    The problem with that formaldehyde scene is that the vapor coming off of those bottles, empty ones too, would have knocked them out or killed them before they could finish dumping even half of them down the drain. Also, formaldehyde isn't a mutagen. It's a germicide. It would have killed whatever it came into contact with long before it could mutate anything.

    @Thrythlind 5 дней назад

    The origins of Dracula are not left to mystery in the novel. There's a section where Van Helsing discusses what he has learned about Dracula from his contacts in Europe and they do a lot of their strategizing based on what history tells them about Dracula. (and to be clear, it is a fictionalized history with Stoker portraying him as a barbaric and willfully evil creature with no sympathetic traits).
    He was an aristocrat who learned sorcery which allowed him to become a vampire and live forever.

    Many on this list fell about as they went along. One literally during the end credits. So unless you stop after 10 minutes the rest is going to suck. Formaldehyde is a lazy chemical. Which I think was tacked on by the American distributor as it is the only scene in English. As formaldehyde is just poisonous it cannot mutate.

    • @Idontwantone950
      @Idontwantone950 7 дней назад

      I think the original was a cheesy cornfest and not the least bit scary. I found it disappointing to watch after having read the book. As far as the new one, it’s much scarier and the acting is better. I think a lot of people judge it through the lens of nostalgia rather than it being actually good because I don’t remember anyone in the 90’s saying how great it was.
      As far as you not liking the kids, I think what you want are the kids from Stranger Things rather than the flawed kids that were written in the book. I’m personally glad the movie stuck more closely to the source material in that regard because the whole point of the losers club is that they weren’t perfect.

    The car crash in in Descent cheapens the drama by making it a Splatter scene...so no. And Evil lurks was good but the last minutes were so terrible that a good beginning does not rescue a whole movie. A movie starts were it starts and ends were it ends. And wasn`t the babysitter thing not taken from Black Christmas? Besides that, its the famous and good part of When a stranger calls, the rest is actually quite mediocre.

    I knew The Descent would be utter crap, but that's because I'm not a child. While the premise is good, the movie is absolutely destroyed by as you call them "tired tropes". The biggest one being absolutely hatable characters that do everything wrong, and stupidly. These 5 women are so annoyingly obnoxious and dumb that I was actually cheering for the monsters to kill them all. These second is lazy writing. You see, reviewers like you (among others) keep missing the fact that the biggest "trope" (God I hate that word) is stupid characters. Instead of writing characters that are smart and make good decisions, but simply get outsmarted by the monsters, you end up with annoying characters that have to do stupid things in order to advance the plot. This movie is absolute garbage, but most people aren't smart enough to understand this massive failing that infects so many horror movies. It's like how every character that is running from the bad guy must trip and fall, instead of simply making the bad guy faster than they are.
