I think my only gripe was that none of the characters were remotely memorable. Still a top tier challenge watch though.

Plot was kinda hard to keep up with should be better with another watch. The creature effects were top notch.

Never noticed when I'm looking at specific rank lists on Flickchart (like say, I wanna see the top Tobe Hooper movies, for example) it gives a percentage placement on where the movie is on your list, in addition to where you rank it along with the average user. I think going by this percentage I can narrow down grades a little more hardcore now. Since F through A+ has 13 steps, I can't simply go by percentages of 10. I've got it broken down to 4 steps that cover 7 percent, while the rest over 8 percent. All the 7 percents are the "+" sections. Almost thought about doing it school style, but that would mean up to 59% of my list are F's which just ain't right at all.

Of course it means going back through the grades on ones that are actually one flickchart and comparing lol.

Jack's Back (1988). I hope this is horror. So far, 20 minutes in, it doesn't seem like horror, but could go in that direction.

I had no idea Peter Cushing was such a badass. He's just fantastic in these Hammer flicks.

It's not just me then. Last time I watched it, it seemed way shorter than I remember it.

Just finished Microwave Massacre.
It was soooooo cheesy bad but I couldn't stop watching it to see what the dork would do next.
Plus I couldn't stop laughing because it was like whenever the scene had a dull moment they just shoved boobs in there to fix the plot somehow. It gets one point for being wacky but that is all I can give.
