Here's a thread of all the movies I've watched since we stopped leaving the house.
Jumanji: The Next Level
It was fine. Less charming than the first. Kevin Hart was the best thing about it by far.

Spenser Confidential.
Trash. And not trash like I usually like. Trash trash.

Birds of Prey (and the Fantabulous Emancipation of One Harley Quinn)
The best DC movie and it's not even close. I kind of want a Rosie Perez spinoff on that DC app no one has.

Angel Has Fallen
Shout out to the first action hero with diagnosed CTE. These movies are perfectly dumb. 5 stars

This title is about Jon Hamm's dick. There's no way I'm the first person to make this joke but I'm not looking it up.

The Last Black Man in San Francisco
Beautiful. I'm excited to see more from everyone involved. I feel like the next time I watch this will be as a double feature with Sorry To Bother You

21 Bridges
True story. For some reason I've thought Chadwick Boseman was British this whole time. Then I saw him on that LeBron barbershop show and was like "What the fuck?"

Murder On The Orient Express
Man, was this fun. I love big, ensemble whodunits. I was about say "They should make something like this again" and then I realized they made Knives Out and literally this again.

Keep your eye on that Toni Collette. She's going places.

The Player
I only knew this movie as a reference until now. It holds up pretty well. I'm a sucker for a cameo and this movie is about 90 % cameos.

God DAMN this movie was rad. It was like a gore-filled Assualt on Precinct 13 mixed with cocaine. See it immediately.

Leans way more into the comedy than the horror than I expected but that works. Made a great double feature with VFW

The Invisible Man
Tremendous. The opening sequence was so perfectly tense that I was afraid the rest of the movie wouldn't live up to it. I was very wrong.

Singles
It feels a bit dated watching this for the first time in 2020 but the relationship feels really authentic and the redhead friend is very funny.

It's like that movie Skyscraper except Paul Newman doesn't punch a building the way I'm assuming The Rock does. Still, pretty damn great.

The Guard (2011)
How did I miss this movie this whole time? Funny and sad and I'll watch anything with Brendan Gleeson in it. Highly recommended.

Uncorked (2020)
I was nervous when the main character said that riesling was the Drake of wine but it was still pretty good, mostly because of Courtney B. Vance and Niecy Nash.

John Henry (2020)
If this movie had leaned into being ridiculous more it would have ruled. As it stand it's just kid of meh. Great to see that Ken Foree is still the shit.

To Sleep With Anger (1990)
I hadn't even heard of this movie until this year and now I'm mad it's taken me this long to see it. I think that, too often, Danny Glover gets reduced to "I'm getting to old for this shit." but he acts his fucking dick off in this.

Jack Lemmon is such a perfect dick in this movie. This may be my favorite one of his comedies.

Sleuth (1972)
Hadn't seen this in years and it hold up so well. Lawrence Olivier looks like he decided to live on a diet of scenery for the duration of this film.

The Amazing Spider-Man 2 (2014)
Hated this the first time around and now I only kind of don't like it. I wanted more nerd Jamie Foxx. Did not need to b2 2 & a half hours long.

Invasion USA (1985)
If this movie taught me anything it’s that not enough action movies are produced by sentient bricks of cocaine anymore.

Death Wish (2018)
At some point, did Bruce Willis make an active decision to suck at acting or did he just stop giving a fuck. Either way he fucking sucked in this. The movie sucked too, but he extra sucked.

Fred Ward as a 1940's private detective in an alternate Hollywood where magic exists.
I remembered liking this as a kid and, I gotta say, I still do. Some real fun puppet work and practical effects and campy in just the right way. My kind of bullshit

This movie is like most of the shitty straight to video action flicks I grew up watching - it doesn’t make much sense, it’s pretty racist, and Olivier Gruner is in it.

Child’s Play (2019)
More fun than I expected and managed to answer the “Why the fuck should I be afraid of a doll?” question better than most. Worth a watch.

The Thomas Crown Affair (199)
Looking for a movie to help you forget the worlds on fire? Too bad, nothing can do that. Not even Rene Russo's boobs.
It was good though.
Also, defund the police.

Slumdog Millionaire (2008)
I really did not know what I was getting into. I went in thinking this was a fun movie about a kid on game show. So this was very a very... intense experience.

The Hustler (1961)
I had no idea that so much of pool hustling was how long you can play for. Frankly, I find it hard that Jackie Gleason could outlast Paul Newman at anything. Tremendous movie though.

If I could go back in time and see a movie in the theater opening night this would be high on the list. Big bucket of popcorn and a theater full of screaming teenagers. Sounds like a blast.

Just racist enough to make it a bunch of rich white people taking justice into their own hands feel realistic but not racist enougj to making me hate the hero. Hal Holbrook is pretty great.

Part Kickboxer, part Karate Kid made for, what appears to be, approximately $175 dollars. Pretty terrible but in a fun way. Watch with beers and friends and it may work.

Palm Spring (2020)
Really enjoyed this, especially Cristin Milioti. She really grounded stuff while also getting to be over the top and funny. Not the only movie on this list to play with the Ground Hog’s day mechanics.

Brewster’s Millions (1985)
I’ve seen this a hundred times and don’t know if it’s actually good or I just have childhood “we had it on vhs” Stockholm syndrome but I’ll always love it. Also, Walter Hill directed it which makes no sense.

House Party (1990)
Other than a wildly problematic song and dance number about prison rape this holds up pretty well.
Hot take - Play clearly should have been the break out star of the group but the industry pushed the light skinned one w/ the funny hair.

Happy Death Day 2 U (2019)
Perfectly fun Groundhog Day horror comedy. Tweaked it just enough from first movie to feel fresh. Definitely don't need a third one though.

Trespass (1992)
Walter Hill really may be my favorite 80s/90s action director. As outlandish as this, and many of his movies are, they're still grounded in a way that makes the stakes seem real. For sure see it if you haven't.

What We Do In The Shadows (2014)
I made the mistake of watching the show first (it’s awesome BTW) which made this feel kind of lackluster. Still enjoyed it but maybe not as much as I could have.

Walter Hill is my favorite action director. He can take something as absurd as Bill Paxton William Sadler fighting drug dealers while looking for buried treasure and ground it in a way that the stakes feel very real. Highly recommend.

Crystal Lake Memories: The Complete History Of Friday The 13th (2013)
If you’ve got 7 hours to kill and like Friday The 13th than this is for you. Good interviews, cut footage etc. One of the guys that played Jason has a thick New York accent and it really cracked me up.

Saw 1 - 7 & Jigsaw (2004 - 2010, 2017)
These movies are not good. I really tried to like them but they are just a mess. They would have been better if the got rid of all the time line fuckery and “he was in on it the whole time” twistamajigs & (1/2)

just went the Final Destination route and had a new group of people each movie have to play Jigsaw’s games and die in cool ways. Also It was a bummer to see how bad of an actor Luke from Gilmore Girls is. Very disappointing over all.
The Relic (1997)
Hadn’t seen this in years but this is still a fun little creature feature with some good Stan Winston effects.
Directed by the same guy that did The Star Chamber and written by the writer of Mystic Pizza, which is a real weird combo

The Autopsy Of Jane Doe (2016)
I’ve come to a realization that, if Brian Cox is in a movie, I’m probably going to like that movie. This one was particularly good, though. A good start to spooky season, which I think I’m starting early this year.

Mayhem (2018)
Turns out a movie about a spreading virus and corporate greed hits different in September 2020. Between this, Ready Or Not, and Bill & Ted’s I’m turning into a real Samara Weaving fan.

The Dark Half (1993)
I’m kind of surprised I’ve never seen this before as it’s Romero doing Stephen King but it’s kind of just, eh. Timothy Hutton’s villain is fun but it feels pretty repetitive. It’s something I would have watched in TNT that was never on TNT.

Alien Raiders (2008)
Part “The Thing” part “The Mist”. This was a fun, low budget creature feature helped by a better cast than you usually get in something like this. Worth a watch.

The Funhouse (1981)
Carnivals are inherently creepy but even creepier when they’re staffed by an evil rapist version rapidly version of Sloth from the goonies. Good 80’s early slasher fun.

Alien (1979)
Maris had never seen this before and I haven’t seen it in close to a decade. Still great but we were both deeply disturbed by the lack of PPE worn by the crew of the Nostromo

Anna And The Apocalypse (2018)
Stated off fun but definitely lost steam by the half way mark and barely limped its way to 90 minutes.
Also, the police are state/corporate sponsored goons and it's only a matter of time before their violence affects you personally.

Better Watch Out (2016)
I went in knowing nothing about this and I recommend you do the same. Definitely check it out.
Continued violence directed from the state will eventually result in violence directed at the state

Holy shit I forgot just how much this movie rules. Such a fun take on the werewolf story. 20 years old and it holds up perfectly. Highly recommend

The Changeling (1980)
Not particularly scary by today’s standard but a classic spooky mystery with an awesome (as always) George C Scott performance. And it’s on Shudder.
PS Get Shudder. It’s pretty great.

Hell Night (1981)
This is one of those video boxes that’s ingrained in my mind but I’ve never actually seen the movie. I'm a sucker for a 80’s slasher and, while this was a little low on the body count, it was still a lot of fun. Let’s get a Linda Blair renaissance, please.

Enola Holmes (2020)

In Search Of Darkness: A Journey Into Iconic ‘80s Horror (2019)
Perfectly good background movie. Also it reminded me to watch 976-Evil.

The Blob (1988)
Hot Take? I put this on the list of great horror remakes right up there with The Fly & Invasion Of The Body Snatchers. I love how the shots of the blob are super campy & throwback-y while the kills are super modern & graphic. This movie fucking rules.

I probably would have liked this better on mute with some music playing or something. The narrator bummed me out for some reason

Sleuth (2007)
This remake was a real bummer. Took all the fun out of the original and just made it a real bleak downer. Hard pass.

The Resurrected (1991)
Mad scientists, shirtless Chris Sarandon, some real full practical effects and it’s directed By Dan O’Bannon (Return Of The Living Dead). Not sure how I missed this all these years but this is some direct to video awesomeness.

I'm impressed by how charming Albert Brooks is even when I find his character incredibly unlikable. Holly Hunter, as always, is fucking awesome.

Jennifer’s Body (2009)
Man, talk about a surprise. I loved this movie! Has some Heather’s vibes but from a different angle. I think I put off watching this because I’ve been confusing it with “I Know Who Killed Me” the whole time. Definitely check this out.

Mimic (1997)
Maybe I still like this nostalgia reasons but it held up pretty well for me. Going tp try and track a coly of the director's cut. Side note - is Charles S. Dutton still around?

Just Before Dawn (1981)
Pretty standard early slasher with a fun little villain twist at the end. Don’t go out of your way but if you stumble across it it’s not bad.

The Last Exorcism 2 (2013)
I remember liking the first one so I thought why not? I’ll tell you why not. This shit was BORING! 89 minutes felt like 3 hours. This is the last time I watch anything written by DAMIEN CHAZELLE (Yes, that Damien Chazelle)

Cold Prey (2006)
A fairly tame slasher made better by its setting. Took way too long to get going (30+ minutes without a kill?) but was pretty good after that. I could only find a dubbed version which certainly didn't help.

Behind The Mask: The Rise Of Leslie Vernon (2006)
I don't know if it was because it was hard to find for a while but this movie does not get the love it deserves. Yeah, it does the meta thing some people hate but it does it better than most. If you like slashers check it out.

Like a bobo Attack The Block. Still perfectly fun. I love a kid hero’s in horror like Lost Boys or The Gate so this worked for me.

Of Unknown Origin (1983)
What a weird little movie. A man becomes obsessed with a rat living in the walls of his house. This movie is a complete failure if not for Peter Weller acting his dick off. I dug it.

Bats (1999)
If you’re ok with the kind of movie where Leon says “Houston... we have a problem!” when the tracker they put in one of the genetically mutated bats fails then hit your vape pen and jump in because I fucking loved this horseshit

Black Box (2020)
I enjoyed watching black movie that was not about black struggle or pain. A good sci-fi thriller with some fun twists. I’m really enjoying Mamoudou Athie in stuff lately.

He Never Died (2015)
Not strictly a horror movie but enough supernatural elements that I’m sneaking it into spooky season. Henry Rollins plays a good anti-social prick. I saw him do spoken once and I don’t remember any of the words he spoke.

While I generally enjoy the Hatchet movies this felt entirely unnecessary. Shout out to Jonah Ray who was fun and looked like he was having a blast.

Child’s Play (1988)
I disregarded my poll and went with Child’s Play. I hadn’t seen this is at least a decade but I liked it more than I remembered. way more than I remembered. Long live Brad Dourif!

Child’s Play 2 (1990)
Suffers from the slasher problem of wanting a body count but not really having enough characters so they just kill a bunch of people that don’t matter and you don’t care about. Both this and the first film have the best “The killer’s not dead” moments.

Better than part 2. These movies interestingly are not particularly kill based the way most slashers are. I liked it but it’s ultimately fairly tame.

Bride Of Chucky (1998)
This is such a weird change that I ALMOST like it. I don’t like it, because it’s dumb as hell, but I almost do. That end did genuinely make me laugh.

Seed Of Chucky (2004)
Fuck this stupid fucking movie. When horror comedy is bad, and it usually is, it might be my least favorite genre. If I never see another jar full of puppet cum I’ll be a happy man.

Curse of Chuck (2013)
This might be my favorite of the franchise. A few clunky CGI not withstanding this was genuinely creepy in moments. It reminded me of an episode of Friday The 13th: The Series, and I mean that in a good way. (Am I the only person that liked that show?)

These last 2 have been super fun. If this is the direction they are going I’d gladly keep watching. They stepped the gore up which helped make this more serious. Thumbs up.

Deep Rising (1998)
Fuck Rotten Tomatoes.
If you can get past the fact that the CGI monster does NOT hold up then this movie is a fucking blast. Stephen Sommers really kills the big adventure monster stuff (as we’d see a year later with The Mummy). I love this shit.

Await Further Instructions (2018)
I really dug this until the end, which felt really forced. Still worth a watch, as everything up till that point was creepy, tense, and interesting.

Q (1982)
I revisit this movie every few years and I think I like it more each time. It’s got a killer cast, perfectly campy physical effects, and a New York that feels like it couldn’t give a shot that a giant flying serpent is eating people in broad daylight.

This is the second George P. Clematis movie I’ve watched this month and the dude gets me. This is like underwater The Thjng mixed with underwater Alien. I had this on a vhs growing up The other underwater alien knock off Deep Star Six which I might watch soon.

This is my first rewatch and I still really dig it. Some good jump scares and hints of what the writers/directors would do better with The Guest. Definitely glad I watched it a second time.

Funke (2018)
At one point the chef this doc is about says he was fired from teaching at culinary school & told "You can't talk to people like that." & "You're too aggressive". I turned to Maris & said "That is the sign of a certified asshole."
That pasta does look good though.

This maybe didn't make the most sense but it did stay creepy and interesting throughout. It reminded me a bit of The Ruins, enough so that I rewatched it later.

Cronos (1993)
It’s not scary, really, so don’t go in looking for that. That being said this hit all the right buttons for me. Creepy antiques, vampire mythos, Ron Perlman. What more can you ask for?

I’d like to say I cried at the end because it invoked thought of BLM protests but I’ve always cried at the end. Moses rules. It’s a nice bonus that John Boyega also fucking rules.

Busta Rhymes Kung fu fights Michael Meyers. So there’s that.
I’ve come to the conclusion that the only good movies in this franchise are 1 and 3. 4 and the 2018 remake are decent. The rest stink.

Minding Gap (2018)
Maybe everybody's already seen this but GO WATCH THIS NOW. Beautifully sad in the best ways.

Dead Poets Society (1989)
This probably would have hit me different had I seen it as a teenager. Still, it's very good. I suffer from not being able to see Kurtwood Smith as anybody other than Clarence Boddicker, though.

Sid & Nancy (1986)
Gary Oldman and Chloe Webb are great. This movie is gross. Heroin is gross. This movie is successfully gross.

Fresh (1994)
I've been singing the praises of this movie for years even though I hadn’t seen it in over a decade. I was concerned about it not holding up but it definitely does. Written/ directed by the director of Remember The Titans. Just a killer 90s indie thriller.

Mindhunters (2004)
Ever wonder what would happen if Renny Harlin made a Saw knock off and cast LL Cool J and let Johnny Lee Miller do a terrible southern accent? We’ll I’ve got an answer -

Thief (1981)
Like French Connection I can’t believe it took me this long to see this. Instantly shot to the top of my favorite Michael Mann movies. I love low tech heists. No EMPs or hacking just drills and torches and shit.

Dead Bang (1989)
More dead nazis please! Also, Don Johnson plays a great drunk. Super fun little action flick.

8 Million Ways To Die (1986)
Talk about playing a great drunk. Great performance in an otherwise perfectly fine movie.

The Limey (1999)
Shout out to @maggieserota for reminding me about this one because I hadn’t seen since it came out and it’s still great. Terrence Stamp is the perfect British bad ass.

Magnolia (1999)
***SPOILERS***
Either I never knew or managed to totally forget about it but the frogs were a complete surprise.
I’m going to have to invent a time machine and go back in time to talk about this with people. God damn, what a movie.

Sexy Beast (2000)
I never though I’d say this but I'm kind of afraid of Ben Kingsley now.

The Exterminator (1980)
I watched this because 12 year old me was obsessed with the VHS box as a kid. Like most movies of its kind, the cover art is way better then the movie.

Johnny Handsome (1989)
I never would have thought that Walter Hill directing Mickey Rourke in a movie that is basically “What if Rocky Dennis was a thief out for revenge” would be so boring but here we are.

Tenet (2020)
Maybe this movie is kind of a mess or maybe I'm stupid. Either way it was fun to look but I don’t know if I really understood it. I will try again and report back.

Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey
I dug the shit out of this. The songs all worked, it looked great. It's doing almost too much but some how keeps it all together. Just a really fun Christmas musical.
Also... I think it’s time for a Phylicia Rashadaissance.

The Devil All The Time (2020)
One hundred and thirty eight god damn fuck ass minutes long and it stunk for every one of them. Just a complete fucking mess.

Freaky (2020)
Some hacky pronoun jokes aside this was pretty fun with a solid Vince Vaughn performance and way better gore than I was expecting. I'd wait till it's not $20 bucks but worth a watch.

I’m Your Woman (2020)
Good performances in an otherwise forgettable movie. I would have watched this in a plane if planes hadn’t become flying virus incubators this year.

Hunter Hunter (2020)
Watching 7 season of Alone in a row really prepped me for this. It’s a nasty little thriller with good performances all around. Also, can you recognize Devon Sawa? I didn’t!

A Good Woman Is Hard To Find (2019)
Go get a Shudder subscription if you don’t have one. Seriously, it rules and gives you gems like this that I wouldn’t have seen other wise. Highly recommended.

Blood Quantum (2017)
I have been pretty done with zombie movies for a while but I had heard good things about this and they were all right. This fucking ruled! An original take and some killer gore. If you like zombie stuff at all make it a point to see this.

Wonder Woman 1984 (2020)
I was an hour and I had no idea what the point of this movie was. I wish theaters were open so I could purposely not see this in one.

Cats (2019)
What was the scale? Why was there SOME magic? Why did some of them wear clothes and then why did some of the ones that wore clothes then take off their clothes and why was the whole thing so off putting? I don’t know what I just watched and I’m not happy about it.

Soul (2020)
It was beautiful, obviously. I’m curious though. Was this even a little bit for kids? I know if I was a kid I would not have gotten it but I might have just been a dumb kid.

Braven (2018)
I heard someone complimenting this on a podcast recently so I gave it a watch. It was fine. There are better versions of this movie out there (see Becky above)

The Punisher (1989)
It’s funny to see how little Marvel cared about their intellectual property back then. That being said, while this is certainly a bad movie, I had fun. And Lou Gossett Jr always rules.

Uncle Frank (2020)
I really enjoyed this. The end felt a little pandery but the performances were really good through out and it was beautifully shot.
I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again - Margo Martindale fucking rules
