Well like you said it was slightly weird. I think that in the end it didn't really work, a lot didn't add up. The three ghosts killed people, they killed the fat dude, I assume, and they definitely killed Mike so why did they need the construction guy to kill people for them? Why did the woman jump out of the window? He could see the future so why didn't he see himself getting killed? Or did he?And what was Keaton's wife warning him about anyway? In the end she got him killed! If he'd not listened to her in the beginning none of that shit would have happened, he'd have been fine! And that's the moral of the story don't listen to your dead wife if she warns you about anything through your broken down TV! Yeah, I watched the dvd commentary with Keaton and the director. The director was saying that the "Go! Go now!" balls from Keaton's wife meant "Get out of there!"....well, why the f**k didn't she say THAT instead?!!! The blind medium that was BRIEFLY in there explained what the movie MEANT to do i.e. Keaton was misreading the messages and he didn't know what he was getting into. I think the construction guy was in the same position as Keaton (as a result of the messages) EXCEPT that the contruction guy was doing evil instead of good. But yeah, that angle didn't work. The idea of ghostly messages through tech is interesting but yeah, overall the movie didn't work all that well. What I wanted to know was how did the fat guy know from what we heard and saw that it was Keaton's wife. It could have been anyone talking about anything and anyone. It would have taken him months to figure it out, maybe years, but he was right there about two days after they found the body. Yeah, I don't know exactly. But Keaton figured stuff out pretty damn quickly. And so did that detective at the end of the flick...hell, he figured out basically everything in about 10 minutes. One thing is certain: that fat guy had the "I'm going to die in this film" sign on his forehead from when Keaton first confronted him outside his office. I thought Keaton was gonna kick his ass to death when he got across that street! Speaking of Keaton and since you're on a movie kick at the moment, go watch Pacific Heights. That flick will make you wanna kick Keaton's ass. Interesting little thriller which also stars Matthew Modine & Melanie Griffith. Yeah I have seen that a few times and Keaton is at his devious best as the cocky home-wrecking villain. It may be worth watching again, it's been a while, certainly since the 90s... I have to admit I kind of sided with Keaton towards the end, I think it's Matthew Modine, he bugs the shit out of me at times...I couldn't see Mel and Modine as a couple really either...good flick though...You're probably still jealous & upset that Modine got it on with that hot babe in VisionQuest.

treeduck Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 A Vincent Price triple bill: The Last Man on Earth (colourized version), Diary of a Madman and Tales of Terror. One thing about Vincent Price, he often plays a man who's grieving his dead wife. He plays a guy like this in all three of these films and also in The Tomb of Ligeia and the Pit and the Pendulum.

Enemy Within 77 Posted October 31, 2012 Share Posted October 31, 2012 Halloween I & II and Halloween III: Season of the Witch I know it's a pretty unpopular opinion, but Season of the Witch is my fave of the sequels! I for one loved the fact that it was a completely different film/story and it would've been interesting if they continued doing that in future films- like Carpenter and Hill originally wanted.

treeduck Posted November 1, 2012 Share Posted November 1, 2012 Halloween I & II (2007/2009) [director's cuts] The first installment is a mildly entertaining horror flick, but it's not really a proper Halloween film. It lacks the atmosphere and suspense of the original. It also spends too long on the early years so that by the they get to the main part of the story it all seems rushed and the pacing, which is important is completely ruined. Malcolm McDowell is good as Dr Loomis, Brad Dourif too and Tyler Mane makes an effective Michael Myers but the rest of the main characters are objectionable versions of their original counterparts. And why does every other incidental character in a Rob Zombie film turn out to be a redneck pervert, a demented rube, or an annoying bitchy slut? Halloween II is where things really go wrong though. All the main characters here go off on some weird tangent; Michael Myers grows a ZZ Top beard and starts seeing his mother on a white horse (a blatant excuse for Zombie to have his wife in the film even though her character was killed off in the first film), Dr Loomis turns into a cynical hack author who goes on a book tour signing books for loony fans and making appearances on lame talk shows, Lorie becomes more and more obnoxious, and has a grating voice that seems to say "f**k you" after every other phrase, by halfway you're almost praying that the Shape will finish her off, meanwhile her dad turns into a refugee from a Grateful Dead concert. Most of the rest of the characters are the usual gruesome rustic assholes I was talking about earlier. We're a long way from John Carpenter country by now...
