Horror Movie Night Poll (Patreon)
Content
Horror Movie Night will be today at 6PM PST. Please vote on a movie and we'll choose the top pick at 5PM PST! These are based on your suggestions and some of my own research. I've gone ahead and added the synopsis for these to make it easy on y'all :)
Gonjiam: Haunted Asylum (2018) - KOREAN
Note: Apparently this film was wildly successful and is the second highest grossing horror film in Korea. While I think "found footage" films usually suck, apparently this film is way better than American "found footage" films. What's scarier: this is a real place in Korea and CNN has listed it as one of the freakiest places to go to in the world.
Synopsis: The crew of a horror web series travels to an abandoned asylum for a live broadcast. It soon encounters much more than expected as it moves deeper inside the nightmarish old building.
The Doll Master (2004) - KOREAN
Note: I fucking HATE dolls. That is all.
Synopsis: A male model (Hyeong-tak Shin), a sculptor (Kim Yoo-mi) and others arrive at a creepy museum in the hope that they will be immortalized in doll form.
Death Bell (2008) - KOREAN
Note: I saw trailers for this when I was in Korea and it seemed interesting but I've never seen it. While I've been intrigued to see it, I've been too chicken to start.
Synopsis: Trapped by a maniac, teenage students (Nam Gyu-ri, Kim Bum) must solve a series of puzzles or suffer horrible fates.
The Conjuring (2013) - AMERICAN
Note: I've only heard high praise about this film and have been told it's a "slow burn" scary.
Synopsis: In 1970, paranormal investigators and demonologists Lorraine (Vera Farmiga) and Ed (Patrick Wilson) Warren are summoned to the home of Carolyn (Lili Taylor) and Roger (Ron Livingston) Perron. The Perrons and their five daughters have recently moved into a secluded farmhouse, where a supernatural presence has made itself known. Though the manifestations are relatively benign at first, events soon escalate in horrifying fashion, especially after the Warrens discover the house's macabre history.
The Descent (2005) - BRITISH
Note: I know little about this but anytime I hear this mentioned people groan. I don't know if it's because it's that scary or that bad??? But because of that I'm curious.
Synopsis: The film follows six women who, having entered a cave system, struggle to survive against the humanoid creatures inside.
