Essential The Official Coli Horror Film Thread: Discussion, Recommendations And Murder.

[FlyRy]

I’m glad you had a good time with Red Rooms, and I had a feeling you would.

One of the more satisfying blind watches of the year off the way it was able to bend my mind in a bunch of directions. Felt like Fincher with how cold it’s shot, but broodily paces itself like something you’d see from Oz Perkins. I owe @FlyRy some rep for that recommendation.

Spoiler

Story comes across pertinent to me today with the way some folks can obsess over true crime, and to the point where they make it their living in the day-to-day. Kelly Anne is such a complex character though. It’s cool that I still can’t pin down her motivations with exact confidence by the end of it. That can be a turn-off to some folks, but I’m fukking with it here.

Red rooms hits way harder after Luigi in a sense.

I did peep that one before it had a single review.

Went to the horror store today


Next objective is to get The complete series of Tales from The Crypt. Amazon prices pretty cheap.

I came up on the set for $20 used. Some discs are scratched, but the worst ones played.

There’s a local horror store in your area? That’s nice.

Finally Back from my Mexico trip
jumped into my 80's watch again


Creepozoids (1987)


low Budget schlock classic, worth a watch if you just want to waste some time
must have had like a $10 budget for sets because they stayed going back to the same damn tunnel 40% of the movie
Even had a porn star stimi, Ashlyn Gere

it got remade by Fred Olen Ray in the 90's , it was called Hybrid, i think

thinking about watching
the subspecies series
the howling series
or
rewatching the Hellraiser series next

 

[T.H.E.GOD]

Heretic was a good ass film to me. Went into it blind not even knowing anything about it but soon as they showed up to ol boys house within the first ten minutes, I couldn’t stop watching. I had no complaints at all….

I was feeling in the Christmas spirit so I watched these movies last week.

Jack Frost(1997)

This is a favorite of mine. Still find it fun. Good mix of characters that play it straight. Reminds me of like Bride of Chucky or Nightmare on Elm Street 4. Jack Frost definitely stole the idea from Child's Play.

Jack Frost 2: Revenge of the Mutant Killer Snowman(2000)

I liked this the first time I watched it. Wasn't too into it this time. Too many goofy characters and the lower budget shows. The first movie was already low budget.

Silent NIght Deadly Night(1984)

I was surprised how serious this movie took itself. There were still laughs. It kinda feels like Don't Go Into the House to me. Was pretty good. Whoever got him that job knowing his history is the real villain in the movie.

Silent Night Deadly Night Part 2(1987)

This movie would be so much better if they didn't recap the first movie so much. The movie is in so bad it's good territory, but watching it right after the first takes it down a few notches for me. Ricky's delivery of his lines is hilarious to me.

Silent Night Deadly Night 3(1989)

I didn't like this one. Maybe I didn't pay attention or I wasn't paying attention because I didn't like it. The crazy brain effect on Bill Mosley's head with a Santa hat on top made me laugh.

Silent Night, Deadly Night 4: Initiation(1990)

Like Return of the Living Dead 3, Brian Yuzna made another sequel in a franchise that had nothing to do with the previous movies. This might make fans angry but it give you something new. ROTLD2 was much like the 1st one but with different characters, even though some were played by the same actors. This movie defiantly took the (Holiday) Season of the Witch(es) approach.

The effects by Screaming Mad George were great. There's a lot of stuff that'd you'd see in his earlier effects from Nightmare on Elm Street 4, and Society.

I plan to watch more Brian Yuzna and Stuart Gordon movies.

Silent Night, Deadly Night 5: The Toy Maker(1991)

This movie took it back to the Christmas theme. Not good but not bad either....was alright. The movie was like a straight to video Full Moon movie. I might have seen this before, I'm not sure. The villain looked familiar to me.

There really should have been a Jack Frost and Gingerdead Man crossover...it seems like a perfect fit.

Jack Frost 1 and Gingerdead Man 1 are both classics for me.


Last year, I did 12 days of Christmas horror movies. I was too busy to do the same this year, but it was a lot of fun. I've got my list of "must-watch for Christmas" horrors...Rare Exports, Day of the Beast, Gremlins, and one of the Black Christmas movies.

Ooh thank you. I need to watch Gingerdead man. Thanks for the other movies. I think I'm going to continue the Christmas horror watch through. I think in January I'm going to watch classic movies.

I'm talking about before 1970, maybe 1980, movies. I haven't watched many and seems like the right thing to do.

The vintage classics are a lot of fun. I know Tubi has a surprisingly good collection from when I went on a Hammer House Horror Anthology run. I need to watch some of those throwbacks too, I’ve seen so few from the 70’s and found some gems (let’s scare Jessica to death is my jam)

This tweet from the director of New Religion just put me on to the fact that there was a super in-depth battle royale documentary



People make it sound like this is completely unattainable through stream and only found in dvd or vhs format (I doubt translated).

But man, do I wish I could watch it.

Black Christmas at the Alamo tonight. Pre-show better come through with the fukkery.
