Seen lots of people come and go over the years 'round here. Just curious...how did you find this place? Me, about 8 years or so ago I typed in a search engine:
"upcoming horror films." There were several sites. Once I clicked here...I became a member shortly after and have been here ever since.

Same story, around the same time frame, and same result for me.
I scratch my head in disbelief when I think about how I've been bumming around here that long. I still remember names like Baby Jane Hudson and Bane. Crazy!

Me too...Skull Kid and AdamAMMP. Over the years I've had about 10 friends join. I guess others just browse and find this place.
What ever happened to AMMP? I remember he was really active here then...nothing.
Wasn't Knight called 'Knightmare' one time or am I off on that?
Funny to think about how much this place has changed. Started posting here when I was 16 and now I'm 23. I spent a decent portion of the 'glory years' of my life talking horror movies and pulling dick and fart jokes out at UHM...and it's always been fun.
I think Fright deserves credit for sticking with this place and building it up the way he has over the years. Also, his tolerance is worth noting because this place, unlike other boards, is pretty good-natured for the most part from both members and mods.

Yep...Knight was Knightmare. Due to complications (:D) he had to change his name.
Props to Fright :coolbeer:
Said it for years...this is the best message board/horror site on the net
F B-D
F B-D...haha. We need to get a list of popular phrases from UHM over the years. That's definitely one from you, as was "What a waste" from just about everyone.

Found it just about the same way y'all did... typed "upcoming horror movies" in a search engine and lo and behold, the first site to pop up was this one. I visited the main site for a couple of years before joining the board though.
One of the things I liked about the site from the start was that when I had a question about a movie listed, Fright was always good about replying to an email.

I actually did almost the same thing except my search ended up with upcoming movies followed by upcoming horror movies.
Upcoming movies was a decent site for awhile but as it became more yahoo affliated. It got weak IMO.
I also remember alot of members names. How they came and went, etc. I havent been here through the whole sites existence. I started back in 2001 sometime as I recall.

I believe that i did a search for upcoming horror movies and noticed that this was the first site so i signed up shortly after then. I've been here since at least 2000 probably about a year since the site first started in 1999 etc.
checking out a porn site and clicked on a pop up and ended up here

It seems funny, but I typed "upcominghorrormovies.com" in the URL several years ago and this site popped up under the same name. Let's just say, it was a luck first try.

Same as everyone else. About 6 or 7 years or so ago I was searching for good horror movie sites and came across this one. Didn't take to long to join the board, went on a posting binge under the name DeAdBoDyMaN for the first 2 or 3 years maybe then I quit coming here until a few months ago when I re-registered. AGAG @ What a Waste, I so remember that phrase.

I was probably looking for leads to play at http://www.hollywoodstockexchange.com
One of the ads made an impression when it randomly screamed every minute or so. When I wanted to find out more about Freddy vs Jason, I remembered the place and spent a while googling to find it again. Joined up that night and have loved it since.
That was around the same time I was leaving another message board due to drama.

12-04-2007, 06:19 PM
About sometime in either 99 or 2000 I was lured here with the promise of candy, soda and fun games. Instead what I got was just a whole lot of sodomy.
Don't remember exactly when I showed up, just about everyone who has replied I remember as being "noobs" most notably koolmike and Knight but it was some time after AshVamp/Il Duce.

I think I was looking for either pictures or news on some horror movie that was coming out soon and found this place. I signed up and been causing trouble ever since. interestingly enough, I have probably been in the most fights on this board and never been banned. Crazy, I think I've been here since 2001
skybrick
12-04-2007, 06:41 PM
Are some bans are for good or is it a time period. Because most of the time I see is cannibal chainsaw, and others getting banned for good. But then I heard that at one point steelba was banned but he is still around here so I am confused.

I feel this is one of the strongest message boards for horror. I tried going on different ones (BD, dvd aficianado etc.) but half the time its a bunch of whining users bickering about which horror icon is bigger. Whose DVD collection is bigger, Whose dick is smaller . WHO GIVES A FUCK.
yes the board can be slow at times, but whenever an interesting topic or movie is posted, we have (mostly) intelligent conversations that give users insight. I'll be around till this board is retired.

I would read the msg board here when it was public a long time ago, thats why I know a little of the past here.

I believe I googled info about a horror film and ended up clicking on a link and ended up here. I found the database of movies pretty cool and informative and I kind of glanced over the message board a bit then finally set up an account here.. been here ever since, it's been a fun 2 years so far.
I would always go to upcomingmovies.com to see what was coming out...then one day i slipped in my tub, banged my head and when I came to I had a dream, a vision. I ran to my computer typed in upcominghorrormovies and my life hasnt been the same since.

Good old Elder.
His presence is missed on the board IMO. He always had something to say for better or worse. Of all members, I didnt think he would respectfully bow out like Edtheripper and a couple others.

I'd bet the house that he still lurks.
As for why he stopped posting, I never found out. He was just here, then not here for months, then he came back for a few months and left again.
The worst thing about Elder is sometimes he couldn't take what he could give, but the best thing about the douche was he did post some pretty funny shit sometimes. It is odd not having him around to push his conservatism here. :lol:

Yeah he was a bitch when it came to doing stuff. He always hated when people posted garbage in the Current Events part, but he'd always post and make stupid responses to other peoples threads.
I still remember that classic fight you guys had over him getting a handjob at a massage parlor. It was funny as hell.
yeah total bs on that one

"upcoming horror films." There were several sites. Once I clicked here...I became a member shortly after and have been here ever since.
Five years ago I was on a mission to gather cow meat for a burger in India and our party was attacked by stranger dancing and singing men and women speaking a language that sounded like baby talk and yiddish they surroudned us and forced us to watch their terrible bollywood films.
Being that my glasses were knocked off and that I'm partially deaf in my right ear I alone managed to survive an onslaught of dancing women with high pitched voices and men trying to pull off a miami vice look in turbans.
While my captors were busy signing an 'I hate pakistan' card I was able to run into the jungle and lived with some wild children who had fun and games.
One child in particular caught my attention as he had a finger growing from his forehead.
After 2 weeks of this strange lifestyle I returned to the US a much humbler, wiser man. For now I knew that in this country there is such a thing as McDonalds and Burger king where I can get my cow meat for a so-so price.
So what I'm trying to say is I cant really remember, but still here after almost 6 years.
