question for you officianados
 

Has anyone seen the Blind Dead movies? I just put all 4 of them (Tombs of the Blind Dead, Return of the Evil Dead, Ghost Galleon, Night of the Seagulls) in the queue at Netflix. From what I read they sound decent.

BTW, I don't know if I spelled officianados right - if I didn't, sorry! :D

I havnt yet. But ive wanted to get the box set so bad.

I heard they are very good. Im saving up to get it! Make sure you let me know how they are when your done viewing them.

You'll probably get them before I see them - they're at the bottom of the list! :D If you do, let me know how they are, OK?

i saw at least one of them a while back and wasnt impressed ..

picked up a double feature (anchor bay) a short while ago and havent watched it yet ..

The box set does look yummy ... i might buy it and give the whole bunch a go again.

i know Zwoti digs them ...

all i could remember is crumbly musty old zombies and not much gore ..
maybe i saw a cut version the 1st time ?

See, you need to give your collection to me! :D I have more time to watch movies than you do! ;)

well, i'm getting to them ... i've seen a lot more since i screwed my knee up ..

my next door neighbour is digging my projector setup in the basement so i see a couple a week with him ...

some movies no one wants to see but me though ...
(roughly 4/5 of my collection falls into that category :)

So, the knee's still giving you fits, eh? Sorry to hear that! Did you go to the doc yet?

there goes my alarm again

ah yes, the templar knights :D

gory? not really though the first film is still cut to this very day in the UK

wELL I thinmk the Blind Dead movies is a lot of fun. They are horrible violent ghoul monsters after all. And if you like 70's horror films, which have their own special ambience, well, these can be quite satisfying

I like junk food, especically nachos. The word is "aficionado." And it's pronounced "a-fishin' for nachos."

The Blind Dead are great movie monsters, even if their films aren't great.

Actually, the first two are pretty good as far as exploitation cinema goes -- atmospheric, gory and effective, even if sometimes trashy. The third one has some okay atmosphere but it's a bit dull, and the last one just feels tired.

My favorite is RETURN OF THE BLIND DEAD. Read more here: http://www.hollywoodgothique.com/ret...ddead1973.html
