I just noticed yesterday that my local Wal-Mart has a big selection of vampire and werewolf movies available again, no doubt because "New Moon" is hitting DVD shortly. Most of the titles are movies they've carried before, but I did notice a few new choices:
Wolf (Jack Nicholson)
Dog Soldiers
Jess Franco's Dracula (Christopher Lee)
another version of Dracula featuring Jack Palance
I didn't notice any Hammer offerings this time, and frankly most of the rest of the movies are ones I have no interest in. All of these movies were $7.50 each. On the other side of the same kiosk, they had a selection of sword & sorcery films, including three Harryhausen titles:
The 7th Voyage of Sinbad
Clash of the Titans
The Mysterious Island
These were $6.00 each. There's also a selection of Academy Award winning films, which includes "Gods and Monsters", the James Whale biopic. Get thee to Wal-Mart!

I picked up a John Carpenter collection at WalMart this weekend. Two discs, four movies: They Live, Village Of The Damned, The Thing, and Prince of Darkness...not in that order.

13 bucks, i think. Worth it for The Thing or They Live alone.

I picked up the new MST3K box set, Crawling Eye and Blood Waters of Dr Z are the two horror titles in there. It's not my favourite of the box sets but still the little extras are nice.

This week I picked up several new DVDs. I ordered three from Amazon:
Gorgo
The Valley of Gwangi
The Giant Behemoth
At Wal-Mart I picked up:
Wolf
Dog Soldiers
And today at Big Lots I found a copy of the original "The Stepford Wives". Some day I'll catch up on all the unwatched movies I have piled by the TV

Oh yeah, The Thing is awesome, one of my top 10 favorite horror flicks. Prince of Darkness isn't too bad. It isn't going to win any awards, but it DOES have one of the best and creepiest endings of any horror flick I have ever seen, if not THE creepiest.

Just picked up Massacre at Central High from Amazon and Happy Birthday to Me (the new one with the original score)

Prince of Darkness messed with my 14 year old mind quite a bit. Very disturbing as I recall.

I don't get the love for Final Sacrafice, as a fan of MST3K I just find nothing spectacular about the episode and the movie is just average. It wouldn't make my top 50 favourite eps.

Having watched it, I think it's the movie. It's such a.... er.... INDESCRIBABLE film. Is it bad? Yeah, but in ways I've never seen anything be BAD before.... so that counts for something. And I found the wimpy kid riffs pretty funny.

Plus, the Canada song.

We've all been there.

Found Mad Max at Big Lots for 3 bucks.

Picked up the Dan Curtis/Jack Palance Dracula at Wal-Mart. Never saw it, but heard nothing but good things about it. And wife got New Moon. Don't stone me.

Haha - Last night I actually watched "New Moon". A couple of my buddies were hanging out and put on "Twilight" as a joke before I went over. They ended up thinking it was one of the unintentionally funniest movies they had seen in a while, so we ended up watching the second one. Man was that movie was dull. Ugh. They didn't like it either. How creepy is a dude who looks 20 year-old drug addict deciding to go to high school for over a hundred years? Ghaaa! I kinda liked Kristen Stewart in "Adventureland" and was looking forward to "The Runaways", but I hated her in this. Seriously, she gasps emotionally after every third word. If she took out all the awkward pauses and gasps in her dialog I think the movie would have run an hour shorter.

We also watched Frank "Basket Case" Henenlotter's Bad Biology - which is kind of a weird and funny horror/porn. It had it's moments.

Don't know if it counts as a horror, comedy or a sci-fi movie, but I just watched "Save the Green Planet" with my girlfriend and one of her best friends because they wanted to see something "crazy". Surprisingly they loved it. They freaked out at some of the harsher scenes but after it ended they were really excited about how wild that movie is and had a blast.

Just picked up "Last of the living" A low budget zombie flick out of New Zealand....LOL
Cost me $2.50 from wal-mart.
I laughed pretty good.It's no lord of the rings.
