Mr_Danger Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I really liked Sinister. It has a typically wobbly final act but I’ve come to the conclusion that that’s mostly a me issue as I seem to have the same complaint about almost any horror. It must be incredibly difficult to keep the suspense up when you finally do the reveal in these films. I think Insidious was probably the worst example of this but it’s first two thirds weren’t that great either.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheSurgeon Posted October 27, 2020 Author Share Posted October 27, 2020 (edited) So i saw Sinister at the cinema, wouldn't say it's the scariest movie ever made, but it was decent enough. I can see why the audience members tested for that 'experiment' had high heart beats, as it had at least 6 loud jump scares. Any fans of Blumhouse? We got The Craft Legacy and Freaky coming out soon, the latter of which looks interesting. Edited October 27, 2020 by TheSurgeon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperBacon Posted October 30, 2020 Share Posted October 30, 2020 Really interesting article here on the actors behind the iconic roles, which I thought some of you would find worthwhile. Sorry its Vice though. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awards Moderator Onyx2 Posted January 11, 2021 Awards Moderator Share Posted January 11, 2021 (edited) Universal are putting the classics on YouTube for free for a week starting Friday. https://www.nme.com/news/film/classic-universal-horror-movies-dracula-frankenstein-available-free-youtube-2849722 January 15, 2021 (8pm GMT) Dracula (1931) The Mummy (1932) January 16, 2021 (8pm GMT) Frankenstein (1931) Bride Of Frankenstein (1935) January 17, 2021 (8pm GMT) The Invisible Man (1933) The Wolf Man (1941) Abbott And Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948) I've only seen Abbott and Costello from that list so I'm hoping for a marathon.

Paid Members Chris B Posted January 11, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted January 11, 2021 Out of those, Frankenstein and Bride of Frankenstein are the real selling points. Don't get me wrong, the rest are really good, but those two are masterpieces. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Thunderplex Posted January 11, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted January 11, 2021 Watched The Children again last night with my Daughter who hadn’t seen It before.  Bloody hell it’s a good film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
courageous Posted January 11, 2021 Share Posted January 11, 2021 Can I do a shameless plug - in the summer of 2019, some of my mates went to Albania and produced the remake of Castle Freak along with Barbara Crampton (and if you squint very hard, you can see the back of my head in a couple of scenes) More of a reimagining, and to be honest it is slow to start with but the final half really ramps things up you can definately tell the director has a background in prosthetics & if you are a fan of gore then this is for you  Availible on Shudder now    Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members LaGoosh Posted February 8, 2021 Paid Members Share Posted February 8, 2021 I watched Saint Maud. After all the hype I was quite disappointed. Well made and all that, but it wasn't scary, creepy or particularly engaging. Definitely a good film in there somewhere but it was a bit meandering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The trailer looks great. Where did you watch it? I couldn't find it digitally and they only format I found was a region-free Blu-Ray that isn't available until March. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
