Horror is popping off lately as a genre. A generation of people who grew up obsessed with creepypasta are getting into the film industry and it's gonna create some bangers.
Also some hot buckets of wet shit but hey

Also us 80s kids that grew up with a golden age of horror that went on through the 90s.
Personally with all these genre remakes of film into miniseries I want to see a remake of event horizon as a single season series.
🥱
You can do better than a lazy emoji. What is yawn worthy?

It’s a reboot of an adaptation. Those seldom go well.
Ok
Not really feeling it personally but does look like it could be better than the other movies.
The official trailer has a lot of cliches. I'm a horror fan and have seen a lot. I need a bit more to pull me in.
Yea the bar for good horror has been underground for a while now.
True, I'm more into extreme horror which you won't see a lot of in the mainstream.
"extreme horror" sounds sus to me
Like when someone says extreme horror I think of snuff films. You should probably clarify what you mean.

Fuck yeah dude. I’ve been on a RE kick lately too, was playing the remake of 4 with my spouse (the crashes got too bad so we’re taking a break. I cannot figure out what the issue is and it happens on both of our PCs) and I’ve been playing the remake of 2 on my steam deck in the meantime (it runs shockingly well)
This reminds me I never finished RE2 remake I gotta do that.
Eh. We have been getting a ton of horror, but a pittance of it is actually good. Some of the best horror movies being released are not even advertised in the genre.
Wow aren't you cool hating on my enthusiasm for one of my favorite creators making a movie about one of my favorite games that also looks like one of the rare genuinely good video game adaptations. Damn you're sooo cool. Nice week old account btw.
?? I wasn't hating. I don't care about being cool. As a fellow 80s kid, I was putting my two cents in on your comment. I have no idea what favorite creator, movie, or game you are talking about here.
And yeah, I am new here. What does that matter?
Okay but you are commenting on my post then without even watching the trailer I linked which is even more ridiculous lol.
The RE movie does look like a lot of fun
Yes it does. Of course some asshole comes in here with a brand new account to shit on my post while making no actual discernible point except "not all horror is marketed as horror"
