have you seen John Carpenter's The Thing?
yes! i love horror movies, especially ones that are sci-fi related. you would like Event Horizon if you liked The Thing
I've heard a lot about Event Horizon; I know with The Thing, my heart was pounding for the last half of the movie. Is Event Horizon going to make me feel like that too?
Probably, it has some very scary moments. I think Event Horizon might be in my top 5 sci-fi horror movies.
I was bummed out to see the latest Halloween movie. maybe i'm spoiled, but the classic 1978 Halloween is the best.
I tend to stay away from more modern horror movies, although maybe I shouldn't.
I will say, i hate jump scares in horror movies.
Me too! It feels like such a cheap scare, and that's all that most modern horror movies seem to be doing these days. that, and the gore...
Yes, I avoided all of the Saw movies from the 2000s and 2010s; i'm not at all into gore in my horror films, particularly if it is not well done. it makes me feel gross.
yes, i don't like the queasy feeling that i get when i watch a horror movie that has a lot of gore.
if i had to watch a more modern horror movie though, what would you recommend?
Oh, i'd have to think. Maybe Stephen King's It, Chapter 2?
I think i'd like to check that out, as my friend Jeff recommended that to me recently. I'm not sure what it's about though.
It is kind of hard to explain, but i will try to find some reviews for you that do not include any spoilers.
thank you. i'm somewhat familiar with stephen king's writings, so I know it has to be somewhat scary.
Oh yes, it's definitely a scary movie to be excited out!
