Just to put it out there, has anyone seen The Fog?
 

What a horrible film! Statred out good, then fell apart into a dribbling, slow rash of a film. British crap at it's best.

Re: Just to put it out there, has anyone seen The Fog?
 

statred eh?

Yep:)
 

I see I made a spelling error...and you are calling me on it....so now what do we do? Should I feel silly? Or proud that that is all you can call me on...proud...yes, I'll go with that.

so you don't like the fog as it's british crap.....so it's british eh?

Sigh....
 

I doubt that could be the reason, considering i am British

someone doesnt know his films that well.

Calls himself a True Fan.


roflmao

Really...
 

So, Shank, you tell me why I do not know films...please...go ahead.

Re: Really...
 

still awaiting your explaination as to how the fog is "british crap at it's best"

Weak story line, poor acting....effects....don't get me started. Like I said, it started out great...then they started talking....story was all over the place. The "ghosts" at the end....are you kidding me!?

Re: Really...
 

it was a generalisation, as in 'one' or 'many' films. In your case I suspect many.

Now tell us, how can the film be 'British' crap.

please answer the question, how is it british old wise one.......

.... we are waiting......

A British films in general can be crap. Are all of them? No, but the many of them are. From the many that I have seen, I do not see much in the way of great story telling. (Please, for the love of all that is good, don't pull out Monty Phython) The styling of the films are bland, the most they can usally pull off is decent King Arthur film from time to time.

once again i ask the question....why do you think the the fog is british?

any chance you'll answer this question.

... but we would like an answer.


please do not make us wait anylonger, the anticipation for your answer is just getting too much.

Ahh, yea, ol' ShankS
 

Well, I did answer....so, I really don't know what else to say....The Fog sucks, I guess.

does TrueFan know this though??

.... hey ShitHitsTheFan are there any British actors in The Fog???

we want to know.

Re: Ahh, yea, ol' ShankS
 

where?

God! This thread is the funniest thing I have ever read. Look at the way zwoti and ShankS are just hovering over TrueFan like a couple of vultures waiting for a kill. It's great. They're like two physical halves of one personality, twiddling their fingers and finishing each other's sentences, all the meanwhile drooling with large grins on their faces. What a pair!

Sweet heaven....
 

Dean Cundey ( Cinematographer) British...hence the poor film style.

John Carpenter.....he has YET to make a real horror film

Charles B. Bloch (Producer / Executive Producer) Britiash...he has the cash and had allot of say on the film...hence...the sucking part.

so are you saying that john carpenter is british?

So I guess, 'Christine' and 'Vampires' aren't horror films?! and Damn all this time I thought they were!

Oh and just because a film has a British producer ($$$) doesn't mean the film is a British film!!

If I remember correctly this film stared Jamie Lee Curtis, who did this film shortly after Halloween, and it took place in the States! So HTF is it British Crap?

Re: Sweet heaven....
 

Wait wait wait. John Carpenter has made some classic horror films ... what are you talking about?? Halloween, The Thing, Christine (you have to admit, it's a classic.) Please list some films you consider to be "good horror" so that I know where your tastes lie.

I say we vote to Ban TrueFan, who's with me?

It is REALLY like working at a retard daycare center
 

Okay......I never said JC was British...and yes, his horror films suck...Halloween...slasher film....Carrie, again, a weak film. Lord people, I thought you guys knew what it was you were tlakiing about! Weak comments on poor films. You try talking trash...but you say nothing. I thought a real drbate could occur...I fear I have stumbled into a teen hang out...my bad.....

PLEASE BAN ME!!!!
 

Angry teens, with little or nothing to say...so Please ban my ass...kick me out.....what do i have to do so I don't fall into this weak site again!!!!!

Re: It is REALLY like working at a retard daycare center
 

no, your "bad" was to stumble across people who ACTUALLY know about horror films.

p.s.

his horror films suck...halloween...slasher film

but i thought you said slasher films weren't horror...therefore you shouldn't be including this in his list of "horror" films.

Re: It is REALLY like working at a retard daycare center
 

Okay, well I'm not a fan of slasher films ... particularly because this particular type of horror has followed the path of comedy and gore over scares. But, Halloween was not like this. It generally tries to be frightening, and it was to its generation. I don't see how Carrie was a weak film, though. Taking into consideration the technology available, it was well-made and Sissy Spacek's performance is one of the most memorable in the genre. I know you don't have a problem with the story, because you lauded King's work (story-wise) in another thread.

Even so, what do you consider to be good horror? Please list some films.

HA-ha...slow yer roll Tex
 

Look, I know film, allot better than you guys..I assure you of that. Just really came here to actually see if you get all flusters on messgae boards or if you ignore people. I see you have tantrums.....you guys are great for a laugh...a laugh of pity, but a laugh none the less.....all right teens, I'm outta here now for good, so talk your carp...about the loser TrueFan.........

Re: It is REALLY like working at a retard daycare center
 

john carpenter directed carrie?....man is brian de palma gonna be pissed.

Slasher films are a sub-genre of Horror Films, you can't say that slasher aren't horror cause they are!

You obviously must not really like horror films, cause basically all you do is BASH all of them!

Re: HA-ha...slow yer roll Tex
 

Wait! Where are you going? I thought I was engaging in a decent discussion here, and now you're going to scuttle off? Why?

TrueFan you are well and truly.........

The Fog...........which has been established here is not British........and if it were, would probably be better....although it is a favorite of mine...............and YOU are totally proving yourself worthy of the appointation of resident idiot on this forum!!!!!!!!

...................................Get your freaking facts straight before you shoot off your mouth dip shit!:rolleyes:

Re: HA-ha...slow yer roll Tex
 

and you think john carpenter directed carrie.

Ditto!!
:D

Well thank you MD.....nice to be so loved lately..........shhhhhhh have to keep up my kick butt rep here! lol!
:D

I can only take so many loads of shovelled shit..........:rolleyes:

When did he say John Carpenter directed Carrie? I must have missed that. I thought he was just listing some films that he thought were bad, when I asked him to list some he thought were good. Unless, when he said Carrie he meant Christine. But even so, how is Christine a weak film? What the fuck?
