Went to Pirates today with the family, it's long and of course not horror but the sets/scenes were great however...

they played the trailer for The Descent. It's coming to US theaters on August 4th (http://www.thedescentfilm.com/)...

I know Sinister has seen this, as have I, but I don't want discuss it yet...

I just want everyone to go see this one so we can post comments!

Trust me, you owe it to yourselves to see this when it comes out. Although I own it, I'm seriously considering going to see this on the big screen. I, like Scary, am not going to fully discuss this until more of you have checked it out. I sing Neil Marshall's praises and after you view this, you'll know why. One of the best Horror films to come out in sometime; forget High Tension, The Descent is the real deal.

I also saw Pirates with one of my sons today. Didn't like it as much as the first, but Son liked it better. More action and monsters in this one, I think.

Good one! My favorite James Woods role. I like when there's a movie where the line between who and what's worse is hazy. Jack Crow's slayers were almost every bit as bad as vampires were. Clooney and gang were worse than that in From Dusk Till Dawn. The last would be a perfect companion piece to Carpenter's Vampires. Might have to watch the both of them together one of these days. Now that Jeff has put that Texas Toad Lickers theme from the movie in my head by his mentioning of the film, I might have to instigate that plan today.

I am so happy to hear another person out there hated the House of Wax remake as much as I did. What the hell was up with that. Why oh Why did they call it the House of Wax when it resembled NOTHING of the first one with Vincent Price????? WHY??????

There were some creapy parts, but for me, if they would have named it something else I would have watched it with a different mentality. But i didnt and it sucked donkey butt!!!

AAAhhh I get so frustrated about certain things, thats one of them (and the 30 secs between each post used to be the other one LOL)

I haven't seen the remake of "House of Wax" yet, but that is how I feel about a lot of remakes. They often don't even resemble the source material and probably would have been better off just being re-titled as something else.

Back on topic...

I just watched "Dawn of the Dead" (remake) and "Jeepers Creepers" the other day. I believe next up I'm due for a viewing of "Ravenous," which I haven't watched in quite some time.

Sinister · #28 07-08-2006

HOLY HELL, Z! I was just thinking about Ravenous the other day and how cool it would be watching it back-to-back with The Descent. If you have a chance to see that movie man, you'll agree they fit perfectly. I think Kyra and I will check 'em out together when she's here. That is if, ah we get around to it...

I just finished watching "The Hills have Eyes" and mrs Unpleasant is so freaked out. Even more disturbing than the original that I watched years ago. This new version still had me on the edge.

Ok, now onto Jeepers Creepers or maybe From Hell?
