I don't recall actually, but you've given me a great reason to watch it again very soon!

BLOOD NASTY 1989


A young man is double-crossed by his friend while robbing the grave of a mass murderer called "Blade". His dead body falls into Blade's grave and he is then brought back to life in a ridiculous series of events. Except now he is possessed by Blade. Cheese is the main ingredient in this recipe and that was alright by me.

Sunday night 80s double feature

Big Trouble in Little China

Creepshow

a couple of fun movies right there

Big Trouble had me laughing so hard!

I don't rememeber how many times I've watched Big Trouble. At least 10. I find it unlikely the remake will be at least tolerable.

Absolutely! Like both of them, especially BTILC..first time we saw it, was wondering if it was going to play serious or funny. Truly a film to watch a couple of times. Really funny and exciting, and for Kurt Russell fans, he is really top notch in here!
Although not a Horror film, USED CARS (1980) is one of the funniest films I can ever recall seeing...showed it to a group many years back. All loved it, especially "Rick" who was in literal red faced gulping hysterics.

The funniest movie I've ever seen is Brain Donors. Not a horror film.

Mad Max and The Road Warrior today. The hold up amazingly well, and Road Warrior shows that Tom Hardy was the best possible choice for Max in Fury Road

Can't wait till Christmas: 70s & 80s era
 

That's a wicked triple feature!

Watching Crater Lake Monster while I'm working. Sure, working.::big grin::

A Blade in the Dark (1983)

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...ark_poster.jpg

One of the classics. The italian directors in the 70s & 80s made brilliantly unique movies with rather low budget. Lamberto Bava of course known as the son of the great Mario Bava.
The movie builds a very thrilling atmosphere with simple means and with some true 80s gore scenes. (The blade through the hand -scene being the most impressive and a few more clumsy but loveable 80s style scenes). Music & acting is top notch for all factors considered. Especially the scenes with piano music.
The plot holds more than you first think.
Very solid movie and a must watch for italo-horror lovers.

Motel Hell

Meat's meat and man's gotta eat! ::smile::

Texas Chain Saw Massacre

I see why Repo'd likes this for background noise (if I remember correctly). Lots of lovely ambient horror sounds. Great screams and chainsaw noises are so nice.

Bothered by a few things that seem obviously silly. Trucker and survivor running out of the truck rather than staying in it and driving away being one... He couldn't get through the door so they were safer in the truck than running away. Speaking of why the hell did the trucker keep running rather than run to the safety of the car with the girl? And only one person is actually killed with the chainsaw, so the title shouldn't have surrounded it so much. It was rather disappointing.

Other than that though I can really see why so many consider it a classic. I would certainly add it to my list. The family was so fucked up and amusing, great plot twist that was. Effects and scenery were eerie and perfect. And I wish I could hire them to decorate my home. That furniture was absolutely fantastic. (may or may not already have bone wind chimes)

I do love the sound of TCM! True, I love everything about that movie but the sound design is one of the things that stands out. The scene with Sally pushing Franklin through the bramble in his wheelchair makes you feel like you are moving through the dark with them. It's brilliant. And then, the almost silent night is ripped apart by the sound of Leatherfaces roaring chainsaw..holy crap, I'm hyperventilating just thinking about it.

The furniture and sets were created by the amazing Robert Burns, who also worked on The Hills have Eyes, Tourist Trap, The Howling, Re-Animator and a slew of other stuff. He was an inspired artist. One of my prize possessions is an autographed photo of the gentleman, whom I was lucky enough to meet somewhere around 2001. That guy was great. RIP, MAN!

As for your RIDICULOUS concerns about what the driver did at the end of the movie...::big grin:: I'm kidding, of course. Yeah, it's natural to question the stupid things that people do. I do it in real life every day and I'm always baffled. However, I would allow for a certain amount of poor decision making when a person is faced with a possible death situation. I've seen people panic and do moronic things in stressful or dangerous moments. I think that when it comes to horror films, and the inevitable "why the hell would they do that?" question, I just say, "hey, they were scared". Knowing a little bit about human nature, I think that will suffice.

Glad you watched the flick, Roi! The Saw Is Family!!

Do you like this movie?

I don't love this movie, but yes I like it. I like Margot Kidder and James Brolin in the lead roles especially.

You give it thumbs up or down?

You watched them in reverse order?

Yes

Watching Evil Dead, on the 34th anniversary of its theatrical release.

"We're gonna get you. We're gonna get you!"

My favorite is "Will swallow your soul! Will swallow your soul!"

That's crazy.

ABSURD AKA ANTHROPOPHAGUS 2 1981

A beast of a man able to regenerate wounds almost instantly goes on a killing rampage in a tiny town. The only way to kill him is to destroy his brain. He winds up in a house with an invalid young girl and her little brother.

Inventive kills, good build up of suspense..pretty decent.

Halloween II

Watched 247°f last week ago.

PARENTS (1989). Brother showed me this a long time ago and liked checking it out again...he has great taste in horror flicks, but too bad I can't say the same for his music::big grin::! ***1/2

They Live (1988). Timely as ever.

Yeah, still very relevant. Not that anyone's paying attention.

The Wizard Of Gore (1970)

5 out of 10

HAMMER HOUSE OF MYSTERY AND SUSPENSE. CHILD'S PLAY 1984

These are lovely tales and run the length of a movie. A family awakes to find their house encased in steel and the temperature steadily rising. Also their daughter seems to be undergoing a disturbing personality change.
