Thought the first was good for what it was. Unfortunately the Smile movies seem to be the modern movies that will carry the most weight with the general public as far as which horror movies will be considered classics.

When Evil Lurks will be a classic in my book. :P

I'm talking overall popularity. More peeps will have seen Smile than When Evil Lurks. Smile just seems to the "in" franchise at the moment. It's like actually making fetch happen. :P
