Try it, you might like it.Njet
You'll have to sell it better than that.Try it, you might like it.
Nice visuals, nice music, quite slow, there's a bit of paranormal nonsense around the middle but overall quite poetic and Del Toro-esque.You'll have to sell it better than that.
I dont get the praise tbh.I think it's a marmite film. I personally think it's one of the best horror films of the modern era.
I want my cake!Going to watch the 1982 classic Creepshow tonight, always loved that movie. The sequel is decent as well.
I watched the Invitation the other night and found it far superior in ever way.I think it's a marmite film. I personally think it's one of the best horror films of the modern era.
Yeah, you are hugely overrating that movie.I watched the Invitation the other night and found it far superior in ever way.
Obviously, the twist was obvious from the very start but it was still gripping.
Will give it a go and get back to you.Yeah, you are hugely overrating that movie.
But if you do love a "talker" and a movie with heavy dialogue then I have a suggestion for you, it is not a horror movie, more a mystery movie, and not one single person which I've recommended this movie to hasn't absolutely loved it:

http://411mania.com/movies/massacre-on-aisle-12-review/The B-movie horror comedy is one of the hardest genre exercises to pull off. More than any other kind of genre flick, the B-movie horror comedy must fire on all cylinders for the entirety of its runtime. The B-movie horror comedy cannot slow down or slack off for one second. If one joke misses, if one moment of suspense or gore doesn’t hit quite right, the entire movie can be instantly derailed. Massacre on Aisle 12, directed by Jim Klock and William Mark McCullough, is one of the few recent B-movie horror comedies that manages to succeed on every level. There isn’t a wasted moment, an unfunny joke, or bit of horror movie hooey that doesn’t rock. In short, it is B-movie horror comedy perfection.
Just seen this on my d/l site, have to be honest I dont normally go for Comic Horror, but will give it a go.Going to watch "Massacre on aisle 12" tonight. It is a horror comedy b-flick type of thing that has gotten some very favourable genre reviews:

@pauldyson1uk , @Dirty Schwein , this might be a good one for you guys as well.

An exploitation film is a film which attempts to succeed financially by exploiting current trends, niche genres, or lurid content.Seems like a good thread to ask this question.
I'm a bit confused as to what an exploitation film is?
I know it can be an extreme horror film but also a film like reefer madness which seem like 2 very different films.
Thanks, that makes it a bit clearer. How would reefer madness fit into that definition?An exploitation film is a film which attempts to succeed financially by exploiting current trends, niche genres, or lurid content.
Exploitation films are generally low-quality "B movies".[1] Even so, they sometimes attract critical attention and **** followings.
Genre examples: Slasher films, zombie films, Blaxsploitation, Nunsploitation
Well by the standards of 30s/40s America films about premarital sex & people going 'crazy' on recreational drugs would fit in under the banner of 'lurid' i suppose.Thanks, that makes it a bit clearer. How would reefer madness fit into that definition?
Which ones are these?What's with the amount of arthouse-esque horror movies coming out lately?
Green Room and The Witch come to my mind. I am sure there are more.Which ones are these?
Green Room didn't seem all that art house to me really : /Green Room and The Witch come to my mind. I am sure there are more.
Tried watching that film a year ago and found the acting to be awful. Something about the way the characters spoke was really annoying, can't actually remember what it specifically was.Yeah, you are hugely overrating that movie.

I loved the way the dialogue was set up. You genuinely got the feel that it was just a bunch of intellectuals trying to make sense of something totally unbelievable.Tried watching that film a year ago and found the acting to be awful.

It was an interesting story but the acting was utterly crapWill probably give it another go at some point. Didn't help that I was watching it with my housemates upon my suggestion after hearing it was good on reddit.
Yeah it didn't seem believable in the slightest to me.It was an interesting story but the acting was utterly crap
Or maybe it was the dialogue ...
As good a story as it was, it felt like a straight to tv movie in terms of quality.
Im not sure believable was what they were aiming for ... but if it was a film about people sitting around talking about something trivialYeah it didn't seem believable in the slightest to me.
Looks really good. Sort of Thing, 80s Carpenter, Lovecraft vibe.Anyone seen The Void by director Jeremy Gillespie, got decent reviews on IMDB?
The trailer looks great, but I've seen comments that it's pretty bad from people that have seen it.Anyone seen The Void by director Jeremy Gillespie, got decent reviews on IMDB?
Got three classic options for tonight:
Demons (1985)
"A group of people are trapped in a large movie theater in West Berlin that is infected by ravenous demons who proceed to kill and posses the humans one-by-one, thereby multiplying their numbers."
The Beyond (1981)
"A young woman inherits an old hotel in Louisiana where, following a series of supernatural "accidents", she learns that the building was built over one of the entrances to Hell."
Zombie Flesh Eaters (1979)
"Strangers searching for a young woman's missing father arrive at a tropical island where a doctor desperately searches for the cause and cure of a recent epidemic of the undead."
Love all the classics by the old school Italian directors like Fulci, Bava and Argento.
Yeah, that scene is some of the greatest ever caught on film. Seen a fair few zombie movies lately though so I reckon I might watch "The Beyond" since that is the one I am struggling the most to remember bits and pieces from.Legendary shark vs zombie fight is the one to go for, all 3 are worth your while.
You can't go wrong with any of those mate.Got three classic options for tonight:

100% agreedI watched The autopsy of Jane Doe last night and I highly recommend it.
The last third probably stops it being an instant classic, but it was still absolutely great and very creepy in places.
