it will differ from the original by being shit.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Quite likely.

 

[Wrathchild]

Far more enjoyable than The Exorcist...good stuff.

You're quite mad, dear boy. Nothing against The Exorcism Of Emily Rose, because I want to see it one of these days, but I fully expect it to pale in comparison to the mighty Exorcist. That is not just a great horror film but a great film in its own right.

As for The Omen, I was in a rotten mood when I watched the first one and didn't enjoy it as much as I hoped to. I'll have to give it another chance, along with 2 and 3.

What is wrong with you Wrathy? Jack Palance's daughter jumping out of a window with a noose around her neck, Dr Who getting impaled by a church spire, David Warner being decapitated by plate glass... How could you not enjoy that?

 

[Goreripper]

Oh yeah, and in The Omen 2: a guy getting cut in half by the counterweight of a lift and another fellow is crushed between two rail cars. Gotta love the inventiveness behind the deaths in these films.

 

[Icarus]

Hmm I need to hire these films heh.

 

[Wrathchild]

What is wrong with you Wrathy?...How could you not enjoy that?

I told you I was in a shitty mood at the time, moping over life in general and a woman I didn't stand a snowball's chance in hell of being with.

Looking back, it would never have worked out. Her grammar was appalling! How I could have fallen for someone who said "brang" I'll never know. Nice set o' funbags though .

Gotta love the inventiveness behind the deaths in these films.

They ruined it with the ending to the trilogy though... WORST...ENDING...EVER!

John Jarratt's performance was fantastic.

Looks like it could be the start of big things... apparently Tarantino is adamant on using Jarratt in an upcoming project

Nothing against The Exorcism Of Emily Rose, because I want to see it one of these days, but I fully expect it to pale in comparison to the mighty Exorcist.

Watch it before you start throwing around such comments.

Last night I watched Dark Water, from the writer of The Ring. Uses many of the same ideas, and pales in comparison, but was still worth watching I guess.

Japanese or American version? I'm not a big fan of remakes. The original was alright.

Last week I watched The Exorcism Of Emily Rose, which was rather good.

Yeah it's not a bad film. Seen better, seen worse.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

The American version. The Remake of The Ring crapped on the original, but the remake of The Grudge was fucked beyond belief. I haven't seen the original Dark Water, but I assume the transfer lies somewhere in between.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

I watched Mortuary last night. Was a decent B grade horror, but nothing special overall. I rather enjoyed the middle section where the action really heats up, but the ending was generic.

 

[Priest of Evil]

Revisited Romero's The Crazies on the weekend, i dont know why I did that to myself...

What was that Omen rip off back in the 80s, Holocaust 2000?

 

[Winmar]

While it's more of a thriller than a horror, I watched In the Cut last night. Pretty good film. I don't usually like Meg Ryan, but when she's naked I give her the thumbs up.

 

[Priest of Evil]

Thumbs up where?

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Exactly what I was thinking. Maybe I should see that film also.

 

[Winmar]

Anywhere she likes.

 

[Celestial-Todd]

We watched The Exorcism of Emily Rose over the weekend.... I actually liked it better then The Exorcist!

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Exactly!
