i think “there’s someone inside your house” definitely paid homage to 90s slashers. it even had a sneaky little nod to scream by naming the street “prescott” street.
I love that you mentioned "Over the Garden Wall!" My husband and I watch the whole show every year because it's very sentimental to us and no one knows what it is whenever we talk about it!
@@kimberlygaugh4085 Part of me would want to see how they continue it, but I don’t know… the movie is so good as is, I wouldn’t want it to be ruined by franchising.
I’d love to hear your thoughts about Last Night in SoHo. It’s been extremely polarizing with critics and audiences (mainly critics) but I loved it. It’s one I think could make for an interesting discussion video, particularly the ending
I am SO glad you pointed out that Megan Fox was still pretty throughout her ordeal in Till Death. That little detail drove me crazy! They should have at least had her wear messy, smudged eye makeup so she could look more distressed.
I HIGHLY recommend the limited series on Netflix Midnight Mass. I think it’s my favorite that Flanagan has done. And if you haven’t already, The Outsider (Stephen King) on HBO has similar pacing and vibes.
I was told to watch "The Guilty". It's a 2018 Danish movie and supposed to be good. the Netflix one is actually an American Remake of the 2018 one, but I was told the Danish version it's better. I personally have not seen either version, but I usually prefer to watch the original version before the remake to get a better sense of how they differ from one another.
For Squid Game, be sure to pick the 'English' subtitles, not 'English [CC]' (which is often the default). The CC subtitles are based on the dubbed dialogue. The non CC subtitles are translated from the Korean dialogue.
Sarah, i would love for you to watch (and possibly review The Empty Man, if you havent already i forget). The trailer threw me off but was surprised when I tuned it on, it became a whole different movie. Incredibly chilling and mind opening. Easily became one of my top 10 horror movies of all time, and that says a lot.
I did 31 Days of Horror! Out of all the movies I’ve watched in October, Titane was the one that blew my head off! This film is layered with lots of commentary about gender fluidity, sexuality, trauma-bond, and love in general. The director Julia Ducournau outdid ‘Raw,’ in my opinion.
Hey Sarah! I have an idea for a video. Lately I've been trying to show someone horror movies to scare them. They keep saying "that wasn't scary" or "that was dumb and boring." I'm suspecting they just are refusing to immerse themselves into the films. Long story short, you should do a video of "movies to show people who don't get scared" or something of that nature. Thanks for the content, long time subscriber here. Love your channel, cheers!
A new viewer here!. I love watching Asian horror after spending 10 year living in Hong Kong. I love the way that they tend to blend their traditions into their stories.
I too, was surprised by the new Paranormal Activity....LOVED IT!!!! (in all it's "Last Exorcism [ Part2 Glory)!!!! Thanks for another awesome and creepy informative video....HAPPY HALLOWEEN!!!!
Super interested in what you have to say about the Slasher series and Channel Zero. They're probably my favorite horror anthology series and I rarely ever hear people talk about them
i’m so glad you talked about “There’s Someone Inside Your House”! it’s adapted from the book by Stephanie Perkins and she’s got another horror/thriller that just came out that i’m hoping will be adapted if this movie does really well
I liked the movie more than the book. I was a big not fan of the book, the whodunit was disappointing, the romance focus overshadowed the thriller aspect, and the mystery of the MC was so dumb. But the changes the movie took made it so much more fun and campy. I still might read her new thriller. I want to know if my issues with her first were because she wrote YA contemporary romances before so she was still finding her way with YA thrillers.
I totally agree with you about making people flawless in horror movies. That’s why I love rob zombies Halloween. I remember being in the theater when it came out and people audibly gasping when Laurie fell through the ceiling.. and looked like she fell through a ceiling. Super effective! Thanks for the video ❤️
on halloween I ended up watching the muppets haunted mansion movie and some of the treehouse of horror episodes lol I watched so many horror movies throughout the month that I just wanted something a little more wholesome that day
Squid Game...agree with choosing the subtitled version. And that game involving a bridge -- I literally had to pause that episode a couple of times and practice deep breathing techniques.
My favorite thing I watched in October was probably a giallo called "So Sweet, So Dead". I also watched Gonjiam because of you and BRUH you were right... that was scary.
I am truly dying to hear your opinion on I Know What You Did Last Summer TV series. This is one of my most beloved horror franchises (well apart from the third one of course) and I've been waiting for a reboot for a long time. And what we got in the form of this Amazon show is quite bizarre
Over the garden wall is one of my favorite cartoon shows I love it! Also I watched ginger snaps and scream for the first time on Halloween and scream easily became my new favorite movie
I've been reluctant to watch the show because I enjoy the movie so much, I have an aversion to the possibility that they ruin the concept with the show. But that feeling I have goes for most shows that follow a completed narrative in a movie.
@@priqq1 i felt the same as you, but the show is really funny and fun. it is directed and produced by the same dudes, with cameos from taika waititi and jemaine clement. they are involved in the show so the quality is maintained!
@@priqq1 I was like that at first, but honestly, after the first few episodes you’ll grow to love the new characters. Plus the guys from the film make the occasional cameo
There were several instances of the new PA having traditional thematic shots instead of found footage shots. We spent a week watching the previous PA movies leading up to the new one, so the discrepancy really stood out and bugged me. I heard it was going to be a reboot, and I'm glad it wasn't a reboot in the sense that it was rehashing the same story though. It just didn't feel like a PA movie.
I personally hate when I watch current movies and they mention COVID and tik tok😂 I know it’s current and topical but I do not want to watch a movie to escape reality and then be reminded that we are in a pandemic
I thought The Guilty was average and kind of dragged while I loved Till Death. It had me on the edge of my seat and was a lot of fun. Also the guilty was originally a foreign film that I've heard is better.
The original film is Danish, and it's without a doubt better, and that's not to say the American version isn't decent: however, since the movie is so dependent on the actors' actual voices, I do think it would be difficult to enjoy the original, considering the language barriers.
We watched Scooby Doo and the Witch's Ghost, Scooby Doo Zombie Island, Bride of Chucky, Night of the Living Dead (1990) and Halloween 4 & Halloween 5. All rewatches except for Bride of Chucky (my husband had never seen it). 🎃
Have you seen the horror Christmas movie Krampus? I watched it again recently (I saw it in theatres when it came out) and I liked it. It’s fun and it’s really really cozy when they’re inside the house in the dark
Have you ever talked about your thoughts on The Visit before in a video? I rewatched it last weekend after not seeing it since it was in theaters and it is a wild and weird ride lmao
I love the first two I know what you did last summer movies, but while I would love your opinion on the show, it isn’t very great. The mystery is cranked up from the movies but that is it. My hope is that the last two episodes gives something more to offer.
I participated in 31 days of horror in october so I watched many horror movies. The best one was The Skin I Live In, blew me away, absolutely terrifying. Other ones that I finally watched and also loved are - The Descent, Invasion of the Body Snatchers (from the 50s), Hellraiser, Silent Hill, The Babadook and Paranormal Activity (first one, now I understand why it's so popular). And on the actual day/night of Halloween I rewatched two of my favourite horror movies, both remakes, House of Wax and The Fly. Great video as usual. For The Guilty, I saw people talking about it on my timeline but they usually mentioned why the need to remake the danish original thriller - so I'm more interested in watching the original even though I love Jake Gyllenhaal :)
I love What We Do in the Shadows! I'm not an Office fan, but Parks n Rec is my fave show of all time. I think it has to do with the type of humor. I watched the following on Halloween day: Hush, Anacondas: The Hunt for the Blood Orchid, Rocky Horror Picture Show, and Trick-r-Treat.
Yesssss Scary Stories is one of my favorite horror movies (if not my actual fav) and so after staying up watching Ghostbusters with my dad leading into Halloween, I stayed up until like 4 or 5 am watching Scary Stories, cuz my family doesn't really vibe with horror movies and so I wanted to get to watch it before later when we'd be watching other stuff 😂🙈 Later I watched two Abbott and Costello movies with my parents and then my mom introduced me to Buffy the Vampire Slayer and we binged the first 3 episodes. Then I watched an episode of the show Psych (literally my childhood, I started watching it during the first season when I was 5 and have been obsessed ever since) called Tuesday the 17th that's a little bit of a spoof/tribute to Friday the 13th. It's funny AND a little intense and it was the perfect way to cap off the evening 🙃
I finally watched all of the saw movies (except spiral) and I surprisingly wasn't as afraid as I thought I would be. I loved all of them and it was so interesting! I finally understand why people love them so much
I didn't have much time to watch all the movies I wanted for October but during the month I watched the corpse bride, Sweeney Todd, Jennifer's body and fantastic Mr Fox. And on Halloween I was very basic, I only watched the original Halloween and Scream
Next of Kin was awesome. The demon Asmodeus written on the floor of the church is one and the same as Tobi. Paranormal Activity 8:The Other Side comes out next year.
I actually did 31 days of horror this year. I can't remember everything I watched for that reason, so I'll just list the highlights. Note that I didn't really watch new stuff. Angst Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer May (this is probably in my top 10 horrors now, it's truly a gem) Suspiria (original, loved it, so weird) It (2017, I was putting it off because it's so long. But omg I loved it. Didn't feel like it was over 2 hours) Halloween (original, needs no introduction) Texas Chainsaw Massacre All 5 Final Destination movies Gonjiam Haunted Asylum Grave Encounters (this one was more funny to me) Triangle I know there are others I enjoyed, but those are the most memorable. I watched a few episodes of Creepshow here and there and thought it was pretty good, also watched Haunted House LLC, Raw, and A Classic Horror Story, which were all decent imo. I watched a few I hated, like Hellfest and the Nightmare on Elm Street remake. I also watched Poughkeepsie Tapes, which I didn't hate, but thought was overrated. Kind of counts, but it's not exactly horror, at most thriller. Season 3 of You. Not tired of horror somehow, lol
I also watched May in October and I didn’t care for it. It was really awkward and slow but I understand that it’s a cult classic so it’s not for everyone.
@@laurenmacfarlane3382 I get it. I liked the awkwardness I guess lol. It didn't feel slow to me, but I can see what you're saying, since the first hour feels almost like a slice of life with horror elements here and there. I'm not always into cult classics, but May worked for me.
You didn’t link a single video that you referenced in here! Or post a pic of you in your Halloween costume like it seemed like you were intending. Lol. Good video as always though
There’s Someone Inside Your House is based off a YA book of the same name by Stephanie Perkins! I haven’t read it yet but I would love to hear your thoughts if you did a comparison of the two. Stephanie Perkins also has another thriller/horror book called The Woods Are Always Watching and it was fun (definitely not a fav of mine but maybe worth checking out if you like camping/wilderness horror)
I would love for you to try to watch the show. I enjoy it. It’s definitely not an amazing show like squid games or anything like that, but it is entertaining. The main problem is that the writers don’t really know how to write teenagers, but that happens in a lot of shows anyways
I did see Impression Blend talk about The Guilty because she has seen the original Danish film and she didn't care for it and preferred the Danish original
I'm sure this will sound cray cray but I HATED Zombie's H2 in theaters. Then for some reason, I watched the director's cut on blu. I love it now. Seen it multiple times. It's BY FAR my second favorite of the series. I know, I'm obviously cray cray. :p In a nutshell: I love Scout Taylor Compton's Laurie struggling with PTSD. How that is really what the film is about not Michael who arguably in the directors cut is just a figment of her imagination. Also, best last shot of a horror film maybe in all the 2000s!
I actually watched Halloween 2 and 4 along with Scream on actual halloween,. I think the fourth has such a nice vibe to it even tho the movie might not be the best in the franchise. I watched the 2018 version on the 1st November, still havent found time to watch Halloween Kills yet tho :o
I LOVE the new ikwydls show!! I think the storyline is so wack and unique and the acting is actually very good. I’d love to hear your opinion on it!!!!
dude i gotta say you were absolutely right about Gonjiam…decided to put it on at night off an edible and fuck that movie especially the last half really gets you feeling icky!!! had to put on spongebob to fall asleep that night lol
What We Do In The Shadows the show is one of my faves, but I’m really sad about how not good the newest season is. Jemaine Clement left the show and I think that has made the writing take a nose dive, the characters have become caricatures of themselves. I’m glad you found it though!
So glad you loved, What We Do In the Shadows!!! I also haven't felt attached to a show since Game of Thrones. You should try A Discovery of Witches on Shudder if you haven't already. Love your channel!
On Halloween I watched "Villains" with Bill Skarsgård and Kyra Sedgwick after coming home from the final performance of live version of "Night of the Living Dead" that I was in. Really enjoyed Villians. Well done and acted. Not sure if you ever saw it but would suggest
I know the exact scene in PA next of kin your talking about! And I thought the exact same! Haha I was like who tf is holding?? Also i think the only thing that ties it with the rest of the films is the demon Asmodeus. But yeah was definitely the most polished but i would watch it WITHOUT watching the trailer.
