The Ghoul was the Best! He will be at The Redford Theatre in Detroit Sunday November 25th. He will be hosting the movie "The Tingler". MAGA

My birthday is 11/14; this will be my birthday present to myself. Thanks for the post! I hope he has some Ghoul merchandise. I always wanted a froggy handkerchief.

I hope to be there myself if I can get back to town for Thanksgiving that weekend.

He had a ton of his merchandise when I saw him last year.

Good Luck, and enjoy!

Does 1989’s original “Tremors” qualify?

Omen...or Silence of the Lambs. In both cases, originals but zero for the sequels

In the book it described from Kane’s point of view his encounter with the alien seed “crab” as its acid ate away the faceplate of his spacesuit, then forced an appendage into his mouth. He fought all he could, but it was too strong and he lost consciousness as he felt it descend down his throat.

Just reading that made me cringe.

The book has scenes that the movie did not. If you read it, do so by candlelight with a dark house. fun.

I hope sometime you share some of your experiences perhaps on some thread related to that subject. I am truly interested.

I think a thread should be started ASAP tonight. My story, objects moving on their own, doors slamming, footsteps up and down the hall, strange infestations of bugs and rodents....

The Tenant / Le Locataire. By Roman Polanski. The scariest movie I ever saw.

My daughter just posted a picture of her sitting on The Exorcist steps.

The only truly, truly scary horror movies are the plausible ones


Which is why The Tenant is mine. The horrors of mental illness. I haven’t watched it in 20 years and don’t really want to!

Yes, she was unearthly beautiful whether Blonde or Auburn(I prefer red, myself)

If only she didn't marry the deviant Polanksi she would still be alive

If I was that snowman, I'd be a puddle of water(she's so "hot")

When “A Stranger Calls” was absolutely terror for me.

I cracked up when the guy , was it the sheriff, said, “well, they’re dead.”... and yay! for mentioning The Ghoul!!!

I enjoyed the first "Dead" movie. I particularly liked that the "posse" mostly did the right thing(absent shooting the heroic black guy that did the common sense thing while others deserved to be "ghoul cuisine")

Which brings me make this final point. The movie correctly labeled the undead as "ghouls"Ghouls are the undead creatures who haunt cemeteries to feast upon the newly interned dead and occasionally a human who foolishly strayed into the crypts at night.

Zombies are usually the living whom was assumed to be dead but usually just comatose(whether by magic or potion) whom "resurrect" and at the bidding of an evil master(usually an corrupt living human but sometimes at the behest of an evil spirit)In either case, the classic zombie never consumed the flesh of the dead nor the living.

Wish Hollywood would get back to the traditional zombie history but I doubt they ever would.

She might’ve ended up at that party even had she not married him. I don’t know if Polanski was a creep/deviant before that, but I’m sure between his horrible upbringing and having his stunning wife and unborn child murdered in such a public and Satanic spectacle probably effed him up for life. It certainly would for me (though that didn’t give him carte blanche to drug and sodomize a young girl).

I was working nights.....and reading The Shining of all things. I’d get home about 2:30 or 2:45 am and start reading because I couldn’t put it down after reading during the day before work. Don’t think I slept for a week. Lol
