I had really liked the first one and had no issues with the second and third ones. I tapped out after the fourth movie as I don’t remember liking it at all. Probably will skip this one as well. Agree about Chris Rock. He should stick to getting the easy paydays from being Adam Sandler’s buddy and standup if he even does that anymore.
You'll be glad you did.

Anybody have Shudder? I tried the free month about 2 years ago and the concept was great, just not enough content. I'm hoping they've improved in that department.

Definitely want to see season 2 of Creepshow.
I was in the same boat ..had it a couple of years ago for about a year.
The content was just not there. (and kept forgetting to cancel)

I may try again for a month and see how fresh the content is.

I'll forget to cancel again I'm sure.

I was on a pretty big Shudder kick during the Pandemic lol, especially with how weak 2020 was for horror. @Shanemansj13 can attest to that.

I was like you guys some years ago... Gave up on it. But their content has drastically improved since 2018. 2019 they really started coming out with some great stuff.

What Keeps You Alive (2018)
Even though this movie was sort of riddled with questionable actions, I felt like Hannah Emily Anderson's performance made this movie well worth the watch. The movie dragged itself through 5-too many ending scenes and just didn't know when to quit. Overall somewhat amateur film, but still worth the 1 time watch.
I watched What Keeps You Alive yesterday.
It certainly had some flaws but it also had a few moments that were absolutely brutal. Not in the sense of brutal kills persay, but brutal emotional actions.

I went in knowing nothing about it and had a serious WTF?!? moment that I had to rewind and see again. It blew my mind.

The good:
*Solid writing
*Good cinematography
*The two leads are generally good actors, particularly the main protagonist.
*One of the best uses of score I've heard/seen in some time.
*Good ending!

The bad:
*It drags in the middle. They could have cut some minutes but you have to hit that run time.
*A couple of stupid moments here and there. They could have improved on that.

Do not watch the trailer!!! It ruins the impact of the movie. If I had seen it before the movie it would have lessened the viewing experience. (Which is why I didn't post it here).

6 to 6.5 outta 10 range for me.

I like the trailer, but worry they may have given too much.

The Halloween music being done with stringed instruments is interesting. I don't dislike it, but the piano is my favorite instrument lol.

Just watched The Wind on Netflix. Not bad, pretty slow and not sure the payoff is worth it but I liked the setting, I thought it had some creepy scenes and definitely found it to be fairly original. Bigger budget they probably knock it out of the park.

I don't know what's currently on there now but the one thing I would make sure to watch if I ever subscribed to it would be The Last Drive In with Joe Bob Briggs.

New season of Black Summer on Netflix . Worthwhile zombie watch, pretty mindless, definitely lower budget but do a decent job with it.
Just finished S2. The Tarantino act got a little old, but wasn't a bad watch. They definitely dragged that season out 2-3 episodes longer than it should have been based on the thin plot material. I'm sure the pandemic had a lot to do with that.

Totally agree about going out of chronological order. Doesn't really enhance the story or make it more interesting. If anything it just makes things unnecessarily confusing.

But, it's a mindless watch,nothing more.
