I love these types of movies. Almost all in one location, great acting, engaging story.
what a way to end a WrestleMania. I'm sure most are just deflated now. I'm not tired of The Bloodline but seeing Cody win would have made it perfect.
Just feels like Vince is back.
So not hyped for Raw now. meh.
if you got a choice between carrying my giant dead ass or being filthy rich.. please..by all means..take the fucking money bro
It's all fun and games until you realize this is trash
Very Evil Dead-ish but with a "let's play an evil game" twist. Not many games were shown and the ones we got were the most common basic games. It's a good looking movie with known actors but it's so generic, forgettable, unoriginal and filled with horror clichés. Calling this camp would be an insult to camp, it's just bad. Asa Butterfield is overacting so much it's laughable. The characters are introduced into the movie so fast and briefly that I couldn't remember who was in the movie at times. Lame kills. Flat third act. At least it's only 76 minutes.
As expected, a quality card that serves as a good intro to WrestleMania later this evening!
Most of the wins were predictable, but predictable in a good way. Exciting to see what the new champions bring to NXT and I’m even more excited to see Bron Breakker be Bobby Lashley’s surprise opponent tonight/tomorrow.
Best Match: Waller vs Gargano
Rating: 3.5/5 - 8/10 - Would Recommend
Enough of the Bloodline crap. I heard Roman is even going to take another break. Like he did after he took on Brock last year.
So no world title matches for the next 2 or 3 ppvs. So yeah Cody really should have won. The first night was much better.
We can send this single creature to frontline, and win any war, even nuclear war maybe lol
An insane and non-stop violent ride. That may or may not leave you wanting more. It depends on how many more people you want to see brutally killed in the next one, Halloween Ends.
This one I think even manages to out do Rob Zombie with the kill count. I was frustrated by the very end that someone would be dumb enough to go back in his house.
Still, this was one the best of the Halloween movies despite a somewhat weak ending. That makes it look like Laurie didn’t teach Karen better than that.
It was also disappointing how stupid Tommy Doyle was. He acts like a Michael Myers expert. Yet, he plans on taking him out with a baseball bat.
The people are so stupid in this film it's amazing, 10/10 for realism
Story: what story? It's art!
Characters: Nope. Let's focus on the walls instead.
Not scary in the slightest the only scares were jumpscares with loud music. I didn't care what happened to the two pairs of legs. If you're going to do a movie about a child's point of view put the camera on their forehead, not on the floor. The walls and ceilings got wayyy too much screen time. Painfully boring!
What starts out as a standard horror film soon turns into a plain dumb, unbearable and often incomprehensible hot mess that tries too hard to shock and forgets to entertain. Genuinely surprised seeing its average rating on Letterboxd as this garbage should have never been made and is undeserving of such high ratings. Yikes.
This was actually the worst movie I've ever seen.
Who keeps casting Moisés Arias in these thug/bully roles, it's like something from scary movie, he is like 5ft tall lol
Macabre to the core, what starts as a jovial evening with past friends quickly becomes a bleak yet almost too relevant look at the world in catastrophe. Not what I expected, and really enjoyed the slow reveal of what was truly happening. Some of the messages here will probably be interpreted differently now after everything that has happened in the real world, but as a dark drama comedy, this is a hit.
I don't know what's going on with the other comments, I thought it was great!
Well, I liked this movie. It did well creating a claustrophobic atmosphere, and creepy environment. Story was OK too, and although the Blair Witch-style camera work may not appeal to all, it does add to the authenticity.
Ok we get it, evil dies tonight. I had so much fun watching this. Fast paced with edge of the seat suspense, killer soundtrack, absolutely brutal and creative kills, this film knows exactly what it is. Michael Myers is back even more monstrous with his burnt mask and it feels like he's actually the star in this one, which I really love. This film picks up from H18 and also expands the story of the original in very interesting way with some cool callbacks to characters from both the original and H18. If you’re not a fan of slashers, you probably won’t like this. For me it's very entertaining and overall a great slasher film that delivers exactly what the title says.
3 Thoughts After Watching ‘Skinamarink’:
Just, no. I went in with an open mind. But no. This was way too random for me. I need some semblance of a story, not a string-out of creepy visuals and sounds. If I hadn’t read the synopsis, I would’ve been even more lost than I already was. The toy phone scene is a perfect example of something eerie that existed for no particular reason other than to be eerie. No.
The interactions and reactions were not realistic enough. I understand this film was more of a mood than a story. More of a dream than reality. But there were too many characters talking to other characters without a proper response, if that makes sense. And no child would be wandering that house alone.
There is something here, somewhere. An original idea that may inspire future horror films. The familiar glow and hum of a TV that we wake up to from nightmares. That momentary feeling of helplessness. It was all supremely atmospheric, for sure. But there was zero payoff.
A stylish psychological slasher about friendship and bullying. A great addition to the "is she crazy or not?" genre. Lots of awkward and uncomfortable moments. Loved the music choices and the neon lights. The gore and the kills were all satisfying and well crafted. The pacing was perfect for me I was never bored. Great ending that left me wanting more. Aisha Dee was so good in the role I can't wait to see her in other stuff!
Straightforward scary movie set in a very creative environment. As some real tense moments and the underwater works well but also use to many vulgar horror cliché making it an average movie
Killer Terminator robot Santa slasher mayhem! Nice retro style, neon lights everywhere and a whole bunch of Christmas visuals. It's very violent but they don't show enough of the kills and gore. F-bomb galore and the comedy is vulgar and annoying. I wish the robot looked more robot-like for the first three quarters of the movie. The third act was on another level the colors, the practical effects, the chaos it was an absolute blast and one of the coolest robot sequences i've seen.
While i'm definitely sick of anything Covid related and seeing masks, I think the pandemic elements were cleverly integrated. For most of the movie I was eye rolling at the Covid stuff but by the end of the movie I kinda dug it. It doesn't make it original by any means, it's very much a cliché by the book slasher... and it was a good one at that! Very thrilling, action-y and the fight scene choreography was amazing. Characters put up a real good fight and are hard to take down (excluding one). The kills were all very satisfying and brutal. House looks beautiful, nice camerawork, decent score and acting. Although it gets very repetitive with the cat and mouse chase and the open doors made me cringe a lot. The snake story was by far the most sick thing in the movie!
i think i prefer more fast pace movies, but loved the under the bed scene! definitely a really uniquely designed film
VHS coverage of walls and ceilings
A hilarious yet suspenseful dark comedy backed by strong performances by both leads. It's an extremely slow and dialogue driven burn, definitely not what I was expecting at all, but has plenty of laugh out loud moments. It also features a limited cast and the whole thing takes place mostly in one big old dark house, however thanks to the great performances and the chemistry between characters, the film is never boring. The majority of it plays like an awkward dark comedy before turning up the tension towards the second half. Justin Long as lead character pull it off masterfully. I really mean it when I say this thing is really slow and dialogue-driven, surely not for everyone, but for me it was a genuine thrill ride.
The fusion of part-time workers and killers is quirky but reasonable. Alley battles and fighting scenes are very impressive.
At last, akari maji kawaiii
Best. Opening. Ever.
Still holds up as the best in the franchise and a staple classic of the slasher genre that inspired so many to continue doing horror past the 90s. Everytime I watch it it gets better and knowing the twist(s) in advance (and the killers in the sequels) elevates it. What Scream does best is making everyone a suspect at some point and everytime you're convinced who the killer is, well you're wrong! I love the approach of having a humanized killer instead of an untouchable wall like Michael Myers, Ghostface can be pushed around and overpowered which adds unpredictability and realism. Well-cast attaching characters, alluring 90s aesthetics (clothes, hair, music... and the phones!!), bloody epic kills, great dialogue, filled with movie references and soo meta. Third act is wild, so many twists it just keeps throwing stuff at you.
Shoutout to Fred the janitor dressed like Freddy Kruger.
"Oh, you wanna play psycho killer? Can I be the helpless victim? Please don't kill me Mr. Ghostface, I want to be in the sequel."
"Movies don't create psychos! Movies make psychos more creative!"
Was having a bad night mentally and this was some good bullshit to distract me.
I guess I was expecting a worthy successor to 47 Ronin. This was pretty disappointing. It had some moving moments and decent action but the beginning, especially the dialogue was pretty awful. Some of the tie-ins in the climax were well thought out- but overall the movie was just poorly executed.
