Is Suspiria worth watching?

The new one? As far as I know it's only been screened at festivals, USA gets it on the 26th but others in November. It's released in the UK for example on November 11th, I have to wait until the 23rd...   it's going to be a tough month trying to avoid spoilers as much as possible

La Morte Vivante is the french lesbian vampire classic we don't deserve

I've been digging horror anthologies this year.

XX

ABCs of Death

Creepshow

Black Sabbath / The Three Faces Of Fear

Murder Collection. Vol. 1 

Campfire Tales

Dead Of Night

 

And also a lot of Georges Méliès' films. Not horror by our definition today, but all extremely important for the creation of early horror and special effects/movies in general. 

 

Anyone have anthology suggestions? I feel like I've watched everything on Netflix already.  

[TheBoss 13,507]

Has anyone seen this yet?

I've seen the first two episodes, and I've got to say it's probably one of the best horror themed show since Penny Dreadful, much better than AHS and Castle Rock in my opinion, sadly I haven't been able to watch the third episode and I just can't stop thinking about it lmao it got me really hooked.

 

Mike Flanagan is so fucking talented.

Have you watched Trick 'R Treat? Is a modern classic

[Tragic Rabbit 3,355]

@@TheBoss I'm confused if it's worth it (Haunting of Hill House). The trailer looks like just another typical horror film, nothing new - but the reviews are really good. I had Penny Dreadful in my list but never got around to watch it.

 

It can't be better than AHS, duh.

I'm confused, are you talking about The Haunting of Hill House or Trick 'R Treat?

 

And I' m sorry, AHS it's entertaining imho, but long ago that show doesn't make the Horror in his title justice, plus I'm falling out of love with Ryan Murphy style tbh

 

Edit: 

 

Oops just saw the edit, it's a tv show and I haven't seen the trailer and honestly I don't want to spoil myself lol so I can't judge it

 

As far as I can say, the show is about a haunted house, but mostly it really focuses on his characters, the acting is very good and Mike Flanagan really knows how to just get a creppy atmosphere or play with the feelings of the characters. 

 

Still I'm talking just by seeing two episodes, but I still would encourage to check it out

After our biggest cinema chain replied that they won't get Suspiria after all, I asked if they could confirm this and this morning someone else running their Twitter account apologized their mistake and apparently it will be out Nov 23rd like it was supposed to. Hallelujah  I was already worried because it takes so long for films to come available on blu-ray and the wait would've been unbearable as it's currently the number one film I'm hyped for.

Holidays is good, so you might like that. VHS is good if you haven't seen it. The sequels, not so much, but the first one is very good.

OMG I'm so excited. Halloween is coming this Friday.

IKR! I'm so excited

[Ultra Violet 18,961]

So for Halloween i wanna watch something original and not cheap box office jumpscares

And certainly not some unoriginal remake

 

Can anyone suggest something thats not entirely gore-horror, or predictable with a twist ending they thought would leave us shook?

 

Something smart, leaning towards thriller if it has to?

Maybe The Others? It has no gore as I remember and it's a great movie, it stars Nicole Kidman

Wow yes omg thank you, i wanted to watch that but feared it would be too 'typical'

@TragicRabbit Watch Penny Dreadful, it is one of the best shows! So well done and so good. Way better than most horror/scary shows/films out now. Very classic gothic horror that's character driven. Eva Green is truly superb, long live Vanessa Ives! The show was cancelled too soon.

 

As far as House on Haunted Hill I'm excited to watch it! It's getting good reviews, great actually and has a great cast. I love Carla Gugino. She's also in Gerald's Game which is a Netflix original Stephen King adaptation that was really great! Anyways from what I've read it is more character driven as well and focuses on the drama of what the family went through with elements of creepiness and scares. It sounds great! Probably will start this weekend.

 

Other thriller/slight horror shows I'd mention on Netflix are Requiem and Tabula Rasa, they are soooo good as well. I'd even throw Dark in there but it's not necessarily horror to me lol.

 

Very excited for the new Halloween as well!!!

Gerald's Game is so good, It was also directed by Mike Flanagan

Holidays was good, but VHS... idk, I couldn't really get into it? Everyone I know seems to love it though lol

Can someone else please watch A Serbian Film so I'm not alone in my trauma? 

[TheBoss 13,507]

Wow yes omg thank you, i wanted to watch that but feared it would be too 'typical'

I mean it's a haunting film, but a really good one. Also The Invitation on Netflix is a really good thriller
