time for a post with a slightly more relevant pic... it's psycho on VHS which was one of the movies i watched this weekend. did i mention i've been watching all these movies on a crappy old crt i got off the side of the road? but all the dvds are widescreen... but the vhs tape is 4:3. anyway, on to the actual movies!
friday night was hellraiser! i kinda had high hopes (yay p!atd) for this movie. it sounded cool. but it didn't really deliver. style over substance. except the effects weren't even that good. like the dude's face in pieces on the floor what was that LOL and the hooks going through "skin" like idk. it wasn't doing it for me. and like, the engineer? yeah if you saw something like that in real life, it'd be fucked but it's just a movie so it's just stupid looking. and again it's such a STRAIGHT PEOPLE movie. and so 80s. i ordered the dvd of the second one cuz i want to see if the effects get any better...
saturday's movie was psycho, the 1998 version. i kinda wonder if it would have been better to watch the original? would it be creepy in black and white? i might try watching that one at some point. i don't have much to say about this movie. the song is better than the movie! maybe i knew too much about the movie? the motel should have been creepier looking. the average motel is creepier looking i think.
then on sunday i watched another movie, but not even an ice nine kills movie! i wanted to see a horror movie in a theatre, so i went and watched the strangers. i don't know if it's just because it was in a theatre, or if it was because it's not an 80s movie, or what, but aaah, finally some tension LOL loud parts are really loud in a theatre though... and like yeah it was kinda stupid but i thought it was better than some of the other stuff i've been watching. like i was actually wondering if they were going to survive or not...
