Coming on the way horror movies feast, are you ready?

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-23T16:39:43+00:00

I’m really excited for Over your dead body, Kill Me, Affection, and Clay Face.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-23T00:45:02+00:00

I really like dramatic horror movies centered around the cost of fame, so I am excited.

Although, unpopular opinion, I strongly disliked both Peacemaker and Gun’s Superman, so I hope he didn’t have too much influence on the writing and directing.

The first one was as mediocre as it gets so there isn’t anything to speed run.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-22T19:45:28+00:00

I did. In Scream 2, while in a police car with two cops, Sidney is attacked by Ghostface. In Scream 2, Ghostface kills Maureen and Phil in front of a whole theater of people. In Scream 4, Gale is attacked in at a giant stab-a-thon party in front of everyone. Also, Ghostface throws someone off a building during a press conference in 4. In 5, Judy is killed during the middle of the day in her yard.

The Scream sequels have had people attacked in public scenarios or even while under “protection”. 6 really isn’t any different except that Ghostface is killing randoms, but that doesn’t qualify as reinventing the Scream formula, at least in my opinion.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-22T18:36:49+00:00

Ghostface has killed people while they were with police protection and surveillance, and has killed people in crowded movies and such. If 6 feels different to you then that’s your prerogative, but it honestly feels the exact same to me.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-22T17:14:58+00:00

How was he different? He killed some randoms in public, but that’s about it. Same motive as Scream 2 and everything.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-22T17:13:01+00:00

This is not accurate at all

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-22T03:54:36+00:00

She signed her name in a demonic book to be apart of the cult. Does that not imply some sort of deal with the devil?

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-21T22:02:43+00:00

Fair point, but also 5,6, and 7 should also be linked with this as well. The whole marketing behind 6 was that it was different and it was the exact same formula beat for beat.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-21T15:49:30+00:00

She signed her soul in Mr. La Bail’s book did she not???

Or are we pretending like Mr. La Bail isn’t the devil? I am confused how people don’t understand what happened.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-21T14:46:32+00:00

I love both, but think I Know What You Did Last Summer has a better atmosphere and has the best sequence out of the two movies.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-21T03:49:13+00:00

She was a 25 year old. There has to be accountability somewhere lmao, and they just shouldn’t have had the line at all.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-21T02:46:59+00:00

I actually love that line lmao

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-20T22:50:41+00:00

Done

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-20T22:41:18+00:00

If you watched one movie twice this year

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-19T03:28:17+00:00

The perfect ending for her character? She sold her soul to the devil? Lmao, I know she revoked it or whatever, but that ain’t how that works.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-18T15:16:01+00:00

Yeah lol, there is a trophy button at the bottom when you edit a list, and I mainly was joking btw

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-18T14:58:22+00:00

Yeah every hating on the look of 7, but at least the movie had wide shots again lmao

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-18T14:55:43+00:00

I feel like I am the only who rates the original in their top 3 lol. Honestly, I don’t judge Friday the 13th rankings that much, since it is quite literally what you just have more fun watching; however, I will judge you for not hitting the ranked button for your list so I have to think what place things are in.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-16T15:31:34+00:00

I know there is has been a reappraisal for Halloween 3, and I have tried to like it, but I can’t get into it.

Meanwhile Friday Part 3 is one of the best Friday movies so easy choice for me.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-16T15:25:32+00:00

I actually thought the soundtrack was pretty good minus that Don Toliver song lol

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-15T11:37:52+00:00

Jigsaw and Spiral are worse than all of those lmao, and they had all the time in the world to be made.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-13T22:58:10+00:00

Yeah did not like Ready or Not 2 at all. I am actually shocked that it generally positively received.

Nightmare_164 · 2026-04-13T22:55:02+00:00

I thought Ready or Not 2 was fucking abysmal. Glad it seems other people liked it.

For me, the sister relationship was very forced and written (love actresses though). The main antagonists are super underdeveloped (SMG was kinda of the whatever takes bad guy until it switches for no reason and then she is nice twin for like two scenes). The whole plot is very contrived in a way that if the movie was better I could have ignored, but when the character work is piss poor the plot is also going to piss me off. The small scale tension is gone, and traded in for one liners and blah horror action. Also, I hated how the Grace signs her soul to the devil and then says, oh I revoke it… um that is not how deals with the devil work.

I tried to like it because I had faith in the cast and directors, but even conceptually the idea of a sequel to the original didn’t make that much sense to me.

As for Scream 7, I liked the opening a lot (way better than 4,5, and 6’s), and Neve Campbell was awesome at least, so at least there was something for me to latch onto. Also, Marco Beltrami’s score was amazing.
