I wish this movie did better at the box office. It had such a great cast and story. Don’t understand why it underperformed at the box office. An underrated 90s classic. This film is Scream meets Invasion of the Bodysnatchers. Glad you enjoyed this movie, Mike. 👌🏾
I was not a huge fan of this movie the majority of it was just one long continuous shot after another, to the point that I was falling asleep. I was more afraid of having to endure more scenes of the killer walking through the woods again than the actual killer.
This is an awesome movie and it’s crazy that it’s not more well-known! It took me until a recent watching this year to figure out that Elijah would is actually the lead of the movie think about it, he is the only set of parents that you actually see and he is often in focus, story wise. When I saw this in the 90s at age 11, it was full of actors I knew at the time and that was part of the appeal for me at first! Lol
I seen this movie 2 weeks ago and had a really fun time with this. I seen the original one and this us version is way less annoying and the characters are more likable then the 2022 version. Great review Mikey I love your 31 days of horror series.
Nice review. I remember seeing this when I was 13, I had older siblings and cousins who I would con them into taking me to see The Faculty and Blade. I loved the humor in this film, I remember how MTV was heavily marketing this. I had the same questions you.
The first thing that came to my mind watching this movie was The Breakfast Club. It's a much darker version of it, if you think about it... and long time, no hear btw😊
Great review! Was I the only one who found humor when it was meant to be taken serious? It was kind of bad. This directors movies feel like 1st word problems + horror in movie form.
saw for the first time 10/12/24 and dang the skaters got me I hated them but also the skeletons I did not want to root for them as well. just bad. I don't mind the first 2 movies but the last one is just shity i don't like anyone cant even like the vilans. oh nvm i like the cape just the cape.
Have you heard that a new v/h/s film has come out? In my opinion it’s the best one thus far for a lot of reasons that I won’t say much about for those who haven’t seen it. Loved terrifer 3 btw personally a lot of fun to see in a theater full of people. Really is a perfect movie for that
If you read the book or listened to the audio book, you know how much more rich and interesting the story is. The author just released a follow up the book and have another book - The Creeper, which is very good. Only problem I have is, the movie versions would be lackluster.
Mike you should watch Amanda The Jedi's video essay on this film. She goes into extreme detail about both the movie and the novel. She compares and contrasts both mediums of the source material and goes over their differences and explains what worked and what didn't. Also I'll say one thing, they're not aliens they're fairies lol. Like I said check out Amanda's video as she provides excellent commentary and also if you really care to.
A Quiet Place: Day One is a very well made film. Interesting that I am seeing more actors from Krypton, I couldn't never get into it.I hope Ishana Night Shyamalan learn from this experience, on the bright side she has no where to go but up.
