The third Phantasm...BAD. We watched it anyway because we wanted ot get the entire series under our belts, but we ended up giving it the MST3K treatment.
Is that the one where the dude has the 4 barreled shotgun? Man I want one of those...

As far as being horribly cheesy, Leprachaun was in there. I did sit through the first one and part of the second one. But I was a younger, less tolerant lass in those days so I didn't sit around to enjoy the special nature of "Back to Da Hood." Maybe I will in the near future.

As for that quad-barreled shotgun, I think it saw a little play in Phantasm 2 but only at the end (sorry, still hazy from turkey fog). Yes. That thing was sweet. I loved how he really didn't aim it so much as point it in a general compass direction and bodies littered down from the trees above. :D

That was Freddy's Dead: The Final Nightmare. And I agree with you on that one. What a piece of shit! I'll admit, Dream Child was lackluster, but it had its moments, so there was some redeemable qualities. But Freddy's Dead had nothing. Few kills, horrible dialogue, and bad characters. There were only two intriguing things in this movie: the hearing aid death was kind of neat and when mr. hearing aid (I didn't find it necessary to catch his name, since he was obviously going to die) was looking through teh map to see it said "You're fucked", then his buddies ask where they're at, and he says "Yeah, well the map says we're fucked!" That's it! And what the fuck were Roseanne and Tom Arnold doing in this movies? What's next? Oprah Winfrey in a Friday the 13th film?

I didn't like Depp's part. I just found it stupid. Then again, that's just me.

Definitely when all the movies went to space.

Leprechaun, Jason, Hellraiser.
