I liked Club Dread. Pretty random and funny. And Bubba Ho Tep kicks fucking ass..

The Returner - Japanese sci fi action

Was that (returner) any good?
The trailer looked awesome...

Salem's Lot- original

Really entertaining and expertly crafted slice of Japanese sci-fi/gun play action film making.
Some excellent characters, some great FX (including some marvellous CGI renditions of apocalyptic destroyed cities with alien ships and huge transformer robots roaming the ruins), some great, violent action, a solid cybertech/Industrial soundtrack and a nice streak of gentle humour.

it's not half bad really ..

a bit like Terminator ... without the Robots.

Prince of Darkness. I didn't like it.....can't help it. It was too slow for the first part and lost my interest. Then when it did start to get good I was lost.

I'll stick with Halloween and The Fog for Carpenter flicks.

last movie i saw was Nightmare before Christmas for the 12th time. Tim Burton is d best there is....

Tenebre, last night and I am going to watch Vamps 2, Blood Sisters and Fade to Black. We got over 3" of snow last night, so I might head out and rent a couple I don't have for tonight.

That's being mild. "Prince" is a crap heap. Moronic in the extreme. AWFUL humour dilutes even the smallest chance this cheap looking silly film had of being even slightly good.

The Devil is a stupid splodge in a jar, and then a girl with strawberry jam on her face, the scary satanic helpers are nothing but a bunch of tramps led by the suitably crap as always Alice Cooper and in suitably dumbed down fashion all the horror has to be made a joke of (the scene with the annoying Chinese guy making bad one liners while trapped in the closet is so dreadful Carpenter should have never been allowed on a film set again - which given the other crap he's done since would have been a good thing)...resulting in a true turkey!

The unbroken line of crap and below average movies since this low point shows that Carpenter should have retired years ago and done us and his legacy a big favour.

Tenebre - Now THAT is more like it. True horror class and perhaps Argento's best film.
