FROGGE'S PROFILE

Turkish Star Wars (1982) - Absolutely hilarious low budget rip-off of the Star Wars movies and I kind of like it way better than all of them.

Dream Scenario (2023) - Simple but well made Nic Cage movie, the messaging is a little obvious but not so much that it feels preachy or
shallow.

The Boy and the Heron (2023) - Easily up there with some of Miyazaki's best work for me, I love surreal and abstract movies like this and it gave me a lot to chew on.

Poor Things (2023) - I really hope either this movie or Anatomy of a Fall win the best picture Oscar, it would be well deserved.

The Holdovers (2023) - This movie feels very familiar, which can be a detriment to me sometimes, but I think in this case it added to the cozy vibe.

When Evil Lurks (2023) - Absolutely unrelenting and brutal horror movie, and very fresh despite the script feeling messy at times, this is honestly what I wanted but didn't get out of the Evil Dead franchise.

Men (2022) - A really polarizing horror movie, but I honestly thought it was very smartly written and well directed.

Beach Party franchise (1963 - 1966) - Comedy franchise with some nice vibes, and kind of an interesting time capsule for the 60s, but I only really liked the first movie and the rest just made for okay background noise.

Trilogy of Death (1990 - 1998) - Three short horror films that aren't really related other than all being from the same director, they're not very good and not really worth talking about.

Ice Age 1-3, Scrat Tales miniseries and two holiday specials (2002 - 2022) - Y'all already know I love the first 3 Ice Age movies and nothing's changes. The Scrat Tales miniseries is actually really cute and enjoyable, best thing to come out of the franchise in a long time. The Easter special is meh and the Christmas special is so awful it's hard to believe it exists.

All three adaptations of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (1971-2023) - I'd never seen the Gene Wilder one before and it honestly holds up super well, I loved that whole tunnel sequence, and it felt like there was a surprising amount of horror to it. The 2005 Johnny Depp remake looked kinda ugly because of the amount of CGI and greenscreen but it was a worthwhile and very different take on the story than the Gene Wilder version. Wonka was very mid and boring.

Carnival of Souls & Remake (1962 & 1998) - I absolutely love the original, it holds up incredibly well and is simple and accessible while also being fairly thought-provoking for those who may wanna watch movies a bit more critically. The remake is just goofy, boring and bad bargain bin horror movie shlock.

We're All Going to the World's Fair (2021) - One of my favorite horror movies of recent times, I wrote like a full on 1600 word essay on why I love it so much.

The Gathering (2002) - Esoteric occult horror film that kinda has an interesting concept but is also pretty boring and not all that worthwhile; there's better alternatives to this out there like Born of Fire (1987) or Dark Waters (1993).

Saludos Amigos (1942) - Disney Donald Duck and Goofy animation that has some creative and very aesthetically pleasing visuals but was kinda boring even at 42 minutes, I prefer The Three Cabarellos (1944)

A bunch of horror short films - As part of a movie challenge on a discord server I'm on.

Nikki, Wild Dog of the North (1961) - Kinda boring family movie with a very questionable amount of animal endangerment.

Manodrome (2023) - Shallow, pointless, forgettable movie that feels like the kind of thing Netflix dumps out 40 times a year.

Migration (2023) - The new Illumination animated movie, and it feels like it had a little more love and care put into it than their usual stuff, but it's still not great.

A Dark Song (2016) - Boring, pointless horror movie.
