I've begun contemplating what Halloween horror marathons to do this year...im definitely thinking a hellraiser marathon will be on the list as i've never marathoned those movies



Years ago on this site, I started a Halloween Movie Recomendation thread that ultimately kicked a$$. Dozens of us threw out horror movie ideas & I was surprised at how many classics the thread introduced me to. I'll see if I can find it. It's been ages. A Hellraiser marathon sounds perfect.

For myself. & yes, watching the old stuff & their often beautiful atmospheric graveyard settings, has started that itch again. How bout you? Do you set up a haunt?
Yep. I mainly do lights all over the place. I have the orange lights ready to go in the garage but my wife won't let me do anything until "at least September for Pete's sake"

Once Upon a Time in Hollywood - 9/10 - I really didn't know how to feel watching this movie. It sort of goes along and has an odd feel, but some amazing acting and the climax is absolutely bonkers. I think a lot of people will check out because of slower pace, but for me it stuck with me for days after seeing it as felt different.

Completely agree.
& I've never had a Tarantino movie stay with me like this one. He semi-dialed back w/ lots of scenes of the main characters just sort of living life, which I really enjoyed. That ending blew my mind. I fed my dog when I got home & really looked at the can.

This is a small example of what I do.

I do monsters etc... I just never feel comfortable leaving my stuff out after I go to bed, so I end up taking most of it down late on Halloween. Still, I use a lot of flood lights, stakes in the ground, etc.... It's a bit%^ to take down.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

What does one movie have to do with the other except to both be Westerns?

Shazam (3D)

8.5/10

the 3D sucked, but the movie was much better than I thought it would be, I really enjoyed it quite a bit
