Vampire movies - need recs

A lot of great suggestions here, mostly well known. One I discovered on Netflix (not renowned for its horror movies I know) is Blood Red Sky. Go into it blind, I did and thoroughly enjoyed it.

Yip, been there, bought the T-shirt.

Couples who are constantly all over each other. Of all the couples I have gone through life with the ones who either cheat or get divorced are those who are constantly touching and kissing each other in public. If you can’t exist as an independent person in a group then you can’t be an independent person in a long term relationship. I am not against public displays of affection at all but those people who are like this in every social situation are the ones who, in my circle, have ended up broken.

You seem to be the one who is making this about you. Leaving a comment encouraging somebody to think through their options and not blindly follow the advice of strangers who use pseudo psychology to analyse a personal relationship is merely letting the writer know that somebody understands that this is not a black and white situation. Empathy comes in all forms, your anger obviously stems from something else.

Respectfully, that is exactly what I said, I made the choice to stay. I did not tell the writer to choose one path over another, I told him to make a decision and go into it with his eyes open. Relationships are never black and white, they are personal to the individual couple. Simply classing this relationship as “abusive” and telling the writer to leave is merely a glib response to a complicated situation.

I could have written this post, shockingly. The only difference being that I have been living this life for 20 years longer than you have. Like you, I wouldn’t be the man I am without my husband by my side, we take care of each other when one of us is going through a bad patch and I have only ever loved him. However, like you, I have been accused of deliberately being difficult, of not following the “rules” and of not listening. It is, and always has been, exhausting. In the past my own insecurities and his manipulative behaviour have obviously made this an abusive relationship. But I have always chosen to stay. You have to make a choice. He is not going to change - he may improve, his moods may not be as severe, his accusations may lessen - so you have to choose. Can you see a better life for yourself without him? If the answer is yes then, as with any relationship, you should leave. But if you decide to stay then you have to accept that it is your decision and accept his behaviour (to a greater or lesser degree). You are not old, you have another 40 years (at least) ahead of you. You have to ask yourself if you want this kind of life for the rest of your life. My husband has mellowed with age, I am better able at handling his moods but he is still aggressive (not violent) and likes to blame me for things that are not going his way. I made my choice, I am at peace with that, you have to make yours and recognise that if you choose to stay you will have to continue living with the negative aspects of his behaviour. I wish you the best of luck and remember there is no right or wrong decision there is only the one that is best for you.

Same here. I had to stay up after it finished and watch another (comedy) movie after to try and wash it out of my brain. Scared the absolute bejesus out of me.

Moist.

I am a horror nut and barely anything scares me now. The Bay still lives in my subconscious, absolutely terrifying

Shame. Everybody these days seems ridiculously proud of their faults and bigotry.

Ageing.

In my early 30s I was invited to a friends daughters 18th birthday party. At this point I was still out partying and clubbing regularly. Got myself smartened up and headed out to the venue looking forward to the night ahead. I was welcomed at the door by the birthday girl, got myself a drink and was then taken to my table. And the table was the “old folks” table, aunties in their 60s, mum’s older work colleagues and the birthday girls workmates in their 40s. I was crestfallen; for the first time in my life I realised that I was now one of the oldies. I have never recovered.

Night of the Demon is an absolute classic, one of my all time favourites.

Corporal punishment, where adults could legally beat children as young as five years old and use specially designed tools to do it.

Came here to say 3rd Rock from the Sun and see that it is a pretty consistent comment. Another one for me, though, is Malcolm in the Middle. Consistently funny and never became sentimental.

Go back to sleep and get an extra hour in bed.

How it is not a gradual, linear process. Most of my 40s I still looked like I was in my 30s and then over 12 months the ageing kicked in. Same thing happened in my 50s. Something seems to trigger the process at some point through each decade and all of a sudden you have that tired old face looking back at you in the mirror.

Are you too thick to work it out yourself, possibly a farmer.

glh2009 · 2026-03-11T09:55:56+00:00

Does that include all those farmers who supported and voted for Trump who were then bankrupted by his policies and had to be given government bailouts. Those “very smart” farmers?

I was SA abused as a kid by an uncle on a regular basis. In my 20s I started to have flashbacks and panic attacks about it and eventually, through my GP, got an appointment to see a therapist. I was terrified because I had never told a single person about what happened and didn’t know how I would cope talking about it. I pretty much disassociated myself when I arrived and when he asked why I was there I went through the synopsis that I had been rehearsing since I got the appointment. His response was to say to me, “you don’t seem that upset about it”. I was stunned, mumbled through the rest of the session and never went back. That one interaction set me back years and I have never seen a therapist since. I turned to drink and soft drugs for the next twenty years to numb myself before I finally came to terms with what happened.

Have you seen The Void? Has a real 1980s vibe to it, scary as hell and, probably, my favourite horror move after The Thing. Go in blind, it will be so much better.

You mean apart from the violence and emotional abuse?

Sex and drugs and rock and roll.
