< Two-Headed Shark Attack and Six-Headed Shark Attack.

I mean . . . what happened to three, four, and five?

Naturally I went on the hunt. Seems there is a Three-Headed and a Five-Headed, just not streaming. Wherefore Four? Where?! There is no Four! >

Turns out, Five-Headed Shark Attack has both a four-headed and five-headed shark. Ta-da!

Turns out when the four-headed shark is killed, it immediately mutates. Its tail mutates into a fifth head. *nods seriously*

That is why there is no Four-headed Shark Attack movie. How do I know this? Because I just tracked down and viewed Five-Headed Shark Attack, natch.

It is a truly terrible movie.


One of the great mysteries of the decade solved.

Just watched a showing of The Exorcist in the theater. Just had to tell somebody.

Holy Cats!!!

In the theatre?!

That takes nerve. I'd be burrowing under a seat.

I saw it in a theater a few years ago and it was awesome.
Once that super long exorcism scene started it got dead quiet in the theater. Pretty good for a movie that’s 51yrs old!

Wow. That is way too hardcore for me. I mean, groundbreaking movie, but I can't watch that on the small screen. I've tried.

With blanked, muted, and all the lights on.

Nope.

It’s still totally effective in every way.

Lol yeah, it takes a lot to scare me. Although jump scares usually get me.

I don’t find The Exorcist scary as much as intense. It’s really an intense movie. I mean, scary too, but mostly just a tension film—but probably the best tension film of all time.

I actually agree with this. It's not SCARY to me per se but it works amazingly well as a drama. Demons aren't nearly as scary as watching a mother lose her shit because no one really knows what going on with her daughter.

It's the tension that gets me!

I can handle too much. It's really more that than the gore in slasher flicks that make them a no go. I have a no-go check list.

-no child harm
-no animal harm
-can I view w/o inducing a heart attack.

Pretty simple really.

 

[Endless_Night]

What does it mean if one is unnerved to open PMs due to a situation of one's own making?

I feel there might be a lesson here.


Note: This is an entirely rhetorical question.

What if the kid is an asshole?
In Speilberg’s remake of War of the Worlds I was really hoping the daughter would get eaten by the aliens. God she was annoying! Also, that movie sucked!

Oh, teenagers are totally fair game.

So, turned out its was sealant rather than caulk. A fine distinction hitherto unknown to my little self. Supposedly it is easier to work with than caulk.

I question this assertion

Strongly.

What a mess.

Once again, a trip into the long forgotten dark and dank archives of horror films, I found this (and also learned that Bela is orginially pronounced "Bay-la): White Zombie (1932)

This is ah-mazing precode zombie movie with Bela Lugosi!!!

With kinda an unfortunate name.

 

[Endless_Night]

White Zombie (1932).

Turns out there was a sequel! A rather terrible sequel, apparently, without Bela Lugosi, but a sequel. Revolt of the Zombies (1936).

It's interesting to me how much the zombie form has evolved since this first representation. These zombies are controllable. The state is induced by ingestion of a poison, followed by death. The weird thing is that if the zombie master dies, the victims are released from being zombies. That would be whether he gave them the potion, or not.

At no point is it explained how the second reanimation results in a living person.

Very old style Hollywood, replete heavy makeup and overacting. Still a great movie! Nice Bela Lugosi performance.

Also, sealant clean up is the devil.

“Not everything that is more difficult is more meritorious”

I stumbled onto this Thomas Aquinas quote today. It feels . . . apropos.

Watched Werewolves Within (2021) at @hotwords229_A's suggestion.

It was good! Weird little flick that does a great job of mixing horror and humor. The two leads have great chemistry. There's a bit of chaos as the group loses their already questionable wits when they realize a werewolf is about. Probably more realistically presented (if humorously edged) than the usually depicted behavior in those situations.

. . . . . .

Errr. Let me rephrase. Than usually depicted behavior in those situations in horror movies.

I never saw that movie. I think I recommended the other one that you didn’t like. Something about a mountain, snow mountain werewolf, or something like that.

Oh! My mistake.

I can't remember. It's a little back in the thread. And I didn't dislike it. Definately worth the watch!! The main character was just a little overtly neurotic. I mean, I'm overly erratic enough on my own.

Good old Thomas was right.
