Personally, Return of the Living Dead (1985). I've seen it so many times and it never gets old. One of my comfort movies for sure I even got the chance to see it in theater during a retro night a bit back. Was awesome.

What's yours?

I'm excited for this, the orignal was great.

Good morning,

Been reading the book for return of the living dead on breaks at work and was wondering if anyone had any favourite horror books they'd like to share.

I want to see horror comedy.

-The Chair

-The Other Side

-Portrait of God

-Curve

-Warnings

-Laura hasn't slept

Just a few short horror films on YouTube that I'd recommend. The Chair is likely my favorite out of the bunch. Anyone else into them? Have any to recommend?

Summary:

In an attempt to leave the haunting behind, the brothers discard the monkey and pursue separate paths over time. However, when the inexplicable deaths resurface, the brothers are compelled to reconcile and embark on a mission to permanently eliminate the cursed toy.

Director:

• Osgood Perkins

IMDB: 6.8/10 RT: 85% Popcornmeter

"Cruelly clever with some unforgettably gory set pieces, The Monkey reaffirms director Osgood Perkins' horror bona fides while revealing he also has a surprising -- albeit sick -- sense of humor."

Made by the director of Tucker and dale? I'll watch it.

Same guys that made talk to me. I'll definitely give it a watch. What you guys think?

So, I liked Magnus Archives quite a bit but nothing else seems to scratch that same itch (I have tried Old Gods of Appalachia & Nightvale and didn't get into them as much), tho currently listening to Malevolent and I am enjoying it so far. I liked Archive 81 too. Also tried a few anthology podcasts (Knifepoint, Pseudopod, NoSleep), I just generally prefer stuff that has an overarching story or some kind of throughline, with the same character(s).

If anyone has any horror (or even mystery) podcast reccs, especially recent ones, in any subgenre, please share :)

Sometimes a remake is done really well, on par or close to the orignal even. What's some of your favourites? Personally..

-The Crazies (2010)

-Dawn of the Dead (2004)

-Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)

Feel free to point out terrible remakes if you like as well. Why not.

Personally, Last Shift (2014). It was a smaller budget movie that came out awhile back that not many seem to know about. One of the only movies that actually got under my skin in recent years showing budget isn't always everything. The director remade it recently with a bigger budget but you can skip the remake it's not as good. Any other recommendations?

Just curious if anyone else here loves not so great, cheesy horror movies? I can't get enough lol. A bit of a guilty pleasure of mine and since it's a snowy and blowy Sunday I could use some ideas. To let you know what I'm thinking of think... Evil Toons (1992), Zombeavers (2014), Soriety Babes In The Slimeball Bowl-o-rama (1988).

What's your favorites?

We've really had a great couple of years for horror since covid and just had another strong year. Just wondering what everything's favorite films were from last year? The substance was impressive and even won an Oscar but personally my to three would be..

-Late Night With The Devil

-Strange Darling

-Smile 2

Yours?

A small-town farmer's son reluctantly joins a traveling group of vampires after he is bitten by a beautiful drifter.

Director - Kathryn Bigelow.

Stars - Adrian Pasdar, Jenny Wright, Lance Henriksen.

6.9/10 on IMDB, 74% Popcornometer.

"Near Dark is at once a creepy vampire film, a thrilling western, and a poignant family tale, with humor and scares in abundance."

Movie Trailer.

Anyone seen this film? It hide in the lost boys shadow he is definitely a worth watching so check it out if you haven't. If you have, what did you think?

Personally, I love horror comedy. I find a good one endlessly rewatchable. Cabin in the Woods, Return of the Living Dead, Tucker & Dale, Scream, frigging Killer Klowns from Outer Space! Definitely my favorite.

Otherwise I'm really into paranormal & zombie horror. I think that would make up my top three. Fast > slow zombies.
