Not to be THAT guy but this could’ve used more blob.

Easily one of my top horror films if not my favorite. The imagery is never not bold and horrific. The atmosphere is so claustrophobic and tense, sometimes it’s even irritating. Which makes for a consistently tense experience where, no matter how disturbing things might seem, you really never know what’s around the corner. The whole thing ends with an incredibly necessary space to breathe for both the viewer, the protagonist, and the killer (who is one of the weirdest and most interesting killers out there.)  Her final shriek says it all.

Thought this was more captivating and unsettling than it was scary. I’m also not super squeamish but this has some moments that are...so vivid. Extremely well written, specifically the way things wrapped up. I know this is nitpicky but I’m super annoying when it comes to how music is used in film, specifically when it’s overused. This is a prime example of that in that I think a lot of the “scary” scenes here could have been so much scarier…

To everyone who shat on this and convinced me to shit on it without ever having seen it, cmon man. Fun time and aside from a (sorta) cheesy ending, this has aged better than it should have. I miss how awful 2013 was.

Genuinely? One of my favorite anthology films and EASILY the best horror anthology I’ve seen. Hilarious that I JUST saw Dead of Night last night and this (I think) pays homage to that (scary puppet!) or at least follows the same format.

Amazed at how creative it goes about telling such heavy stories. At any given moment this is either funny, horrific, powerful, or incredibly unique. You truly can’t lose here.

This was my first drive-in experience and it was a blast! Was in a comfortable position for less than a minute total but still had a good time so what does that say? This is real creepy and real funny, the whole golf ball thing was brilliant. But wait AND I won a free blu-ray during the pre-show trivia. Hell yeah, movies!
