The Exorcist: The Version You've Never Seen

most of the added stuff was unnecessary but the spider walk was pretty cool

Children of the Corn (1984)

It's alright, still think it's overrated though.

The ratings are pretty universally average to below average. The film is more famous than the film warrants. The name, idea, and/or the marketing, really made a slash.

Terry O'Quinn is really good as the psycho who wants the perfect family and unravels when things don't work out. You really want things to work out for him and the explosive violence scenes are quite jarring. Worth seeing although you'll be amazed at how lax the police force is here and knowing they would have nabbed him years ago with DNA testing. ***1/2

Love that movie!! I watched it when I was a teenager. Terry O'Quinn plays a great psycho!!

As a teen of the 80's, Children of the Corn was one that always stuck out. At that time, it was a creepy movie.

Funny story.....my friends and I would try to scare the crap out of each other by running around in a corn field late at night yelling "Children of the Corn". Someone always ended up screaming. Oh, those silly things you do ::embarrassment::

Almost everyone I talk to hates it, and I have to agree. It's one of the most boring and silly horror movies I've seen.

Let's Jessica to Death: 8.5/10

I finally managed to watch this film; I have been wanting to watch it for a while. I have to say I really enjoyed this film. At times, it felt a little standard, but that changed as the film went on. I was definitely wondering exactly what was going on throughout the film. I figured out certain things, but did not know what they meant. I definitely did not see the ending coming. Another thing was I was able to connect with the characters particularly Jessica. I often wondered if what was happening was real or imagined. They played that angle real well. I definitely agree that the film had a very eerie and creepy feeling. I was definitely on edge at several points. This was enhanced by the simple, piercing score. The film also seemed to posses a somber, depressing feel like as if the situation was hopeless. Overall, an excellent film.

House Of Dark Shadows (1970)
-Jonathan Frid

Plot: Released from his coffin, after 200 years, by local drunk Willie Loomis, vampire Barnabas Collins goes on a killing spree, while at the same time charming his modern era relatives. Soon he meets local girl Maggie Evans and becomes convinced she is the reincarnation of his long dead fiancee Josette and he plans to go through with the wedding.

Phantoms Review: One of my all time favorite vampire movies. Even if you've never seen the tv show, you can follow this movie. This is a well made, well acted horror story. The plot is based on a story from the show, but condensed down to movie length. The film has kind of a Hammer Films style to it and it works well. This is a fun entertaining movie.
