One recent scary movie I'm really wanting to see is THE DESCENT.

Cobalt, what you can do is what I did... use Google Search. You never know what you'll find!

SOMEWHERE out there, I actually found posted an ENTIRE SHOOTING SCRIPT for HALLOWEEN 6-- one of those dozen or so that WASN'T used. I skimmed most of it, but when I got to the last 1/3rd, I read it intensely. There were scenes in there between Donald Pleasense and Mitchell Ryan that were BRILLIANT. Astonishingly good!

Best line: "I even taught him how to drive!"

I got so PISSED OFF when I read it! How-- HOW could they NOT have used this material???

If I hadn't come to the conclusion before then, that made me sure the people involved in making the films were utterly depraved degenerates.


MEANWHILE... saw a really FUN serial-killer film over the weekend: SANTA'S SLAY. James Caan, Fran Drescher and "Chester" (!!!) all have uncredited cameos in the opening sequence. It's a blast! Definitely my kinda movie. (It was Chester that caught my attention-- I actually recognized him BEFORE I saw Fran!)

The Saw 3 trailer is up on youtube. Looks like Dinah Meyer is going to be a victim this time around [Frown]

At FYE this past weekend horror films were $7.99 each on DVD, a lil' Halloween Special. While I spent most of my money getting Veronica Mars Season Two, I did pick up a couple of DVDs that I've wanted to get for awhile:

Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original)
Wicker Man (original)
Halloween II (my college roomate still has my old one).

Not sure who lives near an FYE, but they actually had a pretty good selection and you can't beat the pricing!

(PS - I never buy a DVD unless I've seen it before)

One more thing--A year or two ago, Bravo aired its 'Top 100 Scariest Film Moments of all Time' or something, and it was a pretty kick-ass special. In fact, that have spurned this thread, but I'm far too lazy to click on the page one link and check. Anyone know if this will be re-airing anytime soon? The special was pretty awesome for a TV special.

Can't wait to see what Brewvies does for the Halloween festival they promised. From their short list, these were the five movies I suggested:

Dawn of the Dead (the remake)
28 Days Later
An American Werewolf in London
Shaun of the Dead
The Lost Boys

I watched the last hour or so of Halloween 5 last night on AMC. Question for Cobie and the rest of the "experts": Did or didn't the character Tina die in the scene out in the forest after Michael tried to run down Jamie? It's heavily implied that she did, especially by Jamie's reaction. But to me, it looked like a survivable wound, and it showed Tina on a gurney moments later with ot any covers over her.

I dunno. To me it looks like they're leaving her fate up in the air in case they want to use her in a sequel, but I could be wrong. I swear it bothers me every time I see that movie because I think she lived!

Of course, I'm sure no one planned for part 6 to come out six years later, so that has to be taken into consideration! [Smile]

Yeah, I liked the Tina character in that film, especially after she tried to shield Jamie from Michael. But I never thought that she might have survived.

Snce I made that post, Sarky, I've looked at various Wikipedia articles on the movie and the characters, and they all list Tina as having been stabbed to death. I dunno. I've only ever seen the edited-for-television version of that movie. Maybe her death's more explicit in the uncut version? [shrug]

I mean, hell, you can even argue that Loomis died in H5 after subduing Michael. Obviously, he appeared again in H6, though.

I've always considered her dead but the case can definitely be made for her living. I suspect it was left open 'if needed' for a possible sequel which was originally intended to happen pretty soon after.

I'd love to find a decent image of Tina in her costume for a commission at some point.

I haven't really sat down to watch the Halloween movies in a while, but I did like parts 4, 5, and 6.

I read there was a deleted scene in H2O where Laurie Strode, under her new identity, learns from one of her students that Michael managed to kill Jamie Lloyd a couple of years ago, and she then excuses herself from the classroom to go vomit in one of the bathrooms.
