Lol BC 2006 is a few notches above the latest remake .. the newest one was woke and just dull and pointless
I give it a 6.4.. it is nothing like the original but I suspect it would have been almost impossible to try and recreate the creepy tone of the original .
BC 2006 had nice setting and scenery - it really pulled off the Christmas vibe.. there’s a few good kills as well .. problem is, they tried to shock us and gross us out but that didn’t work . Instead it just made the film feel dirty
I don’t like the backstory they give Billy and wish they would have left it a bit more unclear
Yeah black Christmas 2006 was not a great movie but it’s still a pretty decent one.. it deserves a 6.3 score
5.9 is too low.. I’d give it a solid 6.8… it is uneven in spots but still a good slasher
“Halloween 2023 reboot Michael”
Whoa tell me more!
Any word on the Silent Night remake?
I did not like the finale either but the rest makes for a pretty solid slasher flick .. it’s one of those 80s slashers and it has that raw disturbing tone to it. The grandfather scene was interesting and this film is a bit mean spirited and that’s a plus
I remember renting this on vhs way back in the day. Good times .. this is a movie I’d like to see them remake but make it even meaner
But the problem is, no one cares about Harold and they definitely aren’t interested in seeing a spin-off series based on his gang. Seriously, I could not tell you one interesting thing about him or his gang .. he’s just another gangster - been there five that
Yep, it was painfully mediocre and actually had scenes that made me cringe a bit. How did Chase get this so wrong? Where was the charm of the tv series?
Yes but after a year of dealing with the George Floyd riots, what made Chase think we were interested in seeing what led to another earlier round of race riots? Talk about terrible timing ..
Ultimately, many saints of Newark seems pointless. It isn’t enjoyable on any front - I would rather it had never been made
I remember the scene with the black power beat poetry and my eyes rolling back in my head. Not even halfway through the movie it was not hitting on any hood notes and by the end I was beyond bored. I was gutted as this is a movie was one I really looked forward to
Both democrats and republicans have a nice % of scumbags in each group. If you think it’s only the other group then you are blind
Lol why would anyone apologize for a privilege they have? White guilt is truly bizarre to me
I don’t see these people as being horrible people(well, a few may be) but more so very flawed and very human. Each character is very layered and that makes the show fun to watch . I honestly don’t even care that much about the “mystery” each season
This was the most predictable storyline of this season. Gee I’m totally shocked she scammed the kid 😳
Why bring Tanya back again?! We’ve seen enough of her - 2 seasons is plenty
Generalizing any group is silly and counter productive
The first 5-10 minutes of Halloween 4 is the best part. It really sets the Halloween/fall mood. Then when they wheel Michael into the ambulance with the theme going - it really hits. Too bad the rest of the movie is a rather average Halloween experience .. michaels mask is god awful btw
You don’t think people aren’t as interested in socializing ?
I do miss the old IMDb boards though
The riddler in the Batman does not come close to Ledgers Joker. Not even in the same realm
That’s what is great about the original Texas chainsaw - it didn’t need to be complex nor did it need top notch acting! It was filmed perfectly and it creates a very unsettling tone from the get go. The cheap grain film is what adds the extra punch and it seems like a snuff film at times. Movies nowadays are too polished and fake looking
You are confusing ‘intense’ with ‘gore’.. it’s the exact opposite imo. TCM is much more intense for the things you don’t see! The imagination always creates something much more hard hitting
Sadly in 2022 it is very hard to write good villains or original horror stories - everything has been done to death ..
