    Recent movie watching (or, in the case of CLEARCUT, rewatching). It and NEVER LET GO definitely the best of the bunch. VERMINES had great casting but was only middling as a scary movie. 28 YEARS LATER was all over the shop, quality-wise. HYPNOSEN was interesting but not entirely successful.

    Modern horror movie nomenclature is so boring & generic. Don't Breathe, Speak No Evil, Never Let Go, Hold Your Breath, Imaginary, etc. Bring back the days of horror movies being titled, like, Crazed Vampires From The Ouija Board and Mistress Demon Ghost & The Horny Witches.

    They're screening Never Let Go (1960), featuring one of Peter Sellers' most disturbing performances, at the Cinema Museum this Saturday, in a centenary season. Q& A after.

    Trailers: Never Let Go, The Monkey, Lee, Joker: Folie à Deux As widely reported, the film begins with a content warning about the subject matter. This is very understandable after watching the film, even if it is largely done with restraint. Heed the warning if necessary.

    rapid fire movie review. The Gorge: fun idea, would have been great to see practical costume work and less CG. overall was ok Never Let Go: GREAT performances, surprisingly compelling movie despite being predictable. I'd recommend. Humane: Good fun. bit disappointed with the ending. I'm team Bob.

    Never Let Go and Woman In The Yard are basically the same film. Both are horror films featuring a Black mom with two kids and a dog. They deal with similar themes. Both are bad films, but only one of them is totally irresponsible for how it tackles its theme (Woman in the Yard). Disappointing! 😞

    Cuckoo is alright. I liked Cuckoo. I Saw the TV Glow really doesn't count as horror but it's got elements of it. BEST movie by far. Amazing. Never Let Go. That's a good one. A+ The Substance is INSANE. Abigail is fun. The First Omen is another good one.

    I'm gonna keep an eye on this list. I've not seen a truly scary movie since I was a kid, but I do have some creepy favs. Never Let Go was unnerving. Tale of Two Sisters had me a bit jacked up the first time I saw it. Rigor Mortis was bad ass and one of my all-time favs is Silent Hill.

    Never Let Go (2024): The challenge of movies like this is that they have one central question to answer — “Is this real or is it imagined?” — and if the movie spends most of its runtime indulging that tension, you’ve only got half a film. The other half was misdirection and gamesmanship.

    Watching Never Let Go Fatally muddled Halle Berry horror where she is raising two kids in an isolated cabin. They must stay connected to the cabin by a rope or the (unseen to kids) griblies will get them. Film wants us to question its reality, but also shows us the monsters. It's no Frailty.

    Never Let Go (2024) Aside from the too obvious allegory, this film IMO suffers from a meandering midsection as well as one big-ass plot hole (there could be more, but there is one that I noticed). Too bad because the cast is good and there's some decent scares to be found. Oh well!

    33. Never Let Go (2024) A mother tries to protect her two sons from an evil force the lurks outside their door. Great performances from the three leads. The story is let down by refusing the commit to its premise. The last 10 minutes has about 2 too many twists.

    It's always fun when a movie plays with the idea but doesn't do it. There's a scene like that in Never Let Go where after a particularly hard winter they float the idea of eating the dog, but something else happens before they can do anything like that. Don't worry, the dog survives the movie.

    Brimming with inventive promise, Never Let Go is a movie of half-moves that never resolves its post-apocalyptic and psychological horror concepts. Halle Berry tries her best, but it becomes a frustrating endeavor by its conclusion. #HorrorFamily #Meh #BetterLuckNextTime
