Gotta watch Hatchet if you love Friday the 13th!
There was an old Horror club years ago. I believe I last posted in it over 5 years ago, but it was pretty popular back in the day. If this catches on again I'll be here weekly!

I'm hoping it will!
My folk horror addiction is kicking in again with Christmas coming. Dug my copies of The Stone Tape, Whistle and I'll Come to You and A Warning to the Curious out the loft today, they'll all be getting a rewatch before the end of the year.
Going to dive into some more Algernon Blackwood too. I bought a collected edition of all his work years ago but must have only gotten through about 1/3 of it, and not for lack of quality, The Willows and The Wendigo are both all time classics.

Glad to see fellow horror fans :) I am a horror fanatic myself and planning on having loads of DVDs/Tapes in my collection but mainly the classics more than the current ones.
Watched the classic "Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari" last halloween. One of the early masterpieces of the horror genre, highly recommended.
Did you guys watch the Netflix original "The Haunting of Hill House"?
What did you think of it if you did?

I haven't read them yet, but I heard they're good.
I've got the Centipede Press collection they did as part of their Weird Fiction line. Got the Lovecraft, Poe and Hodgson ones too.
H.P Lovecraft was the God tier of cosmic horror stories.
You should watch the newer Krampus film!

I highly recommend the BBC Ghost Stories for Christmas anthology series. Whisper and I'll Come To You and A Warning to the Curious are particular highlights.

Time to get Hulu!

It started in October. I thought the Halloween episode was just kind of okay. Haven't seen the Thanksgiving episode yet.
Will have to check this out, even if Hulu is a pain in the ass to access in the UK. Always enjoy a good horror anthology and there hasn't been a consitently good one since Masters of Horror, unless you count Black Mirror which definitely has strong horrror elements but is more sci-fi.
That Pooka episode sounds very similar to "The Dummy", an episode of another anthology series called Beasts, and any comparison to something by Nigel Kneale cannot be a bad thing.

There were a few parts on the season that had me on edge so bad I literally felt the blood rush away from my feet towards the center of my body. At first I thought maybe I was going to have a panic attack, but realized that the show did such a good job of scaring me that it activated my bodies flight or fight instincts.
Sadly it ended extremely weak, but everything up to the ending was great.

The ending was weird to me though. The final episode kinda seemed like it had a completely different tone from the rest of the series.
Yeah, I wanted an evil ending of death and hate. I didn't want the weird closure that everyone got. What bull.
I'd also recommend reading the original novel, and the film adaption from the sixties.
Will do!
You can skip the movie from the late nineties, though.
Yeah, I probably won't be able to skip it now..
What's everyone thought about a reboot on Critters?

I enjoyed it well enough. Certainly made up for Leprechaun: Origins.
Wait the new retcon movie just came?

These were some of my favorites as a kid. I'm hoping some effort is put into them and that they aren't some special effect ridden sci-fi channel creation.
I haven't seen anything about it till just now in this thread.

Yup! I'm hyped for it.

I just looked into it and it seems like it's going to be one the cheesy Scyfy channel special. I don't have high hopes for it. I'm expecting a lot of low budget CG and bad acting with big breasted bimbos.
I know that's what makes a lot of B-Horror movies fun to watch, but there's something about continuing a classic that makes me wish for higher effort and quality.

Steve Dash passed away......
:( Well, Steve Dash passed away....
Soo apparently a reboot is in the works for A nightmare on elm street series.....great.,
Always looking for new zombie movies I haven't seen yet. I really wanted to go see Anna and the Apocalypse but the nearest showing is 2 hours away. :( But I watched Life After Beth yesterday on netflix and I really liked it. Those are more funny than anything, if you want something serious I suggest watching Here Alone. Also on netflix.
