Idk if I ever mentioned The Platform before 
but itās one I never forgot about. I had no idea there even was a 2nd one, but Iām glad there is, Iām watching it right now. A prequel to the first. Same gruesome brutality, if not more, and much more character development. Highly recommend

MAN absolutely!
I prefer the 1990 remake to the original. Horror blasphemy, but I donāt care.
In my top 10 as well, easy.

Some of my personal favorites that Iāll be getting to this October ā
Candyman (1992)
Night of the Living Dead (1990)
It Follows
The Shining
Dawn of the Dead (1978) and probably (2004)
Day of the Dead (1985)
House of 1,000 Corpses // Devilās Rejects
Halloween, 2, 3, 4, 5.
Trick r Treat
And whatever is on Svengoolie every saturday night.
Edit to add the opening titles of Halloween 4.
It captures the essence of the season perfectly, in my opinion.

@Tragicfarinelli Now that Iāve finished it, I can say that I liked how it ended 
Hope you enjoy 
@TMAC Ahā¦Candyman. That movie messed me tf up when I was a kid. I was scared to watch it again for a looong time. I also love the 2004 Dawn of the Dead. Might have to dust off my DVD

Did you know the actors in this film were paid only $1000 for their work?

I thought this topic might have been revived for āThe Substanceā
What a great great horror.

Well, my understanding is that they were film students at the time, so maybe not so surprising, but what a great effective film it is.
Iāve been diving into quite a few found-footage films recently, because, when they work, I find they can be the some of the most genuinely frightening films. Iāve found very few to compare with Blair Witch Project or the first couple of Paranormal Activity films though. Hell House LLC was pretty good (although Iāve heard the sequels are dire), and Skinamarink got to me! (Although many people say itās not really even a film! 
)
I also have The Outwaters in my blu ray pileālooking forward to that.

What a great photo. I only ever saw the very first Candyman film and I liked it well enough, but never felt the urge to watch any of the sequels.
Personal stuffā¦
I have not been doing great on the sobriety front recentlyāthatās one reason I havenāt really been posting here much. A bit ashamed of myself, I guess. I havenāt quite regressed to my worst boozing patternsānot nearly, but I have been drinking too much for sure.
I just started taking a Kudzu supplement after reading that it is meant to help with alcohol cravings and reduce the desire to drink to excess. I didnāt expect muchāif anythingāand it has only been less than a week since I started taking it, but I have to say, it actually seems surprisingly effective.
On another positive note I managed to patch things up with my wife after a very prolonged bad patch earlier in the year (which I moaned about here), so that is good. Like I mentioned earlier in the thread, it actually looked like it was over for us for moment. Glad it wasnāt.

I watched two films in the theater this week The Reflecting Skinā a very strange, almost David Lynch-esque rural, psychological horror film from 1990, which was weird and unsettling, but pretty good. (Damn, that was a lot of adjectives in one sentence!)
And Imaginaryāthe new (here) Blumhouse movie, which I knew was going to be crapāand it was, but I still thoroughly enjoyed it! I went in hoping for the same tranquilizing ācozy atmosphereā that I got from Night Swim and I wasnāt disappointed. It almost put me into a trance.
Itās weird, but I think bad Blumhouse movies have become my new comfort foodāmy āblankie.ā 
In a way Iām glad they just seem to keep making 'em!

Just saw it in Paris, and aw, it hurts !
There are literally plenty of (obvious) references, it may irritate some, but overall, I loved it. Cool roller coaster, with a lot of over the top moments, grand guignol and fun. Itās also really sexy, violent, and visceral. Et oui cāest franƧais
