It Follows, and other horror movies that annoyed you

[NewEnglandGothic]

I like It Follows enough that I just bought the blu-ray last night.

 

Sucky plot --agreed-- but I really liked the soundtrack (amazingly it was done single handedly by some game soundtrack guy). Liked the actors, the milieu, and the way it was filmed. Plight of the kids reminded me a bit of Halloween or Donnie Darko.

 

A lot of people loved it and a lot hated it on the blu ray film forums.

 

A horror film... some rave about... that annoys me? The Babadook... the Babadook the Babadook... wwwaaaaaaaaaa... shut that psychopathic kid up will you!

 

Donnie Darko, now there's one helluva movie!

You catch the Director's Cut? (thumbs u

Sure did. I own both copies, though I prefer the theatrical release a bit more.

Hands down the BEST horror movie in a long, long time was 'Housebound'. Great writing, great acting, clever, fresh, funny, creepy.

5 solid stars across the board.

 

 

I started watching this on Netflix. I liked what I saw, but need to finish it.

Babadook seemed like something I might get into plot-wise...turned it off when she killed the little dog

Yeah, I hated that part.

Anyone see this yet?

I am officially done with any horror movie the minute they kill the dog. It's unnecessary brutality. Massacre as many people as they want, but the minute they kill the dog? I'll turn it off.

[Darkowl]

What about Cujo?

[Doktor]

Well, evil dogs are something altogether different. I should have clarified.

Anyone see this yet?

 

Watching the Trailer I kept thinking I've seen this already.

 

Michael Keaton, no that wasn't it, crazy tenant they couldn't get rid of. Samuel L. Jackson, super-friendly cop in the neighborhood, no, not it either.

 

Then it hits me. Kurt Russell, Ray Liotta...

Wanna hear something funny...just got GTA 5 for my pc and I get so sad every time I have to kill some punk's dog who's attacking me. Just ruins my whole day...why'd they have to put that in there?

Wow, talk about a rip off. Hollywood....

I saw it. There's a major twist in the middle I won't reveal that mostly differentiates it from a film like "Unlawful Entry" and makes you uncertain of who the real victim is. Not Oscar material, but a compelling suspense flick that I wasn't disappointed in.

Now I'm even more interested.

[Chip Cataldo]

I hope the "major twist" isn't what's painfully obvious from just seeing the trailer...

[Darkowl]

That's what I was thinking. fantastic_four, can you confirm that?

[fantastic_four]

The trailer does show just enough to let you know why it's not a straight-up stalker film--you'd have to specifically ask me what you think is "painfully obvious" for me to confirm or deny without spoiling.

[Darkowl]

It looks like the husband may be the real bad guy, because he did something incredibly horrible to the stalker back in high school...like Billy Madison
