I recently saw “Rampage” from 2009. Its basically a movie where a spree shooter is portrayed as the good guy/anti-hero. Several parts gave me that pit in your stomach, teeth gritting uncomfortable moment. I really hated it. Although I’m not surprised there are sequals I am disappointed and will not be watching them.

    Idk if I’d classify it as non-Horror, but Threads is the scariest movie I’ve ever seen.

    Its a movie from 1984 about a nuclear war scenario in the UK. The movie kept close to the science of the time, and made significant choices in casting and presentation that makes it all feel so much more real.

    • Casting unknown actors who look like regular people instead of celebrities
    • Giving all the actors relatively average Joe, nobody, roles for their characters
    • Presenting the movie in a documentary format as if its real
    • Characters exiting the narrative to unknown fates in the aftermath
    • The overall sense of hopelessness, dread and loss throughout the

    And it’s free to watch on YouTube.

    Apparently, they’re making a modern version of it too.
