Never heard of this movie, but I'll check it out and if I think it is good then I will add it to my list. Thanks.

'Extract'. A comedy.

[quote="Belladonna"]I haven't seen 30 Days of Night yet. It's on my list though.

I absolutely loved this movie. I think it made it scarier that they spoke another language. What they had to say really wasn't very important. They were terrifying!!!

while flipping through the on demand last night I watched "The Little Girl Who Lives Down the Lane"...It's from 1976 and stars Jodie Foster and Martin Sheen, it was pretty good, not really scary but a decent movie to watch.

One of the best vampire movies of late. It made my blood run cold, which is what they're supposed to do.

I t hink you hit the nail right on the head. The "Twilight" movie characters appear to be constantly depressed, screwed up teenagers, and that sparkle is the fakyest thing I ever saw in a movie. "30 Days of Darkness," on the other hand, was an excelent horror movie, that portrayed vampires as they were meant to be portrayed. As monsters, and not as typical American teenagers who love spagheti and eat Italian food.

I actualy saw "The Little Girl who Lived Down the Lane" in the theatre when it came out. It was sort of interesting, but there was no real horror to the movie at all. The girls young boy friend died of phenumonia when he took a hot bath after working out in the rain. The bully was poisened, and it was assumed by the viewer that the girl poisened her parents and others as well. I liked it, but IMHO it was no classic horror flick, and definately a major departure from the trailors that were shown on tv back in 76 when "The Little Girl Who Lives Down teh Lane" was released to theatres.

Last Friday, I went and saw "Extracted." I found it to be so boring that I left before it was over.

Just watched "Hot Tub Time Machine", I expected this to be beyond dumb and it was a little but it was a lot better then I expected it to be.

I went to see Predators in cinema a few weeks back, and as a massive Alien-Predator fan I loved it. It's so much better than the crappy Alien Vs Predator movies.

I plan to buy the Kick-@ss Blu-Ray/DVD Combo pack when it comes out on September 6th. I loved that movie.

watched "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" last night with the kids. You really pretty much have to read the book to enjoy this movie, it isnt exactly like the book but it was still funny.

I just watched Daybreakers on Blu-Ray. A very interesting take on the Vampire genre, and a breath of fresh air from all that Twilight <deleted>.
