Ooo! The Abdominal Snowman! That takes a lot of guts!

LOL! Anyone see my theme yet?

Hmm. Movies starring Peter Cushing that came out in 1957?? ::wink::

Martha, I love Kingdom of the Spiders! Wicked and very unexpected pick.

Oh I just love Kingdom Of The Spiders.

Those creepy, crawly, hairy things!

Eeek!

Oh My!

Spiders AND Shatner! A winning combo.

Me too! I liked it so much I brought it to our 70's list for HDC 100 Years of Horror. Especially loved the shot of the whole town covered in webs.

I'd have to guess same as, Repo ::big grin::


My theme is kind of 2 themes. ::smile::

Movies that begin with "The" and end with the letter "n"?::EEK!::

Sequels and... 80s movies?

First part, yes (or more specifically 'Sequels that didn't suck). The second however, the next two (and maybe the third, idk, haven't thought that far ahead yet) are made after 2000.

Jason Goes To Hell was made in the early 90s though.

It is your turn now by the way Roi

That's random. I picked Jason Takes Manhattan.

Well, you know what they say, 'if you can make it in Manhattan...

Roi, you have somehow managed to pick my least favorite Friday 13th film AND my least favorite Halloween film.::big grin::

Can't wait to see what you pick next, amiga!

I love Jason Takes Manhattan, but Resurrection had no point whatsoever.

I like sequels no one else seems too. Anyone getting the theme yet? ::big grin::

I just had an epiphany. John Hough, Howling IV director is the same John Hough who directed Legend of Hell House, and Dirty Mary Crazy Larry. Love those movies, so now I'm even more primed to watch the flick.

I really don't know how my mind can miss shit like this. John F'n Hough.

- Howling IV: The Original Nightmare (1988) John Hough
- Friday the 13th Part VIII: Jason Takes Manhattan (1989) Rob Hedden
- Halloween: Resurrection (2002) Rick Rosenthal

The last 2 are "part 8". Not too many of those.

Is the theme Sequels?

WAIT WHAT. Legend of Hell House is one of the movies you gave me! I KNOW WHICH VHS I'M WATCHING NEXT! 8D

Oh hey you're watching Howling IV tomorrow aren't ya. Really looking forward to that verdict! i hope it's a good one ::smile::

Sequels is part of the theme, yes. It's actually one of two. I'm difficult, I'm sorry. ^^;

I'm clueless about that second theme. Nothing is jumping out at me. I'm not working with a theme, just picking movies I think everyone should love.

Not only am I watching Howling IV today, I'm about to watch it right NOW!
I was looking forward to it prior to the Hough realization, but now I'm amped up to see this sucka.

Watched and enjoyed Howling IV! First things first. The hair and the clothes!! Hahaha! Oh MY. Okay, got that out of the way.

I'll start with the negatives.
It may have just been the version I watched online, but the dialogue seemed 99 percent dubbed, and it was sloppily done. That annoyed me. The biggest negative for me was the performance by Michael T. Weiss as Richard, husband of Marie. Wooden and comatose are not moody and smoldering. Someone should tell Mr. Weiss that.
Also, the music? Ugh.

The positives.
Very nice work by the lead, Romy Windsor, Her character, along with most of the side characters, was believable and I felt pretty shitty for her, considering all she had to endure. The direction was a bit uneven, which, though I love a few of Hough's films, isnt a massive surprise when taking into account his entire body of work. Still, it was not unimpressive at times.
On to the big transformation sequence. INSANE! It looked painful, like some awful oozy rebirth, It had me scrambling to see who did the FX. Loved it, and if this title comes up in conversation, that scene will be the first thing I think of. I thought the Lycan design was unique, especially the appearance and shape of the head and face.

I'd say overall, it was a fun morning watch! I can understand any uber-wolfie fan having a soft spot for this film. Thanks for the rec, Roi.

Re: Michael T. Weiss - you notice he hasn't done any acting for a very long time? He may be easy on the eyes, but he's a terrible actor!

Please update my 3rd entry.

I already did rosh. I just got on a few minutes ago...

Yeah, Hammer, he's dreadful. He was so bad it started to be fun to watch him.

Martha, I asked hammer to delete your post in the draft thread. You PMed me and asked when you could make up this round and I said after round 10 and you even said ok. This game is really not hard to follow.

ok hammer you're up to the plate.

Done

Yeah I posted that in the rules. Don't worry Woodsy darling, I think this will be a regular thing here and everyone will get the hang of it eventually.

.....................

Roiffalo, you're up

What's up, peeps? Who's turn is it?

Mine! I'm kidding. You were right, it's Roi.

Martha's turn

Draft well, Grandmother of Horror!

Repo you are up!

Remember, you pick twice

I'm sorry to spam but omfg, morning. I'm listening to 'Ruby' and scrolling through the topic, and when it got to the chorus I get to your sig with the Kool-Aid man jumping out and I don't know why but I can't stop laughing. ::big grin::
