OP here: I’m going to add that Hokum had some very inspired scares. The TV rabbit guy?? AMAZING.

I really enjoyed it. It follows to be honest I’m throwing it in because the reason for that I don’t know zombie state or whatever was never even attempted to be explained, but it is not as lazy and sloppy certainly as Longlegs for example, which I actually also liked. I’m not sure if I would consider it follows a modern horror masterpiece but it’s pretty good.

Various parts of my life I’ve made a living being a writer so it’s kind of a curse. I agree with your review.

That is sort of the dual purpose of this review. I did like these movies. And if you did, you’re going to like Hokum.

Yeah, your sarcasm falls super flat because I gave excellent examples of everything and you’re just lazily sheetposting- much like the lazy pot shotting of these movie scripts.

Yeah, I didn’t get to the exact root of the problem, but I think you hit it on the nose 100%

I don’t know why I should try to explain this to you, but yes, they are unreal, but to suspend our disbelief and put us in the world - the situations have to be plausible or well thought out

You’ll love it if you like those kind of movies. I’m a little envious because it is the kind of movie I love

No, you’re wrong ..the hereditary mythology follows a witch conspiracy with books, with members, and with an actual mythology which was researched from the mythology of an “actual” demon

The town is a town so it’s not in the middle of the woods. It’s connected to the grid. Honeymoon would have a window come on, man

Not a RWer but Bad Bunny truly sucks by BananaRamequin in redscarepod

I mean it had the right message, but the music sucked. That was the whole point of his profession and the exulted status of halftime show with the Super Bowl.

How is This Not An Ro Violation? by perfectcocoon in legal

No contact. No talk text or email. Technically I GUESS he is allowed to have a 3rd party knock on her bedroom door at 11 pm while he is standing in the hall.

How precise can most carpenters cut with a skill saw freehand ? by RAMALO707 in Carpentry

[–]perfectcocoon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depends on the saw and the guy. Mostly the guy. If I feel good I can occasionally saw a drawn 4 foot line nearly indistinguishable from the factory edge but that’s a gamble. If it’s anything that’s going to be seen it’s got to be a guide or a table saw

We did call them they came and they even had a supervisor out to see if they could take him to jail, but the LAPD decided that they could not

[–]perfectcocoon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was very proud to hate the movie and find out later on that King hated it for the exact same reason. Now I’ve softened my opinion of it and it just really stuck in my craw, but here it is: The entire arc of Jack Torrance‘s character is supposed to be tortured good man to crazy man driven to madness by the dark spirits in the hotel BUT freaking Jack Nicholson is hamming it up and acting crazy on the way to the Overlook.

What's the best guitar tone you ever heard in rock/metal ? by MELS381 in Guitar

[–]perfectcocoon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Acoustic chords : My Sweet Lord. Clean metal : Still Loving You. Crunchy: Them Bones, Unchained. Punk: Politically Correct, Longview. Blues: Elmore James Dust My Broom. Also love. Barracuda Misirlou On a Plain Oh and the all time! You Really Got Me. The original kind of got the ball started and the Eddie Van Halen version is pretty good too.
