Update for Movie suggestions

I've been enjoying this series on HBO Max.

Interview with the Vampire (TV Series 2022– ) ⭐ 7.2 | Drama, Fantasy, Horror

 

Jeez you couldnt even enjoy a movie with naked Scar Jo. Suspiria and the remake were good IMO, but Argento / giallo horror isn't for everyone.

 

If you thought the movie had a gay subtext ... well they just made it text for this one (its my understanding that is more true to the books)

 

Yeah, I feared from some of the reviews that it was going to focus almost exclusively on that. It's definitely a theme but a lot of other things going on too. The frequency and duration of their feeding on people seems a bit over the top though lol. I guess the equivalent of being a drunk.

 

I saw under the skin as well. I wanted to like it but thought it was too much work figuring out what was going on and it was dreadfully slow. I liked Ex Machina way better as something in that vein that had a higher entertainment factor.

 

Some older ones there but Barbarian was a cool surprise recently.

 

I watched the first couple episodes when I still had cable, I might pick it up now that I dont have to deal with ads and such.

 

Did you ever watch True Blood? Similar vibes in some ways, though less gothic. I liked the first few seasons, but it kind of got tired after awhile.

 

All that directors movies are kinda like that. Sexy Beast is good, but also a little art house. Birth was one of the most LOL/disturbing scenes ever, I'm glad I saw that in the theater to see people react haha.

 

Oh yeah. It got a little crazy(er) after a point but I was hooked and stuck with it till the end. I was just thinking the actor who played Lafayette passed away a year or two ago but looked and that was 2017.

 

Just watched "The Big Short" on Netflix. One would think it's an absolute snoozer of a subject to create a full-length film (the subprime bubble pop). It was surprisingly well done, under the radar hilarious with an all-star cast.

 

Ooh, we’re doing horror movies now?

First, I would like to second @wgbgator’s recommendation of It Follows. So good.

A couple of small sci-fi horror gems: Coherence and The Endless. Both great.

The Invitation is a great slow burn horror.

My classic recommendation is Don’t Look Now. Nick Roeg directs Donald Sutherland. Affecting and creepy.

I love Let the Right One In. The American remake Let Me In is good too, but I think the Swedish original is flat out excellent.

 

For all you perverts out there Don’t Look Now has maybe the most convincing sex scene in a movie I’ve ever seen.

 

Oh yeah, After Midnight. I do love that movie. It actually stars the two guys that made The Endless, Benson and Moorhead. Those two have a newer movie, Something in the Dirt, but I haven’t yet checked it out.

And coherence is worth it.

 

Even better than in "trainwreck?"

 

why you being judgy? So which service is don’t look now ?

 

Well Trainwreck doesn't have a Wikipedia section called "Sex Scene Controversy," and I barely remember anything that happens in that movie other than Lebron James showing up

 

Nvm, the joke was apparently too old.

Amy Schumer joked that John Cena was 'actually inside her' when they filmed sex scene
