The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson had been adapted to various mediums countless times, especially since it's a public domain property. However, to my knowledge, it's never really been done in a way that's faithful to the novella, particularly in the fact that Henry Jekyll is not actually the main character. Originally, the story followed Gabriel John Utterson, Jekyll's friend who becomes concerned about his association with Edward Hyde, especially when he finds out that Hyde has been added to Jekyll's will. It's very much a mystery, and it's not until the e ..read more

Just watched these two movies back to back. I had never seen the 1958 Steve McQueen version and it was fun to watch. An interesting peek at 1950’s style. Obviously the FX are dated but I could see it being compelling for its time. I saw the 1988 version in the theater when it came out and the practical effects still hold up pretty well. It’s an amazingly accurate remake of the 1958 version. I am surprised the 1988 Blob movie has fallen into such obscurity when it’s so good!! Also, aren’t we overdue for a new Blob movie!!? submitted by /u/Independent-Tap1315 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Just finished the movie, and wow. I already trust the Cronenberg name, but this shit was great. I have my criticism but was able to suspend that shit and enjoy the ride. As a huge fan of Flashpoint, this was an absolute blast. submitted by /u/Luvcraft0606 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Surprised to see this book in stock in Mondo's warehouse sale. It's been out of print for a long time and very expensive on the secondhand market. If you've been looking for a copy like I have, get on it. https://mondoshop.com/collections/warehouse-finds-sale/products/bleeding-skull-a-1980s-trash-horror-odyssey submitted by /u/BloodRedTed [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

There was a movie that I recall seeing a while back and I have been racking my brain trying to remember the title. The most of the details that I remember is that it was a man, his wife, and baby. Wife gets infected with a disease that turns her into a zombie, she infects the husband, and the husband ends up killing her with some sort of retractable needle. He spends the rest of the movie trying to find a place for the baby before succumbing to the infection himself. If more details is needed, I do remember some of the ending, but for spoiler reasons, I don't wanna post it if it ain't needed ..read more

There was a thread posted in this sub earlier today comparing Jordan Peele’s various movies. Something I noticed was that the vast majority of people assumed Jean Jacket was an alien. When I saw the movie, I thought part of the reveal was that it was almost definitely of terrestrial origin. The only thing that we know about Jean Jacket is that it lives on Earth. Given the whole movie is a commentary on how animals (and people) are treated like objects in the entertainment industry, the logical explanation from a storytelling standpoint is that Jean Jacket is another earthly creature retaliati ..read more

I’m seeing Alien (1979) at the theater tonight, which I’m really stoked for! I’m expecting it to be a great experience. What other movies would you want to/recommend seeing in theater? submitted by /u/CosmicallyConstant [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

My bar is pretty high in the fright department and if that was what I was expecting I'd be disappointed by 99.9% of all horror movies. Now if you give a sense of dread or loss, something unknown that'll do fine. How about you? submitted by /u/ManDe1orean [visit reddit] [comments ..read more

Not only that, but it's hands down the greatest spider movie ever made. As someone who adores these 8 legged creepy crawlies, this was such a blast to watch. This is a serious film, no comedy, no goofy fun, just straight up horror. The characters are so impressively fleshed out, and it surprisingly has quite a bit of heart. The visuals are solid and the use of some real spiders just adds to how well made this was. I really cannot think of a single bad thing about this film, it was just perfect. 10/10 Check it out on Shudder! submitted by /u/Glad_Speed_9684 [visit reddit] [comments ..read more
