Halloween Kills came out this month
I’m looking forward to watching it but my expectations are low. Can’t be as bad as Rob Zombie’s take on the series.
I wish that Netflix would stop producing trash horror movies, and they all seem to take themselves so seriously!
Smear some **** in a piece of paper, give it to them, say it’s a horror movie and they’ll definitely produce it.
Last Netflix one I watched was “There’s Someone inside your House”.
It was a 4/10 piece of **** that felt like it was written by a 15 year old girl.- did my research while writing this post, it was based on a novel written by a woman
Don’t mean to sound sexist (as if I care), but sometimes that **** is ****ing obvious.

Not a chance, that **** is brain dead as ****
He didn’t k ow how to explain that Micheal’s mean because people weren’t nice to him. Had to spend 52 minutes explaining it with exposition and the throw in a really stupid contrived rape scene as a cherry on top
“Let’s randomly rape this chick in Micheal’s cell while giving him ****”!!!
Dumb dumb dumb. -

Part 2 was one of the better sequels but a bit generic in the way it plays out. Epic finale though. 4 was pretty cool as well.
Rob Zombie’s one was a rotten **** stain. Every character was an annoying **** **** and the writing was the worst ever. -

I can easily explain everything terrible about it. The only good things being a few of Micheal’s kills.
Speaking of which, just watched Halloween Kills. Mixed bag of a movie but it definitely had the goriest kills of any Halloween movie. I enjoyed it
Another good thing about it is how stupid it makes Rob Zombie’s “Halloween Lore” look -

I will go then to see it. I hated the last Halloween reboot, but will persevere with this new one.
Zombie's
Halloween
was a misfire on all cylinders, yet I loved his sequel to it, which I think I may have previously mentioned. Can understand why others would hate it though.
Norman! What did you put in my tea? -

part2 blew it out of the water
Part 1 has some effective atmosphere and is spooky in parts, (
the day scenes were filmed in beginning of spring though and it shows which takes a little something away
), but 2 amped up the slasher vibe and still manages to be scary and is less laborious.

That Fear Street limited series that combines ghost story, demonic possession, and slasher genre is pretty sick horror don't you think? Whenever I feel like one kill scene desensitized me, later on in the episode the killer(s) chop up the victim with an axe in the chest repeatedly. Blood splattering upwards. It's brutal.

The second one was pretty fun!
The third tried way too hard to be deep and serious with its cheesy teen melodrama bullshit, really didn’t like it. Can’t even remember the first movie.
The kills are always good though!
Even that ****ty “there’s someone inside your house” movie had pretty good kills. -

Rewatched The Babadook again. It's just a damned good movie, horror or not.
Mentally, I put it in a category with other disturbing movies I watched during that period. All are well-made.
Personal Shopper–Kristen Stewart
Under the Skin–The beach scene
The Witch–Black Phillip is GOAT
Simon Killer–My man
A Ghost Story–For the song alone -

Once you know the twist in the Babadook, the movie is a let down. I have no idea why it has such a small cult of followers stemming from IMDb message boards. To my knowledge, the film wasn't a success in theaters.

I can't speak to its following but I find it exceptionally well done. It's smart, scary and the leads are compelling. I like the central metaphor and I believe the film deals with the subject matter creatively and convincely. It's a rare movie that has something to say. (I also think it nails the ending.)
Tastes vary, obviously, but I'd encourage you to rewatch the scene when they first read the book. The editing is masterly as the visions we get of the boogeyman are really the only ones we ever get and even then they slip from our sight before we know exactly what we're dealing with.
I'll be honest: I find it brilliant.
