Better movies floating around on Shudder: 32 Malasana Street (also pretty well worn territory but decent) Sator, Possum, Caveat, Resolution, We Go On, Hellbender, The Mortuary Collection.

I agree with @Lanx , this wasn't bad by any stretch but it's really well worn territory. There are a lot better movies floating around on Shudder than this which is kind of a shame since it's very competent all around but with an incredibly trite story holding it back

I can't get through the tutorial mission. It's probably been posted but Professor Fig whiffs the second ledge climb and then just permanently runs into the mountain. Re-logged, deleted and re-made my character and Fig just keeps never being able to climb the second ledge in the intro

New Brandon Cronenberg movie is really good. Not a giant fan of Pearl or X but Mia Goth is also really turning out some great horror performances lately

I didn't think that this was awful but it's definitely not as good as the first two. It kind of felt like it was moving in the direction of understanding the atmosphere and visuals from the originals and the cenobites looked good, for the most part, I guess the female ones looked good and the...

$20 million and this movie puts this billion dollar show to shame in every sense of visuals. Handmade everything, better cinematography, better in every sense that it could be

The deleted scenes for this are a fucking gem. I think that my only complaint is that it goes full cheese at the very end incredibly abruptly but it kind of earned it. It's a weird classic due to Martin playing an incredible straight man to Candy's unforgettable Del Griffith but Martin squeaks...

The bar had already been set by the LOTR and Amazon knew that and still went with a shitty 3d printing company to make their props and costumes so it's them not even attempting to rise to the standard. This went from an army of the best VFX people in the world working with actual blacksmiths and...

I honestly thought that they were going to inadvertently kill each other in this, or accidentally kill themselves

WETA not being involved is one of the primary reasons why I can't watch this. There are other nitpicks for the LOTR trilogy but look and feel of this world that I had only imagined through the books' descriptions aren't counted anywhere in those. What details that were described they...

Jesus, if the Doomcock leaked viewer numbers are right about this they're completely fucked. Apparently they had less total viewership over the first two (possibly three) episodes than House of the Dragon had for its premiere and viewers are just about dropping in half each episode (6m -> 3m ->...

Is it racist to have the black elf firing his bow sideways?

The difference being that an episodic television serial usually doesn't have volumes of history and lore and story that you can immediately see being tossed out. A more apt comparison would be the LOTR trilogy v. The Hobbit. Both have a set story that they should follow and it was easy to stick...

This was a bit less than ok, was really derivative of The Color Out of Space and outside of taking all of its visual and creature queues from that the rest is mostly forgettable and really drawn out. This easily could have just been an episode of Creepshow and been more successful at what it was...

Why didn't they just use WETA for all of the special effects?

He generally does a really great job digging into whatever type that he's cast in. He's got a few weird and campy roles where he goes ham but he's also more than capable of just knocking shit out of the park and making you lose sight that he's Ethan Hawke. Not along the horror line but he did an...

Yeah, I'd agree. Get Out is his most complete movie although it leaves a lot to be desired. He's got a kind of Stephen King thing going on where he has decent premises but has no idea how to flesh them out into a complete story or end them properly. He also generally gets too far up his own ass...

The obvious answer to what is the best song ever written is Chris Isaak's Wicked Game

I would say that this is Radiohead's best song ever As far as best song ever something from Stax has to be thrown in. Otis and Sam & Dave and Booker T. & the MGs blew the lid off of things

Have 3 good films that I've stumbled upon in the past few months:

This was pretty bad. It had the Cronenberg design flair going for it but it felt completely forced and almost like he was counting on his bio-tech sketches brought to life in film to carry things as if he was Giger. The music was awful and that, combined with the editing, was really trying to...

I watched this during a recent binge of 4 new horror/suspense movies. This was really well done and was very suspenseful and atmospheric. I've seen it done a couple times so far but the fish out of water trope has turned into a very useful foil to modern technology and the ever present issue of...

I 100% agree but I did find it a refreshing turn from the Mandy style Cage being Cage movies to this just being comedy. Him and Pascal played really well off of each other, for some reason him shouting "not the bees" when talking about his alternate belt buckle really got me right at the end...

I kind of hate Lalo as a character. He's a great actor and his actions move the plot forward but he just feels much too neatly placed almost all of the time and what he does feels out of place and too convenient. Walter White and science got replaced by Jimmy and grifting really well for driving...

Immediately after finishing this I also thought that it was no Valhalla Rising. This didn't even feel like an Eggers movie after watching his previous two. He does surreal deep dives into specific periods and this just felt like art house viking movie compared to the atmosphere and tone and...

This was a pretty great neo-noire suspense horror. It's on Shudder right now also. A lot of really weird imagery and a lot of great tension building. A few story elements feel a bit scattershot but that ends up tying well into the themes or paranoia and forcing a hypothesis to match the desired...

If Dean Stockwell had asked Ziggy to get him out of there instead of shooting himself all would have been forgiven

Is new Jack going to replace old Jack? I was a bit iffy on The Boys guy at first but it ended up being a great episode. He was probably the most reserved of all of their guests and seemed to fit in with the discussion much more naturally than any of the others.

main, haven't started up the DLC yet. The end of the main campaign was anticlimactically very frustrating

I ran ranger, rogue, cleric and paladin for my first playthrough and had some rough spots but ended up clearing everything. I think that my cleric ended up being the MVP for the playthrough. Being able to cast sunlight with at least one character is almost necessary but other than that I think...

Dr. Venture in first episode

His son was about ready to nail a tight 15 before his mother stopped him

Of all the Ti West movies this is my least favorite one. This one is so retro that it's just already been done and been done just as well. It ended up feeling like it went too meta, the director in the movie was going to elevate porn above just being porn and this seemed like it was elevating...

This feels like it's going to be pure Lost mystery box at this point. They just keep adding more and more things and haven't resolved anything yet. Final episode looks like it's adding even more from the synopsis. It's an interesting enough premise but it's not like they've been renewed for...
