cool, i know nothing else from seff effriceh except District 9 (good) and Chappie (shit) so will check Oats, they've got stuff on youtube it looks like
film length opinion is 90 minutes is ideal, i read John Waters saying that about comedy before but it applies just as well to horror as far as i'm concerned and i watch little else (with extra broad definition of horror). if i watch something at home after dinner there's a decent chance i'll fall asleep regardless of quality - in fact if i'm enjoying it the probability increases and i'll happily restart after. home setups have their insurmountable limits but there's no such luxury in the cinema
loosely lovecraft is a neat way to put it but i think i've avoided the brunt of that - what i can think of off the top is mainly tv series, brand new cherry flavour (good), lovecraft county (didn't get far), that one with newspaper delivery kids? the shorthand for films i would guess is that the poster is in a pinky purply colour (out of space)
will dl Widow's Bay, i don't have much patience for long series tv but always interested in horror comedy and if individual episodes are fun by themselves it suits me fine, i liked Welcome to Derry well enough on this basis
