You should start watching Pakistani and Bollywood b-grade movies, best horror movies ever 😆

Lmfao. If you mean any movie that has Sunny Leone as the lead, then I’ve been there too. Some of my darkest moments. 😂

How are you making sense here? Judging people for having a preference in content that’s made for entertainment purposes? There’s a reason why subtitles are available and thank goodness for that. Who made it a rule that you should only watch movies/dramas or listen to music from your own culture and language? Nobody. Not a single law against it. Music is universal. You don’t have to understand the lyrics to enjoy it. I listen to lots of songs from different languages and have no idea what’s being said, but I like the sound of it and that’s enough for me.


There are lots of Non-Indians who are obsessed with Bollywood movies/songs despite not knowing the language or being a part of the culture. Are you going to tell them to stick to their own language or culture? Shouldn’t they get to enjoy and experience the beauty of Indian culture and cinema like everyone else?

I have met actual Koreans who dislike anything other than their own culture. They do not like people from other country. Anything outside their familarity is not welcomed.

Once you live in Korea you will face real racism. It's not all sugar and spice like k-pop and kdrama.

Sorry just saw this now. I’m at work but give me a few hours and I’ll send you a list of psychological horrors that I liked.

Sneaking a little comment in while I'm at work. 😆 Here's a few that I'd recommend. Some are more psychological thrillers rather than horror but definitely recommend these if you haven't watched.

  • Fractured (2019)
  • The Visit (2015)
  • The Gift (2015)
  • The Invitation (2016)
  • Hereditary (2018)
  • The Witch (2015)
  • Orphan (2009)
  • The Black Swan (2010)

I'm planning to watch 'The Lighthouse (2019)' because I've heard a lot about the movie. Initially I was a bit turned off because the movie is all in black and white, but coz the rating is so high, I think it may be worth the watch.

I've already seen Hereditary (liked it), The Witch (very atmospheric and chilly), Orphan (long time ago), Black Swan (eh ... more like psychological drama but still good). Have you seen Midsommar? It was too surreal, went over my head, need a rewatch to understand. Anyway thanks for the recommendation.

I watched Midsommar and what you pointed out is the exact reason why I didn’t recommend it. I felt like I was on some kind of drugs while watching the movie. It was too surreal for me and basically any film which requires me to go on youtube just to find an explanation is too complicated for my liking. 😅


You’re most welcome. 😊

Yeah people who mock others for watching Bollywood musicals and then go ahead and fawn over something like The Notebook.
