(Wanted......Brimstone Lap)
Male Hearth....one day🤞Dream on.I started watching In the Tall Grass…they were losing me until they started messing with space and time…i am going to have to start over and watch it again. It totally has a “children of the corn” vibe.
Wanted: "Dragon Fruit" Male Dragon ~ "Fire Berry", "Paradise", "Dragon Fruit", "Tie Dye" ~ The brighter, the better!
Watched all 3 seasons of Stranger Things in several binges over the past few weeks, I really enjoyed that one.
Has anyone been so see the new Joker yet? I keep hearing great things about it.

Not because I wanted to see it, but because a couple of friends were going and wanted me to hang with them lol also a couple of the guys we normally hang out with DIDN’T want to see it because it portrays a very real mental illness situation.
That movie… gave me so much anxiety (and I’m not a person that generally has issues with movies. I.e I can watch any horror movie without anything triggering my anxiety). In general, I just didn’t like it. One of my friends said it was “eh, so-so” and the other said “It was okay”.
It’s interesting how some people are hearing “great things” but others are only hearing “bad things”. For me, I had only heard bad things about the movie. Same with one of the friends I went with (but he’s a big movie person, and he wants to give every movie a chance).
Also I’m pretty sure Joker always wore a purple suit… but this suit is a weird maroon that just looked off.
Also the laughing… I know it’s him and all but it always went on for that second too long to make it go from “okay” to “really uncomfortable” (anyone know what I’m talking about? Something can only go on for x amount of seconds before you’re squirming in your seat and suddenly angry/uncomfortable). Maybe that’s what they were going for? Not something I like.Hmmm good to know. I did hear a lot of remarks about the laughing. Some that it was real good, but not Mark Hamill and some that it was just really creepy.
It’s important that people know it’s not a “batman movie” and it’s supposed to be a real drama sold as a stand alone drama, real life portrayal scenario of “what is joker was real, and what would happen/what would it take for him to actually be real?” sort of telling. It’s probably the mental illness perspective that is getting all the good reviews since that is one of societies hot button issues right now… like if you did a real movie about an opioid pandemic it would be an emmy award winning performance to see a junkie convulsing on the floor when it should really be more of a scary wake up call then an inspiring performance…. so I do get that view point where maybe it was unsettling and perhaps getting a lot of credit it may not actually deserve because its a topic you can’t really criticize without being skewered at the stake by activists who have heavy opinions on mental health awareness.
I guess I’ll have to see it for myself. I’m not sure what to expect.

(Wanted......Brimstone Lap)
Male Hearth....one day🤞Dream on.Let me preface this post by saying that I have no idea what took me so long to finally watch this movie, but i watched the 1974 Texas Chainsaw Massacre last night. It was the best movie I’ve seen in a really long time, and I watch A LOT of scary movies! I have well over 700 movies and around 80% of them are horror. To Anyone who loves a good scare, don’t let “1974” deter you from watching it. It flows well and is quick to “get to the point”. This movie does not drag. The acting is top shelf, and totally believable. Really REALLY well done (if you’re into this genre)
I am a fan of Rob Zombie films, and if I were a bettin’ man, i would say this movie was possibly his inspiration for House of 1,000 corpses, at the very least. Even got 88% on the Tomatometer.
I know I mostly stand alone on this forum, when it comes to my love of horror movies, but I had to post it for the odd fan out there…Sherry! Lol!! It is worth the watch and is currently streaming on the Canadian Netflix!! Give it a go! It will not disappoint.
P.S. that Tall Grass movie I previously commented on….terrible. Just terrible. And I gave it a couple of chances.
Wanted: "Dragon Fruit" Male Dragon ~ "Fire Berry", "Paradise", "Dragon Fruit", "Tie Dye" ~ The brighter, the better!
If you like short stories…ABC’s of Death (1&2), XX, Holidays…all creepy short stories.
ABC’s of death was kind of a game changer in the world of short movies (IMO) 26 directors from around the world each had one a letter of the alphabet. Their stories detailed 26 ways to die, each corresponding to a different letter of the alphabet. The directors’ different cultures/traditions really shone through. Sometimes though, what is scary in one country, might be totally ridiculous in another.

Loved that one too Angelika! I have seen all of the Texas Chainsaw movies and this was one of the best. Love horror! My boyfriend hates it so I have to wait until he goes to work and watch it ravenously to get those chills in when I can. Guilty pleasure (and I know most horror junkies hate them) but I love the Saw franchise. If I’m ever channel surfing and I come across any of them it’s like “Well, I guess I HAVE to keep this on now” LOL! Same for any of the Alien movies. By far my all time favorites <3

Dreamscape, Orion, Poison Dart, Fireberry, Spangler + Tigerberry DragonsLol! My other half also hates horror movies, unless the “monsters” in the movie are human and it doesnt have any paranormal undertones. He watched Texas Chainsaw Massacre with his mouth open and i dont think he blinked at all during the whole movie lol!! That says alot actually. Usually, 10 minutes in, i get “ummmmmmmmmmm can we watch something else?? Please?”
Drag0n, I have seen the 2003 and 2017 Texas chainsaw/leatherface movies…but I am going to watch the other ones now. Other than 1974, which is your favorite?
I have seen Saw 1, 2, 3 …. did not mind them one bit!
What about American Horror Story? In this order, I liked Asylum, Murder House, Roanoke, Freak Show, Coven, and Hotel…I havent seen Cult or Apocalypse yet. Freak show made me sad though…

THE BEST SCARY MOVIE EVER!! It’s a classic and a must see for any true horror flick fan!! It keeps you always on that suspense ledge and I love that feeling!! LOL!
One of the Horror/Suspense movies that always creeped me out was ‘Children of the Corn’. And until I stopped being seriously creeped out by skeletons and mummies – ‘The Mummy’… now it’s just fun!

*** Come visit me on deviantArt at http://ela-hara.deviantart.comSo as I was curious about it I finally went and saw Joker. About half way through the movie I was like “Meh… its not bad… it’s not as great as everyone is saying, but its not bad.” but by the end of the movie I have to say… it was actually really good. It was most certainly a new direction for comic based franchises in the movie industry to say the very least.
Very much full of a lot of mental illness which Joaquin Phoenix portrayed amazingly well. I mean… I think Joker I do NOT think Joaquin Phoenix AT ALL, but wow. He did a great job.
It was certainly violent at parts, but I didn’t get that sense of “oh there is violence just for violence sake” like you get out of a horror movie. Most of the time it just slapped you in the face as Joker descends further into madness. The laugh… yea he did a great job. It was perfectly balanced between an inappropriate laugh that makes you just feel uncomfortable and classic Mark Hamill.
That gangly run was almost too much, but all in all I really enjoyed it. It wasn’t an anti hero movie, but if you are anti government like I am some points in the movie you get a sense of how just today’s society can easily fail and then corrupt an already fragile person and you almost kind of understand Joker as a character a lot more. Makes you sympathize with him in a really screwed up way if that makes sense. Also a few cool Easter eggs if you know to look for that kind of thing.
Anyway, good watch…. but for the love of God don’t bring your kids!
