HALLOWEEN II

Directed by Rick Rosenthal
Released in 1981

Plot:
While Sheriff Brackett and Dr. Loomis hunt for Michael Myers, a traumatized Laurie is rushed to hospital, and the serial killer is not far behind her.

Why You Should Watch It:
It may not be a great movie, but this is classic October/Halloween material. This is one of the first Halloween movies I saw because it was always on cable TV around this time. I'd never see the first film on TV anywhere, but this always was.

The film continues on the same Halloween night as the first movie. The body count is bigger. This is a pure slasher film.

Michael Myers stalks a darkened hospital. Not many people are in it, for some reason, except those unfortunate souls he winds up slaughtering.

He's trying to find Laurie Strode, the girl who got away from him in the first movie. And there's a major secret about her that will be revealed. For Michael and Laurie have a connection to each other that nobody had known about.....

Halloween II has a great ending. I hate the brother/sister thing though.







PRINCE OF DARKNESS

Directed by John Carpenter
Released in 1987

Plot:
A research team finds a mysterious cylinder in a deserted church. If opened, it could mean the end of the world.

Why You Should Watch It:
Well, I haven't watched it in years, but I wanna watch it again.

I avoided this movie because I thought it was actually really scary, unlike a lot of other stuff.

There's a guy who's covered in insects standing in the dark of night and he speaks in a gravelly, robotic-like voice warning the others that they should "pray for death" because what he has in store for them is much worse than death. Then his head falls off his body.

TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE: THE NEXT GENERATION

Directed by Kim Henkel
Released in 1994

Plot:
A group of teenagers get into a car crash in the Texas woods on prom night, and then wander into an old farmhouse that is home to Leatherface and his insane family of cannibalistic psychopaths.

Why You Should Watch It:
Matthew McConaughey stars in it.

Like, he's ONE OF THE LEAD STARS.

The other one, believe it or not, is Renee Zellweger, but big deal.

Matthew McConaughey's in it. He plays a psycho member of Leatherface's family. He's got a f**ked up leg thing/mechanical leg brace.

Just watch it. Matthew McConaughey. Stupid movie, but Matthew McConaughey.

Also, Leatherface is more of a drag queen this time.







Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation.


The original Dallas Buyers Club.

James Rolfe (Angry Video Game Nerd) did a video of that for this year's October "Monster Madness". You should watch it.

THE HUNGER

Directed by Tony Scott
Released in 1983

Plot:
Miriam, a centuries-old vampire, preys on urban clubgoers with her vampire lover John. When John suddenly ages and wastes away, Miriam casts her spell upon Sarah, a doctor who researches premature aging. This neo-Gothic exercise in style and atmosphere is perhaps most widely known for a lesbian sex scene involving Miriam and Sarah, played by Catherine Deneuve and Susan Sarandon.

(written by Marty Cassady)

Why You Should Watch It:
Vampires.

And, according to IMDB plot author Marty Cassady, the lesbian sex scene.







I am so bored with this now.

If anyone else wants to finish my list for me, they can.

I am never starting another list.

Did you get bored or just not enough rep?
Well, I got a lot of rep today, so I will continue this countdown tonight.







LEPRECHAUN

Directed by Mark Jones
Released in 1993

Plot:
An evil, sadistic Leprechaun goes on a killing rampage in search of his beloved pot of gold.

Why You Should Watch It:
I repeat: An evil, sadistic Leprechaun goes on a killing rampage in search of his beloved pot of gold.

Also because it's the first of these movies and Jennifer Aniston is the star.

And because Warwick Davis is hysterical as the Leprechaun.







This isn't my favorite of the Leprechaun movies, but as a Halloween recommendation to everybody, I recommend the first film, especially since Jennifer Aniston is in it.

THE LIST SO FAR

1. Halloween II (1981)

2. Prince of Darkness (1987)

3. A Nightmare on Elm Street 3: Dream Warriors (1987)

4. Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation (1994)

5. Blue Velvet (1986)

6. The Hunger (1983)

7. Leprechaun (1993)



Nice start; so what's with Blue Velvet?
It just seems like a good Halloween kind of movie. Especially if you're busy answering the door and giving out candy and can't really pay much attention to the movie.
