GREYLUPO 358 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 I love horror movies, I like when they can put me on edge. I like to come home from shooting and put one in while I clean the guns or gun. Of course Im a huge zombie fan and like alot of the movies. My fav newer one is the Dawn of the dead remake. I also really like the series The walking Dead, they did a really good job on it. One of my all time favorite horror films is not a Z film at all, its a gem called THE THING by John Carpenter. Its an early 80s focking awesome scary movie. Its the atmosphere of the movie that just puts you on edge. It stars an 80s Kurt Russel. A prequel will be out this this Oct, its about what happens the day or days before The Thing, about what happend at the other camp. I think itll bring in a younger audience, I was only 1 when it came out myself. Since I went out last night and had too much fun, Im hung over like a mofo now and Im not going out tonite. When it gets dark Im going to watch it while I clean my rifle and wait for my GF to come over. If you havent seen the movie, I posted the first part. Youll thank me later. http://youtu.be/25_MNd-RDa8 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
The_Vigilante 14 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 The movie to which you refer is a remake of the orginal "The Thing From Another World" done in 1951 by John Carpenter. Not aware if you knew this. Stars James Arness before he became famous in Gunsmoke. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not aware if you knew this. Stars James Arness before he became famous in Gunsmoke. I was aware of this I was just keeping it simple. Did you know that first movie was done off a short story by a guy named John Campbell, first published in 1938. It was called Who goes there? Thanks!

Saw it when I was a kid, its not a good idea to ignore the rating on this one. Prequel could be awesome on it, we'll wait and see. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DrThunder88 912 Posted May 29, 2011 Report Share Posted May 29, 2011 I'm not a big fan of horror movies, but I do like crappy, old B-movies, some of which are loosely described as "horror". Though I appreciate them more for their camp than their gore. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ktcm7271 999 Posted May 29, 2011 Report Share Posted May 29, 2011 We all know that that "The Thing" is a remake. Now it is getting re-done in the Twilight fashion! It's gonna suck. John Carpenter's Thing will always rule! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

John Carpenter's Thing will always rule! Its not getting redone, its a prequel. its about what happens at the Norwegian camp before the events of The Thing. Im reading its going to be good. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BronCobraJet 80 Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 I haven't owned a tv for 11 years now, and a bunch of people kept telling me how good The Walking Dead was, it not on You Tube because of copyright stuff, so I finaly ordered it on DVD. Very cool show. Not as scary as I thought it would be, but character driven. Special effects are amazing. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dayofruin 425 Posted June 18, 2011 Report Share Posted June 18, 2011 I thinks it's one of the best zombie stories on film. Waiting till october for the next season is the worst part... My girlfriend and I watched the whole first season on DVD one night. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Koliadko 207 Posted June 19, 2011 Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 I just watched Mega Python vs. Gatoroid! Yeah, I watch chessy horror movies. Just loved when helicopter pilot dangles Tiffany in front of snakes and gators like he's dangling bait! My favorite horror movie is Aliens, the second one. Could watch that right now and be a happy camper. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Not aware if you knew this. Stars James Arness before he became famous in Gunsmoke. The 1951 The Thing From Another Planet was a Howard Hawks film. Carpenter did the remake. BTW I am looking forward to the prequel. I saw the Carpenter film at the theater when I was a kid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
