Looking forward to seeing "Psychos in Love"

...sounds like my nextdoor neighbors.

[LadyFrankenstein]

I loved Pandemonium. It's a spoof on the Friday the 13th films and slashers in general. I remember Pee Wee Herman is in it and he is such a prick. I guess I'm a Pee Wee fan, but who isn't? Everyone who saw Pee Wee's Big Adventure as a child cannot say they weren't scared of Large Marge. Outside of horror, that was one of only things to terrify me.

[Joker]

Pandemonium needs a DVD release.

A great part is where one of the Cheerleaders picks up the phone to try and call for help,then in a panic she says "the phone is dead",and in the next shot we see the phone on the wall with a big knife stuck in it.
Classic stuff.:bigthumbup:

[JerkyPuck]

How about "The Initiation"??? One of my favorite 80's flicks.

[LadyFrankenstein]

Initiation has Clu Gulager in it right? Saw it a long time ago, was much better than I expected.

[broke string bill7]

can't belive people haven't seen rawhead rex?! that's a classic, its has one of the best scenes in a horror movie ever in it! i'm not going to ruin it you just have to see the movie your self. and i'm surprised no one has mentioned vamp on that list, another classic with grace jones as a vampiric stripper!!!:bigthumbup:

[broke string bill7]
