I’m in agreement with you I do think it’s definitely a flawed movie with a script that could’ve been way better. They were trying to with the same characterization and style as the original Alien but falls flat. I think the thematic elements of faith and the actual brutality of creation that came with the Engineers definitely should’ve been given a chance before Fox and Ridley scrapped it cause the audience wanted to see Xenomorphs which I can definitely understand why people wouldn’t want their sci fi stories about Jesus :/

2024-11-02 11:42:39 +0000 UTCHehe damn, that's a response, I like it :D And to be clear I actually do like Prometheus, I would go so far as to say I REALLY liked it when it came out, but on subsequent viewings it gets harder and harder for me to ignore just how stupid some of the things they're doing is, and it gets to the point of being distracting and annoying. But it's not a bad movie, and David is a great character played to perfection by Fassbender, after Ripley he is imo the strongest character out of all the movies.

2024-11-02 03:28:39 +0000 UTCSure but scientists have historically done dumb things all the time. Rosalind Franklin got ovarian cancer from prolonged exposure to X-ray radiation discovering the DNA double helix structure despite decades of records showing nerve damage. Marie Curie who won the Nobel Prize in chemistry used to carry test tubes of radioactive isotopes in her lab costs. David Pritchard, who was an immunologist, studying how certain parasites actually can benefit bodily immune response by injecting HOOKWORMS under his skin. Often times the difference between being a genius and a mad idiot is if you survive to tell your research.

2024-11-01 21:39:21 +0000 UTCI had never heard of When Evil Lurks so I had to look it up, and it looks great, so even if it does not end up on James's poll, know that you at least made one person watch it :)

2024-11-01 21:14:51 +0000 UTCI did a horror (or at least horror adjacent) movie a day all October, and When Evil Lurks was one of my absolute favourites, so that's my recommendation.

2024-11-01 20:21:22 +0000 UTCPrometheus (2012) if you’re looking for a blend between sci-fi, slasher horror, and the philosophy of man, alien, and machine
The American Captain
2024-11-01 19:45:35 +0000 UTCI’m holding out for those too! They sound interesting!

2024-11-01 19:18:37 +0000 UTCNice, hope Pulse will win next week! I would also recommend Nosferatu from 1979, really magnificent with great atmosphere, I prefer this one rather than the one from 1922

2024-11-01 19:06:10 +0000 UTCYep, interesting that the man behind Mungo wrote some of Late Night iirc
Kelvin
2024-11-01 19:03:35 +0000 UTCReally keeping my fingers crossed for Lake Mungo and Pulse next week
Michael Proch
2024-11-01 19:01:05 +0000 UTCGood picks. Candyman is a classic of the slasher era. I'll recommend the Rob Zombie trilogy again. Very Robert Rodriguez ish movies. Also Dwight is in the first movie lol. To be clear, those aren't zombie movies. Rob Zombie is the lead singer from White zombie and Rob Zombie.
