"5nal Goes West" absolutely killed me. Also appreciated the dive into why this particular scene is so horrific-- and I had no idea the log bounce was CG.

To me this is the best kind of CGI—it enhances the storytelling rather than replacing it

The thing is, I haven't even seen the movie and this clip (maybe the trailer) fundamentally changed my relationship to the physical world LOL.

Most people haven’t seen the movie, but it made a hell of an impact!

I’ve only seen the third one in a theater and I spent the whole time with my hands over my eyes, peaking through my fingers. lol

The infamous log scene I watched on the break room TV when I worked at Best Buy, I didn’t even get to see the rest of the movie.

IMDb informs me, they are making a sixth installment, Tony Todd will be returning.

The third one is probably the splatteriest one. Which is surprising to say, considering a kid gets flattened by a giant pane of glass in the second one 🤣
