Plus, Wise stuck close to Jackson's story. longship Jan 2014 #5
"My God! What was holding my hand?" (The biggest chill in the flick.) Yep. scarletwoman Jan 2014 #6
One of those great ensemble casts. longship Jan 2014 #7

I've never seen a Quentin Tarantino movie - mostly because they just aren't the kind of movies scarletwoman Jan 2014 #12

The worst movie I ever saw was called "Horror Planet" OmahaBlueDog Jan 2014 #16
That's an interesting list. I've heard of almost all of those movies, but I've only seen two. scarletwoman Jan 2014 #17
You remember correctly OmahaBlueDog Jan 2014 #18
I see we're in the same boat regarding Eyes Wide Shut. scarletwoman Jan 2014 #19
Let me add more to the list OmahaBlueDog Jan 2014 #20
Those titles are familiar, but I haven't seen any of them. scarletwoman Jan 2014 #21

How dare you diss High Anxiety! :) Actually, I loved it. valerief Jan 2014 #27
For whatever reason, I'm not a fan of most Brooks work after "Young Frankenstein" OmahaBlueDog Jan 2014 #32

Blair Witch Project. Dreadful. valerief Jan 2014 #24
I didn't mind it much, but then I was stoned when I went. scarletwoman Jan 2014 #31
You were smart. I wish I'd been stoned, too. nt valerief Feb 2014 #35
