Black Christmas 2006 always makes me feel festive and a bit sick (flesh cookies).
Horror films.

I haven't seen much chatter about it in this thread but I feel like literally every one of you horror girlies would love Nurse 3D. Paz de la Huerta's acting choices are the highest level of camp. I've seen it four times over the years and it still manages to baffle and bewilder.

Ahh I loved this movie. One of the best I've seen during my mom's classic "watch horror movies" nights. Finding one that isn't objectively shit is always a delight.
I, myself, am watching Cats 2019 for the first time with mom right now. This is a lot.
Just watched the 1972 TV movie Home for the Holidays starring Sally Field as a young woman who returns home, along with her three sisters, at Christmas to see her dying father who suspects his wife is poisoning him. It's a creepy-cozy TV movie with elements of the slasher genre and it's very well done. Too bad Sally didn't do more horror movies.
Also: costume design by Zaldy.
I watched the original Black Christmas on YouTube today.
It was very good! It had loads of genuinely creepy moments - Clare and the closet being one. I think I've watched a remake - possibly the more recent one, and wasn't that fussed by it but maybe I should try it again - and the 2006 one.

Just this one, it's bonkers but fun. The virtue signalling recent one hit every bum note. The film itself felt offensive to the original.
I have a love/hate relationship with 2006 Black Christmas. That cast? Omg a dream. The dark Christmas tone? On point. The gore? A thrill. But it still ultimately ends up being kind of shit. Too much back story to the killers and overall just messy, there are so many scene changes that it gets kind of boring and hard to follow.
Also I just watched the US version and it’s way worse than the European version? Did not like the scene of Lauren being molested in her bed which was just not a thing I’ve seen before in previous versions. And they also swapped Michelle Trachtenberg’s death scene out to the ice skate version which isn’t as good.

We watched A Banquet last night. I love me a good slow burner, and this one was incredibly well acted and set up. Just this growing sense of anxiety and decay. My only complaint is I would have liked a tiny bit more payoff, but it's easily the best thing I've seen on Tubi.
It's not a patch on the original. There have been a few good scares but the original was really quite cold and eerie, whereas this one is more of a gore-fest and trying to shock (rather than scare) as much as possible. Still, it passed some time when I have no job!
Totally agree. The original is a masterpiece. It has tons of atmosphere. I was disappointed in the 2006 originally but have since come to enjoy it for it's bold, over the top trash that it is. The recent one has only made me enjoy the 2006 one more.
