Sounds a lot like Stephen King's 'Thinner'.


It really doesn't, at all. It's wayyyyy in the vein of Evil Dead and Army of Darkness.

Lake Placid 2 should also be mentioned. The acting and effects sucks so hard it cracked me up several times

just watched it right now... seriously.... this film is :



.... and generally, not very good at all. reading on imdb everyone is sayign this is a masterpiece, and an artistic gem.. maybe im just not artistic and cant pick up on the things this movie is trying to tell me, but to me, this was a very very very hard film to watch... the only reason i watched it until the end is because i just need some closure on it, i just need to find out what the frig this movie was about, i needed an explanation god dammit!........ there wasnt one

I watch David Lynch films more for the atmosphere and pure weirdness rather than for a comprehensible story.

The Exorcism of Emily Rose was PG-13 and I liked that a bunch. Was just as much horror as the original Exorcist was.

1408 was PG-13.

The original Poltergeist was PG.

//Willard was also PG-13, that's a surprisingly great one.

///The problem is not the movie though. It's the fact that we have this enormous society with thousands of years of quite visible culture to draw upon with a rich history of highs and lows; what we are most worried about is not the preservation of such a transmissive dynamic nor the undertaking of something real, something graphic, but the fact that our children may see too much of the world - our world - all at once. On one hand, who wouldn't be truly afraid? But on the other, just what are we so ashamed about? Etc.

////The Others was also PG-13.


1408 was OK. nothing spectacular. but almost all of SK's stories to films have been sub par (Misery and Secret Window were prolly the best).

I liked The Others. but i wouldn't call it a horror movie. more like just suspense/thriller.

lol@poltergeist. "whaaaaaaaaat's happeninggggggggggg?!?!?!?!?!?!"

Regarding Stephen King: I heard the movie right for the Dark Tower series were sold to J.J. Abrams and the Lost-guys. I don't really like the books that much, but I feel you could make a good movie out of them. I'll hope for the best and expect the worst...

Picked up �dishon, Lost Highway, and Eraserhead tonight.

As a kid I watched pretty much every horror/splatter movie that came along & read all the trade magazines. Nightmare on Elm St 1 & 2 were my favs. Creepshow 1 & 2 were pretty decent too I remember. Last movie that scared me (and I know many won't agree) was Blair Witch. I saw it right when it came out when all the hype was at its peak, and I couldn't walk into the woods at night for at least a year. As for just plain creepy, David Lynch takes the cake. Inland Empire, Lost Highway, Mulholland Drive, and many eps of Twin Peaks have an atmosphere that just haunted me long after watching.

For comedy, can't top Evil Dead 2.

Eraserhead is now the weirdest fucking movie I've ever seen.

But in some perverse way I think I liked watching it.
