My roommate and I are horror connoisseurs, if you consider "collecting literal shit" a form of high-brow collection.

We've seen almost every horror movie on Netflix, though we never get to the end because the lineup is always changing.

It honestly reshapes your perception. There's nothing more surreal then going "hey...wasn't that girl in Shitty Horror movie 32?" and then getting horrified at the fact that we're invested enough to remember these things. We know every trope, call out every twist. It makes finding the surprisingly good shit all the better.

Trivia: one of the main characters from Don't Blink is also an Umbrella Soldier in Resident Evil 2.

Dude watch Murder Party, and get an Amazon Shudder Add-on subscription if you haven't already. I was scraping bottom of the barrel with Netflix's selection a year ago, and Shudder offers a lot of great or at least interesting and new movies that Netflix doesn't have. Amazon Shudder singlehandedly convinced me that the horror comedy genre was actually worth it.

Oh no, up until now I forgot they started Shudder in Canada a week or so ago. I really shouldn't add the expense right now but I could try to convince somebody who's bumming my Netflix to get it and give me the password.
