I have not. If you are recommending it, I'd be happy to check it out. Right now I've got these on the docket:

Nightmare on Elm Street runthrough (I've only ever really seen the first 2)
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Phantasm runthrough (I've only seen the first one)

All the horror people must see Calvaire, the French equivalent of TCM/Deliverance.

Yeah, I definitely recommend it, it's probably my favorite body-horror comedy. :laughing:

Have fun with the Nightmare on Elm Street movies, they're cheesy as hell but they have their moments. Three is my personal favorite.

I've been on a horror kick myself. Just rewatched The Fog (one of the few John Carpenter films that has taken me a little while to appreciate), Reanimator, Bride of Reanimator, 28 Weeks Later (this with 28 Days Later make up an excellent back to back watch - there are things 28 Days Later does better and things it lacks and vice versa), and the entire Friday the 13th series. I had only ever watched the first 2 and then Jason Takes Manhattan, so I had no idea what to expect for the other ones. Those movies go up and down, but every one of them was a great "I'm gonna turn my brain off for 90 minutes" movie. Personal favorites are part 3, part 4, and part 7.

I hate that whack ass cast. Like it almost bothers seeing that one queer's face

this is 1000% what I'm after Beyond the Black Rainbow (2010) - IMDb

Eyes of My Mother

Let me start this off by saying what the **** man. That **** was weird.

This movie deserves a mention in the DSM because if it ever happened in real life, I would just point at this movie and say that Nicolas Pisce told you so. Eyes of My Mother draws you in with some gorgeous black and white scene setting before bashing your head in with some disturbing and bizarre twists and turns.

The movie focuses on a descent into madness. If I were you, I would go into it blind plotwise because the way the film transpired was totally conflicting with what I was expecting to happen (for better or worse, mostly the former). The stark imagery really makes the more visceral parts more effective, which makes this movie really hard to watch. A lot of it made me feel disturbed and gross. It really is a fascinating character study that could have been fleshed out a little better, but was still excellent on its own.

This was such a great horror film that I'm not sure if I ever want to watch it again. 5/5.

you haven't let me down yet so i'll be checking that out at some point today

Opening night motherfuckers. Insanely solid shoot em' up. Any fan of John Woo or John Wick should appreciate this flick. Not to mention the director having directed incredibly great films in the past. 8/10. Support this film please.

Ah, already seen it many times Hustle and Shaolin Soccer are easily my two most nostalgic Chow films

Great fighting choreography, great comedy, great slapstick, great characters, great movie

I wish Beyond the Black Rainbow was longer even at almost 2 hours, or that more stuff happened. But not in a "nothing happened" kinda way, there was some cool stuff that I definitely wanted to continue. I almost feel like the pacing works against it. Like, it really sucks you in that you're bummed out when it's done. I was at least. Very enjoyable.
