Great sountrack too.

I agree 4 was strange.... im wondering if the director was wanting to end with some thought provoking issues, whilst giving us some story about the questions we had.
Personally id prefer to keep the "Tall man's" past out of it, but now we know.
I thought 1 and 2 were spectacular, seminal at the time. In fact it was only after seeing 2 i tracked down 1 and then saw 1-4 and enjoyed every moment. I still see the second as my fave, but the 1st is very close.
I was watching carefully for a while to see if theyd make a 5, theres so much info on it. Although Angus is growing old, hes almost 90 now, and theyre still doing the rounds signing for fans.. i cant see it happening but would love if they did. Its rare these days to find a truly creepy yet in some ways almost cheesy character who you never tire of, in movies nowadays :)
Anyone who doesnt like these must be on another planet, and are probably the same ones who ensure movies like "Teeth" are still made!
