Poltergeist
 
How is this movie? I'm TiVOing it but it doesn't come on for another week or so, but I'm kinda psyched to finally watch it. Good? Bad?

Depends on what you're looking for. I thought it was really good, but it's just a typical ghost story overall. If you want cool deaths, go elsewhere. Still, classic, great movie:)

You're what??! I can't really remember much of it I've been meaning to buy it but it hasn't popped up cheap anywhere yet. Some fool was trying to charge me $20 for the VHS the other day. Fuck that!

TiVO. I couldn't live without it. It's like a hard drive on your TV...it tapes shows right on to your TV (Via digital cable) and you can watch them whenever. It also allows you to FF, pause or rewind TV. It's amazing.

TiVo

A key 80's title.
It has dated settings wise, but it still has some great visuals and ideas and a good few chills. The 'steak' scene was a major freak-out when i was younger, and the storm/bed sequence is a textbook example of how to do a haunted house scene.
