Last post by zombie no.one - Today at 03:26:29 PMfor some reason I'd imagine a novel of TERRIFIER to be written in the style of Mandy Harris from THIS COUNTRY's books

Television / Stranger Things. Season 5.
Last post by HappyGilmore - Today at 03:14:13 PMEpisodes 1-4 of Season 5 dropped on Netflix last night. I stayed up til almost 2 this morning watching. Belted out a few profanities.
Linda Hamilton joins the series this time around. Presumably has a bigger role in the back half, because it's an epic fail casting her to not have a sizable role.
Series Finale on New Year's Eve, and I think it's the first time I'm actively staying in to specifically watch a show instead of going to a party or bar.

Yet another low budget Spanish/Italian James Bond knock off, starring American/Canadian bit player Lang Jeffries as secret agent "Mike Drum," assigned to find out who's been killing brilliant scientists across Europe. Like many of these "Eurospy" flicks, it's a poorly dubbed muddle with some nice Euro/Mediterranean scenery, a cool jazzy score, and a lot of hot 60s babes.

Last post by claws - Today at 01:45:57 PMDug up my old review:
The 1989 film version of The Phantom of the Opera, starring Robert Englund (of Freddy Krueger fame), is a visually stylish but tonally conflicted attempt to blend the classic Gothic tragedy of Gaston Leroux with the gory sensibilities of a late-80s slasher film, resulting in a movie with a genuine split personality disorder. While director Dwight H. Little delivers a handsome period piece with elaborate sets and a premise that incorporates elements of the novel often omitted by other adaptations, the need to appeal to a horror audience dictates moments of brutal, R-rated violence, such as the infamous Phantom wearing a "mask" of stitched-on human skin taken from his victims. This uneven mixture of operatic melodrama and visceral horror creates a jarring experience that may not fully satisfy either devoted Phantom purists or hardcore slasher fans, though Englund's unhinged and menacing portrayal of the Phantom as a straight-up villain gives the film a distinct, noteworthy appeal for those interested in a darker, more aggressive take on the legendary character.
Rating back then: 2.5/5 (Flawed but Worthy)
