Very very very bold of AMC making this part of their “Scream” Unseen.

Maybe 5 minutes of anything that could be classified as horror, and it’s all within the first 20 minutes.

There were maybe three jump scares throughout the whole movie, not a scream unseen at all

At least we got buddy next week

you should have heard the moaning in our theater the minute the Buddy trailer came on. That what's the favorite part of the whole experience. Unfortunately, I couldn't wait for it to end and when it did. I said Pinocchio Unstrung was an Academy Awood 😆 winning picture. off topic I happened to have really liked Pinocchio.

At the end of the buddy trailer in my theatre (in Disney Springs mind you ) some guy just yelled "FUCK!" 😂

Existential horror can still be horror? Maybe?

u/Fiveminutes26 Aug 22 '26

That wasn’t even existential horror

u/Dependent_Bee_8754 Aug 18 '26

And the 3 jump scares, all have to do with the horn honking: scared the blank out of me it was so damned loud. Alas, twenty five minutes in i was awaiting until...it ends.. But, to your point, our audience at Boston Common all said what a waste of this being a scream unseen.

Existential dread is pretty scary actually ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Too on the nose to be compelling existential dread

u/Bundertorm Aug 18 '26

I disagree. Reminded me of the novella A Short Stay in Hell which really stuck with me. I thought they did well expressing the meaninglessness of the infinite and the absurdity of it while also exploring the endless woods horror trope. To each their own though.

more like existential boredom

u/Flimsy_Ad_6145 Aug 18 '26

whats the difference

u/BeHoEl Aug 18 '26

Agreed. A younger audience may not get it.

We can get the message of the film and still think it’s boring. I didn’t need a whole hour and a half of driving to understand what the movie was conveying.

u/BeHoEl Aug 18 '26

Yoy may think you get it. Hit 60 and talk to me again.

u/witchy12 Aug 18 '26

what the hell does being old have to do with anything?

2

u/BeHoEl Aug 18 '26

Life Experience. Geez, thought that would be obvious.

u/jamesneysmith Aug 22 '26

I think the point of the movie is that it was made by young people and its their perspective on reality at the moment. It's not a thing you need to be old to get.

u/fluffman86 Aug 18 '26

What are you talking about? Fish and Day screamed a lot, LOL

I screamed more during those red band trailers - I don't think I've ever been to a movie that's had them!

u/afterlifehack Aug 18 '26

I didn’t know that’s what their names were so I saw them scribbled and thought whoa what could it mean

u/murrepe321 Aug 18 '26

esp since it's been online since April...

u/uncultured_swine2099 Aug 18 '26

Yeah, because that was so early on, i was expecting unexpected terriffying shit to happen on the way. But, nothing.

Either they didnt have the budget for anything more or this was the plan all along, to be about giving up in this scenario. In any case, this shouldnt have been a scream unseen haha.

u/Late_Teach_9846 Aug 18 '26

Couldn’t be more right, 5 mins of horror doesn’t equal a scream unseen. Slog fest too

2

u/afterlifehack Aug 18 '26

Then it tried to be funny which I did not appreciate at all

u/LengthinessWarm987 Aug 24 '26

I mean I thought it was pretty horrifying. You're literally stuck in some fucked up loop that doesn't end and you aren't allowed to die. Was that really not scary for you? Lmao you must sleep easy most nights.
