NIGHTMARE CITY 1980


A TV reporter does his best to evade a mutant horde of zombies unleashed from a plane at the local airport. Weird mothers...

NEAR DARK (1988). My wife loves this and despite three views, just don't think it holds together with Adrian Pasdar's character irritating in the extreme. **

The Fog

LET SLEEPING CORPSES LIE 1974

Haven't enjoyed a film like I enjoyed this one for awhile. Just ticked all the boxes with the Hammer-like English countryside and villages and the handsome Bee-Gees look a like hero.

A piece of experimental farm equipment causes the dead to come back to life. Pretty cool zombies.

Wow, rude. ::stick out tongue::

"Weird mothers..."?!!!! Thought you were swearing there for a moment.... ::big grin::

The Plutonium Tiller?????

LET SLEEPING CORPSES LIE has an amazing soundtrack too.

"Shut yo' mouth!" ::big grin::

Yeah but you're an old soul ::love::


Heck yes it did. Actually, you mentioning Nightmare City led me to find it. I was watching N.C. on youtube and L.S.C.L showed up as a suggestion.

Awww! ::embarrassment::

THE DEVILS (1971). Quite controversial in its day and still hard hitting today. Lots of religious persecution, sexual obsession and nasty torture. However, it's a Ken Russell film so it goes over the top too often to be wholly successful. **1/2

Caligula. 1979.

I couldn't believe they made a mainstream film like that! I love 1970s films. Clockwork orange too. Films seem tamer now.

This country is PC-crazy! Films like Blazing Saddles would never be made today.

People are scared to say anything.

They Live (1988)

Just caught this for the first time, somehow it had always slipped through the cracks for me.

Super fun movie, can't believe I missed it for so long. Wouldn't say it's one of Carpenter's best, but still a really good time.

Beetlejuice

Watching this again I couldn't help but wonder why some of the characters (especially our two mains) made so many stupid decisions... But between story and kick ass visual effects, it's a classic Burton film that I loved as a kid and still do today. Not to mention 80s Alec Baldwin. ::love::

Also this man was my favorite Batman.

He really was the best one.

He is. ::love::

Adam West for me. But in film... the most surprising casting decision of the the 80's... Keaton did a fine job. Actually, I thought Ben Afflack does a good Batman, just not much script to work with.

Ikr? I remember thinking "Michael Keaton, ????" I pictured someone a little more menacing. I can't remember who but certainly not him...

I do wonder what the hell they were thinking... could a Hollywood casting director have actually suggested Micheal Keaton? Or did Keaton skip casting and call Burton and say, 'let me show you what I got'? Everyone was like, "Keaton?" But after seeing the film, the Batman fans I knew were like, ya, he was actually good.

Ya, who would have been a good Batman in the 80's?

Mel Gibson, Kurt Russell, Matt Dillon, Steven Seagal, Tom Cruise, Charlie Sheen, Richard Gere, Michael Douglas, Jeff Bridges?

THE HALLOWEEN THAT ALMOST WASNT 1979

Dracula along with Igor, Frankenstein , The Mummy and The Werewolf must convince The Witch to ride across the moon to save Halloween.

The Changeling, 1980. 9/10

Nope. Nope nope nope nope nope all of my nope.

Cat's Eye

I was intrigued by the cameos by Cujo and Christine, but I'm rapidly losing interest seeing some jackass shock the cat. Only still watching because I know it can't die since the movie follows it. And I'm hoping that guy get's what's coming to him. But instead we don't get an ending to that story at all.

Second story I'm completely lost at first, but that had a hilarious pay off.

The third story is made for movie, and is a bit obvious about it. Throws you off how the first two involve the evils of man and then the third has a supernatural element. Just why?

It was a decent flick though. Cat lovers will be happy with it.

Child's Play

https://media.tenor.com/images/2d52b...c599/tenor.gif

I thought I had seen this in its entirety at least once, but I went in with virgin eyes basically. By any means of good writing, it has many flaws. I would even say it's a bad film. But the traditional effects were stunning, and the characters memorable, so I can see how this became an easy classic. I quite enjoyed it in it's awfulness.

I also just saw it for the first time a few months back. As an overall horror film, I thought it was pretty average, but still solidly made, with effective doll effects. Story-wise, besides being pretty average, I'd want to call it cliche, even for it's time, but it's really a bit of a parody and social satire... which feeds on cliche. It was well received by critics and ticket sales. To just be plain about it, I didn't really like it, more a personal taste issue... mostly, its brand of crudeness doesn't hit my funny bone.

Possibly the most significant thing about Child's Play's initial success was the social environment at the time: which was the Cabbage Patch Kids hysteria -- with parents getting into fits fights to get the doll for their kid, and many cutesy toys hypes in the 80s. So it was a ripe era to make a cutie killer doll and trash the whole hysteria.

976-Evil (1989) 8/10

http://i.pinimg.com/originals/20/1c/...a5c0cf109e.jpg

Been a while since I've seen it. Lots of nostalgia, probably effected my score a little. A little slow moving, heavy on atmosphere, with a pretty good pay off in the end.
