Yes, that was me! The ending was definitely cheesy, but so worth the rest of the movie.

Fearonsarms 01-22-2013 12:43 PM

Thanks for that :) yeah the ending didn't ruin it, I just thought it was a bit silly. Rest of it was great though :)

Leviathan is definitely worth watching for one of the best comeback lines in movie history by the Ghostbuster.

Prom Night (1980)

http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedi...ilm_poster.jpg

I thought this was my first watch, as I sat to watch, I don't if the trailer that showed most of the movie or not, I Felt that already seen this movie before.

So that makes think, if I have already seem this movie before, Why did I forget that I have seen this movie?

So I gave it other watch, I liked how the movie started of the prank going wrong, it was bit silly now and it dose look a out dated now.

I found the whole movie very boring and those scenes drag way to long and all the actors were way to old for playing teens as then looks early 30's

I didn't like any of the death scene in this movie, they were not gory or that good, I didn't find the killer scary or creepy at all, I knew who the killer was from the start , very predicable

Good acting for really dull slasher movie

I going to give 4 out of 10

Hello Mary Lou: Prom Night II (1987)

http://images.moviepostershop.com/he...1010204654.jpg

This as got nothing to do with the first movie as that good think as I thought the first movie was really poor with some decent actors.

This movie is about Mary Lou is ends get killed in fire as she became queen prime.

30 years Have People who saw Mary lou died . will repay with their lives .

Vicki who going on with Son of the principle who was one set fire to Mary Lou.

Vicki soon start act stranger then normal and people notice and soon we know that Mary Lou as possessed her.

I love this movie as I love the start of the movie ,I found first ten minutes of this movie better then the whole of the first movie.

This movie we have actors who playing there own age and love of of the weird scenes in this movie.

I love hoarse scene was very cheesy and I lot more fun then first movie and love the ending of the movie.

The ending was perfect, it fitted really well with rest of the movie

I started watching bits this DVD I got for my BDAY (CHarley Says):

http://classicmoviestore.co.uk/image...leysaysdvd.jpg

I love this shit..Its a collection of British Public Information Films from the 70's. Some great stuff on starring now dead celeb pedos, the guy who played Darth Vader among others.
Anyone else traumatized by this as a child (you prolly need to be from Ireland/UK and over 40):



Also saw this:

Curse of the Black Widow:
Very Cheesey but enjoyable TV movie directed by Dan Cutis (of Dark Shadows fame) - it reminded me a lot of a Kolchak episode (which of course Curtis was involved with)..

Bigfoot: The Lost Coast Tapes (2012)

My fave Bigfoot movie is Night Of The Demon (1980). It's a cheap and cheerful gorefest. Check out the trailer here:-

That's the same length as the UK cut release which is why I didn't post it. The full uncut version is 97 minutes but it looks like only one scene has been trimmed there.

Not sure, it was a while ago. I barely remember seeing two versions and they seemed the same. Maybe one was part 2. I think I noted somewhere to watch an extra feature on The Grudge (remake) DVD. That might be The Curse. Not sure.

This is great. I can't believe a government released a video like this. I remember having a thing for crossing frozen lakes/ponds. Back in the day, there was a swing/slide park. I don't think they have these anymore. This was when no one wore helmets riding bicycles, skiing, etc. Anyway, I crossed the lake during winter to get to this park that had a massive three maybe five floor slide. Unattended! I think the park people didn't know their park that well. They thought one closed gate meant no access. They didn't think kids would cross a frozen lake. It was great.

Also, another time I jumped a rail and warning sign to get to a frozen waterfall! Crazy and foolish stuff.

Cool thanks, I got something to watch at work, My Work Till as internet :)

Talking about movies on youtube

Yesterday I Saw The First Power (1990)

A killer is given the gas chamber after committing several demonic murders. His spirit is released and given power by the Devil. Now the cop that caught him before must find a way to do it ..

This was more of Thriller then horror movie but saying there were some strange things that happened in this movie.

I thought this movie was full of some really good actions scenes, some really strange fights scenes in this movie.

Those back flips were good however

after a bit a felt the story could have ended to sooner then it did, the last half of the movie felt like it lost something,

I liked the start of the movie, it was like edge of the seat stuff, the movies loses that in second half.

The ending was could have been much better then it was, I found it a bit of a cop out in the end.

Not sure what to rate at the moment.


Ghoulies (1985)

This movie came on late last night.

I knew the movie was going to be bad but well it was really bad but what Did not like
it was never really about Ghoulies at all , it more about person who gets the power

We do get these see Ghoulies , all different from one and other but there don't really attack anyone until about the Hour mark.

The attack scenes were a little tame and effects were not too bad but watchable in this movie

I did not like the plot of the movie went at all, I wanted more of Ghoulies but it all about the person who had the power.

I expecting something bad and that what I got!

You would probably prefer Ghoulies 2 there's a lot more of the ghoulies in it. Not too keen on the first film myself. I love in Ghoulies 2 the way the crowd are cheering and encouraging the ghoulies as they are torturing people, cracks me up :D. Check it out.

Cool, Might give that go, when I am not sober :p,

The Night of the Demon (1980)

I did not get to see all the movie as I kept on , getting distracted by my family members coming and going and asking for me to something.

I loved the start of the movie, feel liked the first kill in the movie and how they way victim blood fliled the big foot print was really clever,

There were some very funny deaths scenes in this that maybe me laugh out loud, some of the scenes do look a little out dated now.

The acting was not great but more then watch -able , so in last 40 mins of the movie, I had pause a least 6 times, (I just could get into the movie afterwards)

(Not Rated)

The Haunting in Connecticut (2009)

I decided to Re-watch this movie, (before seeing the sequel) back then I wasn't to keen as I saw the The Haunting in Connecticut (2002) Doc two days before seeing the movie.

In that guy in basement scene, Freaked me out, I had to sleep the light of seeing that Documenty.

Now that seen this movie again, my feeling for this have not change at all, I did not find anything that really stood out in the movie at all.

The felt the same as any other Haunted house movie but this movie never really had the the creepy feel in the movie at all.

There was only one scenes that I feel though was some-what creepy, when the Boy was hiding (I not sure what think he was hiding in ) The shadow was right be hide the boy.

The rest of the movie scare scenes felt a little forced at times and Didn't really like how the plot came to end.

The angry dad was little over the top and no needed at all also I did like some of those flashback scenes were nice fit to the movie.

The acting was very good from the whole cast, some of effect was decent in the movie.

Saw this few days agO

After Midnight (1989)

Fun teacher, making Person Wet him self in glass lol, the teacher invites some Collage Kids to house after Midnight for some very scary stories.

There were decent movies, nothing really stood in those story, I did like the first story and found a little funny.

The second story. I didn't really like. I felt sorry for those dogs,

I already forgot what the 3rd story was!,

I hated the way the movie ended as really just started all over again.

I hate those ending

I give 5 out of 10

I can not believe I didn't not post it's already on the Weekend

I saw Monkey Shines (1988)

I don't what I expected but I this was not as good as hope for,

I enjoyed some parts of the movie, most of the time, i was rooting for The Monkey anyway,

I didn't like the Allen at all, I didn't really care for me at all, I did not really sorry for me at all.

One hell of nasty person, I know it's was be really hard just blow all time but there was no need of him being a ass to everyone who was to help him

6 out of 10

Don't Be Afraid of the Dark (TV 1973)

I seen the remake before only one time. I did not like at all, i found very meh and very boring and I didn't like the final out come at all.

This wasn't not great but was a lot better then remake, It did have some cool scenes in this movie, the attack scenes could have been a lot better.

I loved the way those things looked in this movie a lot more creepy there the ones in the remake.

I really shocked how the movie ended as I didn't think that would have ended at all, Nice for change wen't movies don't end to predicable.

The acting was really good in this movie

"Revolt At Fort Laramie" (1957)
-John Dehmer
Plot: IMDB
It's just prior to the Civil War and Fort Laramie's problem is the Sioux Indians. When it is announced that war has been declared the fort becomes divided between northerners and southerners. The fort Commander and the southerners resign and head south. But they have to go through Sioux territory and are soon attacked. A messenger gets back to the fort to relate their hopeless condition and the new northern commanded must decide what to do.

Phantom's Review: Decent, little "B" western. The film has a couple of good action scenes and the acting is all right. It's not a great movie by any standards but it is entertaining. Not a bad way to spend an afternoon.

horrorfangirl66 02-28-2013 08:02 PM

Per suggestion from this site. I sought out the Phantasm series. I had already seen the original awhile ago and was told that the series was good. I found the second one yesterday and watched it tonight. I did enjoy it a lot. :) I will be trying to find find III next.

"Alligator" (1980)
_Robert Forester, Robin Riker

Plot: IMDB
A baby alligator is flushed down a Chicago toilet and survives by eating discarded lab rats, injected with growth hormones. The small animal grows gigantic, escapes the city sewers, and goes on a rampage.

Phantom's Review: What can I say, I love this film. I saw it in theaters way back in "80, thought it was a blast. Many years later I saw it again and still loved it. Terrific acting from both leads, and the supporting cast is made up of some fine character actors. The script is fun, filled with plenty of humor and lots of monster action and scares. Not exactly a classic, but a great way to spend an evening, especially with friends.

Dead of Night (1977)

Another horror anthology movie, Not to be confused with the 1945 version with the same title (which is also an anthology),

First story, I was watching on my Phone, While I was on the Bus, as the movie is on you tube.

Second Chance" I not sure think of this story, it did make me think for few hours after wards ,I liked how the story flowed.

This man buys classic car and fix up and then takes for Drive only find out that he as somehow went back in time.

While back time, The Car he was driving is taken by someone, who he tries stop, soon walks back and then wake up , Knowing he back in really time.

He falls love with Girl he never noticed before (That was first hint) Which I didn't get at the time but as the story went, it made more sense.

I thought this was very decent story, it wasn't scary at all but It' did make we think and the acting was really good.

Next story No Such Thing as a Vampire"

(I hope I don't sound like broken record, As you know i am not big fan vamps movie)

Patrick Macnee as a doctor whose wife is suffering from the symptoms of vampire attacks.

I found this story decent, there were some cool decent and creepy moment in this short that made really well.

The music in this segment was okay as it added bit more creepy feel to the story and I really enjoyed how the story came to a end

Bobby - (This is where Trilogy of terror 2 got this from)
This is was lot more slowly paced then ^ Movie named there and it did have bit more creepy feel to it.

I liked how they try not show the face of kids though out the segment, it makes it feel a lot more darker,

I loved end of this short, now that is what you call decent Demon face, as that looks at more scary, then end of Trilogy of terror 2 Bobby segment.

7 out of 10

Really good anthology

Which of Bobby's Demon Face looks better

I was eagerly looking forward to see this one as it's got two of my favorite 70's Euro hottie--Barbara Bouchet and Rosalba Neri! And finally found it on youtube (there's some really cool Giallo channels in youtube!). Slightly disappointed as it turned out just an erotic thriller, not a Giallo. But still worth a watch for just Bouchet & Neri.

Got a marathon going with Netflix now. Just finished watching Suspiria (77). I love the music it is genuinely creepy and sets the tone. The colors used in the film are also what make it so eerie.
