Connected to

Blue Ruin: 1 line career ×1

  1. career (career): Green Room → Blue Ruin. Green Room is Saulnier's mainstream-ish follow-up to the micro-budgeted Blue Ruin.
    “it's his follow-up, uh, to Blue Ruin, uh, which was this micro budgeted thriller”
    The Big Picture · The 10 Best Horror Movies of the Decade | The Big Picture · 0:29:42 · Chris Ryan (0.90 sure it was them)

Kill List: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (theme): Kill List → Green Room. Kill List has more in common with Green Room: a masterpiece that is more discomfort than horror.
    “Killist, I think, has more in common with green room.”
    The Big Picture · The 10 Best Horror Movies of the Decade | The Big Picture · 0:45:29 · unknown (Alexander or Karaszewski) (0.30 sure it was them)

Resident Evil: 1 line contrast ×1

  1. contrast (contrast): Resident Evil → Green Room. Without the comedy release valve it would be as upsetting as Green Room or Texas Chainsaw Massacre.
    “otherwise it's like you're watching Green Room. You're watching, you know, Texas Chainsaw Massacre.”
    The Big Picture · ‘Resident Evil’ Absolutely Rips! · 0:52:22 · Sean Fennessey (0.60 sure it was them)

The Invitation: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (theme): The Invitation → Green Room. Sean puts both on his runners-up list and says they belong in a separate category called terror.
    “I think that those 2 movies should almost be recategorized into what we might call terror.”
    The Big Picture · The 10 Best Horror Movies of the Decade | The Big Picture · 0:32:54 · Sean Fennessey (0.75 sure it was them)

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre: 1 line unmapped ×1

  1. unmapped (feels real): The Texas Chain Saw Massacre → Green Room. Chainsaw scares because the evil is not supernatural, unlike Jason, Freddy, Myers or The Exorcist; Blair Witch and Green Room are the modern realistic ones.
    “there's a bunch of movies that are scary, but this is, this scares me because it feels so real.”
    The Rewatchables · ‘The Texas Chain Saw Massacre’ With Bill Simmons and Chris Ryan · 1:04:22 · Craig Horlbeck (0.70 sure it was them)
