WHAT I WATCHED IN MAY | LETTERBOXD RECAP

[@lex7176]

I absolutely agree that this channel feels very safe and welcoming. My relationship with horror isn't very practical; I love so many of the concepts that are done in horror, but I don't enjoy the anxiety that comes from actually watching it. However, you are one of my FAVORITE channels because I love listening to you discuss it. I found myself wondering why I would enjoy listening to someone talk about movies and shows that I have no intention of watching, but I realized it's because you don't shame anyone for how they enjoy media. You have your own opinions, but you never make others feel bad about their own. Thank you for being such an amazing content creator!!

[@lainiwakura1776]

I don't get anxiety, I cringe inside because something always ends up being bad about the movie or just plain not scary.

[@theatermx]

@lex wow it's like we're the same person lol

[@Kasenator-_-]

I have had many words to say about this channel and “safe space” is the perfect word. Thank you so much for making me feel comfortable in the horror community. I don’t have to watch gruesome and terrifying horror movies if I’m not comfortable with it. You make me feel comfortable watching your videos. So, thank you for that. You’re amazing. 👍😁

[@spacemonkeypantz]

"But decommissioning the clone fails, so..." Me: Ah yes, they'll have to learn to live together and deal with that philosophical struggle of what makes them real. "...the court orders a dual to the death." Me: 👁️👄👁️

[@screamcollective8661]

Honestly I love that you have your annual comfort rewatches too. Makes me feel less like a crazy person!

[@spookysapphic]

“if you’re not scared of cars like that” LMFAOO idk why but that made me laugh so hard fr 😭😭

[@sawyerscheitler6416]

I grew up in the town Our Father takes place in… my mom and Aunt both used Doctor Clein and we have family friends who have since found out their child is sibling #96… thank goodness my mom and aunt switched fertility doctors prior to insemination… so horrifying and disgusting

[@gailsmith6156]

When you were explaining Duel, I haven't even seen the film but when you said "Much like The Art of War".... I KNEW you were going to say that!!! You're so good at this! Love watching your channel!

[@a.a.5765]

i'm so glad to hear your thoughts on No One Gets Out Alive!! i loved this movie, and was wondering why no one was talking about it. I watched it during my October Halloween Marathon last year, and it was relatively new at the time. Underrated for sure!!

[@MokeleMbembeLives]

Every time I see Noomi Rapace’s name attached to a horror film, I have to see it. She was amazing in LAMB, Rupture, Prometheus and The Monitor.

[@dhruvildesai6911]

i know a lot of people probably already said this but season 4 of stranger things has STRONG horror elements but it's not an anthology so you would have to watch the first 3 seasons to know what's going on, you could try giving season 1 a try and see if it interests you because i think the new season is incredible.

[@PossessedbyHorror]

I’ve watched season 1 and just didn’t really get into it!

[@Matthew-Coburn-Da-Dude]

Christine is my favorite movies tied with Ghostbusters. Watched it since it was first released on VHS when I was 4-5 years old. The Thing not doing so well in theaters has been seen as why he went so light with the kills from being gory. Did Christine after his Firestarter was cancelled because it was going to cost too much. Martin Sanchez owns a screen used Christine and is at the Petersen car Museum. A film promo car still around that was used to promote the film. Bill Gibson's Christine restored from parts of the film cars. His uses the engine in the Show Me scene when she fixes herself. Christine was also in the Hollywood Christmas Parade in 1983 on tv with Keith Gordon Alexanda Paul & John Stockwell here on KZbin.

[@a1susieq]

Your channel has always been a safe space for me! Watching your videos is literally a comfort thing for me at this point. Keep being you❤️

[@HouseofHannah]

Don't worry, I haven't seen Christine either, so you weren't alone ! Definitely on my list to check out now. I checked my Letterboxd, and I watched No One Gets Out Alive on October 9th, 2021, which I think was shortly after it was released on Netflix.

[@oceanlawnlove8109]

You're the only horror channel i watch regularly - you're a queen

[@christyfielding7498]

Cujo is horrifying and to me. The thought of being stuck in a hot car with your child, no food or water and then your child gets sick?!?!? Noooo that just makes me feel a lot of feelings lol. It is a great movie though.

[@lainiwakura1776]

He didn't get sick, he was starting to die from dehydration. I felt more bad for Cujo because it wasn't his fault, he got rabies from a bat, and no one noticed (but I love dogs and I hear St. Bernards are huge goofballs and the dog actors couldn't do some of the scenes because they were way too friendly).

[@christyfielding7498]

@@lainiwakura1776 yes I know it was a overarching idea of a child needing medical attention. I've seen the movie multiple times and read the book.

[@AnnaPenaMusic]

I’m actually shocked and kinda sad you don’t watch stranger things! Season 4 has amaaaazing horror elements and I feel like you would love it.

[@ejhiggins4925]

Yes! I loved this season!

[@danieladamico5485]

Agree, this season's been amazing so far.

[@Myaccount923]

Season 4 has me curious but honestly it’s a waste of time unless she wants to do it for views. Stranger things hasn’t been good since season 2

[@daijahsbookworld]

@@Myaccount923 it really just depends. season 3 has been my favorite personally. it depends on what you like

[@electricbop]

She seems to like to watch stuff that is straight horror, not things with humor or romance or other elements. That’s why she doesn’t like 80s stuff I guess, and it doesn’t get more 80s than Stranger Things

[@elestrabicodebellavista]

I saw "Nobody Gets Out Alive" and I think it's a great movie that mixes 2 horrors: Being an immigrant without documents and being an object of sacrifice... Christine is a classic, but a good movie by John Carpenter, which is a bit forgotten, is: "Town of the Damned" (1995).

[@lainiwakura1776]

Well when you enter a country illegally...

[@dannydorito9134]

Town of the Dammed is that the film where all the women became pregnant at the same time and all the children are weird and creepy it's got Christopher Reeves in it if it is I don't like that film it gives me the creeps

[@adrigonzalezhernandez2501]

Yes! I watched No One Gets Out Alive this past Halloween with a group of co. workers. It was the only money in the line up that we all watched without talking. It was great. But I do believe it did come out in 2021 😊

[@CJ-OVO]

I love apocalyptic movies as well. I for some reason find them comforting even though I absolutely would have no will to live in those situations. I will put on an apocalyptic movie to help me relax and get sleepy, The Day After Tomorrow and 2012 are favorites for that.

[@rickshaw3645]

Christine is so underrated, really good movie!

[@Alexander-bp2ht]

My dad was a mechanic and really wanted to watch this movie: Christine. It was honestly the one that got me into horror when I was like seven or eight. It paired up nicely with American Graffiti. I'm not sure why it was ditched for the movie but I heard the book is based on a car that's haunted by a ghost similar to our house is haunted by a ghost but the movie went in the direction of a possessed car.

[@kwichris]

Not sure if you have or not, but I recommend you read War of the World by H.G. Wells. It's a very good read, but it will be different from the movie adaptations you're probably used to. I, myself, am not a fan of any of the film productions of the book over the years, but to each their own. The reading of the book over the radio back in the day actually freaked people out; talk about real-world panic that the apocalyptic event has come to pass. Hope you enjoy the read! :)

[@MsBluheart]

There is a 2019 miniseries on Netflix that is much more like the book than anything I have ever seen and it really is quite good. It's the only time I've seen the story where they did not bring it into modern times.

[@kwichris]

@@MsBluheart Well, I'm glad it's period accurate; I'll have to check it out! Thanks! :)

[@brandon17760]

Cujo is actually a good movie though, and book.

[@dedge1191]

Cuuuuuujo is Legend!!!!!!!!

[@BakaNeBaka]

Okay... So I FINALLY checked out Gonjiam (since you've talked about it at least a hundred times by now... Ha) and I DID like it! Many a times I don't like the cheesiness of overtly cutesy Korean banter in these kind of movies but this one was a fun watch with some actually weird scenes. The third season of Love, Death & Robots was lovely ESPECIALLY Jibaro (the last short) was great! The John Carpenter movie reminded me of this HILARIOUS Hindi movie called Taarzan: The Wonder Car which was clearly 'inspired' by the original one you watched😁😁

[@literarylove123]

I love War of the Worlds. That scene with the panicking people & the vehicle always terrifies me. It's too realistic!

[@emiluhh]

I watched War of The Worlds recently too! I've always loved it.

[@kittymama6317]

Oh I loved Christine, scared the crap out of me.

[@devonmunn5728]

I actually know of Shadows Under The Sun. One of of the Golden Girls DVDs they have ads for that film as well as one starring Shiri Appleby

[@Moaritsu]

Thanks for mentioning you won't be alone, watched it last night and loved it. I think the near SA scenes are all pretty similar, it ends very quickly or barely starts. The animal horror, as I recall, mostly happens off screen besides the "feedings" lol

[@ninetyZeven]

[@valeriafabi6823]

as someone who loves horror and doesnt really have boundaries unless its one of those movies that revolve around rape scenes, i think your boundaries on horror are totally valid and i really value your opinion. i also have those moments where im in a sort of horror slump and i tend to watch lots of cutesy movies, doesnt make us any less horror fans

[@ethanhechtner3619]

I remember watching No one Gets out Alive the week of release. Only because I heard about the creature from a blooding disgusting article. I want to say it was early this year. I didn't care for it so I don't really remember. The creature scenes were my fav part.

[@justcutiecats2733]

Stranger Things has so many Easter eggs, you should watch it.

[@adam-l74]

I know what you mean about needing a break from horror sometimes, after a short break I rewatched The Nun, all The Conjuring and Annabelle films last month.

[@goblin_ghoulz]

I absolutely loved No One Gets Out Alive!! I was kinda shocked I didn’t see more about it, and makes sense now since I loved The Ritual too

[@brentmartin1981]

Christine is literally one of my favorite movies of all time, I have probably watched it 80 ties haha. I have also shown it to multiple friends who had never seen it and they all loved it. If they ever did a remake, I just hope that they keep the car a 1958 Plymouth Fury.

[@devonbrian2184]

Depending on how new a movie is, I'll lightly skim through the Wikipedia Plot section for trigger warnings, just a tip. I skim for those key trigger words without ruining it at the same time if that makes sense.

[@jockey7069]

My May top one would be The Flight Attendant season 2 While everyone were hyped about stranger things (that i don't watch either 😳) i was just delighted by the fact it got season 2 and i never heard about it. Just love the way it plays with your brain constantly till the end

[@JMac-27]

Christine was one of my favorites as a kid. I'll forever be grateful to my mom for our weekend scary movie marathons in the 80's and 90's. I'm a car girl too so Christine was a good one for me. Mom introduced us to Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Changeling, The Entity, Witch board, The Omen, Amityville, Deepstar 6 (love an underwater movie of any kind), Alien, Salem's Lot, It's Alive, It Lives, Night of the Living Dead, CHUD, Piranha, The Fog, Audrey Rose, The Exorcist, Silver Bullet, Dreamscape, Cats Eye, Trolls, Dolls, Creepshow, Twilight Zone the movie, Cocoon (more sci Fi but loved these movies) there is just so many.

[@mars5513]

I watched midsommar this month and that’s also how I found your channel and I was honestly kind of disappointed. I have already watched A24 movies before so I knew their style but it was so ridiculous in some scenes that I just had to laugh. Well now I’m going to watch what you recommend to avoid movies like that… 😅

[@mtaffer]

I watched Christine for the first time a couple of years ago and was surprised by how good it was. I also did not watch it because it didn't appeal to me, but i'm really glad I did!

The novel No One Gets Out Alive is one of my favorites. Some very scary scenes in there. Definitely check the trigger warnings before you read it though!

[@RociosLibrary]

The book was so much better than the book. The movie sucked in my opinion 😭

[@ClassicsTv]

Hi I am big fan of your channel and some movies u watched or recommend I did watch. There r three movies u have to see and if u like it and can review it and here there r: 1) Eli 2) Little Evil 3) The Disappearance Of Clifton Hill and they all r on Netflix streaming but "Little Evil" horror comedy if u like that then u going enjoy it and now "The Disappearance Of Clifton Hill" is good one but it can been a slow burn a little bit but hang in there it is worth the watch.

TRIANGLE SPOILER AHEAD! When I rented Triangle on KZbin (I think) the movie glitched right after one of the time loops and started over but the progress bar didn’t go back to the beginning so I thought it was intentional and got about halfway through the movie again until I realized what happened 😅

[@annaschmitz6612]

I finally watched Triangle, after seeing your recommendation of watching it, and I loved it!

[@kirakirakirikiri]

I never thought I'd hear you wish a movie was bloodier. xD

[@bardic_grin]

I think you're thinking of Delivery Man starring Vince Vaughn which is a remake of Starbuck or maybe it is False Positive with Pierce Brosnan. I know there are quite a few shows/movies out there that follow the similar sort of premise of one guy being the father of multiple children. From what I've found so far it is either an average Joe who donated his sperm to a bank (Delivery Man/Starbuck) or a doctor participating in malpractice (Almost Family). Our Father still gave me the creeps though. 😬

[@J0r-El]

I wish we met and became friends. I can go on and on about films. I'm very big on 80s Schwarzenegger Action flicks though, but I'll dive into horror as well with ease.

[@gh0stcat387]

Does anyone like The Legend of Hell House (1973) I feel its a good watch. Kinda corny yes but somewhat disturbing for a PG rating. I dont think I hear it talked about ever. Also I watched the first two seasons of Stranger Things and barely remember watching the third. I thought the first season was okay. Second was not that great. Didn't like the third. I felt some of the acting was not good and it didn't need to go beyond season 2. I dont think anyone is missing out. Thank you for the video I will be checking out some of the new movies you liked 😽😺

I'm seeing sooo many weak flicks now. Everyone is so hung up on doing the artsy movies and although I think artistic elements have their place in the genre I'd love to see a movie that actually scares me. Hereditary was close. I always avoided the exorcist but I finally broke down and watched it with my daughters when they were teenagers. When she came flying down the stairs in a back bend I was suddenly hiding in the the bathroom with no recollection of even getting up from the sofa 😆. That's what I'd love to see in a movie. I'd like some movies that would have me tripping like ole girl at the end of the birds. No! No! NO!!!

I also rewatched Another Earth, Triangle, Christine and Firestarter ('84) last month... I also watched Firestarter ('22) and No One Gets Out Alive.... UNFORTUNATELY I am still waiting to get to watch Men and I'm very excited to see it!! AND Stranger Things 4 part 1 was great, much creepier this season which is always a good thing for me!!! I'm never really in a comedy, romance or action movie genre mood...when I'm looking for a movie, supernatural horror is what I check first, then "all horror", thriller third, then space/apocalypse movies or Alien, UFO, abduction story, true crime, ancient history documentaries
