I agree. He was a great choice and did an excellent job

Polt is a film I could watch many times, too. The clown scene is one of the scariest on film.

They made for a great pairing although I've heard Spielberg was more in charge than Hooper.

I know I'm in the minority but there you have it!  |
I respect your opinion but disagree about Tangina. I thought her character was great. Creepy and otherworldly. The perfect character to show up and help them.

I won't get a chance this weekend but maybe next week I"ll try to catch one of them along with a Frankenstein movie for Chrono's Marathon.
