RyokoTK posted:I remember being seriously spooked out by the made-for-TV version of The Langoliers as a kid, only to rewatch it a bit later and realized just how completely laughable it is. Especially the incredible special effects. So this aired in 2 parts when I was in grade 7, I think. I remember because I missed the first part and my friend at the time sold me on the concept: A bunch of people wake on a plane, everyone else is missing, land at an airport, time is frozen, they hear this munching sound in the distance, turns out there's monsters that eat time, they're trapped in the past, that's why time travel doesn't exist or something. Sounds sellable as an Outer Limits episode. Then the second part had the titular Langdoliers you see in the above youtube. It had Balki from Perfect Strangers just hamming it up.

Dubplate Fire posted:This but I was 6 when my dad gave up. Earnest scared stupid was p good tho. My parents left me at my grandmother's house overnight when I was like 6 and she fell asleep on the couch with Fox on. This was when Fox was a UHF network showing syndicated garbage. So I saw C.H.U.D. when I was in first grade. It's okay, as 80's horror goes. The only movie I ever had taken away was some vampire movie called Graveyard Shift, because it starts in a strip club and there are boobies. (Horrific vampire murder was perfectly okay.) I wanted the Stephen King one anyway. I have seen the vampire Graveyard Shift as an adult. It is bad, but I'm pretty sure child me wouldn't have liked it either.

Did you by any chance grow up in a logging town? That episode really creeped me out as well and the fact that the bugs were released from the rings of trees that got cut down mixed with me growing up in a logging town turned the creepout dial to the max.

I'm also reminded of it every tine I watch Ghostbusters 2 with the goo coming out of the bathtub. I always liked Ghostbusters 2.

Xaris posted:i was getting p old by the time that came out, but still dumb enough not to realize it so yeah. i watched a lot of similar aggressively mediocre ones like dragonheart, thee musketeers, and first knight(i used to think this was one of the best movies ever made lol). i still like three musketeers tho Ace Ventura is good. It's a bad comedy but with a main character so bizarre he doesn't belong at all and it owns

cool new Polack jokes posted:3 pages and nobody has said Twister? I was inexplicably obsessed with tornadoes as a kid to the point where I'd watch the Weather Channel for several hours in the hopes that they'd show a couple seconds of footage from one. Likewise, I probably watched Twister, as well as several made-for-T.V. movies about tornadoes, 10+ times each. They were pretty awful in hindsight but all 10 year old me cared about was seeing nature gently caress poo poo up.

If you're sober it is perhaps the worst.

Zeroisanumber posted:Red Sonja Now as a kid I watched a shitload of horror films, I loved gore effects and never had any problems or nightmares even from the worst of them. But there is a scene at the start of Red Sonja where they throw some Druids/Priests into a pit that has a door at the top, that is opened with a key. And they toss the people in and remove the key that starts it to close. And the guy throws in the key into the pit so it could never be opened. Now that simple scene scared the gently caress out of me, shock scares dont phase me, but that knowledge of the people left to starve to death in the dark unsettled me.

Dubplate Fire posted:Earnest scared stupid was p good tho. Speaking of, has anybody actually sat through Dr. Otto and the Riddle of the Gloom Beam? I figure that any kid who was an Ernest fan would enjoy that movie too, but it was just one of those things that nobody really talked about. I never saw it, I never heard of anybody seeing it, I just remember that cover art and wondering what the gently caress was up with Ernest and why he had a hand on his head.

I was a huge fan of Pauly Shore movies as a pre-adolescent. It led to me assuming one could be a tool and still get incredibly hot women. It turned out to be a false assumption.

Josie and the Pussycats is another one like that. By all rights they should suck, but they're just clever enough to be fairly watchable. A kids movie that is actually The poo poo despite not really having any right to be? Babe 2, a Pig in the City

Bimmi posted:The phrase "tits like a sparrow" still sticks in my mind after all these years, though. I mean, what? Sparrows attack and kill the birds commonly known as tits. Also, basically every comedy from the 90s was awful, just awful. Weird thing I noticed watching late night hotel TV: Almost every single Adam Sandler movie has him horribly injure or kill an innocent person.

For me it would have to be Clash of the Titans. We had just got HBO, this was probably around 1982. It was on every afternoon when I got home from school, so I watched it like 20 times and thought it was amazing. I have since seen clips that prove otherwise. The sinful boner I had for Ursula Andress remains, however. e: gnarlyhotep fucked around with this message at 06:01 on Jun 28, 2017 |
