Comment on Elm Street Remake Trailer by BIGJ

BIGJ — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 06:36:59 +0000

I for one is against remakes. Here is why. The Last Jason movie was in 2003 or ‘04. It is too soon to remake Friday the 13, nightmare, or even Halloween, when the last sequel is still fresh. The orginal series never really ended, each series had an open end for another sequel.

That is an unusually tolerant miniature schnauzer. My Fred would never have put up with a costume, let alone more than one. And he would have never stopped barking.

Comment on Let the Right One In Blu-ray With Commentary by Hal Masonberg

The only downside to the UK version is that it does not have a lossless audio track. The audio track on the US release is exquisite. I will be waiting for that Blu-ray with the proper subtitles AND lossless track. But if the audio is not that important to you, the UK release is certainly the way to go. They came soooo close to getting it right. They would have made a fortune if they hadn’t skimped on this one point…

i saw ‘the children’ a few weeks ago and couldn’t agree more — it was really good. by far the best of this batch of ghost house releases…

Did you watch The Children yet? That’s the only Ghost House one I’ve seen so far and I thought it was surprisingly good.

I’ve never quite understood the ferocity of the remake backlash, either. For one, no one is forced to sit through a particular film. Outraged that Rob Zombie undertook HALLOWEEN? Don’t see it. Simple as that. Consumer dollars speak louder to film companies than any blog or website. In addition, there seems to be some underlying emotional response to the remake — that to touch BLACK CHRISTMAS’ source material somehow tarnishes the orginal film. That’s just silly; it does no such thing. Carpenter’s HALLOWEEN will always be Carpenter’s HALLOWEEN, and nothing Rob Zombie or anyone can do in terms of reimaginings, remakes, or sequels will ever change that. Your MACBETH analogy is perfect — look how many plays and musicals are “revived” on Broadway. They’re simply a re-interpretations of the same source material. Like you, I’m always intrigued to see someone else’s interpretation of the same source material and how it varies in the context of generation, budget, new techniques in filmmaking, etc.

That said, as a writer, I do somewhat bemoan the room these remakes take up on film studios’ release slates. There are so many outstanding works of horror fiction out there that are begging for film adapatation. Great, original works of horror that would enhance the genre, give filmgoers something different…terrors of a new kind. It would be nice to see imagination make a comeback.

Right now, remakes are safe bets for film studios. They’re easy to recycle and relatively inexpensive to make, with a built-in core audience of loyalists to accompany a whole new generation of horror fans to the multiplex. As long as they make money, they’ll continue to be produced and distributed.

those scenes were probably cut out for length.

in addition to the surfing, i like how they use the one hockey mask from the series that jason doesn’t actually wear (the one from part 5) on the new blood poster.

I gotta say, some of those are really fantastic. Though I don’t recall a surfing scene in Friday VII, or werewolf cunnilingus in An American Werewolf in London. I guess it’s in the subtext.

Comment on The Most Disturbing Horror Films Ever Made – Part II by Dark Side

Great list! Finally, I have DVD fodder to last me through Halloween. Some of these even I wasn’t aware of so I’m glad to get the heads-up. Thanks, guys!

P.S. I think “Inside” and “Martyrs” would top my list.

Comment on The Most Disturbing Horror Films Ever Made – Part II by The Film Reel

The Film Reel — Fri, 04 Sep 2009 00:33:17 +0000

Great lists there and I would agree with you for the most part. Some of those films I have watched and didn’t find them too bad, Funny Games being the least disturbing to me. I found the original one a little more intense but it probably has to do with the different languages. I always wonder if a foreign film has more impact with me when it’s harder to notice the acting imprefections due to a language I don’t speak.

As for this list, I would add August Underground’s Mordum. It almost made me sick to my stomach and the wave of nauseau took about an hour to get over. This film has no redeeming quality whatsoever and I can’t imagine it serving any other purpose then to sicken the viewer. I actually have two of the three films in the series but after watching the one I can’t bring myself to see the other.

Just purchased The Descent on Blu-Ray the other day even though I already own the DVD. It was one of my favorite horror movies in year. Still have yet to watch it but I’m excited to see it in HD. Good recommendations on the other ones too.

I recall very little about the original Messengers ~ it didn’t make much of an impression either way. I don’t believe it had a scarecrow in it, so I doubt the original is prerequisite viewing for the sequel.

I’ve never seen the first Messengers, but killer scarecrow movies always pique my interest. Do I need to track down the original?
