My best friend and I just had a (virtual) pizza party and watched The Wailing. Awesome Korean horror/thriller.

I've heard good things about Nefarious. Might give that a try.

[–] SemioticStandard@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

This looked interesting up until I saw that Glenn Beck was in it and that it may be a thinly veiled religious movie.

Last Night in Soho and/or Pearl.

Don't really know much about them but they were recommended to me multiple times now.

[–] toiletwhole@feddit.de 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

If you are watching Pearl, then I would recommend to also watch X beforehand

[–] domi@lemmy.secnd.me 2 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Already watched X, are they related?

[–] toiletwhole@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pearl is the origin story of Pearl in the movie X

[–] domi@lemmy.secnd.me 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Cool, looking forward to it.

[–] toiletwhole@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

Hope you will enjoy it

Pearl is the old lady in X.

Feels like an Event Horizon or Evil Dead (2013) kinda day so far.

[–] 1hitsong@lemmy.ml 3 points 1 year ago

Very nice! It's been too long since I last watched Event Horizon.

[–] MRPP@sopuli.xyz 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Event Horizon was a blast after taking a year-long hiatus from watching it. The atmosphere is palpable!

[–] GeekFTW 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Got my wife (who mostly watches horror-comedy) to watch Event Horizon 2 months back for the first time.

That ain't gonna happen again lol

Yeah, once the out-of-control stuff starts happening with mutilated kids, a lot of people might find their boundaries crossed. Good movie though, shame that there aren't many like it.

The Deep by Nick Cutter kinda evoked he same feelings, but in book form. Then there are the myriad underwater horror movies like Leviathan and Deep Star Six, but they aren't the same.

The Nun (rewatch). Scared the hell out of me when I first saw it. Valak is a fantastically creepy demon. The way they handled it in The Conjuring 2 (I think it was) with the painting was great. Creepy as hell.

I've been wanting to watch VHS. So I'll go with that one.
