Good Movies / Unofficial Horror Movie Univer...

Last post by claws - Today at 08:38:02 AM

All unofficial universes by Google.

Probably the best known.

"John Carpenter's Apocalypse Trilogy"

The Thing (1982), Prince of Darkness (1987), and In the Mouth of Madness (1994)

Next one comes from reddit:

"Destructive Power of the Ancient Occult"

The Autopsy of Jane Doe (2016), The Blair Witch Project (1999), and Hereditary (2018)

I always thought they were similar long before the internet decided they are part of an unofficial universe.

"Sci-Fi Hell"

Event Horizon (1997) and Hellraiser (1987)

I wasn't aware of the next one.

"The Ultimate Halloween Anthology"

Trick 'r Treat (2007) and The Town That Dreaded Sundown (2014)

and

"The Industrial Sadism Matrix"

Cube (1997) and Saw (2004)

If anything, they should make fir a fun Halloween watch. Do you know of any unofficial horror movie universes?

I kind of feel like he's an underground / cult movie actor trapped in an A-lister's career? (maybe ended up that way cause he's so dashing and swoonsome?)

That's a good description of Brad Pitt. Johnny Depp once had a similar profile.

he's fun in them), in ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD (not taking himself seriously yet in an Oscar-worthy fashion),

oh thanks for the memory re-jig...I still need to watch this... I'm up and down on Tarantino, but it's the first movie of his that for whatever reason I haven't rushed to watch asap 

have a strong gut feeling I wouldn't like the OCEANS movies so not watched any.

I mean - I'd say half of his performances in this century? He doesn't take himself seriously in TRUE ROMANCE (previous century), in any of the OCEANS movies (which I don't much like, but he's fun in them), in ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD (not taking himself seriously yet in an Oscar-worthy fashion), INGLORIOUS BASTERDS (actually to the film's detriment, somewhat, though still not taking himself seriously).

It might be harder for me to name movies I've seen where he does take himself seriously: KALIFORNIA certainly (I think he's excellent), SE7EN which you mentioned., 12 YEARS A SLAVE (he's good).. sort of FIGHT CLUB, though that movie's a grotesque satire where he plays a nightmarish ubermensch - a "serious" film but sort of a tongue-in-cheek performance.

I don't know, we're probably coming at this from opposite perspectives. I like Brad Pitt! I have skipped some of his movies that appear "serious" that haven't interested me: JOE DEATH or whatever it's called, the racing movie that Rev didn't like....... the one where he walks across Europe. I might not have enjoyed those, so I didn't bother watching them. Oh, I thought of two I didn't like: BENJAMIN BUTTON and BABEL. Really disliked both of those. But I don't think it was because of Pitt - just painful, laborious movies.

The Popeye film is not included.

It's the only one I'm mildly interested in watching.

this is the only one I've seen, and they really did nothing with it, other than hiring a big warehouse and making a random horror film... it feels like a rough 'demo' of a horror film.

I saw there was another one out on dvd already, POPEYE'S REVENGE... and just looking on imdb there are 2 more coming: POPEYE REQUIEM, and POPEYE: RESURRECTION.

(these guys are obviously studying my 'Words that sequels use in their titles...'  thread  )

Is it any "good"? I've seen the trailer. There's a different one based on the Grinch. But both of them are different producers.
