Kudos to you for using that screenshot where that girl even managed to make eating an apple menacing.

I will need help from IMDB for my birth year so I don't miss anything important out.

1986:

Aliens

I've always liked collecting movies, I own all the halloween movies (except the rob zombie ones). I cant just buy Halloween 1 & 2, once I but 1 movie in the series I have to have them all, same goes with the friday the 13th, romero dead, freddy, and even james bond movies.

I get that. I collect movies too and if i have an incomplete series it just feels weird. I dont buy other movies for that sake though. I just deal with it.

I really enjoyed Halloween 3. I thought it was great fun. Not a masterpiece by any means, but really entertaining.

1983 really wasn't a great year, but it also had Videodrome, Christine, Sleepaway Camp, and Of Unknown Origin.

The Villain

08-07-2011, 03:58 PM

I think i compare it to the first Halloween too much which i shouldn't considering it had nothing to do with it. I'd probably be able to enjoy it if i could learn to separate it.

I think a lot of people do that which is why it gets clobbered as much as it does.

Someone here probably knows the story, but I remember hearing that John Carpenter originally intended to make the Halloween movies as stand alone, Halloween themed stories.

I agree that the 90s were a bit hit and miss but the rot hadn't set in then.
There was still The Woman In Black, Society, The Church, Tetsuo, Warlock, The Burbs and Santa Sangre that were great in 1989.

Last House on the Left was pretty good. I generally like revenge movies. I never saw the remake, so idk if that one is any good.

I still don't know if ANOES or Gremlins is better. I loved them both. I'm not really a fan of Toxic Avenger. Hated Children of the Corn and all the Friday the 13th movies. Silent Night, Deadly Night is pretty entertaining.
