The Stingray Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 Im willing to bet this is another Babadook, amazing reviews, poor horror movie Horror movies only seem to be good nowadays when they add humour. Scares are non-existent in todays horrors, or maybe ive just grown up. I think it's the latter. Past a certain age you just don't scare easily. Btw, I agree with you that Babadook wasn't scary, but I still think it's a good movie. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's more creepy than scary and yes, it's a very good film. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baumer Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I still think you can scare people. Or maybe I just scare easily. Babadook was anything but. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bishop54 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I still think you can scare people. Or maybe I just scare easily. Babadook was anything but. It's not one of your unsophisticated slasher films, so if you were looking for that of course you weren't going to enjoy it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Babadook had an atmosphere that stuck with me afterwards. I'm hoping this film delivers in that department as well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hatebox Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I scare easily and don't enjoy being scared, so don't watch horror movies at the cinema. Were that not the case I'd probably watch this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Stingray Posted February 24, 2015 Author Share Posted February 24, 2015 (edited) It's not a horror film. And yes, I was looking for a horror film. It's psychological horror, baumer. Like Rosemary's Baby or something. Or is that not horror either? Edited February 24, 2015 by The Stingray 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seduh Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I love The Babadook, it was a great film. I hope this film imitates it 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoolioD1 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 why are we even talking about the babadook here? just because this is another horror that got good reviews? I'm not sure they're comparable beyond that. btw I'm not really on either team regarding the babadook. I thought it was just ok. essie davis was spectacular though. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there isn't a hockey mask or bladed fingers involved it isn't horror. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RichWS Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Suppose I might roll out for this. Only horror flick I've paid to see in the last 5 years was The Conjuring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyGossamer Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 Seeing It Follows and What We Do In The Shadows this coming Monday. Hoping both are my tempo. Oh... People are mentioning Babadook because it was low budget horror film from a young, unknown filmmaker that picked up steam at film festivals just like It Follows.

Blankments Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Went into this without knowing anything except the STD allegory. Fucking fantastic that's what it is, and I'm not a horror fan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tonytr87 Posted March 31, 2015 Share Posted March 31, 2015 Greatest horror film I've seen in a long time. Not the absolute scariest, but it's got ten times more style and talent than the majority of the genre. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
