Where Does King Get His Movie Picks From?
King is super passionate about all kinds of horror - that means the big stuff, and the tiny, indie projects! He actually reads tons of stuff, but Horror Movies are really his jam.
So What Movies Does King Love?
- He had high praise for a movie that was kind of controversial - called "Civil War" - because it's a super intense, political horror-thriller. But he just loves how they did all that stuff about horror!
- He had a bunch of praise for this spider horror movie called "Infested". If you don't like those eight-legged critters - then this one might be a tough watch.
- Another great one, too: "Barbarian." This one will make you really guess. But you should listen to what he said about this horror movie, since he was all in about this film - and I am too now!
- Oh, yeah - King thought that "MaXXXine," this latest flick by Ti West, was the best, because it is actually super fun, and is just another layer to his whole take on horror.
- "A Quiet Place: Day One." If you were all in on the first one - you are gonna love this prequel! It tells that whole alien invasion story, and the cat - just trust me! It's the main event. King really loved it.
- You should totally check out "In a Violent Nature," by Chris Nash, that one is really awesome because it mixes those big slasher vibes, but those horror effects? Those are next level - you just have to check it out. King loved how they used blood!
- Now, King had a lot of love for the black comedy, "The Coffee Table.". You're going to have some laugh out loud moments for this one!
- There's this totally unique movie called "No One Will Save You." The twist: aliens and alien invasion! King thinks this one stands out.
- Then we have "Late Night With the Devil," a really spooky Satanic Panic horror! King was totally impressed.
- "Night Swim." You're going to want to get this one on if you love a haunted house - it is this time about a pool. I bet it'll give you a creepy vibe.
