[Jigsaw]

Just had two shots of Kraken, and have a bottle of Leinenkugel's Orange Shandy in front of me - ready to watch what I set out to watch days ago: The Brain (1988)

Hope everyone else has plans as exciting as mine.

[Jason]

Work. So no.

[showa58taro]

Work from home day. Quite peaceful.

[Jigsaw]

After The Brain, went with H.G. Lewis' The Gruesome Twosome, which I hadn't seen before.

Definitely not one of his best, but certainly better than Color Me Blood Red. I'd take Blood Feast, Two Thousand Maniacs!, or The Wizard of Gore over it any time, though.

[Tiggnutz]

I still need to see Wizard of Gore

[Monster]

So Cliffhanger is getting a female-led remake. That should go well.

I still need to see Wizard of Gore

Partially nonsensical and often incompetent, but still a lot of fun.

You need to do yourself a favor and watch And Then There Were None (1945). You would love that movie.

We already saw what happens when you let broads on the rock in the first one. The only boulders they need to be climbing are the ones hanging low.

[Jason]

Thank the Almighty for putting Holly Holm on this Earth, otherwise we'd have gotten this...

[Jason]

Guys, is The Gate good?

[Reign in Blood]

It just so happens it's exquisite. Probably right behind Monster Squad for my favorite growing up of more kid centric horror.

[Tiggnutz]

Guys, is The Gate good?

Yes very enjoyable

[DancesWithWerewolves]

Guys, is The Gate good?

You ain't seen it yet? Quite good. Also shockingly good FX for a low budget Canadian movie.

I was looking at a top 200 list of 80s horror movies. As I got about halfway down the list, I made a commitment to buy the highest rated movie on the list that I don't own/haven't seen. The Gate it was, and #19 on the list. I looked at the trailer and it seemed pretty enticing. Definitely seems to be one I missed out on as a youngster. Gonna buy the blu ray and save it for the challenge. Just wanted to get a consensus on it. What age did you guys first see it?

[Monster]

I was 13 when I saw it and I've seen it a few times since, the last time being just a couple years back. Fun movie.

Ooh. That could be pretty cool depending on the actress they go with. All in for a Noomi Rapace or Tessa Thompson type character. Would be less sold if it was a Scarlett type film.

[Tiggnutz]

Not sure if I rented it first or saw it on HBO first probably rented it when it was first able to be rented

[Jason]

Looking forward to watching The Gate in October.

Thanks, broskis.

[Reign in Blood]

I was probably 6 or summat, seen it for as long as I can remember.
