Wow - I can't believe I've waited so long to see this movie... The claymation monsters are AWESOME.

Also - If I had seen it when I was younger I probably would have found it pretty scary (or at least enjoyed it as much as I did stuff like Little Monsters).

ALSO: The scene where the demon reaches out from under the bed and grabs her foot... I TOTALLY saw that seen when I was younger - just that scene and for a while I would run quickly when I was in front of beds and couches so that a hand wouldn't grab me... I've always wondered what movie that was from. Huh.

Did you like it? Trick or Treat was pretty cool too for the whole heavy metal 80s horror flick.

I thoroughly enjoyed it! Can't believe that I waited so long to watch it. Based on the fact that it's an inside joke around here, I was expecting the movie to be simply awful, but it was a blast - I LOVED the claymation demons and the special effects. DEFINITELY cheesy, but that was part of the charm. Plus it was more gory than I expected, especially since our heroes are kids. If I had seen it when I was younger, it definitely would have scared me. I would watch it again and recommend to people... Is this the Trick or Treat that you're talking about? I'll have to check it out.

I saw Marcus Nispel's Frankenstein on there. Good visuals, but dull pace.

They have some pretty good stuff On Demand right now...

• [rec] (2007) (though - baha - the description says "from the people who brought you Quarantine") - It's the Spanish infection film that everyone's been talking about!
• May (2002) - One of my favorite indie horror flicks ever. Fantastic character piece. Tortured and awesome.
• Ju-On (The Grudge) (2002) - The iconic Japanese original
• The Cottage (2008) - From the makers of Severance, here is another British horror comedy, but definitely more subtle and favored more by people around here - I liked it and will most likely be checking it out
• Jaws, Jaws II, and Jaws III - They really need no introduction
• Abre Los Ojos (Open Your Eyes) (1997) - The Spanish original that inspired the insipid Vanilla Sky with Tom Cruise... Definitely quite a bit better, though if I recall the plot rambles a bit and the "point" loses a bit of its intended punch
• The Sixth Sense (1999)

And even three of my Horrorfest Faves (all of which I've recommended here before)

• Borderland (2007) - Slasher/thriller
• Crazy Eights (2006) - Session 9 meets The Grudge
• Mulberry Street (2006) - Pretty damn good low budget infection flick.

I thought Dead Set was really good. Nice to see it getting screened in a few more places I was thinking it was just going to disappear.

Damn! I bought the dvd months ago & put it on a box with some other dvds and still haven't seen it! Thanks for the reminder, definitely going to watch it this weekend for sure.
