My Favorite Horror of the Year: 1. The Lighthouse (definitely not for everyone and I understand why you disliked it) 2. Midsommar 3. Us 4. Doctor Sleep 5. Ready or Not My Least Favorite: 1. In the Tall Grass 2. Annabelle Comes Home 3. The Curse of La Llorona Personally I thought Joker was fine, not really worth either the hype or controversy and generally kind of just middling and forgettable. You and Emma (SpookyAstronauts) definitely had the least toxic discussion of it though which was nice to see, even if I disagree on it. Glad some people could both love it and be civil and eloquent about it :)

Ready or Not was the biggest surprise for me. The "deal with the devil" angle felt kinda like an overused trope. But I liked the the cat and mouse survival part of it. Very suspenseful.

@thrawncaedusl7174 жыл бұрын
I’ve heard this theory, but I completely disagree and still love The Lighthouse, which I think is what makes it such a great movie. I see it more as a commentary on how people perceive themselves as doing more, harder work than others, while suspecting others of malicious intent. My favorite part was the “chased with an axe” scene, as that was when I realized there was really no way of knowing who chased whom; both believed the other had killed someone, as well as believing the other was a disrespectful, bad coworker. They were the same, but perceived the other as completely different. I would also argue that The Lighthouse explores the same themes as The Shining (isolation and a sense of frustrated manhood leading to a break with reality), and would make the perhaps sacrilegious claim that The Lighthouse does it better (The Shining has better cinematography, but as far as storytelling goes, The Lighthouse blows it out of the water).

The cast was great and some of the scares really got me. 3)Climax-Great soundtrack,cinematography and disturbing plot. I loved it! 4) Escape Room-I don't know about y'all I was "clutching my pearls" throughout this movie. It was tense, fun and had great set design. 5) Us- took me a while to appreciate it, but I've come around to really liking it. 6)The Perfection- maybe it's because I'm gay or something BUT holy cow this movie was so good. I love a crazy and twisted tale of lesbianism. It's the closest Americans would ever come to making a South Korean style thriller. Now for the worst I'll say: 1)Crawl-boring,predictable and horrendously written 2)The Curse of La Liorona(or however its spelled)-rotten hot garbage bottom of the barrel junk 3)Bird Box-dumb and poorly written,acted, and generally poor filmmaking.

The four main horror films I can recall seeing are Us, Midsommar, It: Chapter 2, & Doctor Sleep (also listed in release order). Each one had me engaged and invested in their plots, and I especially commend the last three for not making me feel their lengthy runtimes. I don't mind watching a long movie, but I want it to keep me on board as much as an 80 or 90 minute movie would. If it slogs in the middle, I start recognize the runtime and I'm feeling the time pass by. But Midsommar, IC2, and DS held my attention even when the action slowed down a bit with followable characters and interesting story elements, which are both important to me, especially as an aspiring writer. I haven't seen Joker or The Lighthouse yet, and had no desire to see the Pet Semetary remake (and I'm glad I didn't).

The reason the lighthouse was filmed in 4:3- aspect ratio was because Eggars wanted to make the film as reminiscent of the time it was set in as possible. 4:3 was the only aspect ratio that cameras could film in back in the late 1800s, and this is also why it was black and white , and it was also filmed using a camera lens from the 1800s (I want to say the whole camera was from then but I could be wrong). They also filmed the entire movie using only natural lighting, no artificial stage lights. He wanted it as authentic as possible. It also gives the film a claustrophobic feeling. I'd recommend watching some 'lighthouse explained' videos - it will make a lot more sense if you give them a shot.

(My)Best: Us It Tall Grass The Prodigy Tone Deaf The Perfection Extremely Wicked, Shockingly Evil, and Vile Crawl The Wind Joker Ready or Not What We Do in the Shadows (2019 series) Now that I think about it, I didn't see many horror movies this year. Last year there was more to watch, maybe? I've probs missed a few.

I agree about the Lighthouse. I was PUMPED about the movie and there were parts I loved, but you’re right, I was waiting for the “that’s so weird, I love it!” moment and I didn’t get it

7:00 to be honest I didn't entirely hate the film because of the CG and marketing but more so because there were certain some elements from the book I wish they would have put in emphasis on some because there are other elements in the book that I understand why they couldn't put it in. 9:51 The directors cut of Doctor Sleep is not bad. 11:40 honestly they should have done a mini series because there is alot of stuff they could get away with. As for my list I would say 1. Joker and Doctor Sleep 2. Us 3. It Chapter 2 4. Scary stories to tell in the dark 5. The Curse of La llorona 6. Annabelle comes home 7. Child's play (2019) 8. Ma and Brightburn 9. Pet Semetary (2019) Yeah I didn't see a lot of horror movies this year. As to why Joker and Doctor Sleep are tied is because it was hard to choose which was better same with Ma and Brightburn.

I personally feel it is ok to sympathise with a killer/evil character TO AN EXTENT. Sympathising with a villain is not the same as rooting for them or excusing/justifying their actions. Great list! Got yourself a new subscriber

I remembered wanting to come back and mention something you said about dark comedies so I had to go back and watch again. It was the Child's Play franchise that you referred to as such. If you were born in the 90's or just discovered horror films later on in life as something you've come to enjoy your first experiences of franchises such as A Nightmare on Elm St. and Child's Play as dark comedies having first seen their later sequels as by that time they've been heavily watered down from the dark roots basically having become a joke of what they once were. For instance if you look at the original you may understand why it was so frightening during that time and became an instant hit amongst fans. Then watch the later films like Bride and Seed of Chucky and see how they did a 180 with the franchise turning it into a slapstick comedy horror. But coming from their original creator they were as serious, dark, and good along with the best of them.

Thought Get Out was a masterpiece. Love how you can watch it twice with a different mindset the second time around. Us I thought was a massive disappointment. It was ok but that was, all and I figured out the twist in the first 10 mins.

Joker is definitely my favorite of the year but I certainly didn't see all the horror movies this year had to offer. Joker was just such an experience for me and is looking to overthrow my favorite movie period. I think even my favorite of the 2010's. And everyone argues when I call this a horror but it feels much more fitting than saying drama

I went to theatre to watch It Chapter Two with my best friend, and the most impossible thing happened.... We left, in the middle of the movie because he got scared -too much-! I got so alienated... I had to wait until the blu ray release to watch it again, cause I didn't have time to go watch it in the theatres ....

I’m so proud of myself for watching almost all of the movies you named 🙌🏽 I avoided the bad ones by simply guessing from their trailers, which helped me save some bucks 😆

*Thank you* for saying all the deaths are in the trailer, because I was about to watch it as soon as you said "art". I'll go into it blindly and see how I like it. My favorite horror game is Layers of Fear so I'm glad I avoided spoilers for Velvet Buzzsaw. Appreciated!
