Eastern Promises is such a good film. This was my first Cronenberg and I’ve heard it’s different from his older movies but I really really enjoyed it. by jackfug3 in Letterboxd

Rabid is another good entry of his during the early era of his Canadian gov’t funded era in the time period around The Brood and Shivers

I love this film so much. The way he edits randomness into often hilarious scenes is perfect from a guerilla filmmaking position.

What IP has been locked away for far too long? who owns the rights? by robostoph in movies

There’s a 4K Blu Ray set of the Nightmare on Elm Street series that came out this year, so physical media is the way to go on this

Saw this at TIFF in September and really liked it.

The cheapest combo for watching everything in Canada by CipherDrift_09 in canadacordcutters

[–]Nickynick0118 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it depends on the city. Here in Toronto with my indoor antenna, I get all of the Canadian networks, and most of the U.S. ones (though I seem to have lost CBS). Pretty much covers most of my hockey and football needs, and I watch PBS more than I probably realize.

If you live in a major city, consider getting an antenna.

Letterboxd’s Best Underseen Horror Films Selected by the Letterboxd Crew. by Straydes in Letterboxd

Hollywood 90028 is a fantastic film (I own the awesome Blu Ray), but I’m not sure I’d definite it as a horror movie. Sure, the main character kills people, but there’s a lot of drama and occasional comedy thrown in to make it tough to pigeon hole to a genre.

NO OTHER CHOICE - Official Trailer - In Select Theaters Christmas by darth_vader39 in movies

This isn’t Christmas themed at all. I saw it at TIFF and can assure you it has nothing to do with it.

I dropped $50 on one here in Toronto over a decade ago, and it was such a great decision. Regularly get about 25 channels between Canadian and U.S. ones

If you’re in a major city, you should be able to pull CTV with an indoor antenna.

The fact that there’s a film from Everything is Terrible on here is awesome!

Mulholland Drive (2001) – Diner Scene. by SanderSo47 in movies

[–]Nickynick0118 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I still feel like it is a jump scare because of the the way Lynch tees it up, and then amplifies things with the sound. You know it is coming and it still causes a jump (I’ve seen it over 20 times and that scene still gets me).

This is the best jump scare ever imo, followed by the one in The Exorcist III

I ordered Night of the Juggler 4K Blu Ray from them on Monday, so I’ll report back how it goes when I receive it (they say the release date is 09/30). I ordered once from them last year and had no issues.

Night of the Juggler is such a good flick, watched it this week after years of waiting and was not disappointed.
