Well, I don't care for his version of Halloween, but I do think Halloween II is worse. That movie legit pissed me off at the beginning. :P

I actually like House of 1000 Corpses (though it took me something like three, perhaps four viewings to really appreciate it). Haven't seen anything else by him, to my knowledge (never seen 3 from Hell, 31, Lords of Salem) though I've been interested in seeing The Lords of Salem for some time now.

i actually kind of like 31, but it's still pretty much trash, regardless. :P

Finishing the night off with The Grudge. I sort of get the sense it won't be anywhere near as enjoyable as Dracula 2000, alas.

I've been saying it since I was 6: Monster Squad > Goonies

Typo I'm sure, should be 2017, I think he was hitting the bottle hard with double shots when editing.
less a typo and more oversight. I thought I typed it, but guess not. Copied and pasted probably from Exorcist.

Did I? I recall loving the camaraderie, but not sure if I called it "the greatest", but I would agree they're in the conversation. Along with The Squad for sure.

Edit: I later see Jason took credit. I was gonna say "I know my memory gets wonky but damn" lol.

I get the sense that this is one I would've appreciated if I had seen it as a kid. Is that true?

The title track on the bluray menu is bitchin.
I spoke to Composer Bruce Broughton a couple weeks ago. He's still working and using our paper to sketch out his score stuff. Cool dude.

You gotta properly join the squad now. I think D and I are the only ones to have em, but we got red shirts with yellow text that says "Sutter Cane Rules", only initiated horror nerds may apply.
ahahahaha, fuck yeah

He also has Evil Dead coming out in 1983. Must have had Christine on the brain.
I used the menu page's date for it. I know it's got like 5 different years for it's release, so I figure fuck it at this point. 1983 does come up a lot for Evil Dead, if memory serves me right, that was the official wide release, but it was hitting the circuit as early as 81 (IMDB's listing).

Edit: even Metacritic has it down as 1983.

Almost considered a lower grade for Deer Camp 86, but I have to give it some credit for the quote from the token black guy: "I'm going back to Detroit where it's safe!", so it earned a "+" for that chuckle.
