I also forgot to mention "Creature from Black Lake," "Schlock," and (one of my big big favorites) "Horror Express." The last one is one I can't recommend more, I could watch it over and over again.

Granted "Schlock" is a horror comedy but it does have some geniunely weird and disturbing moments.

Horror Express rules! A bit cheesy, but definatly a cool flick. Similar idea to The Thing, and Lee and Cushing are great as always. Plus, you can get it on DVD insanely cheap! Yep, I really agree with you here Filmmaker!

Yeah...yeah! Horror Express has a story that is ridiculous in certain ways, but it sticks to the story it sets up, and you have to pay attention to follow it.

I have a lot of respect for it because it's serious, but it has a strong sense of humor too!

Cushing and Lee are great as the heroes. They're both selfish, snooty jerks! But they save all those people at the end.

That's cool, that schlock movie looks stupid

And I think I forgot to mention another Jack Harris release, "Beware! The Blob," which is (like SCHLOCK) also a horror comedy from 1972. And oh my goodness, oh my goodness, I love that movie.

A slew of good choices...all great films...

And ya know, JAWS is still one scary motherfuckin' movie. Rated PG and just scary as hell. Still bothers me!

I got JAWS 2 a couple of months ago, and it's a standard sequel, inferior to the original, but still, not bad at all! Definitely has its scary qualities. Anything with a monster in the water works for me, though. I'm a sucker for water monster action. One of my favorite favorite parts in the original 1933 KING KONG is the thing in the swamp water that attacks the sailors...oh, God, it's horrible, HORRIBLE!

Ah YES@!

SQUIRM......

Great movie. A real 70's style, weirdo horror movie with bizarre effects, and the famous "egg cream" scene.
