Caught The Lighthouse at TIFF last night, absolutely incredible, not going to be for everyone but much more to my taste than The Witch was.
Also caught The Color Out of Space, it was okay.

Anyone see the Turkish horror movie Baskin? It is some dark stuff, and there's some incongruities plot-wise but it's a gorgeous, atmospheric movie and it's a movie that'll definitely stick with you for a bit. On Hulu.

Monos may lack character depth, but it excels in creating visceral moments along with some stunning cinematography. The fact that the film was made in the Colombian rainforest in sometimes brutal weather conditions reminded me of the films that Herzog filmed in the rainforest.

Did that Jacob's Ladder remake get a theatrical release? It looks like it's legit one of the worst movies made in 2019.

It was made a couple years ago, sat on the shelf then unceremoniously dumped on VOD

jacob's ladder is a favorite of mine, but can't for the life of me understand the need for a remake. but i guess that's the sentiment towards every remake.

Saw It Chapter 2 over the weekend and wow, so disappointing. It had no business being 3 hours long and at a certain point just meandered about before rushing towards the end. The CGI in the 2017 It was hit or miss but it was mostly if not all miss in this one. Performances were solid though and ate a pizza during so can't complain too much haha

So somebody fainted during Sound of Metal at TIFF? It looks great and maybe a bit too close to home for me, but I never did get to see Metalhead.

From what I read, they ran out of money and never finished production for Derek Cianfrance's Metalhead. Sound of Metal was directed by Darius Marder, who was the co-writer for The Place Beyond The Pines, my guess is this is what Metalhead eventually became. The guy who fainted said it wasn't sure if the movie was the cause of him fainting, but I read there are scenes that are really loud.

I saw this in theaters back when it came out. The first two acts are amazing, particularly the second act when they are exploring the abandoned building with flashlights and it's completely dark outside of the beams of light, absolutely terrifying and brilliantly filmed. But I fucking haaaaaated the third act, like to the point where it really ruined the movie for me.

You're right, I think I was confusing it with another indie about a punk drummer that I came across on Kanopy.

You guys are gonna kick me out of this thread but I have to say it:
2001: A Space Odyssey honks. It's a bad movie.
I tried watching it when I was like 13-14, literally fell asleep an hour in. So I go to watch it for the first time since last night thinking, "eh I was a dumb teenager, of course I wouldn't have appreciated it" and I'd be lying if I said the result was much different this time around. I like slow burn movies, I like movies that are barely burning at all, I like methodical, deliberate, pay-attention-to-every-frame movies and I literally just popped the Blu-ray out halfway through. Couldn't do it.
NOW. I will also say, it's aesthetically perfect. Every frame, every composition, every choice of color is incredible. I said aloud to my girlfriend "pretty unreal they were able to make this movie in the early 80s" ….it was made in 1968. Bonkers.
So, Kubrick deserves every piece of praise for what an achievement this thing was on a cinematography level but otherwise it's an absolute slog.
