It's probably even harder when the movie you just watched is a remake, where no matter how much you want to take it as its own thing there's a bit of baggage you bring into the movie with you.Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05129602094443434975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-7479889518234149012016-08-23T21:57:28.113-05:002016-08-23T21:57:28.113-05:00I got a chance to see Don't Breathe last week....I got a chance to see Don't Breathe last week.

Anyhow, so it sounds like you’ve warmed slightly to the movie. What do you see differently now? I’ve always been able to detach it from the previous movies and just revel in the over the top nature/spectacle of horror presented. Clearly this is not a movie for everyone.

I don't like the Evil Dead remake nowadays a lot but just enough. The bashing on the show that I did (particularly around Fede Alvarez) was juvenile and early in my time on the site. I would have approached it differently if it were present day me.

The word hate was actually thrown around a lot (not from yourself), however you were very close. Also, remember you all severely bashing Mr. Fede Alvarez. I think the words were why does this remake need to exist…something to the tune of he makes lame internet videos and doesn’t understand what movie he’s making/doesn’t make it his own or deviate from the original far enough to make it worthwhile. I truly am not trying to be a dick. I have these turnarounds as well. This seems like a good opportunity to understand why such a huge turnaround in a horror movie can occur with whom I considered my favorite critic/movie podcaster. Maybe can explain???Cullenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12129227971739897345noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-12541143832212858482016-08-14T16:12:58.415-05:002016-08-14T16:12:58.415-05:00The Evil Dead remake was the most adrenaline pumpe...The Evil Dead remake was the most adrenaline pumped theater experience I've ever had.

I've also seen the first two sequels I think, plus I might conflate bits of the Leprechaun series in with my memories with the Wishmaster movies since the both heavily involve wishes. I'll try to rewatch it soon.<br /><br />Also, is there embarrassing horror anymore? As you guys have mentioned on the podcast just about everything gets reevaluated eventually. At one point I would have said Halloween III, but I don't think it's that uncommon to like it anymore. I kinda like the Howling III I guess despite understanding that it isn't a good movie. I find Return of the Living Dead 2 and 3 both to be watchable. Liking the Evil Dead remake still seems to be a bit controversial I guess.Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05129602094443434975noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4217427319662074458.post-7770776186481882122016-08-13T04:24:46.015-05:002016-08-13T04:24:46.015-05:00I need to reevaluate People Under the Stairs.

I know it's relatively new and not quite the same kind of horror you're looking at here, but I think I like it for the same reasons you like Wishmaster (effects, character stuff, etc). It captures the tone of the games while still doing its own thing, and it's nowhere near as lazy or cynical as a lot of video game movies end up being.
