Uhh... I'm weak to this movie. Scared me so bad the first time I watched it, and it still gets to me a few years later.
Everybody has a different type of "scary" movie, and for me it's creepy Asian movies like Ju-on. The first time I saw this one was with my uncle (being so absorbed in this movie/the pillow I was holding, it barely registered that I wasn't alone) and a few scenes even scared the hell out of him.
Some people prefer the first (which also freaks me out) but I feel that this one has the bigger scares.
I'm glad that a movie has had such an effect on me.
Such a campy '80s flick... a type of film that I can't stay away from.
Not too bad, even if the robots were a little too stupid. You've got the over exaggerated acting, the typical horror kill list, some nudity thrown in, even a short appearance by Dick Miller (Gremlins).
But it's quite a short movie and is kind of stale instead of being fun to watch.
Excellent zombie movie; I see it as a sort of evolution of Day of the Dead in terms of ideas. I've watched this a bunch of times.
If you've progressed from Night of the Living Dead all the way up to Land, then I urge you to stop here: Diary and Survival ain't pretty, which is a damn shame.
Wanted to like it, but it is a bad movie (there's no denying that, despite how much you like Romero). I think it's even downhill from Diary, though my memory is thankfully hazy on that film.
I'd love to see him do one last big budget dead movie, make us all forget about Diary and Survival. If not, then I'll continue to believe that Land was the dead finale.
Had a great laugh the first time I watched it in the cinema with friends, but watching it on dvd I just didn't laugh at all and really failed to see what I liked about it the first time around. Must have been in a really, really good mood.
Fun '80s horror which I think surpasses the first movie. This one mimics the previous one to such an extent that it's like they redid it as opposed to making a true sequel, but it worked.
Kind of along the lines of Evil Dead and Evil Dead 2.
I always hear this mentioned in the lists of greatest zombie movies, but I really don't think it deserves the mentions.
Sure, it has the few memorable scenes that are cool to watch, however it is a dull movie. Even as a fan of zombie movies, I couldn't bring myself close to thinking that Zombie deserves its reputation.

Expected better; didn't really deliver on the scares and it got silly by the end. Somewhat enjoyable though.Movie comment on Ju-on 2

Movie comment on The Tunnel
Oneironaut
Decent, but lacks scares.Movie comment on Scream 4
Oneironaut
Worst of the series by far. Don't know what Craven was thinking.Only reason I want a Scream 5 is because I want the series to end on a high note.
Movie comment on Prison Break: The Final Break
Oneironaut
An abomination. If you want your view of the series to be murdered and buried in a shallow grave, then this is for you.The series had a terrific ending; "The Final Break" ruins it.
Seriously, avoid this. Not even checking this to my profile's list because I don't want to be reminded about it.
Movie comment on The Godfather

Took me a while to finally get around to watching it, and I'm glad that I enjoyed it.It won't quite make it amongst my favourites, but still very impressive nonetheless.
Movie comment on The Rugrats Movie

Brings back memories, heck I'd even consider watching it again soon.Movie comment on Dead of Night
Oneironaut
It's okay, kind of dull at the start and by the time it gets interesting it's pretty much over.Slightly difficult to find but it's on youtube as of the time posting this.

Had a good laugh at one scene where they're watching a particular movie. Apart from that, not much.Movie comment on Pineapple Express

Felt too grounded for a movie with such a great post-apocalyptic setting. Worth a watch, I suppose.Oh and don't read any further down in the comments... there be spoilers lurking.
Movie comment on Star Trek

As somebody who has never really watched any Star Trek, I thought this was great and introduced me to it fairly well.Movie comment on The Woman in Black
Oneironaut
Boring, ineffective ghost story with a stupid ending.Movie comment on Paura nella città dei morti viventi

Avoid.Movie comment on Mirrors

Actually pretty good. Wasn't sure if it was Kiefer Sutherland's kind of role, but he pulled it off well.Movie comment on The Witches

Movie comment on The Hills Have Eyes
Oneironaut
Not one to normally say this - especially when it comes to horror movies - but I enjoyed the remake more.I saw the remake before this, and if I could change things, I'd prefer to watch this version first.
All in all, decent enough even if a tad goofy. Not particularly fond of Craven's work, but I do appreciate his contribution to the genre.

Overrated (and I hate saying that).

Hilariously bad, even better to watch with friends.Movie comment on Westworld
Oneironaut
Absolutely brilliant, just saw this for the first time. Great mix of sci-fi and western, definitely worth a watch.Think I'll be adding this one to the collection.
