Nonureva Really Surprised!

ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

Humbersi The first must-see film of the year.

Roman Sampson One of the most extraordinary films you will see this year. Take that as you want.

jacobjohntaylor1 This a very scary show. It has great stories. It also has great acting. It also has great special effects. I would not say that it is a 7.7 that is king of overrating it. It is a great show. I give 6 out 10 it is very good. But I would say 7.7 is just hyping it. If you want get sacred this show will not let you down. It is scarier then silence off the lambs very could be. The original A Nightmare on elm street from 1984 is better. The original Friday the 13th from 1980 is better. Halloween is also better. But still this a great show. Very scary. The Exorcist is also better. But still a great show see it. It is a lot better then the 2001 movie of Hannibal.

Woodyanders Since this show was made independently instead of under the auspices of a major television network, the producers behind this program had more opportunities to tell an often interesting and usually entertaining array of unusual stories that were more dependent on atmosphere and plenty of clever and quirky writing over big name guest stars and flashy special effects. Moreover, this series gave viewers a rare chance to see such character actors as Vic Tayback, Danny Aiello, Keenan Wynn, Eddie Bracken, and Barnard Hughes really sink their teeth into juicy lead roles. Better still, the most memorable episodes benefited tremendously from the presence of a neat and novel monster: The tiny little creature from "Inside the Closet," the titular lethal spirit in "The Cutty Black Sow," the noise-eating vacuum cleaner-like contraption in "Hush." The frequently use of a single set due to budgetary constraints tended to work in this show's favor, with a strong sense of suffocating claustrophobia providing an extra unsettling edge. Granted, this series did suffer from admittedly threadbare production values and the comic episodes were decidedly hit or miss, but overall it was an extremely enjoyable show that offered proof positive that offbeat stories and inspired idiosyncratic writing can and do count a great deal more than a bunch of fancy-schmancy tricked-up razzle-dazzle slickness.

poe426 It was late 1978, and HALLOWEEN and DAWN OF THE DEAD had just exploded across movie screens all over the world. Things were never going to be the same again. Both movies were inspirational to those of us who had no money but ideas aplenty. Unfortunately, the camcorder was still several years away from easy access. Some of us took up our pens and began to write. I wrote a number of letters to the horror magazines of the day: FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND, FANTASTIC FILMS, FANGORIA, STARLOG, et al, and was gratified to see many of them in print. I even placed two short stories (one in FANGORIA and one in STARLOG), both in 1980. Prior to "the double event," as I came to think of it, I contacted FAMOUS MONSTERS OF FILMLAND editor Forrest J. Ackerman, who put me in touch with QUASAR editor Bob Michelucci, who literally handed my script for a zombie film (titled DAY OF THE DEAD) to DAWN OF THE DEAD writer-director George A. Romero. Romero would eventually turn down my script "due to legal considerations," but he was kind enough to return it, along with a note of apology.Years later, the pilot for TALES FROM THE DARKSIDE aired. That very night, I typed up three scripts and mailed them to Romero and Company the very next day. Along with the scripts, I sent two or three short story anthologies I'd self-published over the years (GENRE #1 and #2 and NIGHTFALL #1). (My "ace in the hole," as I saw it, was an episode titled VAMPYRE, about an undercover cop who went all the way and was a possible pilot episode for a spin-off series. It was deemed "too expensive.") Again, Romero let me down gently, though I followed up with three more scripts that story editor Tom Allen kindly rejected. For me, to have written for a series overseen by George Romero would've been the highlight of a life otherwise lacking in highlights- but I did end up with a letter from The Man that maintains a place of honor in a display case to this day; a letter in which he says (regarding my stories and artwork that I submitted): "You have a wide-ranging imagination and a wider-ranging talent." For some reason, I feel really good today.

krice247 Could somebody please help me out? I'm looking for a movie and I thought it was from Tales From The Dark Side The movie but when I looked it wasn't it. Well, the movie I think is a trilogy, (but I can only remember two)the first one is about a man (I think he was a doctor)and his mistress and they kill her husband and put him in the deep freezer down in the basement. The man tells the lady to stay there in the house for the night and he'll be back and she hears moans and groans coming from the basement! that's all I can remember about that one and all I can remember about the other one was it had something to do with an old women and an old man and black cats. If anybody can think of the name of this movie please let me know.Thanks!
