@Wuxia @Ryno
Just watched The Angry Black Girl and Her Monster. I'd give it a 3/5. With a bigger budget I might've liked the production better but it was rough as is. The acting and concept was great though. Watching Lake Mungo now.

When I first saw the title TABGAHM I wasn't all that eager to watch it. I rarely watch horror movies geared to younger audiences, unless maybe Stranger Things, Psycho Goreman, Monster Squad, I mean there are exceptions but I generally stay away from them. Lake Mungo was pretty good.
Broil is another one. I'm watching it again right now. I always enjoyed it.
I have shitty internet out here, been collecting some blue rays I need to get all the halloween's and some classic horror movies based around halloween, those are my favorite.
Trick r Treat, Terrifier, The Crow and Idle Hands are my favorite based around Halloween.
You don’t have to deal with people a lot
A haunting in Venice wasn't bad. Jump scare or two and a solid but predictable story. I liked the atmosphere of the film though. Had that old school feel to it.
John carpenter got a new on on peacock called suburban screams
The Fall of the house of usher on Netflix was pretty cool. Maybe 7 out of 10
Goosebumps corny AF. Justin Long is underrated though.
After Ryno got me to watch Return Of The Living Dead 1 & 2 I've been going hard on 80s Horror. With the exception of Renfield. That movie was fucking great. Nicholas Cage was perfect as Dracula. But yeah I've watched Re-Animator, The Thing, The Fog, Escape From NY (not Horror but John Carpenter), haven't made it to Halloween yet, watching Prince Of Darkness right now, Dawn Of The Dead, Day Of The Dead, Death Ship (LMFAO omg @ that movie) Evil Dead 1, 2, and 3., Possession, and Scanners. I'll probably watch From Beyond and Videodrome next.
Renfield was dope thought it be cheesy
Y'all seen scanner darkly?
Stop.
Videodrome was bonkers. If I had known David Cronenberg directed it and it's ML was James Woods I would have watched it earlier. It was my first time seeing it. Cronenberg also did The Fly which was dope. He does great Body Horror. Has anyone seen Crimes Of The Future? The synopsis made it sound gay. Haven't watched it yet.
I'm on The Hidden right now. There's a young Lin Shaye (Insidious Franchise) and a young Danny Trejo in it. Danny Trejo looks the same as he always has. Lol.
Fun fact. Danny Trejo's first acting role was an extra in Runaway Train (1985), he was 41 years old. So technically he's never been a "young" actor lol
Yeah. He literally had like one sentence in that movie. "YO! What kind of dude are you?!" Then he got machine gunned. Lmao. But he ages pretty good. To start acting at 41 in the mid-80s and still look exactly the same in 2023.
I'm watching Chopping Mall right now, I remember seeing this when I was 5 years old. This was back when malls were lit and the place to be.
First episode of suburban screams wasn’t bad
Malls are wack af now lol. Unless I want decent sushi or a vanilla blue sky from Jamba juice.
I want a see a movie where Amazon Delivery Drones get accidentally struck by lightning and go on a murderous rampage killing all of the Amazon Prime members when dropping off their packages.

Mall used to be fucking awesome. I spent so much time playing X-Men Children Of The Atom and Mortal Kombat at the arcades it was ridiculous. They had great mom and pop pizza joints, no franchise stuff like today. And it was cheap af to watch movies, with Cadillac seating and they served food without having to pay for the extra charges upfront on the ticket prices. Sam Goody's for cassette tapes. Kaybee for toys. Electronic Arts for games. And Orange Julius. Comic book conventions on the weekends. Damn.
@Kill Spree I'll give you $25 to ban this idiot lol.
@Wuxia I pay $15 a month for one free movie, 10% off concessions, no online fees, no seat delivery fee and recliner seats. I try the go to the theater at least once a week. Sometimes I'll see multiple movies in a day.
Arcades are too expensive these days though for $8 at round one, you can play old school arcades for 90 minutes. Street fighter alpha 2, marvel vs street fighter, a bunch of other fighting games and jet scrollers from the 80s and 90s.
We got FYE and a comic shop that'll probably be closed by the end of the year because it doesn't get much business.
I thought FYE went out of business a long time ago. That's dope they're still open. That movie deal is NICE. Yeah I'd be there every week too. I haven't gone to one in years, ever since Suncoast Video and Spencer's closed in the same week and were later replaced with knock off versions. Man, having to pay for a limited time to play arcade games is wack. But I see why they do it.
I'd rather pay $8 for 90 minutes than a dollar per play haha. Some of the barcades are like $1-$2 per play.
I only go to the mall for Texas roadhouse
I'm a big fan of John Carpenter and have seen his entire collection of movies several times, from Escape From New York to Big Trouble In Little China. I understand he directed the Suburban Screams series, I think. But he recently made a comment that bugs the hell out of me. He was asked in an interview what he thought about Exorcist: Believer getting bad reviews. He said he hadn't seen it yet but he felt the director missed the mark and didn't know what he was doing considering how simple the Exorcist idea is. Dude didn't even watch the movie and buried it based on what a sample group had said. If I had done that I would have never watched some of his movies. Escape From LA for example. I had heard it sucked but I still watched it based on how great Escape From New York was. LA had some really dumb ideas to it with the basketball and surfing shit but I still loved it.

Jesus Christ.
Exorcist was considered a flop
You have no idea how many Horror movies I've watched that were given low RT scores or IMDB ratings that turned out to be enjoyable to me. Lol. There are so many different variables to consider why a movie would flop at the Box Office. With Exorcist: Believer it could be that the genre has been too exposed over the years and there is fatigue for exorcism-based movies. I try not to consider any of that, or reviews and public sentiment.
Yea I don’t care about ratings I would watch a no name movie if it was good I like those movies that are low budget and no one knows the actors because they might be big someday
Lmao in this Chopping Mall movie dude just pulled an M-16 off the rack at a Sporting Goods department.
I mean. Most of my favorite horror movies...
Idle Hands - 15%

The thing (1982 and 2011) - 85 and 34
I'm probably missing a bunch but off the top of my head I feel I already dragged that out but there's some good examples of "fuck rotten tomatoes".
Lmao fully automatic. His next line "let's go send those fuckers a Rambo-gram".
Gone.

That's exactly what I'm saying. Idle Hands 15%? Leprechaun 27%? I mean, I could understand Leprechaun In Space getting 27%. Lmao. But the first one? FD 36%? Smfh.
With the exorcist flip wasn’t a rotten tomatoes thing they spent $400 million on production snd didn’t even break even I liked the original excorist
