no, i asked if you ever watched this is horror the documentary behind the scenes and interviews with horror movie makers tv show on MTV back in 1990. so did you ever watch this show?
me too i watched it in 1990. so awesome that we actually watched it for the first time at the same time! that's so special to me. i would like to find out how people came across this movie the first time bc for one i've only seen it being show on tv one time about 10 years ago.
i remember there being 2 different video box covers. the cooler one of course is not on the dvd cover. for some reason they always don't put the same cover of the vhs of horror movies from the '80s on the dvd covers and blu ray covers. which is wrong bc the old vhs covers are always 100 times better than the cheap looking, non artistic covers of dvds and blu rays.
so the cooler one i saw at the library one time. it has a vampire abut the bite a girl in a dress on the cover and it's all serious and brooding looking. and the kind of dumb one they put on the dvd with the dumb tagline more fun than a barrel of mummies. which is not funny and dumb.
i love how you said spellbinder with kelly preston. i watched this movie only bc in my bare facts video guide book it says she shows her tits thru her see thru shirt in bed.
it's a bad movie, boring and just bad in every way almost. i will always love tim daly bc of wings and her costar crystal bernard like many actors got her start in a slasher movie called slumber party massacre 2. which is quite enjoyable. that is a movie that i need to re-watch soon. have you ever watched this movie?
the magic of being 10, 11, 12 or teens and watching movies on video back in the late '80s and '90s bc your sister or friend rented it on vhs tape is one of my fondest memories of my life.
i remember watching movies with my sister's friends on vhs. they say you should grow up every person should but if your best times in your life were when you were 12 or younger then why not relive those times your whole life? and why live in your sad depressed current life?
the majesty and epicness of this experience i will always fondly look back on. something really special even today about sitting down and watching a horror movie or any movie on vhs tape on my vcr and listening to the static sounds and watching the grainy video of the movie.
i have a new tradition and it is sitting down and watching silent night, deadly night on my vcr every christmas that i started last year.
ok this is really cool and special to me bc you brought up return of the living dead movies and dana ashbrook who is in return of the living dead 2. have you ever watched it?
i love him in waxwork. he's so lovable and funny and cool.
i love how magical the mummy story is. it has this great atmosphere and tomb and action special effects and a great believable set.
the part that is really respectable to me being a hardcore horror movie fan is the part in the vampire story where a guy is laying down with his leg halfway eaten off.
it always struck me as powerful when i was a kid of 12 bc it looks so gruesome and realistic and it still looks gruesome and just a realistic now, me being an adult as then and it's still gruesome to me also. it's an image and idea that i've never seen in any other movie except massacre in dinosaur valley. so it gets respect for being original.

yeah why did they always name every movie frankenstein? the movie is about the monster not franketsten so dumb so then every person mistakenly thinks frankenstein is the name of the monster bc i mean its called frankenstin so dumb and so wrong it should have been named after the monster, the book i mean.
yeah it has the unfortunate for it name frankenstein something.

The only thing about that movie I didn't understand was the ending. I didn't understand why people would wanna join a cult where you would starve yourself and then cut your own head off. It didn't make any sense. For a first viewin the events have enough mystery to keep my interests but that ending ruined the movie. I might watch it again cuz some of the other horror movies I've been brave enough to watch just aren't as awesome as the classics.
The last horror I watched was
The Curse of Humpty Dumpty
. It was slow for about 35 minutes. I even dosed off a couple of times. I kept wondering when they would get to the point of Humpty Dumpty cuz I was always fascinated by the Humpty Dumpty nursery rhyme.
The movie seemed more concerned with portraying dementia as the actual horror part. If that was the point, the director still didn't visualize it in a way that kept my interest or felt creepy.
Finally when the damn Humpty Dumpty started moving about the house was when the movie kept my attention.
Here's the opinion of another person. His criticism gets really technical. Gosh he's really ugly too. But anyway, it's a decent review of the movie. Should help someone decide.
