I listened to the first four and will jam the last one in a bit. There is definitely a huge improvement from your last one to this one so keep it up with those remaining tracks!

Awesome, thanks! Anyway yeah, thread's about Warren of Ohms, not Taravana :P I was surprised by the direction you took on this. directions, actually. Makes for a great listen...it's varied without being incohesive. I didn't know you did that many instruments.

a horrible way to die, the signal (2007), house of the devil, the babadook (just came out this year actually), and the snowtown murders are all pretty great as far as lesser known horror movies go

i can post some more later if any come to mind those are just off the top of my head

the signal is also the only horror movie ive seen thats successful at actually being really funny at times without ruining the horror aspects so thats pretty cool too

Nah, any thread with me in it is bound to go off topic to random shit lol. This might be meant for discussion about my music but it will fill up with 30 pages of me talking about random bullshit just like the last review for my work!
When I initially started writing the album, I had planned for it to be very similar to Untitled in that it would be short bursts of crazy aggression but then the break up happened and it turned into a different beast entirely. I still have loads of songs that didn't make it to the record though because of how extensively I rewrote it.

The Babadook is being praised as one of the scariest movies ever. I definitely look forward to seeing it when I get the chance.

and apparently loads of WIP that you can reshape into something just as awesome ya? no shit, I just saw The Babadook a couple days ago. It's fucking great. I don't really get scared by movies but I really got into it...it's refreshingly different than most horror movies. Highly recommend.

and towards the end - or the middle if you're clever - you're all like OH...OOOOHHHH, I GET IT NOW! in that way that just feels so damn good. not like the "oh...I get it now." of The Village.

actually there are two of those moments in the Babadook, but the first time you're wrong.

Don't even talk about the Village, god

The ending is kind of... weird, but in both a good and bad way. It doesn't really do justice to anything that came before it, but in the same time you can tell it's a deliberate "fuck you" to the stereotypical horror movie endings of today (you know it is, action cuts to a few weeks later, the sun is shining, everything seems fine, then the bad guy pops up again and BAM the end) so that's nice. Still a fantastic film though

I dunno which moments you mean really pedro, I understood what was happening the whole way through, unless there was some revelation that I missed lol

yeah the babadook might honestly be like top 4 horror movies ever for me. the last 30 minutes especially literally had me in shock and covering my mouth for most of it

i think part of what was so impressive about it is that they managed to avoid using a single jumpscare in the whole thing like i think that really speaks to the type of scariness they were going for

Honestly the only thing that let it down was the animation I thought

It would've been so much better if they'd never shown the creature at all except in the illustrations cos the wings coming out of the darkness was lame af

but that's a tiny nitpick

and yeah Let the Right One In original was bloody brilliant, not only scary but more emotionally resonant than probably any other horror film ever made

**Spoiler alert**



@Rowan - there's the part where the mother is the Babadook, and then at the end you realize the Babadook represents the dead father and the family's inability to let him go. At least that was my interpretation.

let the right one in is like the perfect example of why horror movies that mix in elements of dramas will always be goat

Is it how you saw it? I thought it was clear that she was being possessed by it like the book said, I never thought she was actually the Babadook herself. The second point is a good one though - I loved the way the father's death was interwoven into the narrative and how the ending doesn't really provide any closure
