Even though Romero has proven himself to be extremely one note and blows serious chunks these days, he still made this movie. And no one could ever take that away from him.

the rest of the casting left much to be desired-- catherine deneuve as a factory worker? really? doesn't fit the type. a swede playing an american for wannabe boyfriend? come on. everybody had a fucking accent here, which takes away from the story. and i guess it's okay because the story is a fucking shameless manipulation.

also, all the talk of cronenberg got me rewatching this:






i'm watching this now, i thought bjork being czech wouldn't work but wow the american characters are generally even less believable. it's not important but i really can't buy that this is washington

I like how "Halloween 3" went from being that crappy movie that had nothing to do with Micheal Myers, to being that movie that was cool enough to do something different. Seems like its gotten a lot more appreciation over the years.

^ It deserves it. It's a beautiful, and very fun film. One of my all-time favorites. In a sense, I like it even more than the original - I've certainly had enough sigs/avatars dedicated to it on here to suggest that.

Just wait 'til the original 'Prom Night' starts getting noticed for its great cinematography. Then all hell will truly break loose.

The original Prom Night movies are great, III being my favourite.

I love 3. Not as much as 1, but 3 has a special feeling to me. It's one I remember watching ON Halloween when I was very young.

the first three halloween films are all really great to me, and 4 is pretty awesome as well

I've just watched this :

 

(cut version)
better than the first one, more "beautiful" (if I can say so...) probably thanx to the black and white photography.

Then, to forget all those awful scenes, I' ve watched this one :
 

cool! not the best film by Gondry, but still enjoyable!

!@#$%! 11.06.2011 12:57 PM

this thing:

 


it starts pretty great, suprisingly, with a kind of 5th-element creature as the main character, and it evolves well, but motherfucker, do the writers really fuck up the plot and the believability in the characters when they make a trained hunter and killer run like a stupid rabbit. at least jason bourne had an army behind him and could justify (at first, at least) not to hunt his hunters. rifunckingdonculous. death be to the last 30 or so minutes of this movie.

the cinematography was beautiful, some gorgeous greys in the winter scenes, and some cold would-be denmark/germany, but really, mother fucking really, why did they have to turn the main characters into complete fucking imbeciles for no particular reason?

i am still mad because they actually made me care.

t t the last movie you watched
 
Its a good story. Im fiding it interesting and slightly scary.But the grammar isnt all that great. you need to make sure your is are capital letters. even if i did know the i should of been I. Also you need to add but your using , for but it is still a good story, but I dont know why you changed your writing style. It went from script to story. Also avoid the word yh. Plus, why would she give out her details on a radio station? Every child is taught not to do thta. She wasnt even asked

Dead Alive 11/10
Altered States 9/10 (such an underrated film imo)

I don't understand what's not great about Halloween.

Dead Alive is great fun.

Altered States is SUCH AN OVERRATED FILM IMO

Friday the 13th rules.

i found it pretty mediocre, it was quite successful at being really sad and disturbing, but the music and dialogue etc. was really bad.

sleeping fist: 6/10
buck and the preacher: 8/10
north to alaska: 6/10

Martin (the main character) is really fucked up, and he is extremely violent. Plus, he's not a surgeon... his surgical materials are hammers, saws, stapler, etc...
The first one was more like a joke compared to this one...
