Admin notice: We strongly encourage everyone joining use a VPN. Hextube now has added functionality that should anonymize everyone who join's IP but it's still a good idea to use one.
First up is Elvira's Haunted Hills. The setting is Carpathia. The year is 1851. When Elvira gets kicked out of an Inn for a slight monetary discrepancy, she is rescued by a local who takes her to stay at the castle in the hills high above the village. The fact that she happens to resemble the count’s former “missing” wife opens a can of worms or two.
Next up is Vamp (1986), in what is a clear inspiration for Tarantino's From Dusk Till Dawn, two fraternity pledges go to a sleazy bar in search of a stripper for their college friends, unaware it is occupied by vampires led by Grace Jones.

What is the explanation for the new VPN advisory? Is it just because of peertube?
I'm not sure, I was just told to include it in our movie posts from now on.
I would like further information from the admin. To my knowledge, a user IP won't be exposed to other users unless they click the "embed" button on peertube. Cytube gives every user a warning message before embedding the peertube player.
I think watching vimeo embeds won't expose a user IP to other users.
Everyone should always browse from behind a vpn
I disagree. VPN is a huge bottleneck on internet speed and latency. Also if you are relying on VPN for "privacy", you are just moving your trust from your ISP company to the VPN company. A VPN company could just as easily monitor your traffic as your ISP might.
The only real benefit of using a VPN is adding an additional layer between you and other peers in a p2p situation.
