I remember watching starry eyes way back in 2014 or whenever and enjoying it. There was a boom of indie horror between like 2012-16 that was awesome... what happened??

If you got about $150 you could have your very own version of Aylmer the brain eating parasite from Frank Henenlotter's BRAIN DAMAGE.

That movie is insane. I couldn't believe what the hell I was watching Friday
watching Black Christmas and its about over. Few thoughts:
The acting works
The story is at least somewhat interesting
Obviously I get the point
But, and this is what makes the movie fall flat, is its TOO on the nose for its own good. Bits of dialogue repeat themselves to make a point and there's no subtext, therefore making the movie itself less interesting. There's a way to say everything this movie is saying (and I have no issue with what its saying and I agree) without taking away from the enjoyment of the movie or the characters. the message gets in the way of that. It's hitting the same notes as Mrs. America on FX, but because Mrs America is about politics and the ERA and women of that era, it's just better written. Also, not for nothing, but the PG13 rating hurts this shyt because nothing truly horrific stood out to me. There's that one homage to the exorcist 3 that I thought was dope, but other than that, it feels too safe and too neutered, which is ironic given the subject matter.
I know Joe Bob caught flack for criticizing the movie for being more about the message and not about the movie, but he's right. This whole thing feels like a missed opportunity. Dawn of the Dead and Day of the Dead and Ginger Snaps have messages; a lot of horror movies do, but those messages never get in front of characters, story, tension, etc. And every scare that happens in the second half is telegraphed from 50 miles away

He dead though.
The bolded has a lot to do with the sloppy editing this movie has. It is so evident to anyone watching where cuts were made to make sure the movie got that PG-13 rating.
Yup. So many cuts that were so obvious and weren’t seamless in the least bit
Could have him make a cameo in a different role within the Stab franchiseHe dead though.
Dirty Mcdrawz
Your girl loves em....
The mom in Z is dumb as hell. 
But you know who is talking like this is not going to happen, as if Neve Campbell won’t be a factor. It’s not a Scream reboot without Neve.
That movie went right over my head. So many questionsThe mom in Z is dumb as hell.
This is random. Remy Ma and horror movies?? Interesting plot utilizing the Groundhog Day concept.
Remy Ma & Award-Winning Filmmaker Craig Singer Talk New Horror Film '6:45'
NEW YORK CITY, NY – After a lengthy hiatus following 2009’s Perkins’ 14, award-winning filmmaker Craig Singer is releasing his new horror film 6:45 this fall. A gripping psychological thriller that loosely follows the concept of Groundhog Day, the movie features an eclectic cast, including Hip Hop star Remy Ma.
“It was fun,” Remy says of her time on set. The State of the Culture co-host plays the role of Cassi (best friend of film’s lead) — a part she tells HipHopDX was rewritten just for her.
“The original script that I received was one way, and then the director rewrote it so that it was tailored for me,” she explains. “So, I felt kind of special.”
Written with longtime collaborator Robert Dean Klein, the film centers around a young couple in love who take a romantic weekend getaway to an island where things (naturally) go wrong. The lead, played by Michael Reed, wakes up each morning at 6:45 and relives the whole experience.
