Frighteners
 

I had this was a good Peter Jackson film (um like which ones aren't good?)

I always loved thta movie. Between the frighteners ans Contact, jake Busey gets a prize for being godamn freaky.

Have loved this since seeing it on the big screen. Can't believe it totally bombed. It's so much fun. It's slowly getting a better rep and maybe now after LOTR more people may see it. I hope so.

Great film.....fucking great.
Anyone else see a resemblance to the Jake Busey character (while still in "ghost grim reaper" mode) bore more than a slight resemblance to the wraith dudes in the LOTR series?

Yes I thought that and PJ also mentions this on the LOTR DVD!!!

yeah almost a replica

I'm waiting for the "special edition" DVD , I hear its coming out soon.Great movie. Very underated. fucking shame about Michael J Fox, but I saw him on "Scrubs" last week, and he still pretty good.

I agree this movie fucking owns hardcore. So does micheal j. fox, anyone else remember TEEN WOLF??:p

Who doesn't remember Teen Wolf!? First one is brilliant, cool eighties movie! I watched the sequel again for the first time since the big screen and it truly sucked!

Yup, I gotta back you up on your thoughts of the sequel, sleepaway.
And I beleive I can speak for THE REST OF THE FUCKING WORLD too...
-B

So is there a special edition DVD coming then? Is it the stuff from the laserdisc?

I love the Frighteners! In my opinion one of PJ's best! (i am not much of a LOTR fan)

Sorry sleepaway. I may be guilty of spreading false information as far as the special edition being released . I must have misread something or maybe it was just wishful thinking,but I can't find anything on a SE being released anytime soon.
But if you really want the special edition all I have to do is buy the one thats out now and sure as hell the SE will be released shortly after. Its happened to me quite a few times, The Thing,Die Hard,Tombstone,Evil Dead, and a few more. I hate when that happens:mad:
