Indeed. I think I’ve seen a few of the late ones. But they do tend to need to figure out Tobin Bell and his role in each of them. Felt like that was the starting point for this.

That's one I should get around to watching. Never saw the original, just Carpenter's remake.

Is it on Shudder? I didn't see it.

Horror channel running “Legend of the naked ghost”. Sounds robust. But has started with a short, racist, animated short. As you do. Says it’s going to take 100 minutes and yet this channel has adverts. Probably a short one.

I'm at home when I'm not at work most of the time. I'd say "no life" but there's really nothing to do around here except eat...and I don't need to make that problem any worse :P

Colour me impressed. I thought I was doing pretty well for myself, and I've watched about 1/4 the films you have. I'd say you've got this one in the bag. :)

Well there was blood I guess. Blood and a lot of “whodunit“ but slightly predictable. Maybe not. Maybe I just overanyzed it too much.
It's better than 4 and 5, but it's just Saw 2 repackaged. Plus, after binge watching all three seasons of Hannibal, what gore in Jigsaw didn't really impress me all that much. Except the head laser scene, that was pretty cool

LMAO

Just put on something on Amazon that I have literally never heard of. Within 2 minutes, lesbian couple goes in the woods and one is killed by having her face caved into her partners vagina... Because that's how death works. Think it's called "Porkchops" or "Porkchop 2: Rise of the Rind" depending on if you go by Amazon or you go by the name they put into the opening credits. :P It also had a genuinely pretty sweet disembowelling scene right after. I actually didn't spot the obvious trick they used and so it took me by surprise just how real it looked for a second.

I was really going to stop at 90, so I have something to pass next year, but I have found a last minute surge of "movie watching energy" if you will. So onward I go!

Why limit yourself if there's stuff to watch. :)

I've had a pretty impressive day for me, horror-wise. :)

Sign these people up for a writing Oscar. Because this is pure gold.

"Maybe he'll meet a pretty girl, like his dad"

Without the word "did" at the end, that says that his dad is a pretty girl... Impressive as always.
