I've been wanting to make a post here about what I have watched recently.
The last three Asian horror films I've watched were:
CUBE: I personally didn't enjoy this as much as the original cube. I don't think it was different enough to bother watching if you have seen the original.
The Sadness: I skipwatched this one because I'm not big on gore for gore's sake (I only really enjoy campy gore, like in one of my favorites Dead Alive). It was just okay to me. I did really like the main zombie, the actor was great at being terrifying!
Cure: I finally got around to watching this film which has been on my to watch list for a while. I really enjoyed it. I don't think it was quite as good as Pulse but the storyline was fairly unique and I liked the hypnosis aspect.
The last three Western horror films I've watched were:
Crimes of the Future: I enjoyed the idea but I think the writing could have been better. Maybe because I'm an artist and know a lot about perfomance art already that aspect of the film didn't feel all that subversive to me. It did have great acting and set design. But I don't think that Cronenburg will ever top his films from the 80s at this point.
House of Wax: I had watched the remake of this as a kid and actually enjoyed it. This one was fun too. I enjoyed the wax figure effects and of course Vincent Price! I would personally say it was better than The Last Man on Earth but not as good as House on Haunted Hill which is my favorite Vincent Price fare that I've seen so far.
The Black Phone: This movie was super hyped online but I would say that this one was also just okay. The actors all did a great job, especially the child actors, but the storyline was predictable and not scary at all.
I'll have to watch Incantation. It has good reviews online so I'm looking forward to it!
