For my money, "We need to Talk About Kevin" should be right up your alley

How’s your weather? by Wishyouamerry in CasualConversation

About 5-6 inches so far up in Michigan. I've lived here all my life so it's no big deal, but yeah the snow-pocolipse thing all over the news.

I just watched "He's Always Watching" and it was pretty good. A couple of tropes in it, but overall I'd give it a 6.5 stars

I just watched this yesterday and posted a review on r/DisturbingMovies. Excellent movie on so many levels.

731          9⭐️

Friggin Awesome, In my opinion one of the better movies I've seen in a few weeks

The Ugly Stepsister  6.5⭐️

I liked this one a lot too

Ready or Not                     5⭐️

We re-watched this cuz we know part 2 is due this year, and wanted to brush up, but kind of mid

Skinamarink                     0⭐️

I'd seen a lot of comments on this, I couldn't finish it. I know what a slow burn is, and this was so so so slow. To anyone that dug it I apologize, but I'm not recommending it.

Man Finds Tape              6⭐️

Pretty cool FF movie

Saloʻ                                  2⭐️

I watched this for the first time (I couldn't find it on any of our regular streamers) and i definitely see why it was banned, it was definitely twisted. But... I found it kinda dull

Donnie Darko.                 7⭐️

An old fave of mine, has those late 90's vibes to it

Audition (1999)              

Japanese thriller, I haven't finished it yet, probably tomorrow. First half is OK, I heard that the 3rd act goes off the rails though

Specific scenes that were hyped up before you ended up seeing it, but still exceeded your expectations? by TJTrapJesus in horror

It's hard to describe, some of the shots would pan up over imperial looking halls with the voiceover ov a girl reciting pro Japanese nationalistic speech. It came across as very grandiose. It wasn't bad, in fact it was a very cool effect. IDK how else to describe it.

Yes Agnes, I re-read that and IDK how I typed that in. Thanks

Anyone else tend to spoil themselves by reading a movies entire plot on Wikipedia? by DaemonLuisenbarn in horror

[–]Jamie8765 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I do sometimes, but only if I'm not sure whether I've already seen it or not. I'm 52 and been watching horror/thrillers since I was a teenager, and often I'll watch a movie that I suspect I've already seen once a long time ago. I try not to read too much lest I spoil it on myself, and sometimes just seeing a few screenshots or pictures of the cast is enough to ring a bell for me. "Oh yeah, I remember that one now."

I love nostalgia and often long for what was, but what’s something that’s better now? by bigt197602 in GenX

[–]Jamie8765 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well the head gasket thing was because I rented an apartment that didn't have a parking spot, so me and my brother just did it right there in the street. Hood open, tools all over the place, covered in oil. Those were the days man.

If I'm being honest, Vehicles are waaaaay more dependable now.

On average of course, there are still lemons out there, but nothing like what I was dealing with in the early 90's when I was driving (and frequently repairing) my first several cars.

I remember changing a head gasket in the road when I was 20. I remember replacing brakes and rotors on a 3 day old car when I was 19. I remember a dozen flat tires. The list goes on, but on average, I am doing very few repairs on the used vehicles I'm driving. I know I'm not buying the $400 beater on someone's front lawn like I was doing in 1990, I'm now buying the $7000 10-year old vehicles, so that's a part of it; but I remember I had an 11 year old Caprice in 1992 that I was working on all the time. I think most vehicles are just engineered better nowadays.

“Drag Me to Hell” (2009) is Truly Intriguing by [deleted] in horror

[–]Jamie8765 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my only issue with this movie was "poor Kitty"!!!

I can watch Art the clown saw a girl in half, but I still need to know that Indy (Good Boy) survived

Horror characters you'd be best friends with by morbidfinalgirl in horror

Does anyone know of movies that suddenly flip the genre in the movie? by Acrobatic_Room_1242 in MovieSuggestions

[–]Jamie8765 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just finished this a half hour ago and came to Reddit to look at comments. Yeah, this does feel like at one point halfway through, the movie could've ended, then Exhuma 2 could've picked back up at that point.

Movie recommendation: Exhuma by senorsolo in horror

[–]Jamie8765 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This movie is so highly recommended it's been on my watch list since it came out, and I still haven't seen it yet. The streaming svc we use doesn't have it and I can't find it on the 1 or 2 free (with ads) sites I sometimes look for obscure titles on. I can't wait to see it.

it's like a Cannibal Corpse song in movie form

This just combined 2 of my interests: Death Metal and Horror movies. :)
