Recommend some good movies!

Also caught Paranormal Activity 2. The first one scared me pretty good, they did a great job building the tension and intensity of the film. Part 2 goes for a lot more cheap scares that come off as corny and trying to recapture what made the original so great. The eeriest parts are just the single angle shots of nothing happening and the tension building for what seems like minutes for a chilling reveal. I wasn't interested enough to catch the 3rd one.

I HIGHLY suggest VHS and VHS 2. Still haven't watched VHS Viral yet. VHS are awesome horror movies. Super crazy, super intense, insanely creepy, and some bits are truly violent.

K8t, you mentioned, on this very page!, two movies that I need to get around to watching: Rosemary's Baby and Babadook. I've heard Babadook is difficult/un-fun to watch if you're a parent. I can't stand kids-in-peril movies, and this did affect me while watching Poltergeist but I knew no one dies so I wasn't that bent outta shape about it.

Oh yeah, also watched It Follows a week or so ago. A lotta hype for a perfectly fine horror movie that I'll never think about again. Interesting concept though.

Just downloaded Bone Tomahawk, a horror-western, and am looking forward to checking that out this week.

oooh! Didn't know you could download Bone Tomahawk! Legally? Really excited for that.

Babadook maybe would be tough if you're a parent? I felt really badly for the mom. But, it was good.

Rosemary's Baby was definitely the hit of the season. Just awesome. Need to get to the other 2 in the trilogy.

"Legal" is a funny word, isn't it? I mean, what really is the law? Who are we? What is all this? Where the hell is my wallet?

[K8teebug]

You can rent it from amazon. That's legal enough for me.

really liked that one too

I expect we'll see a lot more of Olivia Cooke and Thomas Mann in the future
also think Alfonso Gomez-Rejon will have a bright future too

I went to Raleigh to see this on Boxing Day. I'm not a Tarantino guy but bought into the 70mm hype. An interesting experience. Hyper-violent.

Was underwhelmed. Probably my least favorite of all of his films. Not sure why it rubbed me the wrong way. I thought some parts were great and it didn't really drag [considering it's almost 3 hour run time], and I thought it was a fun "who-done-it", but it just lacked something for me. Maybe he set up the whole "I can't trust anyone in this movie" and didn't have a character to get behind and then the movie kind of just ends. Not sure. It also was probably his least violent film.

I know after this I can't wait for him to come back to tell a story in modern times.

I ended up not going. 

I might still try to catch it in the theater before it leaves...

[DeathFromAbove1979]

I watched the leaked version that came out  on Christmas Eve. I was dying to see it in theaters but I just couldn't resist seeing it immediately for free.
