As you have seen there have been many Stephen King adaptions mentioned above such as The Shining, Carrie and Misery. George A Romero, I believe, is the most recurring director. This was the hardest year for me. I made alot of painful choices (*cough* Army of Darkness *cough*) but im pretty sure this is a helpful list for those looking for a horrific time.
hey there, thanks for following my blog! thats so kind of you. when i read your profile, i was slightly uncomfortable that a 14 year old was following my blog. i was like oh shit, is someone going to call the pedo-bear on me!?!?! anyway, i'm following you too. i dig this site and i'm thrilled you love horror movies too. thats so funny you put the exorist and alien as your 1 and 2 cause thats so what i would have done. then my 3 would have to be that mutant chronicles movie with the zombie lobster claw people and that hot guy from puinsher.

the fight scenes are AMAZING!!! they zombies are so gory!! i loved it!! i'm not really even sure what the storyline is about but fight scenes are brilliant. its got a sci-fi futuristic, WWII, religious faith vibe going. the trailer donesn't do it justice.
thanks for thinking my blog is funny.
a haha! I thought about that too Sara!
ReplyDeleteNoah- Ur the youngest blogger I've seen- but u should be proud of that. I couldn't have done it as well as you when I was 14!!
--and is 'the decent' a must see?! I didn't see it cuz the preview scared me so much...but I can't get it out of my head that I want to see it.
LOL thanx Pen Pen. Yay im the youngest blogger...
ReplyDeleteThe Decent is scary especially if your a claustraphobic (secret shame). The whole film takes place in little tunnels under the surface.
