Re: PSYCHO - The Official Horror Movie Discussion Thread

[Nico]

Thank you James, another one for my list brother

[Nico]

Looking through one of my cupboards today II found this book I bought about 10 years ago   It has great artwork from the old pre cert video boxes, some really cool glossy pics, glad I found this   Back in the day I've hired many videos because the artwork on the box was awesome only for the actual film to be crap   [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]

really cool Andy . I have many horror books like this one also although I don't own that one . ive bought 80% of my horror from exactly what you just described . horror movies are funny like that aint they .
I think I own the complete "nasties" list as that was a collecting goal of mine many years ago . great cover art always draws me in . some of the list that they banned ive never made it through as the movies just fn blew .
some though are absolute classics

Bill we are on the same wavelength brother along with a few other gents here     It was a goal of mine to watch every film on the DPP nasty list and I've done about 90%, I slowly add them to my DVD collection as and when I can I will finish watching the remaining ones on the list all thou these days it's laughable why some were banned, it was different times then I suppose

[hellhippie]

I agree Andy but some ......... oh man
the beast in heat and ilsa she wolf of the ss I can understand why they banned those .
some others are simply my favorite movies ever made like anthropophagus and fulcis zombie , don't foret cannibal holocaust

[General Kahn]

Been away a while so looking forward to catching up on this thread, until then I'll just leave this here for you all to ponder (and for James to get frisky  )

the beast in heat I can understand why they banned those .

I just saw The Beast the other day.  Holy crap!  

More porno than horror.....

The soundtrack was really grating on my nerves though.

Is that the 3D version?



Question.  If this is 3D, and there's a scene where the wind does a Marilyn Monroe on Alex, if he's being a true Scotsman, does that point of the film get renamed Free Willy?

Ian

[ourchickenshack]

That's a dangerous question Ian

I just watched the Australian Horror Movie Charlie's Farm it was a pretty good movie, It was pretty gory which is always a good thing. A few of my other favs were House of Wax, Ghost Ship, The Conjuring and of course the all time 1963 classic The Birds.

[Ian_C]

I have Charlie's Farm too!  As with many others (I have at least a continuous week's worth of horror films) I haven't  watched this yet, but it looks like one of the better ones.


Hey, you know what I haven't done in my last couple of replies?  Given you a forgotten 80's gem.  This one is more thriller than outright horror, but was creepy enough.  Martin Sheen in The Believers.

Enjoy!

Ian

[Nico]

Nice one Ian   Don't forget your gems bro, we like them   [You must be registered and logged in to see this image.]
I'll have to check Charlie's farm out, hav'nt seen that

[arohk]

Yes Ian The Believers is a great 80's gem for sure .

[Nico]

A film I've been wanting to watch for a couple of months now and finally got a copy today
on this rare occasion not a horror film but a psychological thriller, anyone seen 10 Cloverfield lane

[Ian_C]

I have it. As usual, it's on my list of "yet to find time to watch it" movies.

Loved the original though. Even though this didn't start off as a sequel to Cloverfield, I've heard good things about it.

Ian

Ps. What's that? Been a while since I posted an 80's gem? We're talking about grotesque monsters? This is an absolute classic. BASKET CASE

Ian

[Nico]

Good choice Ian, I've got the Basket case on dvd, and have seen 1 + 2

Picked up this blue ray  on E-bay for £7 as I really like the John Williams score on this Brian De Palma film    

[Ian_C]

Cool, I've never heard of The Fury. Add another to my list to check out!

Did you post for another 80's gem.

No? That's okay. Been too long since I posted one. How about some more Wes Craven? So well known for his 'big' movies, like Elm Street and Scream, but he had some terrific ones that aren't as well remembered today, such as this (alright, technically it's 1991, but close enough for this 80's icon).

The People Under The Stairs

Ian

[Nico]

Cool, I've never heard of The Fury.  Add another to my list to check out!

Did you post for another 80's gem.

The Fury(1978) is similar to Scanners but not as well known (great film score by John Williams thou)

I'll let people digest your gem ' The people under the stairs ' which I think is awesome by the way I remember the young kid in it called ' fool ' Great film

Promise to post an 80's gem next time mate

Just watched it the other night and I thought it was pretty good

Here's a 80's movie I like ...

I enjoyed it as well James

Good choice on Re-animator mate, there are some great effects in that film

An 80's gem from me

This is not acceptable. Almost 2 months in this thread without a post from me? Dammit, I need to smarten up.

Anyone see the new Rob Zombie movie "31" is now available? I'm a huge Zombie fan, and while not all of his movies have been great, most of them are definitely entertaining. This one looks like a LOT of fun, and is being compared stylistically to The Devil's Rejects, which I'd say is his best film. I should be seeing this within the next day or so.

Resurrecting the 80's classic too. Anyone remember this?

Happy Birthday To Me

Ian

[ourchickenshack]

Cool - I didn't even know he had a new movie in the works

I'm a fan of most of his movies and Devil's Rejects is definitely his best (but I hated Halloween 2 )

[Ian_C]

I knew it was coming 2-3 years ago, at least, but just found out a few days ago it's been released online. It gets a small theatrical run in a couple of weeks, and then the home video release. He's released a couple of new songs to go with it too, although I don't think it's his best work at all.

I also am not a fan of Halloween 2. I thought his remake was way better than most give it credit for, especially the first half before he escaped, but the sequel was horrible. A few cool scenes, but junk overall.

Ian

[Nico]

Ian, thanks for the heads up on 31 mate, I'm a fan of Rob Zombies movies especially 1000 corpses and Devils rejects

Happy Birthday to me is a great 80's gem Really enjoyed the ending
