Okay, here's a question.

I have [what I think is] an original Friday the 13th part VIII poster, the "I Jason New York" one. And at the bottom the release date is obviously a reapplied sticker. My issue is that I know the poster went through a bunch of revisions and the release date changed, so that may be the reason for the sticker if it is indeed an original. It could also be hiding a video release date or something else in order to appear original. The only way I could know is removing the sticker which would damage the poster. I just realized I don't have actually have a question.

The one that bothers me most is the prominent The Thing poster in Stranger Things. That movie infamously completely tanked at the box office! Nobody would have gave a poo poo about that poster!

They also show the kids watching Day of the Dead in the theater. There's no way a small local cinema would run an unrated film like that, much less let a bunch of thirteen year olds in.

Seconding the Fulci Zombie and the Blind Dead series.

Also gotta throw some love on the Tom Savini remake of Night, proud member of the short list of Actually Good Remakes.

I still love the scene where Barbara interrupts all the arguing by shooting the one zombie over and over again while yelling at them "Is he dead? You're all seeing this, is he dead?!"

At least part V created some memorable characters even if they had two minutes of screen time. And people like Carol Locatell and Miguel Núñez are having a great loving time.

I used to have an '83 Oldsmobile in bad shape and there were at least a few times I found myself singing "a rat-a-tat-tat-tooie, come on motherfucker it ain't startin'"

Jason Goes to Hell is bizarre because apparently they wanted to make a more "grown-up" movie by casting mostly people in their thirties and older, but too much is cartoonish and nobody behaves like a real person.

EDIT: Also, am I misremembering or are the FBI agents actually in a circle around Jason at the beginning? How did they avoid shooting each other?

Pretty much the same crew worked on most of the first seven Saw movies, so what the gently caress was with the scene transitions in part IV out of nowhere? Like a guy throws a woman through a window of an apartment building and on the other side is a hallway at the police station.

I just think it leans too heavily on Chevy Chase Being A Dickhead and is too disjointed to be properly horror or even properly comedic :shrug: It's an oddity, but it could've been really splattery. It's too tame to be Troma and too grotesque to be particularly funny, so it lands in this weird zone where it is mostly unsatisfying, but there's a lot of interesting weird poo poo in there that it could have been more.

That’s the problem with most Chevy Chase performances but it’s especially egregious in Nothing But Trouble because the whole point of his character is torturing an 80s NYC yuppie in a rural nightmare town.

When was the Poltergeist television series made? I feel like it was in that late 80s to late 90s period where horror movies weren't doing too well in theaters so let's make a TV show instead.

I like when he’s forced to drop the act and starts tearing off his outfit while screaming “gently caress this cowboy poo poo! You loving hoedown podunk well-then-there motherfuckers! All you had to do was give me the goddamn key!” and then calmly “And then we could’ve gone on with our lives…”

I love that they pad out the running time of the '84 one by just having the dude wander around silently looking for Linda Hamilton for loving ever.

EDIT: I'm most interested in seeing the "Oops, we hit a kid" scene because the others decided to make it funny for some reason.
