The Poughkeepsie Tapes is a #mockumentary where investigators find hundreds of vhs tapes chronicling the work (torture, murder, dismemberment) of a local, illusive serial killer. Not just that but video of his failed efforts a potential victims that never were. It’s very eerie and feels a little to real. I posted clips on IG & TT and people kept asking if it was fiction. #horror #film #cinemastodon #serialkiller #truecrime #fiction
@Macabre_ish #ThePoughkeepsieTapes is so fucking wild! Been a few years since I’ve watched it, but I enjoyed it. I’m also the weirdo that enjoyed the #AugustUnderground trilogy.
@lunchb0x_b I’m just about to pull that trilogy out 😁
@Macabre_ish I honestly loved it. A lot of people feel like it’s just too much, and I definitely get that, but it’s just right up my alley.
@lunchb0x_b I agree. I enjoy quite a bit that people find too extreme. I don’t post too much of that because people start getting weird and aggressive about it.
@Macabre_ish Did you also watch #ASerbianFilm? That’s one I’m not sure I could stand to watch again, but I can at least admit that it does what it sets out to do.
@lunchb0x_b I did indeed. That’s a rough watch!
@Macabre_ish a couple years back, I had a list of stuff like that I wanted to watch. Got through a few of them, but that one halted things and I didn’t watch the rest of my list. I’m not sure what all I had on it, but I know Salo was one of them I didn’t get to. August Underground was so on that list. Those and the damn French movie with the flaying scene I can never remember the name of.
@lunchb0x_b Was it Martyrs? I have Salo on laserdisc! I understand, you gotta take a break from these movies.
@Macabre_ish Yeah, Martyers is it! I watched the original and it was alright. Didn’t watch the remake though. I heard it was kinda bad.
@lunchb0x_b Yeah the remake was really unnecessary.
@Macabre_ish I may make my way back around to Salo eventually. I wish I could remember what else I had on the list. You have any recommendations?
@lunchb0x_b Absolutely! Just to name a few…Audition, Guinea Pig series, The Seasoning House, Cannibal Holocaust, Bone Tomahawk, Green Inferno, American Mary…
@Macabre_ish I’ve seen all of those except The Seasoning House, American Mary and the Guinea Pig series. American Mary is the Soska Sisters, right? I’ve heard mixed reviews on that one. I heard the Guinea Pig series can be pretty rough, but I’d like to see them. Not sure where to watch them though. Not heard of The Seasoning House. Cannibal Holocaust, I’ve seen a few times. It’s not a great movie, but I really enjoy Cannibal stuff. Love The Green Inferno. Audition is awesome!
@lunchb0x_b Yes, American Mary is by the Soskas! I really like it, even if the ending did piss me off. I know I have others but I need to peruse and just make and keep a list. Oh and May is very good!
@Macabre_ish I think I’ve come across that one, but never bothered to watch it. I may do so one of these days.
