purge got us again but if you didn't see the topic saying to go see The Menu, you should just know that you should go see The Menu

BUT

you may have also seen the trailer for the new M. Night movie Knock At The Cabin starring Dave Bautista

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0wiBHEACNHs

this movie is based on The Cabin at the End of the World which I read last year and absolutely loved, so I have high hopes for this one

I'm pretty interested in the casting choices of that one. I remember seeing the trailer a little while ago before something but I haven't seen it in any of the films we've seen since.

Film rankings so far from me:

1. Smile
2. The Menu
3. Black Phone
4. Fall
5. Barbarian
6. X
7. Bodies Bodies Bodies
8. Scream
9. Nope
10. Halloween Ends
11. Terrifier 2
12. Don't Worry Darling
13. Beast
14. Pearl
15. The Cursed
16. Prey for the Devil
17. The Invitation
18. Firestarter
19. Men

I lost my other list... I relied on this topic to save it, whoops. I don't know if I have forgotten something or not. The top 3 are all really close to each other, and I'd say they were all elites for me. Pretty good year for horror films in my opinion.

So Smile was pretty good, sort of a mix of It Follows & The Ring. I'd rank it around mid-tier. A bit disappointing use of generic tropes (jump scares, the detective, the unbelieving fiance) but when the film leaned heavily into the psychological side I was really digging it. The birthday party scene was so messed up and sad and scary. That was great. (Has anything good ever happened at a horror movie birthday party?) Sosie Bacon's performance as a whole was great. Didn't like the ending too much but overall I enjoyed the movie.

Nice I hope she gets nominated for a ton more. A Pearl best picture nod would be sweet as well (I can dream).

Also reminded me I forgot to put Orphan 2 on my list - slots between Mad God and Prey.

The fiance was the worst cast person I have ever seen in a movie.

feel like even calling it a horror is kind of a spoiler because it's best to go in knowing nothing but saw Bones and All and it was absolutely something else, basically a mix of Raw + Call Me By Your Name

Concerning news for Shudder.

AMC, who owns Shudder, is going to be making massive layoffs for their streaming platforms. Hoping Shudder makes it through alright because it really gives a great platform to some awesome stuff.

So obviously The Fabelmans isn't horror, but I think it's Ari Aster's new favorite movie. It has a very dysfunctional family, fucked up intersection of sex and religion, and a future jewish director growing up in the American southwest, who was very affected by an intense movie scene in a theater as a young child (in Ari's case, Dick Tracy).

Also, still waiting on a release date for Disappointment Blvd :/

I was convinced to rent Landlocked which just came out. It's a very low budget horror that is probably the slowest burn movie I've ever witnessed. It has like 2 really good parts but that's about it. I don't think it was worth the rental despite good reviews I saw. It's entirely too artsy but also not and it's just not... tremendous? Like I get the overall point of it, but they really should have drip fed more stuff throughout the film to at least give a sense of intrigue or leave us guessing.

Do not recommend.

M3GAN was a lot of fun and had a lot more meat to it than I expected. I really enjoyed the parts that seemed to explore more than just murder doll stuff. Really quality film. I wasn't blown away, but I really enjoyed this and would love to see a sequel which seems almost inevitable with the reception it got.

i don't like horror movies but i watched the menu on sunday and it was so fun. not particularly "horror-like" imo; it felt like more like get out or parasite than "classic" horror movie like poltergeist or texas chainsaw massacre

(also i saw the 2022 TCM earlier this year which was hilarious/bad)

I barely count The Menu as horror, honestly. Like it's one of my favorite movies of the year, easy. Absolutely love it. But it really just feels like a dark comedy, because there don't really seem to be a ton of horror elements in it.

I think it was definitely marketed as being horror and definitely has some very strong elements of it (I mean, almost every character dies and several die in violent or disturbing ways). It's horror enough that I would specifically not recommend it to someone squeamish
