I love Scary Movie 3 where they spoof Signs lol.
Yeah and then you can split zombie movies further into like, virus vs classic undead
Oh that reminds me! During the ~53 hours of flying I did over Christmas, I saw The Shallows with Blake Lively. It was really good.
I think I cringed when I saw the previews for it. I just love sharks too much.

So fun story I once convinced my RA staff to watch ReAnimator with the building's residents for a Halloween movie night as a joke so now none of them will let me recommend horror movies to them. I would argue it did its job though because the part where the headless guy sticks his severed head in between that girl's legs before he rapes her scarred all of them probably permanently. I now defend ReAnimator as a modern classic to all of them lol.Same. I listened to the audiobook for American Psycho recently as well. So funny, so disturbing.
I watched ReAnimator a couple months ago, I see it pop up on so many "best horror movies" lists and I'm just like...how are they defining "best" here? Because it should not be on the same list as like, Poltergeist and The Shining
Depends on how much killing actually happens. Things like You're Next and The Strangers are different, in my mind, from When A Stranger Calls and Hush.
Yeah the psychology there is really really bad. But I watched McAvoy in Filth this summer and could not get over how great that dude is so my love of him might drag me to that movie despite literally every other thing wrong with it lol.
Yup!
Ew, I didn't realize it's a Shyamalan movie. I don't want to see it because like WZ said, their portrayal of dissociative identity disorder looks super inaccurate.
Heh, salty about sharks. Pun intended?
Always split into fast vs slow zombies.
You know. It actually wasn't as bad as a shark one is. For a horror/ thriller, they do a good job explaining that it isn't the shark's fault
Every shark movie just wants to be Jaws again and they're all bad at it because of it.
Is there even consensus regarding whether DID truly exists at all? From my understanding it's an extremely controversial diagnosis in the first place and nobody can agree upon diagnostic criteria (and what's in the DSM is vague? Idk).
Yeah I've seen it. Honestly can't remember what I thought about it though, pretty sure I saw it several years ago, I'm guessing it wasn't a favorite or anything since I don't quite remember.
Always
Fast zombies are a disgrace to zombie kindAlways split into fast vs slow zombies.
I liked 28 Days Later but could not get over how dumb all of the characters are. In the beginning when Cillian Murphy is naked and wandering around London screaming hello I wish they had just killed him there. A bowl of uncooked pasta could think circles around that dude.
Kidding, I don't care that much, but I think anyway slow ones tend to be classic undead and fast ones tend to be virus. Might not hold true for all cases.
What I usually hear is that if it is a thing, it's extremely rare, and doesn't work the way people think it does. Not sure how it actually does work though.
Beauty & the Beast
Speaking of actors I love, have you ever seen Bronson? Not sure if it's still on Netflix but Tom Hardy blows that role away and as a bonus it's about a recurrent criminal who is incarcerated in Broadmoor and loves to get into fistfights (among other things).
I haven't seen it but I adore Tom Hardy
Don't ask me haha
YES.
Are we watching that one tomorrow?
i think so
What WZ said sounds correct, but it's been 6 years now since I took abnormal psych so I don't really remember and it's possible opinions have changed. But we definitely learned about it in that class, I think I even wrote a paper over it. I remember my professor talked about a former patient with DID, but IIRC he'd only met the one during decades of practicing.
I'm the exact same way.

I LOVE HERCULESSSSSSS!!!!!!!I was never really into the classic animated Disney movies.
I mean, I've seen them, I was just never in love with them the way a lot of people seem to be. I'm a fan of Hercules. And I guess I've seen The Black Cauldron about 4000 times but that's because it scared me so much I couldn't look away and my mom misinterpreted that as loving the movie and she would play it for me on repeat.
I can only pick one??? Can I pick a top 5 instead? In no particular order: The Lion King, The Emperor's New Groove, Beauty and the Beast, Tangled, and Mulan. If we're considering just Disney animated movies and not live action stuff. Also not considering Pixar.
Yeah actually are we considering Disney classics only or are we including recent 3D animated Disney and "technically Disney but no one remembers it's a Disney movie"?
2nd place is mostly occupied by Hercules, Mulan, Oliver & Company and Lion King I think. So maybe not quite a 10 way tie. But I'm unsure and there are probably more that should be on that list.I was never really into the classic animated Disney movies.

I mean, I like The Black Cauldron now but I think a movie where the villain is basically Satan and his goal is to raise a skeleton army may be a bit frightening for a four year old lol
Well officer, we've had a doozy of a day. There we were minding our own business, just doing chores around the house, when kids started killing themselves all over my property.
I have something until like 8 pm CST.
It's the beauty of time zones, yo. There's enough of us that If a couple est/ CST people pass out early, the convo still goes because there are wrong Coast people who still talk until their 1 or 2 am, and when est/CST people wake up early, they comment on what they missed and the people in est and CST are awake to respond.
