Academy Award® winner Oliver Stone (Platoon) makes his directorial debut in this tale of macabre horror and suspense! Horror writer Edmund Blackstone (Jonathan Frid TV's Dark Shadows) sees his recurring nightmare come to chilling life one weekend evening when he and his family and friends are terrorized and killed off one by one by the Queen of Evil (Martine Beswick, Thunderball) and her servants, a dwarf named Spider (Hervé Villechaize, Fantasy Island), and a giant scar-faced strongman called Jackal (Henry Judd Baker, After Hours). Is this a nightmare, or the real thing? Watch this cult classic from a brand new HD master from the original vault elements! The stellar cast includes cult legend Mary Woronov (Eating Raoul), Troy Donahue (A Summer Place), Joseph Sirola (Hang Em High) and Richard Cox (Cruising).

 

 

UPDATE: a really bizarre story & only watched it cause it had my Barnabas Jonathan Frid and the Beauty Martine Beswick & of course “The plane” 😛 Hervé! 2/5

Watched Once Upon a Time in Hollywood last night and I loved it!!

 

 

Margot Robbie played an absolutely dreamy Sharon Tate. I almost wish the ending of the movie was the actual reality ☹️

[lunazero]

Over the last few days watched these at home:

 

Jurassic World 3D

Bumblebee 4K (wish we had a decent WEA for this!)

Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom 3D

 

All great experiences! Just seen Dominion tonight and enjoyed it! 

[Gary K]

holy action epic!!!  The most purely cinematic, exuberantly action packed spectacle I’ve seen in ages.  
 

Non stop gorgeously shot, staged and executed action for 3 hours.    
 

worth every second of your time.  
 

5/5

The disappearance of a baby from a small coastal town in Australia is the catalyst for a journey into the disintegrating psychology of a young couple as they deal with an unthinkable tragedy under both the white light of public scrutiny and behind closed doors.

 

 

UPDATE: kinda slow methodical drama that took you to the last seen to see… 3.5/5

Watched Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2022) yesterday!

 

 

A whole lot of fun. Definitely enjoyed the satirical aspect as well, and I think it's a tad underrated in comparison to what people on Letterboxd rate it. Loved the ending!

HARD agree. I hated Halloween Kills. And this is coming from someone who rewatches Halloween: Resurrection as a guilty pleasure every now and then. Lol

in the blink of an eye....you will see breasts....

 

not horrible, but not great and the special effects did NOT age well.

I watched Gattaca with my bestie @Shaliber last night~

 

 

Uma was gorgeous and amazing, Ethan was also gorgeous and amazing, and the movie really made me raw and emotional! I was so pleasantly surprised and moved by it. It's a film I'm going to continue thinking about for awhile

Currently mid-way through season 3 of The Boys (Amazon Prime), very gory but it's very entertaining, anyone else watching it?

I do not enjoy excessive gore in my horror… subtle, spookiness is my ‘cup of tea’!

Started watching Manifest and I'm almost at the end of season 1!

Indeed.  Just when I think it can go any further over the top it does!

🥤📺🎬💽  Watched from our DVR…



Recaptured renegade leader Christopher Lambert is sent to an "escape-proof" space-prison in this action-packed sequel to the popular cult classic. 

 

 

UPDATE: turn off your brain for this mindless drivel 😒 1/5

 

A mysterious stranger rolls into town on a unique motorcycle. All he carries is the bible and a desire for justice. Past vengeance collides as Ryder rights an injustice from his past and liberates the small town from a malicious oppressor.

Just finished Tampopo earlier today. It's a Japanese comedy from 1985 about creating the perfect bowl of ramen. I know it sounds boring but it's a cute story and I enjoyed it.

🥤📺🎬💽  Watched from our local library…

 

On an annual extreme outdoor adventure, six women meet in a remote part of the Appalachians to explore a cave hidden deep in the woods. Far below the surface of the earth, disaster strikes when a rock fall blocks their exit and there's no way out. The women push on, praying for another exit, but there is something else lurking under the earth. The friends are now prey, forced to unleash their most primal instincts in an all-out war against an unspeakable horror - one that attacks without warning, again and again and again. 

 

 

UPDATE: A very good story with some scenic landscapes including inside the cave…enjoyed the monsters too! 4.5/5

 

In a world where families are limited to one child due to overpopulation, a set of identical septuplets must avoid being put to a long sleep by the government and dangerous infighting while investigating the disappearance of one of their own. 

 

 

UPDATE: so disappointed 😔 as I had high expectations for this one as I’m a fan of Noomi Rapace & her trilogy of TGwtDT… this one was just too tedious, predictable & mind you, just not my ‘cup of tea’ 2/5

I finished the entirety of Manifest in the span of five days lol. Onto the next!

 

I started watching Glow on Netflix for the first time from the beginning. I love wrestling -- especially women wrestlers -- and this cast, so I'm all the way in!

Edge of Tomorrow 4k.

 

Very impressive audio. Room shaking Bass.  Nice Atmos.  Dolby Vision would have been a plus.
