If I want to see lame, derivative eyecandy that mangles the Hammer aesthetic, I'll watch Sleepy Hollow. Oh, and Sleepy Hollow blows too. Way to squander Christopher Lee, Tim Burton. Way to squander a horror archetype, Coppola.

I d love to award the title of Surgeon General to Doc. He dissects the movies with a scalpel as smoothly as skin being peeled off by a plastic surgeon.:D
This is good stuff. Keep it coming folks!!
Which brings me to another guilty pleasure yet a much hated movie of modern times...
Why don't many of you like
Alien vs Predator? You got both of the most scariest monsters on-screen together vying for top glory, and Paul Anderson directing Lance Henriksen and a buncha lame actors.
Was it the lack of claustrophobia? Or was it the plot?
Bring on the bashing!!
