Friday the 13th- Part II
(it’s the first with a killing and burlap sack wearing Jason)
Halloween- Rob Zombie’s Halloween
(nothing against the original- I’ve seen it every Halloween since I can remember, but I love Rob’s version. It’s grittier and goes more in depth)
A Nightmare on Elm Street- Love the original
(One, two, Freddy's coming for you. / Three, four, better lock your door. / Five, six, grab your crucifix. / Seven, eight, gonna stay up late. / Nine, ten, never sleep again.)
Saw- original
Scream- original
(very good series)
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre- The original (1974)
Alien- Aliens
Predator- original
Phantasm- I've only seen the original
Evil Dead- Evil Dead II
Hellraiser- The original
Child's Play- The original
Final Destination- the first one I guess (
really don’t care for these movies though)
Segment in Anthrology-Trick r'Treat "Surprise Party"
(although I absolutely LOVE the whole movie!)
I Know What You Did Last Summer- original
Paranormal Activity- original
Jaws- original
Romero's Living Dead Series- Diary of the Dead
(loved the message this one sent and it was really relevant about today being so “tuned” in all the time. I like all of Romero’s films. This one just really stood out because of the different message)
Poltergeist- original
Re-Animator-original
Tremors- original
Universal (1930s-1940s)- The Wolf Man (1941)
Hammer- The Mummy (1959)
Children of the Corn- original
Amityville Horror- original (one of my favorites)
Hannibal Lecter- Silence of the Lambs
Anthrology TV Series segment- Goosebumps "Night of the Living Dummy II" (1996)
(read the books and I loved the show as a kid, I can hear the theme song just thinking about it, I also watched Tales from the Crypt and Are you Afraid of the Dark?)
New edition: Psycho- the original is classic
New edition: When a Stranger Calls- the original
("Have you checked the children?").
New edition: Underworld- Rise of the Lycans
New edition: Fright Night- I really love the original.
It’s in my top ten faves. Part 2 was enjoyable. The remake was pretty good, but neither of them is as good as the original. Evil Ed :-)
