I've made a list of my own movies I want to check off this year, would be cool to coordinate.
Cannibal Holocaust is gross. Can't believe I saw that shit in a theater. :snoopthe new eli Roth jawn looks like a skraight ripoff of CH. I'm sure he'll demonstrate his usual deft touch with subject matter when dealing with savage brown people

The movie poster is some dude that's straight up got a bone in a nose. This a Bug Bunny cartoon? :lolwhen you listen to what he has to say about "sjws" the project reads like breitbart fantasy
In case you didn't know he was aping Cannibal Holocaust with that movie, its title is the title of the movie they were making in Cannibal Holocaust (iirc).
Funny Games isnt really a horror movie imo.
Hellraiser is shit.
28. Hellraiser
Haven't really been able to pin down my thoughts on this one. I dislike it, that much I know, but it's hard for me to explain why that is.
I suppose principally it's because the most screen time is devoted to the "bad guys." Not the Cenobites (whether they're actually bad guys is up for interpretation, as they only do what they do after asking or are explicitly summoned.) I mean Julia and her skinless ex-lover Frank. Both of these people are repugnant - they kill without remorse, betray the trust of husband/brother Larry (before eventually killing him too), and 80% of the movie is focused on them. The "protagonist" is ostensibly the step-daughter/niece Kirsty, but she's barely a factor until the third act requires her.
The gore effects and makeup on the Cenobites are phenomenal, possibly some of the best I've seen in a horror film. However, it's all flash and no substance. There's no story or real characters here, just an excuse to take the world of BDSM and play with it in a supernatural way.
1 / 5
My review from last year: :yeshrug28. Hellraiser

No one cared last year either. :yeshrug
Hellraiser is shit.honestly comparing it to the source it is a truly awful adaptation.
In related news, I watched Hellraiser III tonight and it was even worse than I remembered. Pinhead is all like "Yeah I know these new Cenobites are bollocks, but I had to make them in a hurry. SHUT UP!" :lol I think this movie is probably worse than Bloodline, although I haven't seen Bloodline in a while either. I'll give it a watch later (not gonna rewatch the DTV sequels tho :yuck).
don't cast aspersions on the CD shooting guy. dude was legit.
Did you see the newest movie? :yuck
is it on netflix?
sorry i'm being lazy... i have no idea, past #3, the order in which these things were made :lol i'll have to wiki to determine the latest and greatest.is it on netflix?
Yes they have all of them.

I wish, I love that movie.found a stream, it's garbage though https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FLrWSxIcZaw
Everyone left me.
House and House 2 for tonight.
What time y'all starting tonight?
Are Bug and Frailty any good?
The film was considered to be controversial for a Disney film at the time because of the subject matter and the fact that Bill Cosby was featured as a character of evil.
