With The Exorcist Martyrs you'd hope that Blumhouse would have seen from the success of Obsession that you don't have to be CGI silly to make something good. (Post Other Mommy). There's a grain of good possibilities in that trailer.
Adoro cada una de las escenas de asesinato de Mil Gritos Tiene La Noche. Es absolutamente fascinante la puesta en escena y el trabajo de efectos especiales y maquillaje en este icono del cine de terror español.
Un poco de slasher, un poco de giallo para ir colocando las piezas.
Watched Antonioni's Blow Up after many, many years. It's incredible. Always been a massive fan of The Passenger but forgot about this one. It's not the film you think it is.
I still think about Backrooms y'know. The sadness. The melancholy of empty rooms of piled up furniture. Post life. Remnants. Installations of regret. It tapped into some real horror. Not the daft pirate chase.
Other Mommy seems to be yet another non-horror 'horror' for the easily impressed. The only scary thing being Jessica Chastain's rapid relegation to the second division.
@sethsfilmreview@BFI It's always been cack - even for members. You clearly need to be a major donor to get what you want. I fucked it off years ago due to this.
Why are movies so bad? One hates to say it comes down to the success of Steven Spielberg, but...It’s not so much what Spielberg has done as what he has encouraged. Everyone else has imitated his fantasies, and the result is an infantilization of the culture. (1985)
