Seems to have started with that movie "Hereditary". Whats scary about it? Its weird,gross and creepy.

Its about as much of a horror film as "Caligula". Anybody can make a movie with a bunch of demonic/satanic imagery and call it a horror film. Weapons was better than Hereditary as a movie,but same premise.

Designed to creep you out with satanic imagery rather than actually be scary:respect:

I loved Hereditary and I can definitely see the influence in Weapons but my feeling is the opposite of yours. I thought Hereditary was better in every way.

I, for one, welcome our new space overlords.
Nikka I grew up Nigerian Movies. I've seen this type of movie a thousand times :unimpressed:

A dying old woman uses witchcraft to haunt a family and the children the community to prolong her own life.

This is Nollywood 101:dead:

It's a fun movie but better than Sinners?

Give me a fukking break:mjlol:

I remember being more grossed out than on the edge of my seat or entertained. Weapons actually did have characters you were rooting for. Had you thinking people were involved who actually werent and a twist. Had a clear villian and enjoyable payoff. None of that "leave it up to the audience" open ending nonsense i hate. Hereditary was lacking in story and character building. I dont remember rooting for anyone in that film.



Im struggling to think of anything Weapons gave me that Sinners didnt. Sinners was just more fun and had better acting performances. I think it had more room to do those things being a commercial popcorn flick of course.

Two way different movies. Sinners was a more entertaining film in my opinion whereas Weapons had 2 or 3 really good moments, and that was about it..

I agree with the clear villain and characters to root for, especially the kid and Thanos. I still thought it was pretentious, it just didn't hit for me the way I hoped. I thought the ending was rushed also, it felt it was so stupid and had me thinking the entire time... "them kids gon be fukked up for life and responsible for mass murders as adults."
