HORROR MOVIES ONLY

I believe the monster is more like a foster child. Frankenstein just by name but unrelated.

Lol, a "foster child"? Christ, the foster system in your country must be really fucked up ;)

I guess someone mentioned the brain, whatever the owner of the monster's brain is called could be the name of the monster but the story doesn't lend itself to that, really. Since it's Dr. Frankenstein's creation, he really should just give it a name like any other invention, he was just too much of a pussy to see the project through.

LOVE this movie. The book it is based on is something I highly recommend as well. It's very different but I love what they did with the material. It's like the movie is based purely on an aspect of the book and since seeing it and reading the book, I keep thinking what an awesome approach that is. The book itself is super weird and would be hard to adapt as a whole but going the route they did was a stroke of genius.

Oh cool, didn’t know there was a book. Not many people I showed it to liked the ending but I think it just leaves a lot up to interpretation, which I think is great.

Cell is great too

I haven't seen Cell, I'm going to check that one out for sure.

But yeah, the book is called "Pontypool Changes Everything" and it's really weird. It's weird in a way where I absolutely loved it but I can kind of see/understand why people wouldn't like it. It's just such a strange book and it's much more than just what the movie shows you. Like I said, I think the movie is brilliant, the author of the book wrote the screenplay and I think what he did with his own work was really clever, to just take that very aspect of the novel and hone in on it and make it this much smaller thing. It gives it this great claustrophobic and "tight" vibe that worked really well for me.

Cell is great. There's a scene in there that still lives in my head.

I assume we're talking about the 2016 one with John Cusack, right? Not the 2000 THE Cell with J-Lo? (That one is actually awesome as well)

I just "acquired" the John Cusack one, will check it out tonight.

Damn, that's so visually similar. Are they connected in some way? Or just the directors style.

It's just his style. The Fall being his ultimate example of him bringing his style and vision to fruition. He shot The Fall in close to 20 different countries and it has so many visual references to surrealism, especially Salvador Dalí. His artistic skill in the visual format is incredible. You're in for a treat if you haven't seen this one yet!
 
Candyman.

The original movie. The setting. The racial aspect. The haunting music by Philip Glass.

I am a man who likes men sexually and the part with Helen and the psychiatrist is written from the perspective from a gay man (until the early '70 the psychiatric concept of gay people was that it was a mental illness).

Nightbreed has the same theme, but is a far poorer movie.

This is where I would have posted the "ORLY airport 400 m" sign, because we past there yesterday.

Haven't seen the other fragments, so I'm taking your word on it.
 
Trilogy of Terror and The Exorcist are the only two films which have ever actually scared me properly

Saw both of them on my own. ToT on an old tv age 12-ish and Exorcist in a double-bill at the cinema with Exorcist 2 age 14 I think.

I was the only person in the cinema (shouldn't have been in there to begin with as it was an 18+) and when the woman stood by the screen in the interval with a box thingy of ice creams to sell the little light she had made her look bizarre and I almost shit myself in fear and slid down behind the seats to hide. Just in case like. Such a super-vivid memory of both films from so long ago shows how much impression they left on me I guess
