Recent Movie Purchases, part 2

[pennywise37]

 i see someone bought (1981)'s Final Exam,i watched that oh it i think was a couple weeks ago and it was one of the worst films i've ever seen.

WOW was it bad, as for ones i bought i bought The Omen films on blu-ray though the case is bent i just didn't feel like going back to wall mart when i think that was the last copy that they had i think? the set is all 4 films including the remake which i have not seen, i've only seen the first 2 films.

Final Conflict i actually have the book of and i think i have the book for the others too but i just have never gotten around to actually read them.
how bad is the remake anyways?

Also, I actually bought a digital copy of this on YouTube, since it was only about a dollar more than the rental price and a Blu-ray is not out yet:

I hadn't seen Candyman (1992) in about 25 years, so I ordered it off of Amazon and watched it again the other night. It was scarier in the '90s but it is still a very well done movie. The acting is what really drives this movie and I love the whole urban folklore angle that it takes. Tony Todd is at his best in this movie, second only to his best performance in Night Of The Living Dead (1990). I didn't know until the other day that Virginia Madsen is Michael Madsen's little sister.

I bought "Night Owl" (1990) with John Leguizamo.  While he's not the main character, he has a major part.   Apparently it took 2 years to film.  The sad part is, it's ALMOST a great movie. The script needed one more draft before they started shooting IMHO. It's a vampire movie... theoretically. However, the rules of the vampire are inconsistent. This makes the movie confusing. It almost could be taken that the main character is just a psychopathic killer using vampirism as an excuse...but that doesn't come across either since the script has minor inconsistencies in regards to what exactly is going on.

HABIT (1995) explores the theme weather the killer is actually killing.. or an actual vampire without too much confusion.   

However, NIGHT OWL (1990) is still worth watching.

i watched all the candy man movies years ago and i think the only one that was at least decent was the last one but Tony Todd wasn't in that one and as much as i love Tony Todd and he is damn good in those films that's not even a question, but those are terrible movies i had such high hopes for the 1st film but i thought it was terrible but it was better than the sequels i can't remember which one was worse the 2nd or the 3rd but maybe it's cause i've seen it all before cause it's the same thing as Bloody Mary the old tale and Supernatural did it better in season 1 than Candyman did i think but again to each their own i suppose,

let's see last week i think it was? i bought Captain America: Civil wars and it was one of the weaker films i thought not a terrible film but i think it was 7/10 i gave it. Guardians of the Galaxy 2 (2017) is one i bought awhile back, 'Thor' (2011) and it's sequel Dark World (2013) i've been trying to get all the Marvel films on 4K and i've got 9  more to get before i have them all.  the last Spider-man film i bought as well but i'm not watching that until i see the 1st one and i don't have that one yet.

Thanks, but I've seen it many times. Never with the William S. Burroughs narration, though.

i missed that i see someone bought "The Devil's Nightmare (1971) i thought that was a decent movie actually.  i have not seen that Lugosi film though, i hope it's better than "The Devil Bat' (1941) that one is WOW painfully bad.
