Movies: Whatcha watching lately?

For horror fans, two new good ones in the genre:

Weapons - Great premise and constant eerie feeling.
Together - Body horror movie with some gnarly jump scares.

What have you seen lately and what would you recommend?

Haven’t seen Together yet, but loved Weapons! Excited for Zach Cregger’s adaption of Resident Evil in the future, too.

A few I’d recommend:

  • Frankenstein (Guillermo del Toro’s) - Not straight horror, but I’m a fan of del Toro’s work and this was great. Fairly long, though!
  • Bring Her Back - A particular scene in this REALLY got me. From the dude’s who made ā€œTalk to Meā€.
  • IT: Welcome to Derry (Not a movie, but TV series!) - I’m just a fan of IT (Loved the book). If you liked the movies, this is a fun series so far.

Ones I’m keeping an eye on:

  • Keeper
  • Predator Badlands

Always looking for recs myself! Thanks for kicking this off.

Watched the 1st epidode of IT and holy crap…. That first scene/intro in the car… I wont spoil. I’m not entirely sure all teh child actors are up to snuff. I can feel some of the rigidness of a less than stellar cast. But oh boy does the atmosphere completely make up for it.

First 2 Episodes of PLURIBUS are really great, and it being made by Vince Gilligan (known for Breaking Bad, Better Call Saul) gives me confidence to say that the whole show will be worth watching!
Kind of a weird scifi-catastrophe-show. Very intriguing!

I would recommend two of em…one is called freaks..it’s less horror more thriller.

..and …8 legged freaks..the opposite of freaks…it’s got spiders :slight_smile:

And finally for those who crave having their mind twisted like a wet sponge… Tusk.

@Crator I don’t watch movies much, so I can’t really comment on those titles personally. I mostly spend my free time playing football video games, which is kind of my way of getting into a story or action without sitting through a film. I enjoy the strategy, the team management, and the competitive matches—it gives me a similar adrenaline rush that horror movies might give others with scares and tension. That said, I can appreciate why horror fans love films like Weapons or Together, with their eerie atmosphere and jump scares. For me, though, I usually stick to virtual games where I can control the action instead of watching it unfold. It’s interesting to hear what others are watching, though, because maybe one day I’ll give one a try—but for now, it’s all about football games for me!

Nice thread! I’ve been enjoying the mix of movie recommendations here — it’s always fun to see what others are watching and pick up new films to add to the list. Thanks for everyone sharing their favorites!

And if anyone here also likes fun creative tools, here’s a simple ship name generator you might enjoy.

I love to watch Zombies movies from last 2 Years I’m still waiting for another season of ALL OF US DEAD, I really appreciated World War Z and most perfect accurate movie ever.

I’ve been revisiting a mix of classic movies and newer releases lately. It’s always interesting to compare how storytelling and production styles evolve over time. Sometimes I spend almost as much time reading reviews and recommendations as I do watching movies. While browsing online resources recently, I also found this useful guide, which is well organized and easy to navigate. Looking forward to hearing what everyone else has been watching and recommending lately.

A post from half a year ago, but always a topic of discussion. I haven’t watched a lot of movies as of recent since I’m binging on Anime and K-Dramas :rofl: However, I’ve recently watched:

Chainsaw Man Movie
Swapped
28 Years Later: The Bone Temple
28 Years Later

TV Show-wise?

Overlord (Season 3)
That Time I got Reincarnated as a Slime (Season 4)
Re: Zero -Starting Life in Another World
The Boys Season 5 (completed)
Reacher Season 3 (in progress)
The Rookie (caught up)
Apothecary Diaries (caught up)
Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End (caught up)
Queen of Tears (completed)
Can This Love Be Translated (completed)
The Potato Lab (completed)
Genie, Make a Wish (completed)

Predator:Badlands was fun. Not exactly what I consider predator but still fun. Had some fleshing out of the lore and more tech. Now if they’d just bring it all full circle with Alien: Covenant…

I’ve been catching up on a mix of action and sci-fi lately. I finally watched Dune: Part Two, and the visuals were absolutely incredible. I also rewatched Edge of Tomorrow, which is still one of my favorite sci-fi action movies.

Next on my watchlist are Sinners and 28 Years Later because I’ve heard great things about both on absher. Always looking for new recommendations—what’s the best movie you’ve watched recently that you’d rate 10/10?

LOVE Derry! Fantastic story and lore they captured so well in the series!

Ive rewatched edge of tommorror a lot, love that one, I LOVE SCI FI MOVIES AND SHOWS!

So I am mixed on badlands, i think i liked it because I love all things aliens and predator, but overall, it…it was different, and weird but cool at the same time.
