2010 October Horror Marathon (Discussion thread)

[addicted2dvd]

I was just chatting with a friend on Yahoo... and asked them what they thought I should watch first... and she came up with an idea I kind of like. She said...

"Watch Trick 'r Treat first... start with a Halloween themed movie and end with a Halloween themed movie (one of the Halloween movies)."

So there is a good chance my first movie will be Trick 'r Treat.

I'm still not sure what I'll start with.

Well... This is it! In 10 minutes I will be able to pop in my first horror movie after a 102 day horror absence!!!

I'm still trying to decide what I'm going to watch.   

I also picked up Little Shop of Horrors for only $5 at Wal-mart...need to add the overview to the profile..and get better scans.  Just haven't done it yet tonight.

I was just going to post that I felt a great disturbence in the force and then I noticed the time. With both you and Jimmy chompping at the bit to get started, it is no wonder everything feels tilted to the right for me. May you both have a good time with the marathon and sate your appetites.

Just come to check before I start since it's pass midnight here

As you can see in my banner I just watch Jesus Christ Superstar to compensate for all the evil films I'll watch this month

[Dragonfire]

Have fun you two.

Well it will be a few more hours at least before I get to any horror type movies..my mom wants me to watch something with her and she doesn't like horror.

Think we're going to watch Angels & Demons.

I feel so much better now! 

[Dragonfire]

I'm sure you do.

I didn't get in any movie-watching on the first day...I had dialysis and, as often happens, it wiped me out.  But tomorrow is Saturday so I'll try to watch a couple films.  I'm not going to go crazy and try to watch 4 or 5 movies a day, especially since I don't have hundreds of films that would fit the genre.  But I would like to average at least one movie a day anyway...

[Dragonfire]

I had wanted to get at least one more watched today but it didn't happen.  I've been in pain..I think I pulled a muscle.  If I move wrong, I have pain.  If I sit wrong, it hurts..sleeping was an adventure.  I'm honestly not sure how much sleep I did get.  I do almost have a review for Epinions done for the first one I watched, so that's something.  I'm just hoping the pain stops soon.

Looks like we just watch the same movie Marie
Will write my review after posting this...

[Dragonfire]

I'm almost ready to post a review at Epinions on it..then I'll write up something here.

[Jimmy]

Just read your review at Epinions. I don't know why but I ain't surprise that you were shocked by the death scene of Dameia

The Sid Haig's character was not supposed to had a line, it was added later while shooting and he really didn't like it. I agree with him since it seems to work against the character he plays who is supposed to be without emotions.

[Dragonfire]

I certainly didn't expect that..lol  I wasn't surprised by the attack itself...  She already said she didn't like worms and then there that thing was behind her.  But I didn't expect the attack to involve rape.  That was definitely different.

I remember hearing Haig say that in the documentary thing.  It did seem a bit odd.  He'd been kind of tough..and not expressing emotion before that like you said.  Then he is falling apart because those weapon things broke.  It was a bit..odd.  Though not as odd as Dameia's death.

Thanks for checking out the review at Epinions

Ohh...I was just looking at Amazon..the price on that 50 movie set dropped back down so I ordered it.  There are at least a few on there that are supposed to be decent.
