Sure as shit hope so, beings a light wind would knock it down.
You have to admit the decapitation scene is fucking hilarious. I couldn't stop laughing for a solid five minutes. Shit just kept getting funnier as the dude went home and then the parents reaction...good stuff. The rest wasn't anything special, IMO, but it was better than most of the garbage to come out in recent years.

You're not alone there. John Wick 3 was nowhere near as good as the first two.

Master of Puppets is the opening song playing while they're killing zombies at the White House.

Little Monsters was kinda shitty. There's a fuckload of singing I could have done without, and the first thirty minutes or so is just there to show how shitty of a person the main guy is. It tries to be a comedy, but fails with the exception of a few scenes near the end. The actual zombie stuff is alright, but getting to it is fucking draining.

Maybe Resurrection should just be viewed as fun or summat, but I just remember thinking they jumped the shark and got too outlandish with the plot and shiz, Cloned in the future and becomes the queen crapping out a baby and all this.

Ugh, Nightmare Honeymoon (1974) was so much more drama than horror. I still think it's horror, but god, what an utter disappointment. At least there was one solid performance in it (John Beck).

Yeah the plot is stupid but the cast is too notch with good kills. It's more fun than good but enjoyable just the same. Ron Perlman and Brad Dourif in the same movie come on that's gold.

No, neither of you have waxed lyrical about anything new lately.

Felt like it took a few films to get myself going but now I’m actually enjoying it. Might even make the 31 if this keeps up.

Question for D - you have a Lair of the White Worm on your list from 1976, but the only one I know (at least that comes to mind) is the late 80's one, so I was wondering if it went under another title or something.

Think it’s just a year error. 1988 per IMDb and was on Prime.
