I weirdly don't understand this. Like I know he wasn't making Robert Downey Jr. Iron Man money, but he hadn't played Ash in 20 years to begin with, and they were brainstorming a season 4 before the cancellation. So with all this talk about Netflix petitions and the potential it could get picked up elsewhere, why quit? He didn't seem to have any major problems with the showrunners and his cast mates hadn't bad mouthed him that I'm aware of (or vice versa). So why retire now? After Burn Notice he wasn't doing a ton of stuff until AvsED that I can remember.

Super excited for this. The original is one of my favorite films and hopefully this does it justice.
Has anyone caught an advance screening of Hereditary? To me it didn't seem all that interesting but apparently it's blowing people's minds.

TBH, I'm not sure what to think. The trailer makes it out to be a lot of "Jamie Lee Curtis buries the hatchet" like H20 was, and with just as much cringe in between.
The tone feels off. Like they're trying to force a "Heeeere's Michael!" thing. Way too much gratuitous showing off of Michael along with predictable kills and bad set ups to them. What made the original great was how much in the background Michael stayed for the first hour and 15 minutes of the movie. He's an ever present shape in the background. It doesn't work when you have him up front and center in the daylight showing him off like he's on parade. Maybe the trailer is just showing all the money shots up front, but honestly the tone of it feels off. It feels like they're trying to sell Michael instead of the cast which is what worries me. The worst thing a horror movie can do is under develop the victims. Halloween has always remained a cut above the rest because it developed its characters to where you care about whether they live or die. You spend an hour getting to know them instead of seeing them knocked off 20 minutes after their introduction.
I think you can sell a modern audience Halloween without every shot having Michael in it. Part of Halloween is the feeling of dread it creates. That tingle on the back of your neck that you're being watched. This trailer didn't seem to want to sell me a scary movie, it seemed to want to sell me "Michael Myers & Laurie Strode: here they are together again!"

Well, I just read the script for "The Nun".
I thought it was pretty well done...it expands the franchise in any interesting way. It also has the makings to be the most atmospheric and theatrical of the franchise.
BTW, the marketing is right, it is the darkest of the Conjuring movies - I can't believe they'll get anything other than an R for this.

Weird. They just announced a TV series continuing the original series. Guessing we'll get a new chucky instead of Brad Dourif for this?

I finally got around to watching Truth or Dare yesterday and uhh...it was a good concept but they apparently changed the rules with 2 truths and a dare being the new thing I guess? The unrated version apparently has more gruesome deaths and the version I watched wasnt that.

Rhedo, what the hell dude? I’ve seen multiple documentaries and reports that an undiagnosed intestinal blockage killed her. I am not one to take everything at face value, but for these sites to drudge up the name of a dead girl that has been dead for 30 years seems pretty shady and shitty to me.
