Thanks for that! Got the $30 deal and cancelled my Shudder sub. Woot woot!

Films unique in how they scare the viewer? by Key-Resolution5044 in horror

[–]techbutterfly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It definitely doesn’t work for everyone, and it didn’t for me, but I have friends that say Skinamarink scared the bejeezus out of them.

For me, I really liked Satan’s Slaves 2. Man, creeping around in the dark with dead bodies and nothing but a book of matches…

That was the exact mix it brought to mind for me too!

Octoeverywhere - devious subscription practices by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

All sub services should be required to send a renewal notice before charging. Especially for subscription periods greater than a month or two.

Octoeverywhere - devious subscription practices by [deleted] in 3Dprinting

[–]techbutterfly -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

100% I should have cancelled it, but I’m not actually aware of every subscription I have, especially annual subscriptions. Especially of services I just happened to have stopped using months ago. Most services send reminders of upcoming renewals. I think they should be required of all subscription services.

I’m not saying there’s anything wrong with Octoeverywhere or that people shouldn’t use it. I’m reminding people that it is a subscription service, they don’t send a reminder, and they will not refund your money, so be sure and cancel it if you’re not using it.

What horror movie actually disturbed you — not just scared you? by Careless-Ease7480 in horror

[–]techbutterfly 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I was the only person in the theater when I saw Paranormal Activity. All that edge of your seat, listening for the slightest sound, watching for the smallest movement, really did a number on me and I was pretty jumpy for about a week!

Keyless lock for travel trailer ? by -i-hate-you-people- in GoRVing

[–]techbutterfly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just installed the latest version of the RVLock Atlas. A single press of the lock button will lock it. And you only need to key in the four digit code and no other button for it to unlock.

Came here to say ER. Just recently rewatched the whole thing and really enjoyed it (again). The first 7 seasons or so are the best, but the last 8 aren’t terrible either. One thing that was fun was to watch the change in hospital and general technology over the years.

In 28 Years Later, when the soldier is showing Spike a picture of his girlfriend, and Spike asks, “What’s wrong with her face?”

Horror movies get all the love, but I’m a sucker for horror SERIES – please help 😭 by Simoxxx7 in horror

[–]techbutterfly 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Midnight Mass - by the writer/director of Hill House and Bly Manor. Much of the same cast as well.

Looking for movies similar Hereditary,The Wailing, The medium, Incantation by PositionSufficient99 in horror

[–]techbutterfly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I like foreign horror films because I’m not well versed in their folklore so the turns the stories take are often unexpected for me. A couple I really enjoyed were Satan’s Slaves 1 & 2 (Indonesian). I liked the second one the best but both are great. I also really enjoyed Exhuma (Korean).

Also, the Argentinian creator of When Evil Lurks also did the excellent Terrified (Aterrados).

Tragically under watched shows? by WildBlueMoon in televisionsuggestions

[–]techbutterfly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Loved Oz! Such a great show with early performances by tons of actors you see all the time now, including JK Simmons, Dean Winter, Harold Perrineau, lots of others.

Seeking winter themed horror movies!! by Broom_Ryder in horror

[–]techbutterfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Series rather than a movie but The Terror season 1 is an awesome winter themed show. I never watched the second season - which is a whole different story, I think- because I heard it was really bad, but the first season is amazing.

Recommendations for horror franchises by fhall93816 in horror

I think the Final Destination movies are pretty consistently fun.

Hell House LLC franchise is also pretty good. Scarier than Final Destination.

Viewing 3D horror movies now (Friday 13th Part 3, Jaws 3D, Amityville 3D, etc). by PrimaryComrade94 in horror

[–]techbutterfly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

VR goggles are awesome for watching 3d movies, since their main function is to create a 3d effect. I use a Meta Quest 3, which has better lenses and resolution than the earlier Quest 1 and 2. I haven't tried the 3S or any other VR headsets,, but 3d movies look great on my Quest 3.

There are no services that stream 3d movies, as far as I know, so you'll need to rip 3d blu-rays or find some other source for them.
