but they failed even this. And, in my opinion, two main heroines in the original were much better, although I can't say that girls in the remake were bad.

I kinda like the series. They're not really good but there's just something about it. Too bad they only use Ted Levine's voice for the first movie.

You might like Monster Man.
It's a little bit similar.

Sisters (2015)
Meh-kinda ok.

The Hateful Eight (2015)
B+
Bit too boring for a film that long, the none-score music felt a bit off, and a few other things I can't put my finger on...

Looking For Eric (2009)
This wasn't that great but it really was a nice movie.
Probably less good if you're not familiar with English football culture and/or player Eric Cantona.

I've always been curious about this one. I'm encouraged by your rating, Deadbeat. How closely does the film follow the Bustamante story?

It only does by name and the murder. Shane Ryan puts his own twist to this story. It's seen through camera, like found footage with different effects of cinematography. Some parts were haunting.

The Other Side of the Door (2016)

I wasn't aware of the existence of this until about a week and a half ago, but I guess it helps watching a movie without any expectations or bias. Although it's not groundbreaking horror, The Other Side of the Door is an still efficient ghost story. The film follows a couple, Maria and Michael, who live in harmony in India until a car accident kills their son, Oliver. Desperate for closure, Maria learns of a ritual where she can speak to her son one last time. She travels to an ancient temple where a mysterious door acts as a portal between the world of the living and the dead. Her only warning is to not open the door, but, in typical horror movie fashion, Maria opens the door. Oliver's soul is brought back to the world of the living, but something else is trying to reclaim his soul. In terms of scares, The Other Side of the Door is inconsistent at best. There are a couple of genuinely scary scenes, but there are a few more that just cop out on a jump scare. One really great and scary thing about the movie is the demon trying to reclaim Oliver's soul. It's creepy as hell and is reminiscent of Sadako or Kayako. Another thing that salvages the film and makes it watchable is its great story. Maria's story of depression and desperation gives the plot an emotional edge while the Hindu themes and symbolism make it unique for an American film. The movie had a similar vibe to The Grudge in that it used another country's culture to create a disturbing atmosphere for its characters. The ending is actually great and pretty shocking, too. It's not the best "American goes to a foreign country and shit goes down" horror movie, but The Other Side of the Door is a decently scary ghost movie with a great story.

6/10

Decent western drama starring Kiefer Sutherland, Donald Sutherland, the bad guy from The Crow and the theater dude from Deadwood.
