bad taste

Don't get you here . . . both of these ("Bad Taste" especially) are pretty much comedies. "Dead Alive" is along the lines of "Evil Dead II", yes there is lots of gore but it's done for laughs as opposed to scares. Both are classics though.

"Did you have to eat some chuck?"

=)

If you are doing the triple bill, throw "Meet The Feebles" in there.

Cheers

Just watch Hitchcock films

That would be a badass Halloween movie-thon.

What do you mean "unititiated" . . . people gotta go through some sort of hazing ritual to watch movies with you?

=)

Not sure if my grandmother would find them funny but my mom definitely would.

I was just trying to sound cool. uh I dunno, its hard for me to pick things that are actually scary, most don't scare me any more. and lots of stuff just makes me laught these days.

Not too much of a horror fan (I REALLY can't stand sudden pop-outs, do not like them!!!!), BUT
Not only are

The Shinning
and Session 9

two amazing horror movies, they are two of my favourite movies ever.

[Rude Boy Puff]

Session 9 was such a pleasant surprise.
