I rewatch ‘Single White Female’, ‘Hand That Rocks the Cradle’, ‘Misery’ and other 90’s thrillers all the time. 😎
Hell yeah!!!!!
I grew up with Return To Oz. Watching that film when I was 5 years old was gleefully traumatic. Absolutely love it!
Saw it on DVD from my library 5 years ago 😊
Same, this movie scared the living daylights out of me as a kid. A classic!
Introduced my 4yo granddaughter to return to oz, she loves it
when your wifely hates you
lol
OMG!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank you so much for reviewing Bramayugam (The age of madness) a Malayalam film (Malayalam is a language spoken in the Indian state of Kerala) I'm super happy that you enjoyed it. love from India❤
I haven’t watched too many new horror movies but here are some of the new things that I’ve watched this month
-Harold and Maude
-Red Rocket
-Existenz
-Little Women(1994)
-Reality Bites
-How to Make and American Quilt
-Landscape in the Mist
-The Bad Sleep Well
-Raising Arizona
-Waltz with Bashir
-Lone Star
-Thriller: A Cruel Picture(1973)
-Cherry Falls
-A Touch of Zen
-Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure
-The Zone of Interest
Harold and Maude is my all time fave
Belzebuth on Shudder from 2019 is fantastic horror. Some subtitles some English but so worth it.
Bill & Ted 🎸🎸 Excellent!
❤ Bill & Ted. Always makes me😂. Keanu Reeves is so cute in that movie.
🙋🏿♀️ from Amsterdam.
23:38 I just watched 'Butterfly Kisses' on your recommendation and I quite liked it. I'm a massive found footage fan like yourself, so I'm definitely the target audience. I liked the 'film-within-a-film' meta angle and I think there was some actual thought and intelligence that went into this. I liked the lure a lot and found a few moments to be pretty effective (especially a couple of scenes near the end). I could have done without the cheap jump scares (only 2 of them, thankfully) and the thing that's really difficult to do with this sort of thing is make it all seem completely 'natural' i.e some of the performances and it doesn't always QUITE do that. But definitely worth a watch, so cheers as always 🙂
Cant wait to see Zone of Interest. One of the first really transformative movies that I ever saw was The Garden of the Finzi-Continis. It exposed me to the idea that the evil of the Holocaust was so "unbelievable" that there were actually people who thought it could not possibly be happening. My heart really broke for the family who couldn't seem to see it coming.
It was a really powerful film, thank you for the other recomendation
The wheelies from Return to Oz still haunt me 😂 I love that film! 🎃
Omg those wheelers are such freaks haha
The Village = my all time favorite movie going on 16 years now. The cast, story, and soundtrack are A+++
Same
Thanks for the February recap, Emma. I am definitely intrigued about "Butterly Kisses", so that's on my watchlist now. I remember "Return To Oz" got a lot of bad press when it was released in 1985. I didn't see it until years later, but I was surprised how much I liked it. I was learning more about the Oz books at the time, so the darker elements were not so surprising to me. I will also admit that I love "The Village". I saw it when it came out and I thought it was one of the best love stories I had seen in years (don't know what that says about me). The first twist really caught me off guard, but then everything just falls into place.
Here are a couple of highlights from my February viewings:
DARIO ARGENTO: PANICO (2023) - score 8/10, great documentary on the Italian master.
THE ZONE OF INTEREST (2023) - score 5/10, not a fun film to watch, though it had a Wes Anderson feel visually.
LISA FRANKENSTEIN (2024) - score 7/10, good dark comedy, I enjoyed it more than I expected.
BOB MARLEY: ONE LOVE (2024) - score 6/10, found it informative about his life, since I only knew about his music.
SKINAMARINK (2022) - score 4/10, I knew it would be experimental, but I still felt let down by the old trick of "the plot is none of your business".
Emma I went and watched butterfly kisses right after you recommended it because the description piqued my interest. It was fantastic! Thanks for the rec!
we also have a norwegian the traitors here in Norway :D i looove it, season 4 will start around april.
Hell yeah!
Never heard of Butterfly Kisses but have added it to my watchlist following your description. Thank you as always for your insight!
Em; you are one of the only YT creators that I have followed year in, year out since I first stumbled across you many moons ago (I think you'd only been going less than a year if memory serves?) and I just want to say in regards to your closing message, that you have COMPLETELY earned the position you have! You have consistently been a shining (and highly relatable/charismatic) light on the genre films that we all love so much and I am sure I speak for many of my fellow subs when I say that I couldn't be more happier for your success and long may it continue! So many countless good/great recommendations that I might not have heard of or chosen to see ('Cat Sick Blues' is one of my fave examples because I clearly must be a sick 'lil monkey too for liking it!) 😆
I will rock with you for as long as you continue to do this, you can be sure of that 😎🤘
Thank you so much that’s so kind of you!!!! 🥹🥹🥹
@@spookyastronauts You are more than welcome, my lovely! ☺
And I'm still in agreement at 'The Exorcist: Believer' - The hate train is insane for that! 🤪
@@spookyastronauts I just remembered the first (or definitely one of the first) videos I ever came across of yours; it was one of those 'What I watched this month' ones and you were talking about one of the latter 'Hellraiser' sequels and you said the immortal words "....it was so fucking awful!" and I just fell about laughing! 😄 I hadn't heard you swear at that point and that just made me like you even more *heh heh! 😈
So excited to see another faithful! Totally obsessed with the traitors. Australia and NZ are great seasons and Canada wrapped up late last year. Such a bingeable series and so cool to see so many peeps here lovin it
My sister _just_ got me into Traitors, i'm two episodes in of the UK season! :)
The second season of the UK traitors is TOP NOTCH TV!! I have not been that tense during a finale ever in my life. Can’t wait for you to see it!
Just watched Next Exit, was a bit slow, but I'm looking forward to Drive Away Dolls for some fun. Bramayugam peaks my interest because like you, I love me some folklore! Butterfly Kisses is my next rewatch after years! Thanks for what you do and for keeping my movie card full.
I try!! Thank you for the support!
Great list, as always. Love The Bone Woman and was planning to rewatch, too!
I think of you and Gromit when I hug my pup! Her name is Emma and she’s 12, almost 13 in July. I hope you are doing well after that family event. ❤
Return To Oz is one of my favorites! Used to watch it all the time in the late 80’s and 90’s.
I'm just about to finish Succession, only have two episodes left! Kieran Culkin and Sarah Snook had me bawling early in season four, they're both so good💜
"Next Exit" definitely sounds like my bag
Hey! Which day did you get to see the eras tour and which surprise songs did you get?
Lots of good stuff on this list. I've been meaning to watch Lover, Stalker, Killer since it came out. Will definitely bump that up on my list.
This episode was so soothing, thank you, Emma.
More boring. What happened to her? Barbie.
thanks North. I’m not sure who this dude is but your comment was so nice after his tearing me down
Don’t let the bastards get ya down mate, you’re the best. I love every video you make 🫶🏼
I love The Village! one of my favs. re Zone of Interest, there is a behind the scenes thing on youtube that is quite good, showed how they set up the cameras to film, like there were no camera people in their faces, the cameras were hidden and the cast were acting to an almost empty room, It was very interesting!
I was not disappointed by 'The zone of interest', but it definitely was not as disturbing as expected.
Fair, that's because I knew nothing about the movie except a German family living right next to a concentration camp, but still. The never ending soundscape of screaming and crying people and gunshots in the distance is haunting, though. The implications and the sheer comfort and forced ignorance of the characters in the foreground is what makes the movie stand out.
If you haven't seen it, I'd like to recommend "The Eternal Daughter" starring Tilda Swinton. It's a very unusual ghost story with a wonderfully atmospheric setting. The ending completely caught me off guard. Thanks again, Emma, for your all your recaps!
Hey! I watched it when it came out last year :)
love the Traitors, only just watched the UK season recently too. Will have to check out the other countries spin offs soon!
The Zone of Interest was super good ! 👌
Definitely a love for if you love WW2, Forgien Films with a slow buring feeling to it
You have to watch Traitors Australia season 2! It's the most frustrating season, but a satisfying conclusion. I loved the cast as well.
Oooooooo now you have me interested
Next exit is currently on hulu and ive added it to my list.
Wow you saw a lot of good ones. I wrote a lot of them to hunt down. Thanks for sharing and cool video Emma!👉🙂👈
I recently got into The Traitors too, UK S2 was INCREDIBLE and the US version is great if you like any American reality TV shows like Big Brother or Survivor.
I need to track down season 2 , I realised after it’s not on the same platform I watched the other in Australia.
I love the fact that you have just watched return to Oz, I saw it at the cinema when I was really young. Oddly back then we had mid film interludes with an ice cream lady who would come down the isle for ten mins before the film kicked back in 😂 those wheelers 😳🙈😂
Return to Oz is one of those movies that freaked me out as a kid and now I love but still freaks me
out. After Nightmare Before Christmas came out I wondered if Jack Skellington was based on Jack the pumpkin. Tim Burton confirmed he was. Just some fun trivia ❤
I just saw "Butterfly Kisses" and it certainly was a step above the typical found footage fare. The meta-angle was a new twist, though I wonder if the film was maybe too layered. Either way, I enjoyed it and I'd give it a score of 7/10.
Yessss season 2 of Traitors come throuuuuugh
Watching the finale now!!!!
I also only recently watched Storm Warning, after I found out the script was written in the 80s by the dude that wrote Road Games and Razorback (And the kids tv show Ship to Shore!)
Space Man out Friday can't wait
I love return to Oz. My cousin and l used to play a game we made up call Dorothy escapes the wheelers😅 the history of the dark disney movies is really interesting, watcher in the woods in one of my favourites
Great video. I love my job to, bug bounty hunter, such a fun job as well, yours is better im sure. I game on twitch to, ill have to come watch and hang out, didnt even realize it. Happy 10 yrs as well. Had no idea its been that long. Im happy for your success. Keep up the winderful work. 😊
I watched a hidden gem from Brazil called Medusa which was very eerie in regards to the atmosphere of certain scenes. Also highly recommend the japanese film Retribution.
I actually did some post production work on Midnight Meat Train! Wondering if you've ever seen Georgia with Jennifer Jason Lee? Really great performances.
Introduced my 4yo granddaughter to return to oz, she loves it
I LOVE David Farrier, I even pay for his Substack Webworm. I’ve been looking forward to watching Mister Organ since before it came out. A really great voice for investigative journalism when the industry continues to shrink day by day.
YAY! My favorite video of every month! 🤩
Thanks! It’s a little long this month
I can't stop thinking about The Zone of Interest
I saw Next Exit at a film festival last year or the year before. I really liked it. I also really enjoyed Butterfly Kisses! It's really creepy.
Last exit was so surpisingly good i hadnt heard of it till i watched it i watched it about a month or 2 ago and i only did cos of the cast I'm a huge iZombie and Dr Who fan so to have Liv Ravi and Amy all in one film i had too
I want to ask if you'll ever play Until Dawn or The Quarry on ur livestream, btw love your videos, it makes my day sm better
I have played until dawn already! Didn’t like it because of the story aspect but I might try quarry sometime now I’ve gotten more used to gaming
Love to know what you thought of Speak No Evil! One of the best films I've seen in years! Xx
I did a review on it, there’s a whole video about it on my channel
The only movie I've seen in the theatre that had an intermission was Gandhi (1982). Yes, I am that old.
That’s not that old!
Traitors sounds like a show I would love!!
What time of day do you guys usually watch movies on Patreon? Wondering if i'd be able to catch those in Europe. 🤔
We do two movie nights a month 9am and 9pm AWST always on Sundays. That way we hit both time zones
I quit succession after the first three episode but you may have just convinced me to give it another go 🤔
I know it’s alotttt but after the first season it’s amazing
Im an elder Millennial who loves horror and disturbing films probably a bit too much.
The Wheelers still scare the shit out of me. And if i ever see a Wheeler cosplayer in the flesh, i will leave. 🤣
Yeah, I tried to watch The Lobster in on flight once. Needless to say I just ended up watching half of it lol
Hshaha
Did you get to see Stopmotion? Not sure if it released out where you are.
The Seasoning House is brutal!
It’s not coming out here :(
I was looking forward to your opinion on it. Hopefully, it will show up somewhere near you unexpectedly so you can check it out. @@spookyastronauts
I think it’s coming to shudder in April
concept, concept, concept x1000
The Traitors Australia season 1 is GREAT!!!!! So much better than American season 1
I finally watched Huesera last night.
I can't stop thinking about the brujeria scene near the end. Holy f*ck!! That's exactly what i want in a witchcraft movie
I really liked the seasoning house and thought it was a hidden gem, extremely disturbing. However very sad given that that actually happened but well made for sure. I was wondering if you had seen that one. Also yes, beware the wheelers:)
I love FF movies, but I had never heard of "Butterfly Kisses" until this month. You were the third "horror expert" to mention it. Strange coincidence. Good movie, silly title.
19:31 which avatar.
Giving butterfly kisses a shot, it’s on CZcams!
Hello. Just asking whether you have heard of Sister Death? It is a prequel to Veronica that got released on Netflix last year
Still haven’t gotten around to that one but I’ve heard good things
3:14 black and white forget it
Oh my god...😯.. You watched ""Bhramayugam"...thanks for your opinion on that movie..anyway, if you like malayalam horror movies.. Just try this movie also, titled "Manichitrathazhu(1993)...and expecting a review on that movie from you..
Love from Kerala, India❤️
Haha playing little nightmares while watching this video! I love it sm im obsessed
I really enjoyed Butterfly Kissed. and The Village.. i love it when it came out, i couldn't understand why people hated it, it's so good and well acted.
I was really young when I went to see it at the cinema but the reason I was disappointed was because it was marketed as a horror and it's more of a drama. I think I'd love it now! I just think the marketing let it down at the time
David Farrier has a netflix show : dark Tourist
Yes! I loved it, I think I mentioned it in this video. I want him to have a new one
If you need to watch a disturbing movie i would highly suggest A Regular Woman from 2019 it is very sad and based on a real case.
Oh thank you
I love Jennifer Jason Leigh in Single White Female & Bridget Fonda is solid as well. Guilty pleasure 🍿 !
27:02 actually it is a sequel
2:32 cool vampires sign me up. Hopefully theirs blood in it
that is a great goal with movies !!! i am going to attempt that !!! great reviews as always !!!
Emma, does Surf Shark allow you to watch BBC’s iPlayer in the UK?
Worked for me doing that a few years back for some reality tv
Cheers, gonna give it a try!
please review Meat Grinder
2010 uncut 102 min version of this Taiwanese film(been asking for years you may have done already idk ❤️✌️
Clive Barker's Books of Blood are great, but Midnight Meat Train was pretty weak. A better film adapted from those short stories is Dread. It's not the greatest film ever, but it was better than what I expected, after having been disappointed by Meat Train. I also suspect that the writer of Martyrs lifted the idea from Barker's Dread, but this just a theory. It's more obvious if you read the short story, I think.
I felt the same way about Bob Marley:One Love… very disappointing. The people who loved it probably don’t really know or love Bob Marley’s music or his activism. Both his wife and his son were really involved in the film and it felt censored and whitewashed.
Emma, Any chance you could do some suggestions for women based movies… horror or otherwise for women’s history month. I watch alot of women (celebrated/historical) documentaries and mockumentaries this month To celebrate women (much needed this year since we in America are rolling back the years to the 1950s… i like to break it up with some fun in between. I watched Jennifer’s body already… cause it’s highly underrated and amazing! And the triple whammy of female director/writer/leads! One of my faves!
Can you review the others and riding the bullet❤
I liked the meta parts of butterfly kisses but it bugged me cos the concept of the monster is basically stolen off Doctor Who the weeping angels are the same in concept the dont blink and they get closer ect
🖤
Props on watching Butterfly Kisses. Really freaky! I kept trying to see how long I could go without blinking after watching 😆
How long could you last?
@@spookyastronauts about 20 seconds. The trick is to focus your eyes on something in the distance, that seemed to help. 😌
Hahaha
I remember watching The Seasoning House a few years ago. A few scenes were almost unbearable, but horror movies with a sensitive theme like sex trafficking is difficult to pull off.
4:33 cool Mexican. I Mexican to
If only The Midnight Meat Train has better effects. The CGI ruined it for me. I even tried to watch it again but I just can't get past that.
Oh, and Return to OZ has always been a favorite of mine since childhood. I prefer it to The Wizard of OZ.
Emma if you like Indian movie you should definitely check out movie " Tumbaad"...
I have! I did a review for it but people were so upset by my thoughts on it I took it down because I got threats
SLAY
No fan of Ferrara's The addiction, huh? Yeah, maybe it IS an acquired taste.
Yeah
I didn't really watch much this month I did binge and still watching BBC crime drama Line Of Duty and didn't watch much films I saw Madame Web wasn't a fan but not really much horror stuff.
Emma is cute !!.....but,she has mean tattoos !!!!!!!😆
Never figured you for a Swiftie 😉
Why not ?
I don't know; I just don't get that vibe from you..😄
5:45 they look nothing alike
Watch Habit.
I’ve seen it!
@@spookyastronauts Cool. Yeah it was from back in the day so..Larry Fessenden was in some interesting stuff. Thank you.
"we have single white female at home!" 😂
Hi
Emma talking about Single white female and being like I watch it every year, I love it and her rating is 3 stars? I just thought that was funny
Haha yeah I know it’s bad I just love it
I was so disappointed with "Lord of Misrule"
👻❤️
