*Just as a little note before I get to the rest of this post...I liked the TCM remake too. It doesn't replace the original for me. BUT, here's the thing, the simple fact is, the TCM remake SCARED THE CRAP OUT OF ME when I saw it and I may never watch it again becaise I thought it was so creepy and unpleasant. I thought that it was almost unbearably unpleasant and I was sitting in the theatre just waiting for it to end--not because it was bad, but because it was TOO EFFECTIVE at what it was trying to do. I agree with one opinion I heard about this film, that a lot of reviewers panned it mainly because they were ashamed to admit that for once, a horror movie had DONE ITS JOB and rattled their brains a little.* Nufsed.
On to the main point of this post, though...jeez, you don't have to apologize for liking a movie! Heck...if everyone liked the same movies and hated the same movies, there would be no need to make as many movies as we make. Think about it!
But if someone criticizes my beloved PHANTASM, I will speak up and say, very loudly, that PHANTASM IS NOT A POO NUTS MOVIE!!!!!!!!!!
