60 of 79 · most liked firstCompleted the Three Colours Trilogy and the Whistler series in time for this week's #LetterboxdFriday. Kieślowski has always been one of my many film blind spots and these films (plus The Double Life of Véronique) have been an excellent introduction. #LastFourWatched

unlabelledView post →After seeing the RLM video about the film Whistle, I'mm now seeing ads for an even shittier horror movie called "The Whistler". My mind is so brain-rotted I keep reading it as Northern Lion going a Rizzler bit like "Uh-Oh, it's the Whist-ler!"

unlabelledView post →Sure, it's not obvious that William Castle directed THE WHISTLER (1944), but there are signs...
unlabelledView post →The Whistler This is surely a horror movie as it doesn't do anything outstanding with it's horror and writing but yet isn't a pain to watch either. It's simply exists and you either like or dislike it and that's the most you will get out of it

unlabelledView post →I loved The Medium! The Whistler ended up being better then I expected. The poster made it look like it'd be a cheap & bad movie. Made me wish they made a better poster. My fav character was Petra, who isn't even the protagonist, and is a medium-like character.

unlabelledView post →Noir #3. Mysterious Inteuder. 1946. Stars Richard Dix. Didn't know this was part of 'The Whistler' series, wondering why the narrators voice was different from any of the cast. After doing research this is the fifth film. I enjoyed it. I think this is the third whistler film I have seen. #noirvember
unlabelledView post →With the orb weavers in top gear here, I've decided it's spooky season even though it's still 90º out. Thus, I started reading Nick Medina's "The Whistler." This would make a great (but extremely gruesome body horror) horror film.
unlabelledView post →There was a very convincing rumour that the much-delayed Blade movie was originally going to be set in London in the twenties and feature yer Statham as a member of the Whistler family.
unlabelledView post →This is two movies in a row (admittedly, both in the same B-movie noir series, The Whistler), where private citizens have been able to ask businesses about their records and the information is just handed over. Privacy ends where plot expedience begins.
unlabelledView post →Between this and the Whistler box set I finally understand the joke in Blazing Saddles that I never realised was a cowboy movie joke. “Fought bandits, fought rustlers, fought Dicks!” “You remember when Richard Dix came in and tried to take over this town” And he’s a great forgotten star

Mini-reviews include Saw 3 (2006), Final Destination 3 (2006), The Nice Ones (2026), The Whistler (2026), Chum (2025), and the short film Curbed (2025). Enjoy the journey!
unlabelledView post →The Whistler (2026) blends supernatural horror, family drama, and folklore into an engaging story driven by grief, guilt, and desperate choices. Its unique mythology, emotional conflicts, and atmospheric visuals create an intriguing experience, although inconsistent world-building weakens the tension toward the finale. Overall, it's a worthwhile horror film for viewers who enjoy folklore-inspired thrillers despite its narrative flaws. > by alunauwie
positive · AI labelView post →There was a film crew there for most of the Whistler→XP dev cycle. Tons of exec meetings, tons of war room meetings that would’ve needed to be carefully vetted and yes, some decisions in hindsight that probably seem wrong now but in that moment made sense. Lots of warts to reveal.

unlabelledView post →The Whistler (2026) - horror film review A couple visit the farmstead of the husband's family. There, the wife discovers an evil entity that haunts the fields. I loved the rural setting, made for an entertaining enough folk horror, though not perfect therottingzombie.blogspot.com/2026/05/the-...
unlabelledView post →Just saw this one. It was pretty cool. Weird Venezuelan folklore story I didn't know about. Diane Guerrero from Orange Is The New Black is great in this.
positive · AI labelView post →Long, lingering shots, long, drawling dialogue, bland, uncatching tension. This is a pretty movie, for sure. The visuals are gorgeous, but there is no substance, as the tension is simply missing, the characters (while not utterly unforgettable) replaceable, and the narrative halting. The casting is cheap, while not being bottom of the barrel by any stretch, and the directing pretty much on par with that. It is not worth your time, even if it is pretty.
neutral · AI labelView post →Just stumbled upon this movie flipping around new releases. A slow burn supernatural thriller that leans into atmosphere over cheap shocks. It's based on a Venezuelan legend like the BoogeyMan. Different than your typical genre entry. I totally forgot about Diane Guerrero from Orange Is The New Black but she's great in this. The Whistler is definitely worth a watch.

unlabelledView post →THE WHISTLER - Directed by William Castle, this is an adaptation of a major radio series from back in the day. In this installment, a man hires a hitman to kill him because he has nothing to live for, but circumstances change and he wants to call off the hit. Lots of twists and turns.
