Have any of ye seen the French movie Inside?
That was crazier than Martyrs I thought.

Yes i saw it. It was fairly obvious what was going on from the beginning, but i still enjoyed it

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

The original Martyrs. Didn't find it hard to watch which had me thinking about the extent of my own desensitization.

I had the same experience, but I came out of the other end of it feeling like the pinnacle of gore had been reached, that there wasn't really any further to go, and as a result - it seems anyway - I just haven't been interested in that kind of psycho-gore horror since at all. It's not that I didn't appreciate it, although the actually story and ending are fairly banal, but its horror extremity left me kind of cold and safe. Requiem for a Dream hits similar extremes, in a different domain, sure, but that really left me shaken both times I saw it, because of its "There but for the grace of God..." angle I suppose. Dunno. Midsomar was the first new horror I've watched in years and years, and it's because of this that I still haven't gotten around to things like Hereditary, which I'm sure is great, but I just don't feel excited enough by the idea of watching it to actually put it on.

I generally don't bother with new horror or gore movies. They don't really do anything for me and I went into this not knowing what to expect.

Requiem rattled me as a young fella. Such an amazing film. Hereditary was recommended by an ex last year so I watched it for peace and was more than pleasantly surprised.

Yeah I was the same, thought it was alright, nothing overly special but decent enough

Requiem is one I've been meaning to watch for years, must get around to it soon

[Eoin McLove]

Requiem is an amazing film but I'm not sure that I ever need to see it again. It's so relentlessly grim.

Hereditary was recommended to me last night. Going to lash it on in a bit. That or Requiem for a Dream.

[open face surgery]

Requiem is an infinitely better movie if you haven't seen it.

[astfgyl]

Cool, I'll give that one a go so. I haven't seen either. Sound.

[Ollkiller]

Aye Requiem is some film. One of those you can't really describe to someone. You just have to watch it.

[Emphyrio]

Watched Martyrs there. Enjoyable would be the wrong term but I was entertained for the most part. Certainly not as grim as Requiem or even The Deer Hunter.

[open face surgery]

Watched The Godfather there. Haven't watched it in 17 years. Beautiful.

Will watch II tomorrow and been meaning to throw on Deer Hunter so will do that as well.

[Black Shepherd Carnage]

Watched The Untouchables there for the first time since I was a kid. Very entertaining, the two hours flew by, but not quite up there with others it could be compared to.

The Deer Hunter is another I haven't seen since I was about 13, must stick it on the list too. Russian roulette is all I remember, and even then only vaguely.

[Carnage]

The first hour is torture, from what I remember. That wedding scene just wouldn't end. I get that it was setting up how close they were, but I was relieved when it ended.

Watched the hills have eyes remake.
Really good film and now I can't get that bloody california dreamin song out of my head.

Another few remakes I can think that were really good as well are the evil dead and Dawn of the dead.
