Movies That Wrecked Us - Reaction Shots Discussion Topic
Added 2018-06-28 08:52:12 +0000 UTCHello movie lovers! This month the second Friday happens to fall on that most special of days, the 13th! But instead of just going with the Friday the 13th movies, or horror movies in general, we're going to be talking about the movies that have had a profound impact on our lives, for better or worse, the films that scared us, scarred us, changed us, wrecked us.
Whether it's Peckinpah inflicting his bizarre mistrust upon us, Haneke teaching us we're wrong for enjoying his films, Jodorowsky doing whatever he does, Sam Neil for having that freaky burned up face on that damned space ship from hell, a cartoon deer getting shot, or a few desperate drug addicts doing everything they can to depress the hell out of us, films have an immense power to shape us.
Which films have challenged you in a way that changed your life?
Which films made you scared of something for a very long time?
What about a film you saw as a child that still lingers to this day?
Which film shocked you but instilled a positive change?
What's a movie that you are glad you saw but you know you will NEVER see again?
What is the value of films like these?
How often do these sorts of films go too far?
Has a movie ever had a profound impact on you that was not intentional, as far as you know, on the part of the filmmakers?
This is for sure shaping up to be one of our more theoretical episodes, but fear not, we'll keep it light and fun while we talk about how Event Horizon made it so I couldn't sleep for six months lol.
Anything else involving this topic you would like to hear Huber and I discuss?
Thanks everyone!
