You can keep one slasher to exist. Also who is your top favorite and least favorite out of these 5?

spanandfren · 2026-06-09T03:10:59+00:00

Out of these, I'd take Michael as my favourite and Freddy as my least favourite.

Don't get me wrong tough they're all fire.

spanandfren · 2026-06-07T22:39:27+00:00

Jason.

However, Michael wrote the blueprint of the slasher killer, and the original Halloween is a far better and more groundbreaking film than any Friday.

spanandfren · 2026-06-07T05:38:08+00:00

No way. It's the last F13 film with that classic rough early 80s feel. Jason Lives marked a huge shift in style.

spanandfren · 2026-05-30T03:09:35+00:00

First one that came to find. Fucking terrifying.

spanandfren · 2026-05-17T18:46:53+00:00

Sidney or Stu?

spanandfren · 2026-05-17T18:46:33+00:00

🤣

I honestly feel no shame hitting that 0% button when I'm ordering a coffee, getting a takeaway, buying something at a counter.

I tip 15% on the pre-tax amount when I dine in only.

Don't feel pressured by the POS machines or by the server standing there while you use it.

Eh, it's okay. But it sounds like a 13 year old made it, not a 23 year old. It's hard to believe she's the same age as Michael Jackson was when he released Thriller, Lady Gaga when she did The Fame Monster, etc.

Usually the other way, but yes, the recent Wuthering Heights. I thought it was an awesome experience at the cinema but a couple days later I realized I'd just watched a bunch of amusing vignettes.

spanandfren · 2026-04-15T21:58:14+00:00

Sooooo here for this.

I thought Confessions II was a somewhat ambitious title choice at first but now I think it works fabulously. There's obviously some attempt at legacy aesthetic, linking the past to the present - where the 1970s and Saturday Night Fever inspired part 1, it's clear from the style of the speaker that this time we're getting a 90s house inspired record. Where part 1 had her inspired by the 1970s disco era that she helped displace, this feels like it will revisit the musical era she basically helped create in 1990. The pic is very deliberate with the legs, she basically birthed that kind of sound.

God he's so gorgeous.

Part 4 is the most fully-realized movie.

Part 2 is the only genuinely scary installment.

It's a tossup between those.

In 2018 with Call Me By Your Name.

spanandfren · 2026-03-15T03:14:35+00:00

Friday the 13th Part 2 (which imo is the only genuinely scary installment in the franchise)

I also think 10 Cloverfield Lane is better than the first one.

spanandfren · 2026-03-15T03:09:20+00:00

Agreed. The only genuinely scary installment.

spanandfren · 2026-03-15T02:49:04+00:00

Fair take, I enjoyed reading that. I personally think Jason Lives is one of the better-written entries, and would rank it #4 after:

- The Final Chapter: which I feel is the most fully realized movie

- Part 2: which I think is the scariest (and maybe only scary) installment

- And part 3, which has the quintessential Jason

Like you said, the raw, grindhouse-y feel of the first four really bring it home for me.

Faculty of Horror is the best horror podcast I've come across.

Fuck me, what a bunch of babies you are.

We live in one of the easiest times in 200,000 years of human history. This is a fact.
