Hi all! I never realized images werent allowed. But here is a link to the image in question. https://imgur.com/a/3O72kmq

So I am a WWE fan and I was playing 2k25. There is a scene in the MyRise story mode where you do some supernatural stuff to mess with your opponents. After the match, you speak to CM Punk about it.

He then makes a reference about a house he remodeled and some strange things happening on the third floor.

I immediately knew he was referencing a low budget horror film he was in called "Girl on the Third Floor." He was credited under his real name Phil Brooks.

Has anyone else seen the film before? It's not very memory worthy but I remember it just being OK. I literally only watched it a few years back because I saw that the trailer had CM Punk in it. And I knew his real name was Phil. Lol

Did any of you who played the game catch this reference also? I just thought I'd share for any fellow Wrestling/Video Game fans. I like when 2 mediums crossover like this and it was pretty unexpected.

I’ve tagged this for spoilers, please be warned.

I’m going to preface this by saying that in the past Hugh Grant hasn’t really been my cup or tea (or slice of pie?) in terms of physical attractiveness level (I have nothing against his acting though), but he’s played enough romantic leads that it’s hard to feel like his casting wasn’t the result of an intentional plan to put a past heart throb in the role.

The title of this post is admittedly a little clickbaity, but I can see how Reed is played as highly charismatic in an “awkward but endearing” way before the plot really gets rolling. I think the casting of a past romantic lead who has aged a bit matches with this.

I’m in my 20s, a good bit older than Barnes and Paxton, but I think it’s interesting that the filmmakers seem to have gone out of their way to cast a decent looking Reed and then never make any mention to either one of the young women having any opinion on this. (I’m glad the movie wasn’t completely about sex because there’s a lot to explore about religion outside of that, I’m just curious how folks feel about Reed.)

I also want to throw in here that I am not someone with a habit of being into “psychopath” characters, so I’m basing this discussion starter purely on what one might make of the aesthetics of casting Hugh Grant and how he plays the character for the first half hour or so of the film. And I know there’s way more to unpack from this movie and this is a pretty shallow question, but I’ve read discussion threads on other aspects of the movie and hadn’t seen this come up.

How do folks feel? Is Reed hot? Supposed to be hot? Are women in their 20s part of the demographic that’s supposed to find him hot?

I obviously don’t think he’s hot by the end of the movie! Horrible behavior lol.

Why did Kevin kill his dad and sister? When Eva asked “why” all he said was “I thought I knew but I didn’t” knew what

Also what does the title of the movie indicate

For those unaware, CB is a horror flick loosely based on the true story of a bear in the 1980s who ingested several kilograms of cocaine. However, instead of dying from it like the real event, the bear goes berserk and starts killing people left and right. It is wonderfully gory and gives you exactly what you'd expect from a film called Cocaine Bear. It's rather fitting that it's set in the 80s because it reminds me so much of an 80s horror film. Very gruesome, yet also comical. Think Critters, Killer Klowns from Outer Space or any of the Elm Street sequels. Fun fact: Elizabeth Banks directed this movie. That's right, the same lady who directed that awful Charlie's Angels reboot a couple years ago. Talk about a comeback. Also, CB has one of Ray Liotta's last performances and the way he goes out fits with the dark comic tone of the whole film. So yeah, great dark comedy and certainly one of the most enjoyable films released in the 2020s.

And believe it or not, Snow White is not Rachel Zegler's worst movie!
This piece of shit is so bad it's almost impressive!

The first twenty minutes were promising, with some good lines and some great gore, but then all of a sudden it became a Limp Bizkit video. I'M NOT KIDDING! Fred Durst shows up playing himself, from twenty-five years ago despite the fact he doesn't look anything like he did twenty-five years ago, and everyone starts singing Limp Bizkit songs! Are you shitting me!?

And they kept calling him by his whole name, Fred Durst, I guess to remind the audience it was really him. In the middle of a fight, chaos panic, here they are screaming, "Hey! Fred Durst! Watch out!"

I won't give you any spoilers because I can't, I didn't make it to the end. I gave up when someone pulled a guitar out of seemingly nowhere and accompanied Fred on a Bizkit song in an effort to inspire everyone to fight back against the evil machines.

I could go on, but for the sake of my own mental well being, I won't.

Where was this short horror movie. I dont know whats its called but it involves smiley young brown haired woman who seems to go buy fruits to the bazaar or market I think, involves oranges maybe. The setting and start of the movie was nice casual summer day and then she gets back home with bag of fruits, something creepy happens, goes to David Lynch territory quickly. And terrible faces appear. Remember watching it on youtube. Maybe even not finishing because it made me to turn it off. Spooked me good and none of short horror movies did anything to me but this did. Tried to ID movie with AI and going through the list. i just cant find it. Thanks in advance.

What horror movies you will probably never watch that you don’t have a reason for. I’m not talking about refusing to watch I Spit on you Grave because of the SA or films that you have heard are bad. Like you don’t have a justifiable reason for.

Personally I don’t think I’ll ever watch Midsommer and hereditary. don’t have a reason why, it just really does not interest me. I also do judge more recent films by the poster. I’m not ashamed.

Just watched these two movies back to back by coincidence and just wanted to share some thoughts.

I unexpectedly really loved Smile 2. Such good horror that didn’t feel cheap with its jump scares. It was such a great allegory for trauma and PTSD, all carried by my new favorite actress Naomi Scott. However, the ending felt a little lackluster for all of the insane buildup. Yes the monster in all his gory glory was great, but it ended a little fast in my opinion.

On the flip side I kind of hated The Substance overall. It had great potential and an interesting plot but it overall felt pretty tacky with a shallow message (except the date prep scene, which was very hard hitting and kept the balance of disturbing realism).

I think the grand finale of The Substance’s gore fest was a little unearned, and the wonky buildup made it feel silly instead of idk, fantastical horror.

I think the over the top blood spraying across the audience would have suited the finale of Smile 2 much more, and after the reaction shot of the bloody audience we could have seen Skye in a much more theatrically butchered state instead of just a mic to the head (not full Substance Cronenberg but something more than head bashing. The guy with the smashed face had a much scarier look so why reuse that type of death for an even more down played look as your finale?)

Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer has the total 180 of a campy energy, almost down to a snuff film vibe sometimes. What other horror flicks capture that feel?

quick appreciation post for my favorite found footage styled horror movie

plot: a man who makes a career out of conning religious people by performing exorcisms, decides to make a documentary exposing the chicanery of it all. he visits a family, who believes their daughter is possessed. when his usual tactics of 'expelling the demon' does not work, he realizes he is face-to-face with the real evil

the acting is superb. its one of those movies that give you a claustrophobic feeling, like youre apart of it. the setting is straight out of my nightmares, a rural louisiana farmhouse. the suspense is top notch and what i love most about this film, there is no use of CGI or special effects. the actress is a contortionist. its so raw & genuinely terrifying as hell. just dont watch the second one lol, its trash

Like so many videos are super censored or not allowed at all. Im wondering if there’s a place like reddit but for vids i guess. Nothing specific, just wondering where all “other” videos go that can’t be shown on youtube. (Don’t say porn sites, that’s different)

Caveat: I was high af, drank a couple beers too

I loved it. Avoided it for years but been on a Cage kick lately, and it’s been a blast. It was so over the top that I was hooked right away. As usual Cage is incredible. Overall I thought it was fairly well done, and Cage kicking Leloo into the wall might be one of the greatest scenes ever. He just pummels them! The ending was great. I was looking forward to the bees scene and it never happened! Must be an alternate ending

I mean, 40 million budget is absolutely ridiculous. If it was a low budget indie film I’d be even more ecstatic about it. And while I am bitter it was filmed in Canada and not my backyard of the San Juans, it still looks really nice

Overall 1/2 out of **

I was giggling so fucking hard throughout. Cage is a national treasure, no pun intended

One of my goals this year is to watch a horror movie by myself. I've attempted this twice now, and ended up seeing Companion and Death of a Unicorn. I enjoyed them both, but they weren't all that scary.

I think my ability to pick a horror film is fundamentally skewed by the fact that I don't particularly want to be frightened or unsettled. So, I've come to the experts to ask for help!

If it helps you make suggestions, these are some horror movies I think I would have liked if I didn't chicken out and watch video essays on them instead:

• The Menu
• Heretic
• The Substance
• Woman in the Yard

Also, I really enjoyed What's Inside (if that counts) and gaming wise, I've picked up Control and Hellblade: Senua's Sacrifice because they piqued my interest.

hi!

short backstory, i started looking for 80s/90s synth movie soundtracks and found so many from italy and never watched them so im trying to catch up and watch a lot of these like Lucio Fulci, Dario Argento etc. i also like the Killing Birds soundtrack a lot!

finally watched this movie yesterday and lemme tell you i am used too cheesy and sometimes weird/kinda bad acting in movies and it is a charm sometimes but here it was just unpleasant....

first i dont care that much about strange stories but here it was so bland + i didnt buy all these characters and their intention to find rare specimen? come on... then landing in an abandoned house, sure of course you just stay there even if someone has suddenly hardcore hallucinations? (or whatever magic was involved).

the whole time the movie was just moving forward so slow and boring, sometimes there were scenes with a faster music track which i recognized of course but totally our of place situation. then the best scene came in, Jennifer? already forgot the names, wents outside alone of course in the night of course and sees the zomibelike figurine which walks so slowly and the other girl standing on the opposite window and just stares without any move. jennifer doesnt even act like someone in this situation, she isnt really frightened and looks like, yeah come on just walk to me and kill me, lol? not trying heavily to scream, to run away and so on. just yeah show some explicit murder scene, thats the only thing which seems to have been cared for.

and then the movie gets finally some faster speed in progression but then again the acting was so bad and normally i dont care much but here the guys were mostly waiting and not acting authentically like trying to survive, just staring and waiting. the slow movement of the zombie/enemy was so slow which was not even frightening. ahhh i could move on but wow this was a very bad movie... i should have watched the fog over again... the only great thing was the soundtrack. what a letdown...

do you know this movie? what do you think? i already know a lot of italo horror movies as stated but this one wow....

Hey guys! I’m writing my undergrad dissertation on female puberty portrayed through horror, and I was hoping you guys might have some recommendations? Here’s the list of the ones I’m already discussing:

Ginger Snaps (2000) Valerie and Her Week of Wonders (1970) Carrie (1976) The Witch (2015)

Any others would be appreciated! :)

Non-English movies I super enjoyed: Audition, Shutter, Goodnight Mommy, High Tension, Martyrs, Rec, Suspiria, Baskin, Ichi the Killer, The Orphanage, Ju-On, Ringu, I Saw the Devil, Train to Busan, Irreversible, Taxidermia, Oldboy, and Funny Games.

I just joined this sub & really wanted to make a post about these two movies so please bear with me.

I just watched “Talk to Me” for the first time yesterday & now I can’t stop watching interviews of the Philippou Brothers & the rest of the cast/crew. Then, just today, I discovered the trailer for “Bring Her Back.” WOW. Let me say, I’m not easily impressed with horror movies. If I don’t feel at least a little nauseated after the movie then I don’t consider it scary (and unfortunately I’m one of those people who really likes to trigger their nervous system!).

But with “Talk to Me” the actors, the script, the practical effects. I definitely felt a little unsettled while watching it. I love all of the details that have been put into the story. It felt still within the genre of familiar while also taking a unique step outside of it that did not disappoint. This movie had me hooked, wondering what could possibly happen next? What will the spirits do to continue manipulating Mia? Will they get Riley? What is actually real & not the spirits fcking with Mia’s head? Will all of my questions be answered?

And then the trailer for “Bring Her Back”? It looks even more promising! I seriously love the Philippou Brothers for taking the route of more practical effects rather than CGI. It seems they have a really great grasp on what actually makes the eeriness of horror & I seriously appreciate that. Often times, I feel modern day horror is just loads of blood & gore. Which can be horrifying but only if it’s done right. Horror is not just violence. You can’t just put blood in a depressing movie & claim it’s “horror.” I think the Philippou Brothers have found “their genre” if you get me. I’d of course love to see them direct other genres too but. If this trailer lives up to itself, I really think they could continuously dominate horror as a whole!!

Okay sorry I’m just so excited, here’s my questions (if anyone else is as excited as I am):

What did you think of “Talk to Me”? Are you looking forward to “Bring Her Back”? What would you name your Top 3(+) horror movies? Here’s some of my top movies in no particular order: Hereditary, The Shining, Midsommar, Us, Get Out, & His House.

I'm looking for some recent movies to watch, I prefer horror but thrillers are good too. I know of some titles that have released this year (Wolf Man, Heart Eyes, Companion, etc) but I'm not sure how good or well received any of them have been, so I'm wondering what people have been enjoying so far. Thanks!

I genuinely want to know people’s honest opinions about this movie, I can’t lie it’s a movie of its own kind and really affects the person watching which I absolutely love for horror movies in todays world, it is, its own genre of movie and I love that, plus I have some merch from unusualhorror that is Serbian film 👀

I can find a logical explanation for everything in the story except the police testimony. Why would the police lie about the supernatural things they saw in the apartment? It does not make sense. I dont believe in ghosts or whatever, but I have finished the movie a few days ago and I keep thinking about the story it is based on. Maybe something about Estefanía gutiérrez lázaro's case is true after all? What are your thoughts?
