He is going to travel to a land of thieves and ghosts?? And he seems very happy with this? He is an odd character, that is for sure!

If that's the one I'm thinking of, we've been over that before and it doesn't count. It's like putting Hot Shots down for an action movie.

About 20 minutes into From Beyond.

This is a movie I've only seen once before, and I don't remember being that fond of it, though thus far, I don't see why not. Fantastic atmosphere so far, and a nice surprise in Ken Foree, who I forgot was in this.

That doesn't matter. It's not horror, at all. It's just making fun of slasher movies. It's a screwball comedy parody, made completely intentional for gags. There's not even gross/shocking gore to cover their tracks.

I don't think you clicked the link. :P It's a different Scary Movie, one that predates the parody movie by nine years.

I made my "Watching next - Scary Movie" post to fuck with people to see who took the bait. Glad it was you. Thanks for playing. :P

Seriously, though, this 1991 Scary Movie isn't half bad. Might be down Havok's alley if he's yet to have seen it.

Not sure what I'm watching after work, but I actually did plan on watching the VP debate, so that'll put me behind a little more.

Can't go wrong with Larry Cohen, I hope. :P
