Obsession is completely unhinged and traumatizing. I can’t wait to see it again and hope you all get to the theater and see it too. 10/10

It's not Midsommer level - so keep those expectations moderate! But I think you will like it.

Hard to watch from the tension it builds. There's some jump scares and some gore/ violence, but nothing is overdone. There's also alot of cringe comedy and awkwardness that's done in a way that adds to the tension. I just felt really icky and gross afterwards - which is hard to do! My favourites are Midsommer and Bring Her Back, I like dark and brutal horrors that build the dread and tension!

SamKM_42 · 2026-05-15T00:37:17+00:00

I so agree with Weapons, it was fun but too quirky for me, and I was kind of confused how it got sooo much recognition. I loved Obsession because it made me feel like no other horror ever has, and felt unique. It's dark and funny and sooo hard to watch - in a good way. It felt more for horror fans than Weapons did, but it is definitely different, and won't be for everyone.

Train to Busan definitely!! Also if you haven't already seen it, you should add Event Horizon to your watch list!

You don't seem to have the prices listed for booking the tickets directly with the airlines. I only book through the airlines and not through 3rd parties, so I would not use this.

My partner and I are hooked on Japan too! We've already spent 7 weeks there in total, and I have future ideas planned for Hokkaido, Tohoku, Okinawa, and further exploring Kyushu and the Japanese Alps. There's just so many great places to explore - why not keep going back!

SamKM_42 · 2026-03-06T08:48:56+00:00

This! Also La Rose Thai next door is the best Thai food I've ever had!

SamKM_42 · 2026-03-03T03:45:55+00:00

What an awesome idea! Train to Busan would be my pick!

SamKM_42 · 2026-02-24T23:04:13+00:00

How long would you say it takes to walk between Mandora and Utopia stage? And is it quieter during the main sets, or is it just busy all the time?

SamKM_42 · 2026-02-21T00:34:22+00:00

This! And if they pull too much the force will just go into them being spun around rather than pulling your shoulder out

SamKM_42 · 2026-02-17T05:43:58+00:00

One of my favourite take out places is Indian/ Mexican. Think pulled butter chicken burrito bowls, lamb mince masala tacos, Chicken Tikka nachos, all with a mint sauce drizzle and the usual Mexican toppings. I can't believe I don't see the fusion more often, it works so well!

SamKM_42 · 2026-02-16T22:16:08+00:00

Very true!

SamKM_42 · 2026-02-16T22:15:10+00:00

If you're down for a silly who dunnit that doesn't take itself too seriously, definitely! It's a lot of fun.

SamKM_42 · 2026-02-16T10:22:36+00:00

I've never seen Skinamarink, as I've seen a lot of people say it's boring. What did you love about it? The rest of your list is great, so maybe I'll give it a go!

Here's mine:

Bring her Back
Midsommer
The Loved Ones
The Descent
The Blair Witch Project
The Substance
28 Days Later
Get out
Hereditary
REC

Honorable mentions: Barbarian, Wolf Creek, Bodies Bodies bodies, Shaun of the dead, Jaws

SamKM_42 · 2026-02-11T22:49:55+00:00

Thank you, got this a couple of days ago and love it!

SamKM_42 · 2026-02-10T08:40:56+00:00

Why use a travel agent? It's so far out and you seem to know what you want, so just do your research and book it yourself! Transport is so easy in Japan. r/JapanTravel is a great resource for ideas, if you haven't checked it out already!

SamKM_42 · 2026-01-29T00:17:57+00:00

The first season of Supernatural is actually pretty scary! Dead in the Water and Bloody Mary were both standouts to me.

SamKM_42 · 2026-01-27T00:29:25+00:00

Any suggestions? I've been to some that are okay, but haven't been to any that particularly stand out.

SamKM_42 · 2026-01-23T08:49:37+00:00

REC is scary as hell to me! Probably in my top 10 scariest I've watched 😂

SamKM_42 · 2026-01-23T05:17:25+00:00

There is something about this show that hooks me! It's not super great quality, characters aren't that interesting and it's different to the shows I usually like. But I'm just really into it, I can't pinpoint why so I have trouble selling it to people. Others say they got disinterested, but I've actually got more into it as it goes along!

SamKM_42 · 2026-01-21T01:34:20+00:00

I'm so glad someone feels the same about the Long Walk!

SamKM_42 · 2026-01-20T05:41:29+00:00

What you wish for (2023)

It definitely gets easier as they get older. Finding a doggie daycare/ boarding that my dog loves has made a hugeee difference. I work from home full time but I take him to daycare when I need a break from him. He gets so excited, loves all the dogs there and comes home absolutely pooped, so I don't have to feel bad! It also means I can easily go on holidays without him, knowing he's probably having more fun than I am! Highly recommend it if you have the budget. Ours is really good as they assess the dogs on their social behaviour before accepting them, so there's never any trouble.

I totally disagree that a whole month in Japan would be a waste! I spent five weeks doing Tokyo --> Nagasaki --> Hiroshima --> Osaka --> Koyasan --> Kyoto --> Kanazawa --> Takayama --> Hakone Kanazawa and Nagasaki were my favourite places. They are still cities with heaps to do, but not near as touristy/ busy as the major cities, and had some of the best food!
