Is sci fi horror the most patrician of genres?
ummmm source? >>67063967
also the genre has a lot of potential, but videogames have realized it better than film so far. Event horizon notwithstanding
>>67063967
Film adaptations of stage plays is the most patrician genre

transformers 2
>>67063967
the only thing scary about that was the absolutely horrifying animation
>>67063967
I just finished watching pandorum
it was fucking great - really deserves more recognition, it's like the spiritual successor to event horizon
>>67064153
I love that Event Horizon scared me shitless when I was a kid, but no one I know irl actually know of the movie. But I hear people mentioning it all the time here on /tv/.

A cinematic in a game called Armored Core: For Answer
>>67063967
gothic horror is the most patrician of horror subgenres, fucking disgusting pleb
>>67064262
The movie that has such shit action scenes can never be good.

Ah, Bava. The Kubrick of Bloody Disgusting crowd.

hey man, the atmosphere was pretty great, solid premise, the whole opening was great- I was really pleased with it. It's hard to come by a good sci-fi so it felt refreshing
once the after-glow has worn off I'll be able to admit it's a solid seven

italian horror is pretty patrician, italian cinema in general but it's hard to ignore movies like suspira and deep red
any other good recommendations?
>>67063967
Hard sci fi is the most patrician genre. It is an avenue to examine philosophical concepts such as consciousness and humanity and examine deeply ingrained assumptions..

The only thing I remember appreciating about it is that it looks like a bigger budget movie than it is. I'd put it slightly ahead of Sunshine because Boyle is a pretentious hack. It's nowhere near Event Horizon.

Nigger, there was never a hard sci fi anything because only a minuscule part of the audience would be able to understand it. Inb4 some redditor mentiones Carruth, the mumblecore king of lowbrow sci fi.

the one with the older brother from alpha dog
shit that movie was forgettable as fuck
event horizon was actually frightening
>>67064697
Alright fine. Sci fi with a focus on worldbuilding and examining the implications of alternate situations as opposed to science fantasy.
>>67064668
>Sunshine
It disappointed a lot of people who came to the theater strictly for sci-fi, not horror.
Only thing I remember about Sunshine is several people walking out once the mood shifted.
>>67064755
I'd agree but only Tarkovsky managed to make something out of it. It's usually just a caveat for those that don't know how to film a movie.
>>67064760
The horror is fine, the movie falls apart when Boyle tries to hammer home the painfully simplistic metaphor like he's pushing interracial breeding grounds at the olympic games opening ceremony.

Thanks now that you mention it I recognize that mech from the box art
>>67063967
scifi horror is great but theres way too little of it
>>67065450
It is the worst horror and the worst sci-fi
Enjoy your Supernova shit

>s-stop liking things i don't like
go get a juice box from your mommy and calm down.
Alien is horror sci-fi and one of the best of either

>>67064262
>watch it first time
>think Man if it turns out they're on Earth this entire time it'll be a really shitty twist
Well gotta go watch Screamers now.
Yo, Phantoms was the bomb!

Aged like fine milk, but I still like it.
