🔪Stephen King / Horror Movie Night - Get in Your Vote!🔪

TheresaV — Fri, 25 Jun 2021 08:46:48 GMT

Hi everyone!

It's that time of the month again - We are finally back with our fourth offical Community Movie Night. This time, we had a great suggestion from our very own @Mi-Amigo to do a Stephen King-themed Movie Night. Unfortunately, there are only a few Stephen King films available on the major streaming services, so we added a couple more general horror movies we thought you would like the look (or thrill) of

If you happened to miss our previous Community Movie Nights (e.g. our Thriller Movie Night last month) this is your time to join! As before, the choice of film is yours - We have pre-selected eight Stephen King/Horror-themed films and will let you vote three times over the next three days until we have found the winning film that we then invite you to watch with us on Friday night at 8pm! 🍿

Of course we won't be able to sit together in front of the screen but that doesn't stop us - Right after voting has finished, we will create a special movie night thread here on the community where everyone can discuss the in's and out's and who's and what's whilst watching. I actually am becoming more resilient with every movie night, so hopefully this one won't scare me to death

To explain it a bit more in detail: We have created a bracket that features eight movies to start with. Today you will be able to vote between two movies each and select your favourite four of the bunch in the comment section. Tomorrow we will then continue the voting between everyone's favourite four, and then again the day after tomorrow between your favourite two. The winning movie will then be the star of our movie night on Friday!

Sounds good? Get your microwave popcorn on the ready - set - vote! 🍿🍿🍿

Cleoriff — Tue, 22 Jun 2021 11:09:01 GMT

Oh I didn't realise they weren't on any streaming services @TheresaV . He has written so many books translated into films it would have been a nightmare to choose

Re: 🔪Stephen King / Horror Movie Night - Get in Your Vote!🔪

TheresaV — Tue, 22 Jun 2021 11:23:20 GMT

I know @Cleoriff such a pity I only found them to rent but I thought that wouldn't really be fair for everyone! Fingers crossed they will be back on Netflix soon!

Only the 2019 version is on Netflix I'm afraid @gmarkj

Cleoriff — Wed, 23 Jun 2021 08:21:41 GMT

Pet Semetary (Not seen the 2019 version so if its scarier than the first one...God help us all)

In the Tall Grass

Re: 🔪Stephen King / Horror Movie Night - Get in Your Vote!🔪

Mi-Amigo — Wed, 23 Jun 2021 08:25:59 GMT

1 Pet Sematary

2 In The Tall Grass

Good to see your votes for today
