All three are good movies. What's the problem, they're popular? Too subtle for the jumpscare audience?

Just watched The Witch last night, really effective and spooky, measured and haunting.

There has never been a scary movie ever made. Film is just not scary. The best you can hope for is well made film with interesting characters, and I thought the babadook was fine in this regard.

>>69139431
Eh... i know what you mean and mostly agree but there are spooky, tense, unsettling films. Bergman's Hour of the Wolf or Shame, The Cell, the parental psycho-pathos of the Babadook, the it's always coming/std allegory of It Follows, and the all alone in the spooky woods of the witch. Not like, omg I'm scared but, nice, this is spooky.

I just saw it last night.

The score was creepy as fuck. The dad was a good actor. The stuff with the actual witch was genuinely creepy, especially when Caleb is slowly walking up to her and then her old lady hand grabs him.

I was indifferent to everything else.

this.
also the art direction was great.

>The score was creepy as fuck.

Reminded me of Jonny Greenwood, really effective.

Dad was a great actor yeah, just read an interview where he said (after losing 30 lbs for the role, and a lot of strength) he and Black Phillip legitimately hated each other from the first time they met eyes, and early on Black Phillip rammed him in the ribs, fucking his shit up, so he had to act on painkillers for the next few weeks, struggling to wrestle w/ the crazed devil goat.

She probably wasn't thinking, she just saw that her life is literally obliterated and there is nothing left for her. Maybe she really did think she was bringing all this death to the family.

Also, if she went to town, or people discovered her, they probably would've burned her anyways.

I agree with your opinions. I liked all three quite a bit. The It Follows score is fucking great. All of these horror films are tapping into that Twilight Zone / allegorical thing very well. Babadook being the least effective for me because I'm not a parent and would have dropped that kid off at child services and lived happily ever after.

I completely agree, they're all just okay movies but when compared to most modern horror films they look like masterpieces. I also downright disliked The Witch, it wasn't creepy or eerie to me at all and the whole atmosphere felt forced by the cinimatography and overuse of score. The only moments that I thought were good was the baby getting mashed up and the very ending and the goat was a badass sometimes
