  • perhaps you jest but avoiding that particular category in perpetuity probably wouldn't be super difficult

    like queer cinema alone comes with such a large catalogue that some folks will routinely watch nothing but all thru june.

  • i believe i must have seen my first horror movie (puppet master) around that age too. definitely well before i started first grade lol.

    yeah i used to be kind of a miserable asshole all the time & in retrospect i think i kept seeking out more & more vile stuff because it was a way for me to process trauma from the comfort of my bed. i'm in a much better place now so a lot of the shit that used to not bother me has become a hard pass.

    while it still remains a special interest i'd say the way i engage with it has changed p drastically over the years.

  • i mean i wouldn't worry about it too much. loads of more interesting filmmakers in the world :3

    horror is something of a special interest of mine which ig is why i used to feel kinda weird not loving all these dudes unconditionally that people are raving about constantly... but i've noticed that quite a lot of horror fans (online at least) seem somewhat allergic to films outside of their niche so maybe it's a matter of exposure.

    these days i think all my favourite horror (beyond like goofy b-schlock that largely works because it doesn't) is up there precisely because they're not just straightforward genre films. & yeah i definitely have an appreciation for the italian stuff but for that i blame my habitual self medication

    a good portion of it is connected to the uh adult cinema of the time & i get that not everyone finds stylish but nonsensical sleaze cathartic.

    i hope i'm not coming across too insufferable here

    i'd be happy to provide recs should you ever find yourself in need of some

    re : carpenter

    i hesitate to call any of his other movies shit after vampires

    like sure prince of darkness puts me to sleep but at least the concept is kinda cool. halloween is honestly high art in comparison. even his weaker films tend to have something to enjoy but vampires is where the macho bs
    truly took over. it cannot be overstated just how aggressively awful it is. like just thinking about the fact that i ever gave it another chance makes my blood boil

    anyway yeah i'm familiar with most of his work but the thing & they live are the only ones i ever feel like revisiting anymore.

  • they were trying to push like cricket sausage & similar stuff where i'm from some years back. it wasn't exactly horrible & i'm all for the concept but sadly the texture was a deal breaker for me. it was like v powdery & dry.

    beyond that i was the class clown so naturally i'd devour whatever crawlies i could find around the yard

  • carpenter is v hit or miss in general tbh, but yeah, never been crazy about halloween. i get that the first one ended up being hugely influential, but they were already making more exciting films in the same vein in italy.

  • hmm? oh. no, I'm afraid you'll have to make do with however many sensible chuckles you can still rattle off of the bastard.

    what, do you think nazis just fall down from the sky or something?

  • bit late but uh yes hello i would like to goblin >:3c

  • yeah partner & i are often watching stuff i know for sure will do me in & i find myself looking forward to it in a way. turns out it actually is kind of a cleansing experience!
