Saw these first impressions and honestly was quite surprised of how good the comments are on this movie releasing next month. This alone just sold me on it now! Sorry it's a french website but just scroll down to the original english X (twitter) impressions in the page: https://www.ecranlarge.com/films/news/the-monkey-premiers-avis-horreur-oz-perkins

You can always count on Twitter first impressions. Not to mention this is a Stephen King adaptation and they always turn out great.

Stephen King does it again

 

[Trilobit]

I thought this was about the Robbie Williams biopic and was like "huh?"

 

[March Climber]

Stephen King and Theo James

This is the remake of a very old movie. I remember having seen it as a little kid and it scared me a lot.

Trailers looked great, and good talent behind it, not surprised.

OP stop being lazy and post the trailer

This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone. The director is superb when it comes to horror. The Blackcoat's Daughter was my movie of the year when it came out.

I don't typically watch trailers, but since people in this thread are asking for trailers:


100% worth a watch if you haven't seen it yet. Sooo good.

I'll stick to the King Kong ride at Islands of Adventure thank you very much. This film won't spray you with water.

I remember when this was going to be a Frank Darabont movie, it looks great, but I miss when Darabont would make movies.

 

[NecrosaroIII]

I thought this was related to Donkey Kong Returns

All his King Adaptations are

Is this like a comedy horror? The tone look all over the place.

Looks to be. Its based on a short story by King that I'm not familiar with but I'm always down for stuff like this. I'll wait for streaming as usual to be safe.

I would have watched it but now that I've seen the trailer I don't need to.

I doubt this would have been as good as those Smile movies anyway.
