It's that wonderful time of year again! Time to heat up some cider, carve a couple pumpkins, go to a few haunted houses/hay rides and just enjoy life.

Anyway, since this is the month of horror, I was just curious to see what everyone's gonna be watching. I was thinking about picking up the Nightmare On Elm Street box set and Lion Gate's Pot of Gore to hold me over. If I can't find one or the other though, I have no problem throwing on the Sleepaway Camp Survival Kit or Halloween 1-6 for about the 250th time. :drool_2:

30 more days to Halloween, Halloween, Halloween. 30 more days to Halloween, Silver Shamrock!

So Earthquake? Do you actually like Halloween 3?

Cause I do- I think it's very underrated and it's pissed me off for years that people don't get what it's about.

I think Halloween 3 is the second best Halloween movie in the series- the original being one of the 4 or 5 best horror films of all time after all.

I actually started me Halloween season movie watching last night- with Tim Burton's somewhat suck-ass 'Sleepy Hollow'. Just to get me in the mood and all. This film is where Burton really started to lose it. But it looks and feels good. (God how I hate him now)

Tonight is House of 1000 Corpses

Further on this and next week I will be watching also:

Suspiria
Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2
The Fog
Ernest Scared Stupid
The Addam's Family
Warlock
The Howling
Pumpkinhead
Hellraiser 2
Deep Red
Young Frankenstein
C.H.U.D.

And I think I'm going to seek out some of the new stuff this year too.

Really?

I know a moderate amount about horror movies and I thought it was quite decent, almost certainly well worth adding to any horror fans collection.

I don't like part 3 one bit...........I love it! ;)

Definitely one of the most underrated horror flicks I've ever seen. It's a shame that people trash it just because it bears the Halloween name, but doesn't include Myers. The acting is decent (Tom Atkins did a great job) and the atmosphere is incredible. It almost makes you want to go out trick-or-treating when it's over. It has an excellent "the bad guy wins and there's nothing you can do about it" type ending like The Fog.

I'm about to pop in H6 in a few minutes which IMHO, is the most underrated slasher film I've ever seen. Hardcore horror fans run this one into the ground because it introduced the "thorn" aspect into the franchise. I love it though as it digs deep into Michael's history and empties out everything a Halloween fan could ever want to know about the legend. I guess most fans don't like their slashers with story lines though. :oh_no:

Alien Directors Cut in theatres on Halloween is a nice touch.

Just saw Cabin Fever and well, it was ok I think aside from the fact I have no clue what the hell I witnessed. EXTREMELY messed up flick, but the chick was hot and has the exact same birthday and same year as me :emb:

i rotate all my horror fliks and watch them at least once

but i think i ll be buying some films i ve been neglecting
like the omen trilogy and if i ever have cash the nightmare collection
but probably it ll be a exorcist halloween for me again this year.
sans the exorcist 2 of course.
guess i ll just have to substitute suspiria in there instead.

I just watched that commercial for Texas Chainsaw Massacre again...Damn that movie gives me the Creeps..

Check it out EarthQuake..This is 1 of 5 masks my friend Ron has.
This one was custom made from a William Shatner mask..
It's not his best one....We did a small home video for the big Halloween show coming up in Cali..
Whereas Myers killed me while I was playing the Cab..

It came out really good.
It's supposed to be shown on the website..soon.

I need to find the link to the website again.

Ok.

I love Halloween. (both the movie franchise and the day/night)

As I said in an early September post, that time of the year where the days grow short, and the nights grow long. (Keen Halloween fans will know that quote came from Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers)

In fact, tomorrow in my Story Drama class, I will share with my classmates my 1994 Halloween adventure. (I was 11, we went to a "neighborhood haunted house" free of charge, it was the coolest thing ever, and I also snatched back my best friend's bag after some bag-snatching bully snatched it and ran off -- I chased his ass down in the mist of the night... it was pure adrenaline and my instincts took over... quite an awesome out-of-body experience, and the kid was twice as big as I was!)

Earthquake and NeoBuyer,

Yeah, I used to hate H III. But recently it came on TV and I watched it again. Somehow I like it a lot more now. Last time I saw it I was 10, so yeah, I was expecting to see Michael.

Now that I'm 20, I appreciate things like plot and acting more, and H III is a lot better than what I gave credit for 10 years ago.

That Silver Shamrock jingle is GREAT! I also love how they had a Michael Myers cameo! Very clever!

You know what's funny? That Halloween post I made in early September, (9-7-03) I made it RIGHT AFTER I watched Halloween III on the Sci-Fi channel. As I was watching it, the skies suddenly darkened and wow the atmosphere was unbeatable!
I had also just won that big Saturn magazine lot the previous night so life was just about DARN PERFECT right there and then!

:)

NeoBuyer, don't forget to watch Mr. Vampire!
I'm actually awaiting Mr. Vampire III and IV DVD in the mail today. My bro bought them from a website. It'll be my first time watching the sequels. I skipped 2 cuz all I hear bout it is that it stinks the big one.

About time someone gave this movie props. Best scary movie EVER! I've already seen this movie a billion times, and I have the DVD so I know all the cut scenes, but it will be cool to see this in the theatres AND with the cut scenes left in.

I'll tell you one horror movie I'm NOT looking forward to:

House of the Dead

After seeing the insanely stupid tralier (complete with RAP MUSIC SCORE) I'm convinced the only way they could make this movie good was if they distributed light guns to the audience so they could skip through the crappy story and get straight to the action.

I'd almost prefer a 'Typing of the Dead' movie to this garbage..


GAAAHHHHH! HOUSE OF THE DEAD FLASHBACK MOMENT!!!


I see my advice had no effect.

Suffer like 'G' did?

LOL! What's this, a newbie that doesn't suck? Yeah, I can see a movie where guys have DCs on their back and are typing zombies into oblivion!

That House of the Dead movie... good god does that look shitty.

I haven't seen you post since the big move chris. I was starting to worry about you for a while there bro. ;)

Anyway, that mask looks excellent and is almost identical to the one used in part 2. I can't wait to see the video!

Me and a friend had this elaborate scheme cooked up for Halloween.

He'd go as James, with his dreamcast strapped to his back with a painted paper towel roll on top of it (to simulate the battery) and carry the keyboard in front of him.

I'd paint myself all pale with dark circles under my eyes and grimy, dirty clothes (i.e. typical zombie). The catch is, I'd have a piece of cardboad around my neck (we'd use fishing line so you couldn't make it out) and have one of those wacky phrases painted on it with a blue background, reddish border, etc. (Back when we were in the planning stages we were stuck between "Eggybread" and "Velvet Painter")

The idea fell through after he got Last Blade 2: Final Edition..Now he treats his DC like a mewing infant and won't even let me touch it without gloves and a mask..

Damn, that would have made some killer fucking cosplay.
