CAPTURE (2026) - This one was a hidden gem on Tubi.
A young woman receives a phone call that she has inherited a house that once belonged to her mother and father, whom she never knew.  When she arrives, she finds the house has a dark reputation with the locals - she also finds a 30 year old video camera and a box of home movies from the 1990's, which reveal a dark secret surrounding the deaths of her parents and a dozen or so other people that were murdered at the site.
   You would think a haunted VHS video camera sounds like a dumb premise, but this movie makes it terrifying!
4.5/5

Quote from: Archivist on September 20, 2026, 09:56:40 PM@zombie no.one - This brings up a good point. Is there a checklist of franchise part themes?

- origins

- remake

heh, I did this thread about this last year

here's what we ended up with:

Quote...STRIKES BACK
RETURN OF... (or ...RETURNS)
THE REVENGE (or REVENGE OF...)
SON OF...
BRIDE OF...
RESURRECTION(S)
BEGINNING(S)
THE FINAL CHAPTER
AWAKENING (or AWAKENS)
"2000"
RISE OF...
ANOTHER
SALVATION
CURSE OF...
RESURGENCE
BLOODLINE(S)


- of course 'In Space' is another sequel cliché as you pointed out, but very few actually use that phrase in the title... although coincidentally LEPRECHAUN 4: IN SPACE does (and I think that's the only one which does?)

'Origins' is one we didn't mention...

Well, my nieces probably learned some new four-letter words today after the Vikings beat the Bears.  (I'm a Bears fan but do like the Vikings if they're not playing da Bears).  Bears couldn't seem to do anything right today.  Unfortunately Unca Sprite let my nieces know about the existence of certain swear words. 

It hasn't been a good weekend football wise.  I'm glad my nieces aren't hear now because they'd be learning some more naughty words.

He was one of the hunters from DS9, but I remember him a lot more as Quinn in Voyager.

Rest in peace.

Tonight's Stinker
The Golem(1920)
https://youtu.be/5cQXzHRQMf4?si=AoyYaTF6CfbevDNR

A Rabbi is doing some astrology, & the stars tell him there's going to be a calamity....
Meanwhile, the emperor is kicking the Jews out of the ghetto for greed, snubbing Christian festivals & black magic, & sends a haughty squire to deliver the message.... The Rabbi asks the squire to make an appeal for him... The squire & the rabbi's daughter fall for each other....
The rabbi secretly sculpts a giant out of clay, then uses black magic to bring it to life.... He uses it for chores at first, while the villagers are freaked out at it....
The squire comes back with good news of an appeal, but the rabbi catches him groping his daughter, & sees her not resisting...
The rabbi goes to a festival at the emperor's place to show off his golem & do some other tricks.... When the castle starts to collapse, the golem saves everyone, & the Jews are pardoned....
Not needing it anymore, the rabbi turns off the golem & tries to destroy it, but things go sideways when the rabbi's assistant finds out the daughter is having an affair with a stranger.....

I had to pause this a lot because the subtitles happened to flash by pretty fast.... Pretty interesting take on the dangers of building an unnatural servant that turns on it's creator (considering)... Wouldn't surprise me if the platform shoes inspired Frankenstein....
