Return of the Living Dead - one of my favorites :smile: (http://horrornews.net/wp-content/uploads/2010/09/the-return-of-the-living-dead-5.jpg) Title: Re: Box Office Horror Flashback: 1985 Post by: RCMerchant on June 19, 2012, 04:08:13 PM Iv'e seen all of these-except fpr the DOCTOR AND THE DEVILS.
The NEW KIDS is kinda obscure-I saw it -gee-I cant recall! Mebbe I had the vhs or something. It's pretty good! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HYSOlC2s8Gg Title: Re: Box Office Horror Flashback: 1985 Post by: JaseSF on June 19, 2012, 06:02:07 PM I've seen 10 of these titles, the best of which IMO is Return of the Living Dead but Fright Night, PLifeforce (somewhat reminds one of Quatermass and the Pit) and Gremlins are all faves. How did heck did Nightmare on Elm Street 2 top this list? (although I can't say too much as I myself own that movie on DVD). Is The Doctor and the Devils any good? Heard talk about that one in the past.

It's a dark, grim gothic drama but its been ages since I've seen it. I thought it was alright back then, but I definitely need to rewatch. |
