Check them out. Just finished watching both of them... Very good movies... Foreign horror movies are mostly incredible, it is a shame that American horror movies don't equate to them...

It was at least a year since I’d last seem a movie before that. Took my son to see Meg 2 last summer and caught Evil Dead Rise as a matinee. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I went to see it today as I just got back from a European vacation and am holding off getting back to work as I'm jet lagged and brain is fried. Ironically enough it tied in nicely w our trip. Takes place in Germany, had an actor from Downton Abbey which is how we learned about Viking Cruises, and even something we learned while on trip tied in with the plot line.

TheNewGirl 1,154 Posted August 16 Alien: Romulous The usual - chest busters, artificial persons, face huggers, etc. Good storyline line. Not too much gore, IMO. MDC, if your son has seen the others he might do okay with this one, it's pretty much par for the course in terms of the Alien franchise. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I thought Alien 3 was OK but didn't care for Resurrection and Prometheus. I never saw Covenant and had low expectations for this new one, giving up long ago on them continuing to dip into the well, kind of like Star Trek dipping into the Borg well.

Thanks. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circle_(2015_film) In the film, fifty people wake up in a darkened room, only to find that one of them is killed every two minutes or when they attempt to leave. When they realize that they can control which person is selected to die, blocs emerge based on personal values. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DonS 3,170 Posted August 30 Caught a couple of "horror" movies while on a biz trip. Had seen previews for them and wanted to see them before any spoilers came out. "Strange Darling" - go in as blind as possible. I liked it though it does start kinda slow. "Blink Twice" - decent enough but they basically spoiled their own damn movie by including a TRIGGER WARNING at the start. So basically they gave a heads up about something that would happen. Story was still interesting but entire time I was just waiting for how the triggering content would come into play. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I really liked it and glad to read that you did also. For whatever reason, I’m really protective of my kids watching movies with a lot of profanity. Even though I know Jr hears it at school and I use profanity myself, I’m still like that. Self-analysis: I dislike my own use of profanity and hope to prevent it in him. I thought the feel of Romulus really aligned with the first two movies. Turns out the name Romulus is kinda stupid, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
