Bad Movies / Re: movies that namecheck anot...
Last post by claws - Today at 08:18:37 AMMy ranking from best to worst:
1. The House on Sorority Row (1982)
A stylish, atmospheric standout with real visual craft and a killer reveal that actually pays off. Its dreamlike finale and polished campus setting give it a prestige edge over most early‑80s slashers.
2. The Dorm That Dripped Blood (1982)
Bleak, grainy, and committed to its nihilistic tone, this one earns its place through sheer mood. The off‑season campus emptiness and grim finale make it one of the era's more haunting deep cuts.
3. Graduation Day (1981)
Chaotic, energetic, and weirdly charming, it's a slasher that sprints through its own gimmicks with jittery editing and personality. Messy, yes, but unmistakably memorable.
4. Final Exam (1981)
A slow‑burn campus slasher that leans into normalcy before breaking it apart. Its plain, almost faceless killer gives the violence a disturbingly everyday quality.
5. Splatter University (1984)
Cheap, uneven, and stitched together with abrupt pacing, this one struggles to find a consistent tone. The twist lands, but the journey is rough and often incoherent.
Sorry for going off topic. Please continue with the namechecks

Last post by claws - Today at 06:15:50 AMQuote from: zombie no.one on Today at 02:47:45 AMsome of these seem to be crossovers between a character being namechecked, and that character's had a movie named after them therefore it's a 'movie' namecheck... not sure how to deal with that aspect tbh.
Yeah, its a weird example even though he said the title 'Leprechaun' within a sentence imitating Warwick Davis's Leprechaun character.
