I love Ghostbusters. But it’s really more of a comedy.

Some great actors are in that movie.

Ackroyd, Murray, and the black guy. And then the little guy. And of course, Sigourney Weaver.

The Youtube video was better than the movie.

”The Tingler.”

I’ve read about that one, but have never seen it. Isn’t that the movie where, when it was shown in the theater, they wired up the seats to give moviegoers little electrical shocks at certain points in the film?

Yes. When the tingler had gotten loose into a movie theater full of teens.

Okay. I’ll give it a shot but Friday The 13th pretty much cured me of watching horror movies.

#19. Come on everybody. POLTERGEIST instead of “Fright Night” though Amanda Berse was pretty hot for a second.

My wife loves “Silver Bullet”. I thought it was stupid.

Also, how about “American Werewolf in London” or “Wolfen”?

Alien was the only one to get me going as an adult.

I slept with the light on for a week after seeing Alien.

House on Haunted Hill (1959). Scared me more than any other movie.

I was going to say House on Capitol Hill. Pelosi is much more scarier than Vince Price.

Clearly a satirical trailer/review poking fun at the pseudointellecual movie and movie reviewer industry.

FROM WIKIPEDIA (emphasis mine):

The film captures A YEAR Foster spent with a wild common octopus... My Octopus Teacher, executive produced by Ellen Windemith, took TEN YEARS to make.

Actually it’s Love and Tentacles from the satwcomic.com website, although the author may have been inspired by Thermians...
