I haven't seen his version of Halloween, though I have heard it is done in the same style as his two previous films so I am sure I will love it. I was not a big fan of the original

Can you see the video I posted?

Honestly I have not seen the original in a heck of a long time, but the simple slasher flicks just don't do it for me. I really like colorful, eccentric killers and dark humor thrown in (can't recall if the original had any dark humor actually, but i kind of doubt it, that was not popular back then).

Another fun flick…Reanimator. Harder to find because of the NC17 rating, but lots of gore, dark humor, and some sexual content (including a memorable scene with the severed head and beautiful blonde).

Yeah, great scene. Also something you would never seen in modern American horror flicks, things are much more pc today. Female on female violence is okay, but something that graphic by a male hand would never fly. : )

Reminiscent of the Psycho shower scene. They were pretty blatant about the violence and symbolism back then. (adding videos is so much fun! lol until we get yelled at by the mods : )

Back to butt in
I love the old horror films like Psycho. Maby of them were masterly shot, although sometimes a little too, suggesting.
I'm still missing that streak of blood on the wall as she slides down, hehe.

But it's the old classics that really inspire me. I did this self-portrait some weeks ago. Was bored one late night and thought "ah heck"...

LOL...well i thought maybe Rob changed the character a bit. Yeah see he was wearing a mask the whole time, he was dirty, he was NOT talking, plus he did not have any sex appeal or personality at all. It just did not do it for me. Somehow I was expecting something much different. : (

Carpenter's 'The Thing' is great. If you haven't seen it, the original is worth checking out too.
I love horror movies made in the 50's. A kinder, gentler horror with a little politics thrown in at times

Well Crackeur may have just been a kid when he saw it. Plus some people find the movies with demonic themes to be ultra creepy.

I just found THE MOVIE that traumatized me as a child. LOL. Haven't seen it since i was like 10, and if i recall i only saw half of it cause my mom made me go to bed at 10:00.

I thought it was an obscure movie cause I never heard it talked about. Its called "Don't Be Afraid of the Dark" and is about this woman that movies into a creepy old house. She opens up the fireplace and the next thing you know these short little shriveled demon things start whispering to her, calling her name, sneaking around etc... It was produced by ABC so maybe that is why it is not so well known.

My god that movie scared me so bad. I was terrified of the dark for like 2 years after that. Funny thing is I found the whole film on youtube and in the comments tons of people are saying the same thing! Many are saying that movie scared the holy s#^% out of them when they were kids. LOL.

If anyone watches it the youtube format really reduces the tension, at least watch it in a dark room and put it on full screen. Even now the acting and plot really is pretty good.

From the 70's...whole thing is here:
