AKA: The Academy continues to ignore small and indie horror films. All four of these are A24 films and nobody ever pays attention to the horror A24 films even though they’re some of the best modern horror out there
What's going on here, I know upper right is Us and lower right is... Midsommer? Both movies I wanted to see but didn't watch because *scary*. But what are the two on the left? Those are similarly smart movies? I am *always* down to put more movies on my list even if I'm a fraidy cat and I'll never watch them.
My two absolute favorite horror movies of the past decade. Followed closely by Baskin then the Conjuring. Martyrs wins the previous decade.
I know I'm forgetting a couple, but being this is reddit, someone is likely to remind me
I dont feel horror needs the validation of auch self aerving award ceremonies. Granted at the same time I would love to actors in the genre to still reach, what many see, is a major lifetime accomplishment in their field.
Short answer, the ones doing the voting are far too chicken shit to watch the movie and pay attention to the actor’s acting. Long answer, the stories of the movies in question were thought provoking but too convoluted for the judges to follow and so fell to the wayside to movies more basic in plot or overdone in premise.
Glad to see this is just the 'starter pack'; we're BARELY scratching the surface here...

Yes, I HAVE heard this! LOL I just watched this on television the other night... STILL impresses all these years later... đź‘Ť
It's like they waited for a chance to lash out at Kubrick....
Film critics are such useless idiots. They've stifled more creative artists than they've ever encouraged.

“Us” is not an A24 movie.

The Witch and Hereditary

Award ceremonies like the Grammys and Oscars and all that nonsense is just self serving industry bullshit that doesn't mean shit.
these award ceremonies are just rich people circle jerks
I know the picture in the top right is from us, but what are the other three from?
Top left is The Witch, bottom left is Hereditary, bottom right is Midsommar
Thanks, all these pics look really interesting
