I just don’t find old people chanting “hail *insert demon name here*” scary. |
neekafat
12.05.18 | First half is way better than the second half lmao, agreed with you about the ending |
Hawks
12.05.18 | Still haven’t watched this. I’m fucking up. |
luci
12.05.18 | "lack of real horror" |
TheGreatQ
12.05.18 | Creepy music and 2-3 jump scares behind people being miserable isn’t horror to me, and certainly not enjoyable. |
neekafat
12.05.18 | to me a film centered around the horror of what real life can be like is way more interesting than supernatural satan cults |
Rowan5215
12.05.18 | first half of this movie was incredible, last 20 minutes were dogshit |
TheGreatQ
12.05.18 | I hate movies that are like the first half, and “real life is the true horror” type things. I only ever watch supernatural horror because that’s just what I’m into, so I felt really mislead from what I’d heard about the movie when I started. |
NorwichScene
12.05.18 | Awesome movie, except last 5 mins |
Evreaia
12.05.18 | Everything past that one great scene (you know which) was dogshit. Up until that point it was okay-ish. |
BigBlob
12.05.18 | most horror films that get mainstream praise as being "the scariest film of the year" tend to be shit. learnt that from that godawful paranormal activity |
Evreaia
12.05.18 | I was pleasantly surprised by the Conjuring (both of them) though, and those got branded "the exorcist of this generation".
But yeah, paranormal activity has to be one of the worst movies I've ever seen. |
StrikeOfTheBeast
12.05.18 | Definitely a one of a kind horror flick. I appreciated how it held back on the jump scares and emphasized on sheer dread and atmosphere. Best horror film of the year. |
rockandmetaljunkie
12.05.18 | Great movie, but the ending was a big dissapointment. It reminded me of the witch and i wasn't a fan of that movie. |
Evreaia
12.05.18 | The VVitch was miles better than Hereditary. |
StrikeOfTheBeast
12.05.18 | I still have yet to see that tbh. I want to but keep forgetting about it. lol |
CugnoBrasso
12.05.18 | I liked it lmao |
butt.
12.05.18 | Can't believe you people thought the ending was a disappointment. It was batshit crazy. Easily my MOTY. The Witch was also amazing but you can't compare the two. Entirely different. |
Rolling Girl
12.05.18 | I loved Hereditary personally. Once the 2nd half gets going it goes right up my uncanny valley.
But how can y'all like the Witch by not Hereditary? |
BigBlob
12.05.18 | this The Witch film must have passed me by. its actually worth a watch? |
butt.
12.05.18 | oh yeah, it's fantastic. |
DungeonBoy
12.05.18 | I loved The Witch, and Hereditary, and man.. have y'all seen Mandy? |
rockandmetaljunkie
12.05.18 | The ending of the witch is hilariously bad. Can't take such movies seriously so the horror element is wearing off. |
rockandmetaljunkie
12.05.18 | @Dungeon someone mentioned already in another thread, but for different reasons. |
DarkSideOfLucca
12.05.18 | This was my favorite movie of the year, I'm actually kind of surprised that it's split among horror fans. And the horror elements of the end are very different from Rosemary's Baby...I mean there's a cult, so that's similar but that's literally it. |
butt.
12.05.18 | right. If this is a ripoff of Rosemary then every slasher ever is just a ripoff of Halloween |
JeetJeet
12.05.18 | @Dungeon Mandy is the best horror flick of this year imo. |
butt.
12.05.18 | shit i keep forgetting to watch that. and Apostle |
JeetJeet
12.05.18 | Dude Apostle is fire. |
DungeonBoy
12.05.18 | @Lucca, I feel like people who appreciate atmospheric horror and overwhelming dread enjoyed Hereditary. Horror fans include people who just enjoy jump scare found footage movies too, and while I'm a fan of those, I appreciate what they did with Hereditary. It makes you feel absolutely terrible while watching it, and for that I give it a 5/5.
@Jeet, Heck yeah man, I watched it last night and my mind was blown. What a movie. |
DarkSideOfLucca
12.05.18 | @Dungeon - Ah, that makes sense |
BigBlob
12.05.18 | anyone seen Baskin? turkish film about policemen who find hell in the basement of an abandoned warehouse. freaky stuff |
butt.
12.05.18 | woah sounds awesome. heard of the name but that's it |
DungeonBoy
12.05.18 | Buttboy watch Mandy and report back. You can rent it for like 5 bucks on prime/Vudu/whatever else. I think you'll dig it. |
TheGreatQ
12.05.18 | I didn’t mean the Rosemary’s Baby comparison to say it was ripping it off, just that they were similar (there certainly are huge differences) and I didn’t like it in either movie.
Also forgot to mention this before but the cinematography was amazing even during the parts I wasn’t a fan of content-wise. |
TheGreatQ
12.05.18 | Also also, Baskin looks/sounds excellent |
BigBlob
12.05.18 | wait till you see the "bad guy" in it.... |
BigPleb
12.05.18 | Really great movie but the ending is very overblown and unsatisfying. |
DungeonBoy
12.05.18 | I'll check out Baskin tonight, thanks for the rec! |

12.05.18 | "The ending of the witch is hilariously bad."

DarkSideOfLucca
12.05.18 | "Hereditary and Mandy are my two favorites of the year." Bro, same.
Hereditary and The Witch are both two of my favorite horror movies of the past like 5 years or so, probably even longer. Ending to both movies rule, fight me bitches |
Nocturtle
12.05.18 | "Hereditary and The Witch are both two of my favorite horror movies of the past like 5 years or so, probably even longer. Ending to both movies rule, fight me bitches"
I like The Witch but that ending fucking sucks and no I won't fight you cuz based on your profile pic you're already ugly enough |
JeetJeet
12.05.18 | Smh the ending of The Witch is the best part |
butt.
12.05.18 | feel free to explain why the ending sucks (you're wrong but i'll at least give you a shot) |
Nocturtle
12.05.18 | I was trying to enjoy a horror movie not watch harry fucking potter |
Kalopsia
12.05.18 | lol nocturtle trollin hard.
waaaaah i'm mad a movie called "The Witch" had actual witches in it |
butt.
12.05.18 | h...harry potter? what? |
Nocturtle
12.05.18 | A girl watches her whole family get murdered and is scared half to death then instantly decides that she wants to join a coven of naked floating women? |
butt.
12.05.18 | sorry she didn't react the way a man would 320 years later with a modern understanding of witchcraft |
butt.
12.05.18 | I mean yo, it's a fucking story mate. God tells Eve bad shit will happen if she eats the apple, the the snake tempts her and tells her she will be more powerful than God if she eats it. It's a classic sotry. Tomissen had a talking goat tell her that she could live deliciously. So she's like...well I didn't even know goats could talk, and my whole family is dead, so what else do I have to live for |
Nocturtle
12.05.18 | How about you explain why you enjoyed the ending? |
DarkSideOfLucca
12.05.18 | @Nocturtle - Means a lot coming from someone who has "no picture" for a profile pic. |
Nocturtle
12.05.18 | I'm ugly af but at least I know it |
butt.
12.05.18 | I enjoyed it because they almost ended it with her falling asleep at the table. There was a long black pause, and I was reeeally hoping for a bigger ending. And then it comes back on, now at night time. I was fucking stoked. I wanted it to go full out cult/satanic. The visual of those ugly naked witches worshipping around the fire was sick, and the way she started floating up, laughing, then seamlessly turns to crying, was just fantastic. That last shot of her floating up in front of the trees (along with the terrifying music) really stuck with me. I felt fully gratified after that ending. Without it, everyone would have complained that the movie wasn't really about witches at all and just another family drama |
DarkSideOfLucca
12.05.18 | What Buttboy said
Also, I can't tell if you're just being a cunt Nocturtle lol |
JeetJeet
12.05.18 | Imagine not joining up with Hellgang after your whole family gets killed and a talking goat offers you a better life. |
Nocturtle
12.05.18 | Nope not being a cunt
1. You have cool lists
2. You are ugly af
3. You couldn't take a good selfie if your life depended on it
4. I am ugly af but realize it and don't embarrass myself with shitty selfies
5. Have a good day

DarkSideOfLucca
12.05.18 | "Nope not being a cunt "
I respectfully disagree |
Nocturtle
12.05.18 | Well maybe I am but I'm dropping hard troof bombs fam |
DarkSideOfLucca
12.05.18 | Lol, alright "fam." Glad you're enjoying the internet today with your trolling. |
Kalopsia
12.05.18 | Lucca is a 9/10 would bang |
DarkSideOfLucca
12.05.18 | Aw < 3 you da best |
Nocturtle
12.05.18 | @Kalopsia - Now thats what I call trolling |
DungeonBoy
12.06.18 | Just finished Baskin. It was... Ehhh a bit of a mixed bag. Some good, some okay, but overall glad I watched it |
Minushuman24
12.06.18 | It's pretty gosh darn good |
DinosaurJones
12.06.18 | There were parts of it that I liked, and parts I didn't. The person I was with slept through most of it, so she didn't exactly find it riveting. I'd probably give it like a 6/10. |
BigBlob
12.06.18 | the strange looking guy in Baskin looks like that in real life btw. no make up or effects used |
TheNotrap
12.06.18 | I need to watch this movie asap |
