I thought that would be a good thing.

Slayrrr, you haven't seen Coppola's Dracula, yet?
You should check out Nosferatu. Maybe. It's a little slow for our modern super-movie-perceptions, but it set incredible standards for horror--and Coppola used a lot of those filmmaking techniques and honored the hell out of it when he made Bram Stoker's Dracula.
Also, there's a line from Coppola's Dracula that was sampled by Death Metal band, Divine Empire, for a song on the Nostradamus album.

I didn't get to it yesterday, Q, but I did get to Candyman, Christine and The Hills Have Eyes (There was nothing good on TV last night) so I'll have reviews for them up in that order. Candyman's first, and I think you'll be surprised about what I say about it.

I love Christine--both the movie and book. One of Carpenter's best, in my opinion.
His music and camera lenses and shots are fantastic. I always loved the way lights at night look in his films--the stretched wide, flat beams. Very cool.

Look for them tonight or early tomorrow, I watched them without writing the review as I went (which I usually do) since I din't know how long it take me to write three reviews at once, so I took notes and used them to write the review.

Well, it's December, so here's the fruits of my work for the past month:
Psycho
Poltergeist
The Serpent and the Rainbow
Inferno
Black Sunday
The Mummy (59)
Horror of Dracula (57)
The Curse of Frankenstein (57)
The Shining
28 Days Later
The Evil Dead
Christine
Dead Ringers
*Bram Stokers Dracula (92)
The Hills Have Eyes
Seen but do not own:
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (74)
Scream
*Carrie
The Mummy (31)
Dracula (31)
Frankenstein (31)
Alien
Candyman
Braindead
Creepshow
Near Dark
And The Fly too.
Strike through, like this, means a review has been added, and *, means it's review is still being written. FYI, Exorcist, Braindead and Re-Animator are all coming in for Christmas, so I'll get them in when I get my presents then.
Is this good enough to relieve me of this prison? I missed two of the ones I owned, so that should account for something.

You're doing quite well.
You're making me look bad for my lackluster effort in finally seeing the Godfather Trilogy!
Still haven't done it!!

My parents asked me which one was the one I put on my list, since they saw two movies called Braindead and didn't know which one to get me, so I've got that one. Will need to search for Re-Animator though. I've seen the big Millenium Edition disk out there, so I'll get it one day. Here's hoping they got it anyway. |
