Not bad. Not quite on par with the 3 prior entries, but close.

Tol'ja again. ;)

You'll think 5 is ok, and you'll love 6. 6 may be your favorite, actually. It reallys is that good.

a whacko kid taking himself too seriously (only to be right in the end)
he was trying toi sound serious and mature (the character i mean)

i'll be willing to bet this is the way he was directed to be

Ya' know, I never thought of it that way, Urge. I need to watch this again with re-opened eyes.

Of course I love the movie itself every time, though.

Depending on when I wake up tomorrow morning, Im planning to check out both of those tomorrow.

Jeepers Creepers

I have always liked this one because it just feels a lot more original than most horror films I see. An original villain, unique storyline (albeit a little stupid at parts), and even some pretty fresh directing approaches and camera shots. The gore isn't too extreme or bloody, but it is fairly abundant. The ending is also pretty unexpected. I enjoy this film quite a bit. Highly entertaining, well acted and just plain cool.

Dracula 2000

Another perpetual favorite of mine... I love this modern day take on the Dracula legend and am not really sure why this film gets such a bad wrap. Yes, it is a hip young Hollywood cast, but the acting is fine and the gore is abundant. Wes Craven has put together one of my favorite vampire movies of all time here because this is how I have always envisioned Dracula should be portrayed... A ruthless, soulless cold-blood butcher. Not some lovey dovey pansy... He's based on Vlad the Impaler for crying out loud!!!! Anyways, this movie kicks ass. Good acting, good gore, GREAT new twist on the Dracula legend, good directing, excellent entertainment value. I don't see why more people don't love it.

A-

Just watched House of 1000 Corpses.
Ain't great, but it's not terrible.

The Lost boys was on tv and I was watching some of that.

I think I am going to watch The Machinist starring Christian Bale since he is a phenomenal actor.

Had me laughing from time to time.

Especially the Saw intro with Dr. Phil and the Tom-Cruice-makes-an-ass-out-of-himself-in-Oprah ending made me laugh out loud.

Might be the worst in the series, but I still enjoyed it.

Worst in the series? It might be one of the best in my opinion. I'd probably rank it right behind the first one. They finally ditched the Wayans brothers.

I laughed my ass off at the terrorist bit during the War of the Worlds. "Death to America! Oh... shit."

The Last House On The Left.

I'm with BW22 on this one...I think it's the best aside from the first one, which I personally think was leagues ahead of them all.
The second and third were the ones not worth shit, IMO.

see I don't agree at all.

I loved Scary Movie 2 with Hansen. "I'll give you my strong hand!" and the whole bit where he is fucking the turkey is priceless.

My rating for the Scary Movies go just like they were released....

1-4

The fourth installment sucked hard IMHO.
