MacReady Posted August 5, 2020 Share Posted August 5, 2020 9 hours ago, thrILL! said: Underwater Gave me a serious cosmic high through the first 45 minutes until it devolved into crap for the final 45 minutes. I don't understand and will never understand how a horror movie can build tension so well only to hit a plateau halfway through and then completely level off towards the end. Underwater, to me, was exactly like The Cloverfield Paradox. It did so well building tension and giving you a sense of WTF is going on only to completely level off. Event Horizon is the only movie to ever understand the concept that this type of horror should increase, become more WTF and get more terrifying as the story progresses rather than hitting a plateau and then descending into a valley.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Reed Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Had never seen it until now but Prisoners (2013) with Hugh Jackman and Jake Gyllenhaal was great. I’ve really really liked every one of Denis Villenueve’s movies I’ve seen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted August 6, 2020 Share Posted August 6, 2020 Holy ****.  I almost never stop watching a movie I start, but Killing Gunther was very, very, very terrible.  Didn’t last 30 minutes.  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Malfatron Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 The original Star Wars. I love the pacing of the movie and world building however, none of the special features added in later are any good, especially the obvious greedo scene Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacReady Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 (edited) I’m watching Apostle. I’m either going to love this movie or hate it based on how it ends. Very dark, probably very bleak.   Edit: Guess I was wrong.  I didn’t love it or hate it.  Didn’t like it, didn’t dislike it.  It was okay.   Not the best, not the worst Netflix original, and better than a lot of horror options out there.  Edited August 7, 2020 by Outpost31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That scene came from a deleted scene where Jabba looked like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
