RIP Wes Craven

I hate he lived to see them destroy Freddy with that bullshyt remake

Yep. Classic fukking scenes.

Honestly...when it comes to a similar effect...that bedroom ceiling scene >>> Inception hallway scene imo. Inception maybe more complicated...but far less tenseful.

The bed scene is just surreal as hell, and made even more bizarre by the fact that it's Johnny Depp....

Lol surreal as fukk. And I also love Inception, it had similar concepts (dream vs reality) but minus the horror.

classic movie... saw this comment on youtube, i wonder if there is any truth to this.

"This movie has Jewish themes, " hear no evil, see no evil," represents the Law of Moshes, the sons rept. the kings of Yisrael bound by the law & kept under the stairs in Hell. The black kid rep. the deliverer yashua who frees the sons from the penalty of the law. He's 13 which is he's bar mitsvah etc."

RIP

One my GOAT movie theater experiences was watching Scream 2 on a saturday night back when I was in high school the whole theater was hyped off that shyt.

I remember my older brother letting me and my sis watch Serpent In The Rainbow and the end and the especially the scenes where the hand comes out of the ground... had me shook for weeks after seeing it.

Vampire In Brooklyn is my underrated flick of his... It's far from a great flick but I just always end up watching it when It's on.

 

[Doomsday]

People Under The Stairs is my favorite movie from him. Classic.

Not like he hadn't presided over some of it himself though - some of those 80s/90s sequels were dodgy to say the least, but he is in the eternal horror pantheon for Nightmare 1 and 3 and for managing to make Freddy scary again in New Nightmare.

HOG THE PRIME TIME, bytch.

I gotta watch "People Under The Stairs" again, ditto for "Serpent & the Rainbow"....

When "Serpent" came out I was young & didnt get it, but got it later.... Time to revisit my past... I buy box sets almost every week.. Gotta support a great...

Scream is my favorite Wes Craven flick. The opening scene is arguably one of the best opening horror scenes in cinema history

 

[feelosofer]

The god father of horror, he influenced 2 generations of horror movie film buffs. Nightmare on Elm St might still the GOAT horror film to me but People Under the Stairs was hella underrated. I also loved how he put the genre on its head in scream (but I despise the MTV show though )

 

[Originalman]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuk not my boy Wes.

Rip to my boy.
