Join us in the lounge for some spooky tales
Franchise films dominate the cinema landscape due to their built-in fan base, financial safety, and the comforts of nostalgia. While offering familiarity and escapism, they also stifle creativity, limiting original storytelling. Despite pushing unique ideas aside, audiences continue to embrace franchises, ensuring their prevalence in modern culture and streaming.
The Amityville Horror is not just any ghost story; it's a cultural phenomenon. This chilling tale of 112 Ocean Avenue blurs the lines between fact and fiction. From the DeFeo family tragedy to the Lutz family's harrowing experiences, the story has inspired books, movies, and endless debate. Whether you believe it's a true haunting or a masterful hoax, the Amityville Horror continues to intrigue and terrify, inviting you to explore the thin veil between reality and the supernatural.
Movies often rely on dark sets for horror, but with changing viewing trends, it's time to reconsider. While darkness creates an eerie vibe, it can be overused, dulling the impact and making it hard to see. Balancing light and dark is key to enhancing the narrative and using cinematic tools effectively. What's your take?
