oh.. I don't watch horror movies.. but The Ring seemed pretty crazy.. they were showing it on one of those Chinatown buses like ten years ago...

you were on a Chinatown bus that was showing a movie? What sort of most luxurious Chinatown bus ever did you take?!

we went up to NYC to see Joao Gilberto.. dream come true..caught him just in the nick of time...

I have no recollection of anything about the bus though...

For those of you who like foreign cinema/the classics, might want to check out FilmStruck which drops in 2 weeks.

I have had Hulu for years, merely for access to the Criterion Collection of films but Turner apparently has bought the rights to that away which will result in my cancelling Hulu and getting this instead.

Their FAQ page makes me a little nervous. Captions are something they're "testing out." Yeah, that'll be great since you openly advertise as focusing on foreign films. Also, the supported device list at time of launch is a little slim. I don't expect niche stuff like my TiVo having an app day one but no Roku/Chromecast/video game systems is weak. Extremely weak.

Wow what a fucking huge loss for Hulu. Criterion collection is super crucial viewing.

It honestly was the only reason I was paying for it. I hope this thing isn't a glitchy pile of crap and they spread out to Roku and some more devices ASAP.

I don't use Hulu, most of those channels have apps that let you watch more episodes of those shows for free.

Exactly. I have cable and OnDemand. Hulu has by far the least original programming of the big three networks. Easy to drop if they lose Criterion.

Anyone have any netflix/amazon prime movies to recommend for scary movie October?

[Bagley]

I've heard "It Follows" is quite good

Wanted to follow up on this! Tonight I've got "The Babadook", "Deathgasm" and "A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night" [all on Netflix I believe]

There are also limited screenings of The Shining this weekend! Might have to venture out for that. Seeing it on the big screen should be a treat. Anything else out there? I wasn't able to catch "Don't Breathe"...

[grateful]

If I was a good person, I'd go see Young Frankenstein on the big screen, tonight only.

Loved Babadook. We watched "We Are What We Are" this weekend. Would highly recommend!

Better now than when you're in the theater. If Peewee Herman can't overcome that stigma, what hope do us mere mortals have?

OMG SERIOUSLY!?!?!? The Lost Boys is one of my favorite movies!!!! Holy crap!!

EDIT: The one in Ashburn is screening Shaun Of The Dead
EDIT EDIT: Also showing Army Of Darkness, The Exorcist, Silence Of The Lambs, House Of Dracula and Rocky Horror Picture Show

Watched DEATHGASM last night, it's like Detroit Rock City meets Evil dead sprinkled with Tenacious D. Super fun movie, gets insanely gory at times, but has a fun little horror heart to it.

I know it's a drive, but come to Winchester Virginia.
