I recently finished Christopher Nolan’s debut, Following. It was the last Nolan I hadn’t watched, so I’ve completed his (current) filmography. I wondered how many other directors’ filmographies I’ve finished (5 movie min, only films considered). I could only find two others, Tarantino and Rian Johnson. I’m close on several others but I was surprised how few I had, considering I’ve watched somewhere around 2000 movies. Do any of you know how many director filmographies you have completed?

Watched this when I was 8 years old for the first time. Think it was a rental from blockbuster or something shortly after releasing. But after watching, I was afraid of the dark until my late teens lol no joke. Scary stuff and will be regarded in my opinion as one of the scariest movies I have ever seen

This is a classic FOR A REASON! I've seen many movies with practical effects, but nothing comes close to this. The acting, score, and storyline are fantastic as well. My only complaint is that I wanted more!!!

After reading Shari Franke’s book, I am eager to watch this documentary! It comes out next weekend on Hulu!

What are your thoughts on the rumored to be planned White Chicks 2? I just think they're going to CG everything. 😄😄😄😄 I'm hoping for some In Living Color type material. That pushes the boundaries yet is tasteful and timely.

So I'm hearing that the TTRPG card game, Magic: The Gathering is getting some screen adaptations. It's starting with a movie, then a show. It sounds like they're planning a whole MTG cinematic universe. Thoughts?

The next Shrek movie has finally had its cast announced. The original movie's main heroic cast returns, along with Zendaya as Shrek and Fiona's daughter. Antonio Banderas is notably absent from the cast list, for now, though he's not confirmed to be absent from the film. The announcement trailer shows the characters' new designs, as they've been moved from DreamWorks to Illumination, and they're... different. https://youtu.be/KbiwL74KyJQ?si=r5gVTWyHG1zOYgnW

The Human Centipede is a very gross concept of a movie. The acting is not the best,but the movie makes up for it with its storyline. The practical effects are great and make you squirm. The idea of the centipede is disgusting as well as disturbing. If you are someone who does not like surgical horror, hen I recommend not seeing this movie. Besides the acting, my only complaint is that the main characters aren't the brightest. I would have liked to see them be less dizzy when it came to survival.

The teaser for Gareth Evans’s (director of the Raid films) new film finally dropped today. It has a great cast (Tom Hardy, Tim Olyphant and Forest Whitaker) and is coming to Netflix April 25th. Evans is such a great action filmmaker that I’m cautiously optimistic for this film, even though they shot it in 2021 and they have been doing reshoots and tinkering with it since then (which is usually a bad sign). https://www.indiewire.com/news/trailers/havoc-teaser-tom-hardy-1235099142/

Vampire Hunter D will be in some theaters for its 40th anniversary in April!!

As you may already know, Demon Slayer: Kimetsu no Yaiba's next arc following the Hashira Training Arc, The Infinity Castle Arc, is not receiving a television treatment. It is instead being adapted into a trilogy of movies. Other notable anime, like Haikyuu!!, Konosuba, Jujutsu Kaisen, and Sailor Moon: Crystal, have taken this same approach of adapting canon content into exclusively theatrical releases. How do you feel about this practice? What are the pros and cons?

Has anyone who was planning to watch Angel Beats! for our #otakuclub live discussion NOT had a chance to finish it?

I just started this show on Netflix, it’s hilarious. Im only on episode 12, but It’s about this Harvard professor teaching a high school AP bio class. And straight up telling them that he’s not teaching them anything. He wants to try to get his job back, so they straight up do random stuff every episode. If u want a good laugh every episode, this is it. So far 5/5

I'm always curious about this question. So ever since I was little, I have never liked Home Alone since I found it very mean spirited due to Kevin's horrible family. I don't like watching Christmas movies that can be very mean spirited since I want to watch the movies to be cheerful and happy for Christmas, not be depressed or angered by it. So it surprise me that not only do people love it but consider it a Christmas classic. So I must ask why everyone loves the movie despite how cruel it is?

I just spotted this at the store. It sounds really interesting. Has anybody seen it? Thoughts?

Does anyone else get really annoyed with Rory? I’m just mad that she does all this stupid stuff but gets away with it because Lorelei is afraid to parent her. Just making sure I’m not the only one.

Why is this show so good? Currently on episode 4,(waiting for dub) and I have to say the music choices and the animation is spectacular! The way the sky and city lights are depicted at night completely blew me away. If you haven't started this, go check it out!

I just finished this movie and wow, I was not expecting the topics it discussed. It really takes a deep dive into high school tropes and getting into the psychological details. So I want to ask: what impacts do you think this movie had? Why is it still so relevant today? How did you interpret the characters and their stories? Thank you—can’t wait to hear your takes on this movie! #classics #1980s #thebreakfastclub #school_life #tropes #drama #comedy #social_themes

If any of you want a documentary to watch for free this one is currently on PBS Youtube channel

SO GOOD! The comedy landed, the storyline was exciting, and the acting was superb. I was thoroughly entertained from beginning to end. I do hate that I knew what the plot was kind of about because of the advertising. This movie could have had an awesome twist had the advertising not given it away. Besides that, the movie as a whole is a fun ride! Definitely see it when you have the chance.

All im gonna say about this tubi movie is I was excited and wasted almost 2 hrs of my life it’s horrible .

For those who like reading and Studio Ghibli movies I made a book club on Fable if anyone is interested in joining! Right now we are starting the book Howl's moving Castle by Diana Wynne Jones, this club is a slower paced one so there is no pressure to race through the book. https://fable.sng.link/Ali7l/etuk?_dl=%2Fapp%2Fclubs%2F53a18696-e0f3-4b58-8ff8-52279eb76659&_fallback_redirect=https%3A%2F%2Ffable.co%2Fclub%2Fghibli-book-nook-with-georgie-193088255059&_smtype=3

So I'm just curious. I know opinions are split on the Harry Potter show. Many are wondering why it's happening at all. But would you be more interested in a show set in the Wizarding World, but not Harry Potter?

I am just now binging The Ultimatum season 3. Is anyone else sensing narcissistic behavior in Scotty? It is totally cringe. The abusive behavior is so noticeable.

Is it just me or does the community seem a little dead 💀 like I feel as though we can’t edit anything and the cover never changes I feel like something going wrong 😑

Can’t believe I’m about to watch Gladiator for the first time. This has to be the most iconic film I’ve never seen. I’m almost ashamed to admit this lol 25 years later

A movie that fans of comedy horror will love. Has decent gore, little bit of a love story, and entertaining as hell wanna-be hero main character. If you enjoy the likes of Evil Dead 2/AoD, I think you’ll find a lot of fun here.

I thought "Heretic" was very original. I personally loved how it makes not only the characters question their faith, but it makes the audience as well. The use of Monoply in this movie is done well, and provided a great visual for the concept that the antagonist is trying to get across. I also thought the acting was great and the storyline is thrilling!

Pros: - The acting from the whole cast was great! - The scenery/environment was beautifully done and met the mark for a Gothic film. The writing was beautiful. Even though it is a period piece, I understood what they were saying. Cons: The film wastes the casting of Bill S. Unlike Pennwise, his monster in this is covered by darkness, CGI, and an AWFUL mustache. Instead of feeling frightened by his appearance, I thought I was looking at Waluigi from Nintendo. - The pacing of this movie SLOW

The best parts of this movie are definitely when the protagonist is on the phone! The sounds send a shiver down your back. Besides this, I did think the pacing was slow but I am happy that I saw the Christmas horror cult classic.

New Wolfman movie was alright I would give it a 3/5 nothing more it was a sleeper I got bored cause there was action going on but nothing really scary about it .

Nosferatu I would give 2 1/2 stars because it didn’t look like the poster for one . They hyped it up making it seem scary it was too long for no reason and the only reason it was good was the main two actor and actress tbh .

To people who have seen this series, how much of it is Horror more than just a suspense/thriller? I love Shyamalan his stuff can be hit or miss but I don't do well with #horror dealing with spirits and possession lol but I love a good #psychological_thriller or #suspense I read he's being sued over this saying the story was stolen from a movie... Idk about all that but AppleTV imo spits out phenomenal series so I really wanna watch this, did y'all like it? Thanks

Just posted a new Instagram Reel review! My account is Horror1999_ video is my hot take on Nosferatu

I recently watched this documentary on Disney+. It’s so wholesome and heartwarming and I recommend it to everyone! I rate this a 10/10 for sure 👍

After the reunion last night, what did we think of Season 5?

What is your favorite reality tv show?

Are you looking forward to season 2 of Squid Game: Fireplace starting 12/26/24?
