Horror Movies & other rare gems!

Speaking of Evil Dead, I saw the off-Broadway play about two years ago. The first two rows (I sat in the first) were the designated "splatter zone," where stage blood would spurt onto the audience. I went to the first public preview, so they were still working out the spurting part, which is to say that not much of the blood made its way to the audience, much to my shagrin. I did, however, swipe one of my Playbills through a puddle of it that was sitting on the stage on the way out. Talk about a fun time!

I probably mentioned it on one of the other forums, but I was lucky enough to go to an advance screening of Evil Dead 2 as USC through being a member of the Academy of Sci-Fi, Fantasy and Horror when I was in high school.  The president or vice-president of the Academy remembered how much I loved this movie, so he sent me the press pack for it.  I took a group of my friends to the Friday midnight opening night showing at the theater in Westwood were the cast and crew (including Bruce) did signings to see it a second time in the theater.

I hated that movie, thought it was the stupidest piece of crap I ever saw...

How can you say that, it's like Airplane the horror movie!

Before i ever knew about Evil Dead 2....

I play "Theif" a 3D first person shooter.
About 2 years ago i played a fan made mission called ED2.
It was set in a shack out in the woods, really weird, had a walking hand, self-rocking chair, trap door, and other stuff that i didn't get the point of.
6 months later i saw the movie.
Wow! Creepy, it was so dam framillier. I felt like it was happening in a place i had actually been in real life. My skin crawled.
Now i'm a big fan.

One of my favorites just came out on bootleg DVD on eBay. Get Crazy. This is about a stupid a movie as you get, but great fun.

Is that the film with Malcolm Mcdowell as a psycho rock star and takes place mostly in a club.  I have the vhs of that which I haven't watched for years....so someone went and bootleged it.  Is it widescreen or do you have any idea of the source...it is kind of a guilty pleasure classic, eh?

The other Stan The Man...too bad.

Monster Squad was another great guilty pleasure. The Get Crazy is the rock movie but not widescreen. Probably duped off the VHS. But, even though I have the tape, I am trying to cut down on space so I bought the DVD until a real one comes out.

One of my favorite movies that isn't available on DVD is Mother Lode (1980) with Heston.  I've got a bootleg copy of this on DVD I bought off eBay.  Great movie.

Monster Squad was another great guilty pleasure.

I met the guy that did the special effects for that movie and he also plays The Creature from the Black Lagoon in it. Nice guy, grew in a town about 1 hour away from me.

"Whoa. Wolfman has Nards!"

EXCELLENT MOVIE!

To those of you with TCM, tonight the ultra-rare The Oscar is being shown penned by Harlan Ellison.  It's a film that totally earns it's one-star status and worth seeing....after all how can any film that stars Tony Bennett playing a cat named Hymie Kelley be all bad....watch at your own risk!

TCM?

Texas Chainsaw Massacre??
