Halloween. Along with part 2, still my favorite slasher (because thewy are the only ones i like...)

However, a couple of things that still bug me are Michael being able to pin someone to the wall with a 10" butcher knife (whgich would have about a quarter of an inch in the wall....) and picking up a nurse with the scalpel in part 2... Just a little to over the top for me.

The Omen 666

Not too bad, but I really missed the score from the original film.

the part they keep showing on tv with Julia Stiles falling from the banister makes me want to kick her in the face to get things moving....


call me prejudcied but i was never interested inthis one, i love the original too much. It just isnt worth it without david Warner, and no Gregory Peck. CMON!

What could beat Gregory Peck saying "Damien?"

They at least have the pane of glass liberating the photagrapher from his head, right?



Right....?

His head is loosed in a different and rather enjoyable manner - best shot in the film.

I liked the original as a kid, but it hasn't really held up for me, so I don't mind this take on it. It isn't as good, becasue there's no Gregory Peck or David Warner but it really is the music that I miss the most.

I watched F13 part VII the other day, I had seen it before but it's still fun to watch I guess, so cheesey! The I watched some kinda lame movie with Edward Furlong called Intermedio, right now on Sci-Fi it's like the 8 days of Halloween or something so they are playing tons of movies, Oh yea I was pissed cause Dawn of the Dead was on and I missed it!!
