Well since the topic is movies I guess I better chime in,
The Mist-one of the better Stephen King movies in quite some time
John Carpenter's The Thing- still the best Creature Feature
Let the Right One In- a very good story
The Descent-watch it in the dark
The Fly- Old Version & Cronenberg version
Videodrome- more Cronenberg
Evil Dead 2- a classic
Dawn of the Dead- Zack Snyder version- Brains.....
(Old) Outer Limits
Val Lewton movies- Cat People,Isle of the Dead,The Ghost Ship & more-it's like Horror Noir, all classics!
Did someone say "Beef" & "Dust up" well I'm your man! I am glad to see some of you pointing out the hypocrisy here on TC!

Well its about that time of year & I think last years list still holds up, but I would like to add the great 1944 movie
"The Uninvited" with Ray Milland & Ruth Hussey, one of the best Ghost stories ever! sadly it is still not available on DVD.

I was really surprised by The Vampire's Assistant when I saw it a couple months ago. I'd never read the book(s) it was taken from and had assumed the studio was just trying to cash in on another built in audience situation.
I watched it again tonight and dug it as much as I did the first time. It's well acted, has a really cool look to the costumes and sets, and a nice twist on the standard vampire stuff. It's also go some genuinely creepy elements in it.
The Vampire's Assistant really "sucked!" a real waste of some great actors all in secondary roles,lacking any real narrative, cheesy production values, The young leads could not keep a Disney sitcom audience interested for more then a few minutes. I give it one star.
