yeah it was really good, I think those type of films are my favourite. I really enjoy a film that gets you thinking what the hell is happening, whats going to happen next and how will it end.Also i've never seen someone battered to death before with a can of stew, that's a new one for me

A New Nightmare is so good. I wasn't expecting that sort of quality from sequel number 6.

Not a horror as such but the new Purge film is awesome

Just the change of location from a house to the open city made a big difference.

You also have a political and class side of things with some pretty cool action.

I didn't know this but Michael Bay was also an executive producer.

They want to make a film based on the very first purge.

nice, yeah that would be an interesting idea as well as to how the first purge came about and how people acted.

The first Purge is on Now TV at the minute - would you say it's worth a go then? (I have a month's free movie sub and intend to flog it to within an inch of its life!)

The first Purge movie is pretty forgettable. It's alright, as home invasion thrillers go, but it's a waste of a premise. The entire 'Crime is legal' synopsis basically boils down to nothing more than 'We can't call the police'. There's much better examples out there of an otherwise pretty tired subgenre.

I've got high hopes for the sequel because it at least appears to do something with the premise.

I'll give it a go anyway, I guess. I have watched much, much worse thrillers/horror films in the past few years. :fp:

There's only two I turned off. This:

(Dead Silence. Maybe I wasn't in the mood but it was just gooseberry fool.)

And V/H/S - I couldn't make out what anyone was saying. I like found footage stuff, but this was just cack. Only lasted 10 minutes.

I turned off Dead Silence too :lol:

i was at the other end of things then with The Purge, i thought it was pretty great and had some interesting underlying story to it.

Haha , i watched it all the way through, it was okish but very predictable and typical run of the mill ghost/horror film. Easy watch though.

I watched dead silence and it scared the strawberry floating gooseberry fool out of me... But to be fair I was wasted in legal highs at the time. Hell, to be fair my cat scares me when I'm tripping.

Watched The Borderlands at the weekend.

Decent, I thought. Very, very British. Not the scariest film you'll ever see, (though there was one jump that really caught me out: embarrassed myself in front of the Mrs and dog :fp:

)

Recommended overall, though, and no spoilers but it absolutely did not end how I expected. :lol:

PostRe: Horror Films by **Skarjo** » Mon Aug 04, 2014 1:41 pm

Is that the one in the church? With gooseberry fool ending?

Yes, that's it.

Major Borderlands ending spoiler.

Ended up in the gut of some monster, being dissolved by its acid. I'm not quite sure how it was a 'found footage' film. :fp:

Is it on Netflix's?

If not i'll get it off the high seas.

No, I watched it on Now TV.

Bump for the approach of Halloween. Is there anything coming out/been out recently that we should be looking at?

Season three of American Horror is out on DVD on the 20th, so I may get that and aim for a bit of a marathon, as Halloween falls on a Friday this year.

I've just done some digging and Afflicted is just out on DVD, it seems to have reasonable reviews. 79% favourable on Rotten Tomatoes, which is quite high for a horror. Has anyone seen it?

13 Sins is great for a straight-to-video film!
