Nosferatu - 2024

Re: Nosferatu - 2024

I love the original for the creepy atmosphere and I’m not sure if that can be successfully recreated. I just hope the remake doesn’t turn into a gore galore fest. Hopefully the remake will spur on...

Christmas Evil (1980)
Delves more into the mind of a madman than an actual slasher flick. Not in the same class as Black Christmas but a watchable festive horror.

The Vengeance Trilogy is brutal and certainly not for the faint hearted. I think Lady Vengeance is the most extreme of the three.

Cruel Intentions (1999)
Teen version of Dangerous Liaisons. Some decent acting and a very un-pc script makes me wonder how this would be received if it was made today?

I avoid modern horror. I’m a big horror fan but a gore galore CGI fest makes me ZZZZZZ, so I now stay away. Many great horror films are gore free with an absorbing atmosphere. This seems vacant...

So sorry to hear. I’ve only been posting here for a few years but I’ve always been keen to read his thoughts and reviews. He’ll be greatly missed here on MoFo and by those who knew and loved him.

Close the curtains, turn off the lights, crank up the sound. Event Horizon is more lightly to make you s”*# your pants. This gets my vote.
