Horror Talk / The Midnight Meat Train (2008)
November 01, 2018, 04:55:12 AM
I think that the gore in the film is probably the biggest point that'd draw audience members in. It's a solid story, both interesting and, at times, suspenseful, and many of the main performances were pretty good. It was occasionally a bit too CGI-heavy at times, but other than that, I think this is a pretty solid adaptation of a Clive Barker story.

What are your thoughts on this flick?

It's clearly horror and Shadow's clearly wrong about everything.  [*no*]

Shame you didn't care for the film. Now I know not to recommend quality films to you.  [*laugh*]

Quote from: Jigsaw on September 19, 2018, 11:00:47 AMNot that I'm complaining too much - at the very least, I'm saving up money little by little, so maybe this time next year, I might almost have $3,500 to my name.  [*hibaby*] [*laugh*]
Maybe you'd be making more if you were selling the weed instead of smoking it all. [*browwink*]

I'm not at all the type to try that route. I live in a state where it's still illegal, so I'm just trying to play it as safe as possible. Trying to do anything more would be a recipe for disaster.  [*uhoh*]

Horror Talk / Don't Deliver Us from Evil (1971)
October 19, 2018, 05:35:52 PM
Despite some great performances from the two main actresses and a really solid ending, this slow-burn was just a bit too aimless for me to truly care for. While it might be a more effective film should you be religious, this French movie just wasn't something I'd go out of my way to see again.

What are your thoughts on this 70's French flick?

Horror Talk / Demon Warrior (1988)
October 17, 2018, 09:45:27 AM
This cheesy demonic slasher might carry with it some charm, but there's far too high a drama:horror ratio. The kills were okay, but a bit uninspired. The ending, though, was cheese galore. Still, this isn't really a film that I'd go out of my way to see again.

What did you think about this late 80's horror flick?

Other Movies / 2019: After the Fall of New York (1983)
October 17, 2018, 09:36:09 AM
Want a fun Italian romp, complete with ass-kicking dwarfs, cyborgs, damn good gore, and action scenes galore? Look no further - this movie delivers. A very solid movie, I can't imagine any horror fan watching this and being disappointed.

Have you seen this fun Italian flick?

Horror Talk / Stickman (2017)
October 14, 2018, 11:58:16 AM
While not dripping in creativity, and with some obvious flaws, Stickman still stands out as one of SyFy's better films. I think if you're the more forgiving type, you could get some enjoyment out of this. I'd just recommend not going in with expectations too high.

Horror Talk / Encounter with the Unknown (1972)
October 14, 2018, 12:35:56 AM
Encounter with the Unknown is a low budget anthology with no gore, jump scares, or nudity. A family friendly, yet fun film, this movie can be a bit of a treat if you like the low-key vibe of 70's horror. Not sure if I'm alone in this, but I think this regional film was one worth watching.

Horror Talk / Don't Go in the Woods (2010)
October 09, 2018, 06:57:06 AM
I doubt that this film would appeal to most horror fans, due to the fact it's more a musical than a horror film. Which I thought was interesting, despite it not being done particularly well. And that plot twist was ridiculously obvious. Still, I think Don't Go in the Woods has some charm, and while I might be the only one who sees it, there you go.

Have you any thoughts on this horror-musical hybrid?

Horror Talk / Murder by the Clock (1931)
October 07, 2018, 12:07:02 AM
While I didn't love Murder by the Clock as much as I did when I last saw it, I still think it's a pretty overlooked classic, undeservingly so. There's a fun story, pretty good gothic atmosphere, and solid performances throughout. As a fan of 30's horror, you have a lot to look forward in this movie, despite it not necessarily being a film that will blow you away.

What are your thoughts on this classic?

Horror Talk / Re: Friday The 13th (1980)

Classic movie, easy 8/10. Honestly, when talking about the Friday the 13th series, you can't really go wrong with 1-5. Great film, and enjoyed seeing it once again.

Other Movies / King of the Wild (1931)
October 03, 2018, 12:30:20 PM
This serial, like many serials, often feels as though it's dragging and dragging, and the multiple cliff-hangers, which are so easily dispatched with, got somewhat old quick. No doubt there was some fun to be had here, and there were some entertaining sequences, but given the length of this adventure/action serial, it's not something I'd go out of my way to recommend (Boris Karloff would be the best selling point, I'd wager).

Have you set eyes upon this serial?

Horror Talk / The Attic (2007)
October 02, 2018, 11:28:21 PM
The Attic has a very obvious straight-to-video feel, and leans more on superficial jump scares than it does outright horror (there was a solid throat-slitting, at the very least). Most of the enjoyment comes from Moss's (of The West Wing fame) performance, and the story itself is somewhat interesting.

Have you any thoughts on this lower-budget film?

Horror Talk / Delirium (2018)
September 30, 2018, 07:51:55 AM
Watched this as a recommendation, and overall, I thought it made a decent watch. Quality performances and suspense throughout, the main problem with Delirium being that the ending didn't hold the punch I was looking forward to. By all means a movie that's still worth a look, for me, it ended up being just above average.

What are your thoughts on this newer horror film?

Love how you blame the filthy French for your dislike of the film. Quality entertainment.  [*laugh*]
