Boy, is that a classic I wish I could enjoy more. Last time I saw it (and in fact, the time I saw it before that), only a couple of sequences did it for me, and I was otherwise disinterested.

Hope you enjoy it, though.

Thats an A+ film for me, just about flawless. My only nitpick is not even the films fault. The guy who composed the theme song for Curb Your Enthusiasm clearly ripped off the theme song from Eyes Without a Face and every time I heard it it took me out of the film. Still one of the better films I've seen in years.

This was a lot of fun. Nice sleazy atmosphere and quality gore (that eye-meets-razorblade and that broken-glass-bottle-meets-vagina scenes were what I call scenes of moral authority). Definitely need to endeavor to check out the rest of the Fulci stuff I've not seen yet.

I watched it a few years ago and thought it was outstanding. I need to revisit.

You obviously didn't care for The Funhouse. I was surprised by your grade because I really enjoy it

I'm with my homeboi J-dawg on this one. The Funhouse has a great atmosphere, but it's such a sluggish movie, and while I still need to watch it again so I can write a review on it, I don't remember being all that fond of it during any previous viewings (and I think I've seen it twice, perhaps three times).

It was more of a letdown than anything.

Atmosphere was awesome, for sure. But yeah, very sluggish and boring.

Burnt Offerings is creepy, will always be creepy. My last movie of the night will be Halloween at Aunt Ethel's. On another note, you would not think I would have a problem
with this, but I am finding it difficult to find movies I have already watched that I have not watched in the last four years here, I would rather not repeat myself too much.
I will keep looking.
