  • Absolutely! I loved how the director worked with the wide-angle lenses so that you got much more out of the picture, it also made me feel sick to my stomach so many times… But yeah. The ending… What a shit fest lol, and not really in a bad way but a WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK kind of way. Note if you’ve seen her other movie, Revenge, it is kinda reminiscent of that. It’s a really bloody ending there as well and she apparently love that types of scenes. I also wonder if the bloody walls was a reference to The Shining, someone commented on this earlier in the thread but the hallway where she walks is totally a reference to that as well.










  • Many good points here! I personally think The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday the 13th (2009) and A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010) are pretty good remakes myself. I cannot say I’ve gone this deep into it like you have in your thought prosses, but I think they add some elements that makes it work. The story in these movies are maybe not worked on so much but they did a decent job at making these movies “modern” if you will.

    I now see that I’m contradicting myself by what I wrote in my OP but my view is maybe a bit more nuanced than what I wrote there.









  • Wow there is some great gems here!

    The Others is amazing and I remember being blown away by it when I watched it. Totally love it!

    The new Boogyman was probably one of my favorite more last year. It actually made me really get into it and i felt it wasn’t all jumpscare like many horror movies do today. I love horror movies that build it up and takes it time.

    Talk to me… Omg what a great flix. I think I have to watch it again. I’m looking forward to see what comes next from the director.

    Oh and Antichrist. Wow, that movie was such a mixed bag for me. I really liked it until the ending, but I won’t go into spoiler territory. It’s definitely one of the more fucked up movies I’ve seen, but I wouldn’t say it’s really that bad.

    By the way, if you’re into Lars Von Trier then The House that Jack built is pretty good as well. And if you’re interested in something that is not horror related Melancholia is a great movie, but it might be a hard watch if you’re not to patient. The reason I love it is because it truly shows how depression can be.
