Very unique horror movie. But I would not watch it again. My subconscious was under the effect of the movie until todayā¦ Today I feel recovered. Withdrawal from that movie was tough lol

I think I already said this earlier in the thread, but that is one of the reasons I really liked Blackcoatās Daughter. It actually got under my skin and freaked me out a bit. Thatās a rare treat for a jaded horror fan like me.

Interesting bit of trivia that you may or may not already know: Osgood Perkins, the director of Longlegs and Blackcoatās Daughter, is the son of Anthony Perkins, who played Norman Bates in Hitchcockās Psycho, and the musical scores for both films were composed by his younger brother, Elvis Perkins. Talented family.
(The score for Blackcoatās Daughter is fantastic. Unfortunately the out-of-print vinyl album now changes hands for upwards of $100ā¦)

Haha I can guess that
Ok based on your advice and my appreciation of Longlegs, Iāve seen Blackcoatās daughter (or February ? Itās supposed to be the original title on the imdb, anway) tonight. I loved it. Such a great movie. You can clearly see a connection between the two movies. Itās gorgeous, bold, cold, dark, surprising, probably unforgettable. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!

Iām Gonna Have To Watch This One ! Seems To Be A Lot Of Peopleās Fav ! Where Could I Find It At !? Like , Netflix , Prime , A Movie Website ?
I think that depends a lot on where you are located. I first saw it on Amazon Prime.
Thereās a series on Netflix called Terror Tuesday: Extreme. Based on real life radio dial in stories in Thailand. Iāve only watched one of them so far but itās pretty well made. Not bad at all.

Longlegs. Fabulous. New, fresh, accomplished, paced. Loved it.
The Deliverance.
The family situation in this film was so horrifyingly disconcerting that this worked for me as a frightening piece of film. It wasnāt really honestly that good, so it shouldnāt have been so creepy. But it really was horrible. Left me feeling so freaked out. Good acting, deep themes.

I watched this last night. I thought the first half, where it was setting things up with the portrayal of the family and their situation was done really wellāit felt very convincing and compelling, but then the second half, when it became a full-blown horror movie, was pretty dreadful.
So lazily derivative of every possession film since The Exorcist. You could do a checklist of all the tropes youāve seen 100 times before. In fact, some of dialogue and scenes actually seemed to be lifted straight from The Exorcist.
Just my personal opinion of course 
, but I was left feeling that it was a shame that the director/writers didnāt have as much interest in making an original and creative horror movie as they did in skillfully depicting interpersonal and social issues.

One of my local theaters is currently showing remastered versions of the first three Children of the Corn movies. Went to see the first one a few days ago. Itās great to be able to see a movie like that in the theater. Good goofy fun!

Agreed absolutely. The first half was more terrifying before the horror started!!

Great flick!
During the past few months Iāve re-watched Night of the Living Dead (1968), Dawn of the Dead (1978), and Day of the Dead (1985), and then I watched Land of the Dead (2005) and Diary of the Dead (2007) for the first time.
They are all good, but the first three are bona fide classics. I think Day of the Dead was the one that surprised me the most with how good it was after not having seen it for along time. (I think the last time I saw it was at a horror all-nighter in the late 80s!)
I have to say, watching the more recent entries in the series for the first time now, I kind of felt that they had been made to seem somewhat run-of-the-mill by The Walking Dead and the zombie movie overkill that came in its wakeāeven though they predate that by a few years. Still good films though.

Thatās awesome. I think you just set up my watch list my friend. Iāll have to go down this path. I feel you on the walking dead aspect.
And the OGād are for sure Bona Fide Classics!
This one was the first one I saw on tv as a child. Freaked me out dude lol. Was born in 84, so yeah. Real 90ās kid here.
