For example, I didn't even know Hell or High Water existed until the Oscar nominations were released that year. Same with movies like Whiplash or Brooklyn.


I saw Hell or High Water and Whiplash in theaters

I guess people are expecting these smaller budget movies to spend a ton of money so they can compete against the large blockbusters for commercial air time

Why do people bitch about this? Netflix, Hulu, Prime, etc all have these types of offerings. And ten years ago, these movies simply don’t get made or they get made with comically shitty production value.

Why complain? I don’t feel bad if I watch a shitty movie on Netflix. I do if I have to fork over $20

Which might explain why we are in a Golden Age of horror.


Every year I hear about two or three horror films that redefine the genre or are the next Exorcist. It sure as hell seems like you're right.

And they are not advertised, so the people making them don't care either.
