I think "Velocifero" stands up well with the two previous albums ("Burning Up" and "They Gave You a Heart…" are awesome), but "Witching Hour" is the definite peak. I'm really partial to "International Dateline." I think they really represent a certain segment of the 2000s sound.

Oh shit, I know that line, but never knew they were calling out MJ. Is that really what they were doing?

Just because you watch a lot of horror doesn't mean your opinions are good. I wouldn't change my mind after reading this, especially when you can't even get the facts right about the series. The Scream films are arguably one of the most successful horror series, especially for having four parts.

That's the Springfield Gorge.

Yeah, it just wouldn't make sense for her character to do that at all. As it is, the one-off episode was great.

Really, though? I watched a news special on the case and read the court documents. Almost everything the presented in the film happened in real life. Which parts are you talking about?

This came out around the same time as Compliance, which I also think could be on a best of the decade list and is a perfect example of truth is stranger than fiction. That would be an absurd movie except for the fact that every plot point actually happened.

You're right. I guess I didn't think so many people readily accepted Bourdin's theory of the cover-up. I guess I just take offense to having someone tell me the film is making me fall for his lies when I didn't, but that's a petty distinction. I thought it was pretty obvious that he was a liar. I agree with you in

Hmmm, yeah I guess I thought that was all bullshit from Bourdin. I guess the fact that it is so ambiguous is part of the movie's charm.

Like from space? Or from Europe? Because I don't think him not being the boy was ever a twist. If he's from space, I think I missed something, but yes, that would make perfect sense.

But I think most people didn't fall for his lies? I think maybe some people made the same mistake as the family, but I don't think a majority of the audience did. I certainly don't think it's an explicit thing the film sets out to accomplish the way this reviewer makes it sound. The family was taken in by him.

"to ensure that the audience winds up making exactly the same mistake that the family did—again, often without even realizing it."

Wait, what is this twist you are all talking about? I've seen the movie.

I agree with every word in Becca James's paragraph. "The Cabin in the Woods" is seriously some overrated garbage. It has nothing new or interesting to say about horror as a genre and it isn't particularly funny (or scary). It's like something a high schooler wrote, and I can only look past people liking it if they

*Applause*

Hooray for Nollywood.

I would like to alternately posit that Shame, Place Beyond the Pines, Blue Valentine, and Another Earth are garbage.

They pretty much are though (a reference to "Jaws").

I mean, there's no way he isn't just a troll, right? It's so subtle, but the fact that everyone hates him and he still persists makes me think he's a troll. I've never read a comment by him that didn't make me shake my head.

Holy shit, what a terrible list.
