abduleez1:These days, I watch movies by directors I like and not necessarily actors I like. I enjoyed watching "Sinners" and yeah it is not the best horror movie to come out this year, it's just one of the best to me, like let's say top five. I am not going to lie, I watched "Bring her back" because of Sally Hawkins. I have loved her since "The shape of water". She always gives a keen performance. I was so mad at her character for killing poor Andy, he only wanted to protect his sister. But I guess grief can turn you crazy and evil. Okay so while I enjoyed "Weapons," I had a lot of questions after watching it. Why couldn't Alex have stolen Aunt Gladys wand and broken it to save his parents since he already learnt how to perform the ritual? Also why didn't Aunt Gladys just use Justine as a weapon, it would have made her work easier. Anyway I enjoyed watching the interaction between the crackhead homeless guy and the police (Justine's ex) it was so funny. I also loved when the children ripped Aunt Gladys apart, it was so satisfying. I have been watching a lot of horror recently. I watched "Heretic", it was so good like very dark and disturbing. I also have watched almost all of Jang-jae-hyun movies, "The priests", "Exhuma", The priest: Dark Nuns". I am yet to watch "Svaha: the sixth finger". I saw "Together" a while ago , it was pretty interesting. I have been watching some series too, I watched season two of "Wednesday" and i finally started watching season two of "The end of the f**king world". Of course I do watch movies in other languages as long as it falls under the genre I like. |

nahr:Sinners was good but yeah, I'll agree with you, so far based on the limited numbers of horror I've watched this year it's among the best but far off the pecking order against Weapons and Bring Her Back. Sally Hawkins — I got to pay more attention to her from The Shape of Water.....it's a pretty good film but I thought that film was a little overhyped when it released and shouldn't have won Best Picture that year compared to the quality of the competition it faced off with. But for Hawkins? I got no issue with her performance, she was top tier that year. I love Guillermo Del Toro but The Shape of Water win wasn't it for me. Nightmare Alley for me would be GDT's best movie, my favourite would be Pan's Labyrinth. Pinnochio was also very good. I'm eagerly anticipating Frankenstein coming out this October. Okay so while I enjoyed "Weapons," I had a lot of questions after watching it. Why couldn't Alex have stolen Aunt Gladys wand and broken it to save his parents since he already learnt how to perform the ritual?

Anyway I enjoyed watching the interaction between the crackhead homeless guy and the police (Justine's ex) it was so funny. I also loved when the children ripped Aunt Gladys apart, it was so satisfying.On Weapons, why Alex couldn't do it earlier was probably because he was still a kid and was still in shock and didn't really know how to react and what to do. Aunt Gladys was also cautious and didn't let her guard down till the final moments. And that final day was the best chance for Alex to show any resistance since he's proved to be docile and amiable to her. She let her guard down thinking she had a home run already so it worked against her. Yeah, the homeless dude vs the cop were so hilarious. Truly satisfying ending I tell you. I have been watching a lot of horror recently. I watched "Heretic", it was so good like very dark and disturbing. I also have watched almost all of Jang-jae-hyun movies, "The priests", "Exhuma", The priest: Dark Nuns". I am yet to watch "Svaha: the sixth finger". I saw "Together" a while ago , it was pretty interesting. I have been watching some series too, I watched season two of "Wednesday" and i finally started watching season two of "The end of the f**king world".Heretic was top tier and one of the good things to have come out of horror genre last year. Fully introduced me to that actress Sophie Thatcher. I have her in my sights now. Jang Jae-Hun was so effing top tier with Exhuma.... easily the best horror film I watched this year. I look forward to more of his filmography. Together and Wednesday S2 downloaded but yet to start.... Since you're already into foreign language films and deeply in the horror genre, I'd suggest you watch Na Hong-Jin's The Wailing— that film has automatically been my best horror film of all time with the superb storytelling and history it displayed with excellent performances. Quite similar to Exhuma. Do well to also watch Park Chan Wook's Oldboy. It's not necessarily horror but it's one of the absolute top tier foreign language films to watch at least once in a lifetime if you're deep in international films. It's a narrative masterpiece. Top tier introduction into the director. Someone to put into your list. A master of troubled people and morally gray characters, controversial themes and easily one of the best directors currently in the game. |

It has been a very long time I watched a movie where, the villain got what he/she deserves. In some recent movies I've watched, the villain is almost always unalived by being shot, knocked done by a car or annoyingly, ends up in jail, regardless of the lives they have destroyed. While watching Weapons, before the last 15 minutes, the movie was 6/10 for me. However, when the film got to the last 12 minutes and the end, I quickly added another 2.5 making it 8.5/10, I was so happy with what those kids did to that witch. The "dismantling' of the villain was satisfying. This is simply "you get what you deserve". |

Code 3: 6/10 Code 3 isn’t the slapstick comedy the cover suggests, so if you’re expecting laughs, you’d be disappointed. What you get instead is a gritty drama laced with dark humor, a raw dive into burnout and America’s broken healthcare system. Rainn Wilson anchors it with a sharp performance that makes the heavy themes land, which explains its strong ratings online, but ultimately it’s a solid one-time.

Play Dirty:5.8/10 If you're a fan of Mark Wahlberg, you'd probably like this one..... just turn off your brain and enjoy. The film delivers a mix of action, suspense, and underworld intrigue.

jiggar:Do you think the defeat of the villain in every action movies is unreal? When you look at the fact that life is not black and white. Bad people get what they want most times. Oyaskii what do you think? You are stakeholder in the industry |
| Re: What Movie Are You Watching Now? by oyaskii(m): 9:08am On Oct 04, 2025 |
Arizoner:The concept of "action movies" been unreal because more often than not, the bad guys always meet there Waterloo, is naunced in how our social human construct is. The ultimate social construct is that Good always triumph over evil" and so Movies try tries as much as possible to portray this. People watch films for emotional release or carthasis if you will, so seeing a villain topped, provides somewhat of a satisfying end that encapsulates the purpose of seeing movies in the first place. There is also a commercial angle for film studios too, Happy endings sell better. But, some few films have flipped the switch , with the villain riding into the sunset in the end, and the film still went on to be memorable but the script writers have to write the hell out of the villain and the cast villain has to have an endearing performance to booth...Kevin Spacey in "The Usual Suspects" (1997), Javier Bardem in "No Country for Old Man" (2007), Heath Ledger in "TDK" (2010), Joker so good, he forced the DK to bend his moral compass, and created the chaos he intended from the beginning. These villainous performances were so good, you'd have no choice but to root for them 😩. I will close with this, During the Hey Days of the MCU, they had this meticulous run of "Thanos" played by Josh Brolin, acquiring the infinity stones, from various movies, till it culminated in "Avengers: Infinity War" (2018), buildup so good, everyone wanted to see what this Thanos fella was all about and boy did he deliver!, and did exactly what he set out to do... Josh Brolin delivered such a masterclass, that you couldn't just help but wish him the best! 😩...I remember the day i saw it, at the end when he snapped his fingers, and everything went bleep, and the movie credits immediately rolled up with one sad score...the entire cinema went dead silent, but after about 5 minutes, we all started applauding, because after that all timer performance that we just saw, perhaps, Bro deserve that much, to yank half of life off, some of us in the crowd even started to see reasons with the purple fella 😩🙈....so that's a perfect example of when a villain in a movie doesn't upset the "Good over Evil" social construct....but of course, he got his purple behind duly clapped, in the very next movie, and then overzealous Avengers undid bro's hard work, fgs...and the MCU stocks plummeted ever since then, so perhaps probably Thanos was right 😅 |

Guillermo Del Toro na Odogwu for this thing!!! 🙌🏽🙌🏽 Anything, misunderstood monsters? Leave am for am . My most anticipated horror project for the year. I love the juxtaposition between these two trailers. Frankenstein's view and the Creature's account. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8aulMPhE12g?si=gSfRtSlAA5al0xkv https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x--N03NO130?si=6hZClAmYDgib1zs9 |
