Was it really 50 miles away? Guess I never caught that, would agree. I ain't driving all that way just for a shitty lake and it's raft.

Yeah, it's a really quick line at the beginning of the bit while they're driving.

I guess it IS Arizona, and the college pool probably has staff that wouldn't want them doing certain things (weed, orgy, whatever they planned), but still, 50 miles out of the way?

I've never read the book myself, and to be honest, I don't know if I even knew the book had sequels.

I mean, I'm not saying it's a good movie; still gave it a below average rating, but until I revisit the first movie, which perhaps I was too harsh on, yeah, it's the best of the four, in my view.

with all of the asian remakes we've had, i'm surprised that audition was not among them. anyways that's my next watch.

I'm onto Phantasm II

Good point. It is one of the more well known ones as well.

Movie #88. Gonna try hard to get in 12 more before the end of the month. Really wanna hit 100. I shattered my old record already

do you have the twelve picked out?

A conflict I've always had in my head but never asked it here...

What's a better double header: Phantasm and Phantasm II or Creepshow and Creepshow 2

No. But I'm kind of aiming for upper echelon. So The Exorcist and Black Christmas are absolutely gonna be included. Creepshow and Creepshow 2 as well.

i would say that the first two phantasm films are more consistent quality. creepshow 2 doesn't hold up as well as the original to me, despite the raft being awesome.

Without refreshing my memory on the movies, I would also say Phantasm and Phantasm II. I honestly love all the stories in Creepshow 2. The Raft is probably my least favorite of the three. Lol.

upper echelon has to include one of romero's dead trilogy, right?

Yes. I need to refresh on his original 3. I haven't decided if I'm gonna revisit them all or not. But those are up there as well.

I'm not done with new watches yet

i have at least one more i'm hopeful for.

I bought a bitchin Dead & Buried 4k/bluray box set on ebay on Wednesday or Thursday last week I think and the guy barely shipped it today it looks like. Guess if I wanna watch it I'll have to pull out the DVD. Damn.

does that mean dead and buried is upper echelon too? cool!
