Viruk Posted August 22, 2014 Report Share Posted August 22, 2014 Lots of great movies/videos have already been mentioned (Carnivale, The Backwater Gospel) and I was more than happy to discover that some were new to me. I particularly enjoyed Madame Tutli-Putli and I agree, this journey on a train is weird enough to be compared to what going through the breach might feel like. I definitely need to check Penny Dreadful out, haven't heard of that show before... I think this one hasn't been mentioned yet. Teddy's Nightmare. While it's technically not impressive and the animations feel a bit stiff, it does have a nice mood to it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ehren37 Posted August 23, 2014 Report Share Posted August 23, 2014 Both "Dead Birds" and "The Burrowers" are great western horror for something set in one of the mining towns outside the city proper. Dead Birds in particular for if a bunch of bank robbers holed up in a house with Pandora after a heist. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr_Unclean Posted August 27, 2014 Report Share Posted August 27, 2014 Not a great movie, but the fourth "Tremors" (the old west prequel) could easily be the story of a contract town in the badlands running into problems with Malifaux's unique wildlife. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noxus Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 Cool thread, should try and keep it alive. Vidocq was a good one, which has been mentioned. the animated movie 9 was pretty good, about puppets infused with souls who have to escape from living robots in a ruined city 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rekeiji Posted October 12, 2014 Report Share Posted October 12, 2014 The Guy Richie/Robert Downey Sherlock Holmes movies have a similar visual feel and Penny Dreadful practically IS Malifaux 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parker Barrows Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 EDIT: Many of the cartoons on this channel would be a good fit for Malifaux. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matney X Posted November 2, 2014 Report Share Posted November 2, 2014 I'm always surprised that Bunraku doesn't make it into these lists. Sure, it's more modern, but with the mix of Eastern and Western styles, it absolutely feels like Malifaux. After that, The Quick and the Dead: And The Book of Eli: 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadeton Posted November 3, 2014 Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 Wow, somehow I've managed to avoid ever seeing The Quick & The Dead. Gonna have to rectify that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linus Mcmold Posted November 3, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 3, 2014 I somehow visualized the Governor General when reading Malifaux stories as the Gene Hackman's role in Quick and the Dead. That movie is spot on. I just remembered an anime called Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust (yes a sequel) that has a very Malifauxy atmosphere and the look of architecture, scenery, monsters and even some characters. Its story is very trashy and forgettable and it would have been better if the main character wasn't such a Mary Sue type of character, but the animation and overall design is beyond perfect. Besides the sci-fi/gothic genre, the group of brothers (and especially their sister) from the movie reminds me of Viktorias band of mercenaries and the green lady in the trailer that fuses with a tree reminds me of Lilith. I must say I didn't enjoy Bunraku that much besides the Woody Harelsons role. It reminds me of the movie called Spirit and in a way the new Sin City in that that I didn't care for any of the characters because they were played too cool and too invulnerable and that feels too shallow. I guess that's the same reason I don't want to see Suckerpunch. Heh, the anime I mentioned above has similar problems, but it's more akin to Kill Bill in that respect because the characters are just too cool, but not invulnerable. There has to be some stakes to create suspense and enjoyment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

touchdown Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Ravenous is totally slept on horror/dark comedy set between the Mexican American war and civil war. That would fit right in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Oogie Boogie Posted October 21, 2021 Report Share Posted October 21, 2021 i just posted a thread asking if there are any fan animations, these have the feel of them but i think it would be nice to have actual fan made stuff like 40k has. i think it adds to the emersion foreveryone when fans make fan movies 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
