@Bobby Boulders Did you ever find anything on that lesbian vampire movie? I still haven't, I only remember like 2 scenes so it's not much to go on.

Nah, playboy. I searched for something similar to what you described, and I don't even know.

It still bothers me.

Prince of Darkness (1987).

Man, I can't stand that movie. It was the beginning of the end for John Carpenter. When it was clear he had run out of ideas and was just recycling images and shots. Insects and occasional body horror over constant academic musings about physics and religion.

The only good thing about this movie is that John Carpenter was still using his creepy synth music instead of the hard rock or techno music he used in his later movies.

See, I thought that was one of his most underrated movies, and one of the more underrated movies in the entire genre. Movie just caught me with a sense of dread that ramped up throughout the proceedings.

The soundtrack is phenomenal, at least we can agree on that.

Yeah Prince of Darkness was damn good. Looked very cheap to make but it's possibly his darkest movie, no pun.

Are you talking about Vampyres (1974)?

A great video of Electric Wizard's Malfiore and the movie:

I was in the same camp as you the first time I saw Prince of Darkness.

I remember being super excited when I found a Carpenter film I had yet to see and the fact that it didn't live up to the impossibly high bar set by some of his earlier films definitely deflated my first viewing experience.

I waited a year or two and revisited Prince of Darkness without the high expectations I had the first time and actually loved it. That's not to say that it is as good as Halloween, The Thing, The Fog etc. but it is a solid film imo.

I actually prefer Prince of Darkness to In the Mouth of Madness which is overrated imo.

Watched Road Games and He Never Died (both more thriller than horror but still horror themed). Neither movie was very good, that's what I get for looking for horror movies on Netflix.

I didn't like In the Mouth of Madness very much either.

I thought they both suffered from the same problem, which was a somewhat directionless and themeless story, with most of the horror visuals and effects not really tied into what the apparent overall threat was.

It seemed like Carpenter just had some leftover body horror props from The Thing or whatever, so he would throw it into movies whether or not they fit the story or nature of the villain.

I thought Prince of Darkness was the slightly more shapeless story and incoherent threat, while I thought the soundtrack to In the Mouth of Madness was just plain annoying.

Right around In the Mouth of Madness, Carpenter started dropping the beat hard when the end credits started to roll at the end of his movies, as if he were congratulating himself, and it just emphasized how much the quality of his movies had slipped from when he didn't do that.

Ive never seen Mouth of Madness...should I?

I like in the mouth of madness, but I know it has some serious issues. I really like the story, not so much the execution.
Julie Carmen or whatever the main actress's name is, is like the fucking worst actress ever. She looks like a man in drag and have been thinking the whole movie is a metaphor for having a sex change/becoming a tranny but I need to discuss it with the Ambien Walrus a little more.

I watch this movie at least once a month....it is just the story I guess and I like the parts around the time he starts reading the books to when he is in hobbs end.

You know what today is? it's mommies day and your my mommy. --- lol creepy little slutty girl.

yes, it is the best lovecraft movie not based on lovecraft

Doesn't look like either of those are it. Bobby and I have had trouble finding it, mostly due to my lack of a description probably. I was really young when i watched it, before 2005 at least, it was from Blockbuster. It was a B-Movie, i remember a scene where the girl that wasn't a vampire and the girl that was a vampire start making out in a convertible jeep (pretty sure it was a jeep) and the vampire starts to go down on the other girl (who i think is blonde) and the camera shows a bite mark on her upper thigh. Other than that all i can remember is that the dad of the blonde girl is involved somehow, like he realizes what's going on and tries to save his daughter or something. I remember 2 scenes, the Jeep scene and something about the trunk of a car being opened, the dad opens it to look for a weapon i think.

I saw Road Games the other day, definitely wanst what I was expecting. Poor really.

@Bobby Boulders @Friday The 13th @Pixelated Porn

Holy hell, i found it. I think it may have been something you guys said the first time i asked about it, but it's Vampires vs Zombies (2004)



The full movie is on YouTube.

Man, without the lesbian part it sounds like Vampires (with james woods and sheryl lee). It has a jeep and I think she gets bit in the thigh, but no lesbos.
I think once bitten has a dude bit in the thigh.

Maybe it is a vampire movie based of Carmilla (fanu story that stoker copied from quite a bit). Many movies made on this.

Moth diaries is kind of a vampire movie at an all girls boarding school but no jeep.

I did see one recently with two chicks kind of lesbo stuff made in eastern europe and the girls dad was like excavating this castle. forget the name. And like some general was there being an asshole.

edi: just saw your last post, ha, found it.

 

[melvinj0]

Saw Lights Out earlier tonight. I'd say its like a 6.5/10, a bit better than I expected it to be. There are some really cool scenes (really liked the opening scene), and I think if it had been R it probably could have been so much better, but for a PG-13 Jump Scare type movie it actually wasn't bad.

 

[Crashdog]

Im already celebrating Halloween I've watched Death MAchine and the whole Black Mirror Series. I've tried starting AMerican Horror Story, but after watching Black Mirror it's almost a joke. So I'm trying to get into The Strain which seems a lot better than AHS. Also, I just learned about them but Lemax Spooky Town and Department 56 Scary Towns are kinda cool. I just picked up my first pieces for $10 at Michaels. My wife already hates me for it, but just wait until the village starts growing with buildings. HAHAHAHA

I have a list of about 50 horror movies i need to see before Halloween, including mostly recent stuff that I don't have the money to go see in a THeatre.

Black Mirror is so damn amazing. Everyone with Netflix who hasn't watched it yet needs to asap

 

[IloveTHIS]

I'm going to give Black Mirror a watch tonight. I've never heard of it until now so I'm glad I checked out this thread.

I've hit the absolute bottom of the barrel as far as horror movies are concerned. I've seen practically every single movie from the last 20 years thats supposed to be somewhat good.
