The mirror reveal that everybody else in the room is a vampire is awesome

Finding the best use of the word "fuck" in a PG-13 movie is an artform

Threw on Sharkansas Women's Prison Massacre (2015) earlier and wanted to shout out this one really good VFX shot that totally caught me off guard:

Michael Myers cautiously looking both ways before making a turn always puts a little smile on my face.

No joke, the webcam version of Halloween: Resurrection is in my Top 5 Found Footage movies

Something magical about watching an old B-Movie and the smallest part in the film is played by someone who’s about to get stupid famous

I know my reputation on here is dangerously close to solely being hyping up terrible movies and saying they're better than new movies because they're too gray but... I like this famously terrible movie and think it's better than all the new gray slop.

Must have seen Who Framed Roger Rabbit dozens of times and never noticed the shimmering red glow from Jessica’s dress on Hoskins’ face. That movie is a miracle.

She has an out of nowhere reaction shot in Eating Out 5 that made me laugh so hard I couldn’t breathe the first time I saw it

I love you, Deleted Scenes Brenda

Genuinely think there's a correlation between how much somebody's willing to get beat up in a horror movie and how successful they'll be in the industry. Could tell Samara Weaving was gonna be a star after Ash vs. Evil Dead.

Van Helsing is great. I’m sorry but it’s true

I wish Stephen King had directed more movies

I do miss when trailers used to be fun

Sensitive content

Love how many episodes of THE HAUNTING HOUR ended with kids dying, implied dying, or getting trapped forever somewhere awful.

Watching A Nightmare on Elm Street 4 on VHS just so I can see a little bit more of the junkyard planet matte painting

James Wan will not simply cut to another shot if there’s an opportunity for an elaborate match fade:

Brenda also dies in the deleted scenes of 2 (not that that counts)

Watch Anya Live

There's a 78 second shot in The Texas Chain Saw Massacre of Franklin struggling to get into the house while his friends are all having fun upstairs where you can see his frustration and isolation turn his sadness into anger and I think it's the most important shot of the film

When a Vampire Movie is a practical effects Creature Feature too 🖤

Almost caught off guard when an old show on streaming HASN’T had all of its needledrops replaced with generic stock music

I still remember being 9 in the theater and getting so existentially frightened by this bit. Couldn’t stop thinking about it the rest of the movie.

The vampires in Children of the Night sleep in mucus cocoons with their lungs on the outside and I love that shit.

It’s not Christmas until Christina Ricci gets a toothpick in the eye

The guy deciding to f*** a Gremlin at the end of Gremlins 2 always gets me

Shout Factory is censoring their movies now?

This stuff was more convincing 40 years ago

Still remember screaming the first time I saw this

Over-the-top delivery, but with total conviction and authenticity. A lot of people don’t understand that the latter is necessary for good “camp”

It’s fun that the bucket in the 2002 adaptation of CARRIE can hold like 100 gallons of blood.

The joy I feel when an old movie cuts to a toy car on a miniature set for driving shots

Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy still has my all time favorite "Wish Gone Wrong" Monkey's Paw sequence:

Oh the new End Credits music for the King of the Hill reboot is gorgeous

Can't stress enough that the extremely rewatchable slasher movies that became classics did so, in large part, because their locations were so well established, thus creating an environment audiences want to come back to. Shots were wider with a bunch of mini tracking shots.

The killer polyhedron in DEMON SEED is ridiculously cool. Still never seen anything like it in another movie.

See how there's technically less light in this shot, but it's easier to make out because the shadows are dark and the highlights are bright? Isn't that nice? Why do new movies/shows hate contrast so much? Because the lighting has to be motivated?

Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer's ending is evil and makes me sick to my stomach whenever I'm reminded of it (a compliment)

Not doing an Oz: The Great and Powerful reappraisal but I do love that the second half is basically Army of Darkness with Wizard of Oz characters
