This preview has been showing at the theaters and on TV for a couple weeks and looks good. Anyone know anything about it? Plays in November. Are they going to charge for each movie or is it just one film?

8 Films To Die For

Doc Daneeka

They look good, like the kind of horror you get today, but with the scares you got in the 70's and 80's. I'm sure they'll be out on DVD in about a month though.

For the latest on the fifth installment in Don Coscarelli's Phantasm saga.

Wonder if they are going to charge $8 a movie. If it's $8 a film then we have to figure out which are the top 2 or 3.

These films sound really crazy. Like nobody would touch them because of the content. Did you think it's just an ad gimic or are these really that creepy?

Joe

I almost think these films are just a gimic like you suggested, I might go see one or let someone else go and pay the money first heh.  But if it is as creepy as they advertise, I would be there with bells on to watch all of em.  Don't know but can't wait to find out.

Scott, I have keeping my eye on this and it plays movies for 3 day, Nov 17-19 to be exact. I check their website and it looks like you have to pay for each. here the site http://www.horrorfestonline.com/index.html

There is a listing of theaters on the website.  I haven't checked in in awhile, but none were local to me.  I'm in Texas and there were only two theaters - El Paso (not a chance.  I could drive home to Minnesota in about the same time! haha.) and Edinburg.  I think that is the other side of Dallas, and about 2.5 hours from me.  So that's a maybe.  If I can convince someone to go with me.

They're playing in Huntsville according to the link, so it's actually a possibility I could go, say if I stayed with family there and made a weekend of it. Nice to have the option anyway.
blah blah stuff blah blah obscure pop culture reference blah blah clever turn of phrase blah blah bad pun blah blah bad link blah blah zzzz.....

It's playing in Jacksonville, here in NC.  I'm debating over going.  If I do, I'd like to see all 8 films in a row, and just make a day out of it.  I don't know if that is an option or not.  I don't want to drive 2hrs each way just to see a few of the films.  I'd rather be there for 16 hours.

Skaboi, sccording to the site, they are playing the films 3 a day. I had thought about doing a marathon for fun and had looked into it but I saw it looks like 3 movies per day, shown twice, and paid for as separate movies. I would love to see them though but if you can only see a few...how do you choose which ones and not feel like you will be making a mistake and missing the really good ones? lol

Odinn,

I'll pass then man.  If it was a one shot thing with all of the films being shown in order, then I'd be there.  Otherwise, with the films being shown 3 at a time.....I'll skip it.  I'll wait till the DVDs of the films hit.....I doubt they're much good anyway.

I was thinking pretty much the same thing. Wait for the DVD's to make it to Ballbuster.

I keep seeing that ad about "Each year, there are films produced, that are too scary for the general public" and it makes me think, huh?  Wouldn't they just edit out whatever wasn't suitable for "the general public"?  I mean, that's what they do with most movies to get whatever rating they're after.  I can't imagine a film not being released simply because it's too scary.

It sounds a lot more to me like "Each year, there are films produced, that are so bad the studio doesn't even bother to release them".  Until they come up with a publicity campaign for them.

Who knows, I may be wrong.  Just what it sounds like to me.
