Thanks; I enjoy writing my reviews. It's cool to know that people are reading them!
Thanks to whoever recommended "Uninvited" and "Demonic" earlier in the thread. I bought a 12-movie pack with these two movies in it, and I watched "Uninvited" today and really enjoyed it. I'll check out "Demonic" next.

Galaxy of Terror was a hoot. Nobody but nobody does a knockoff quite like Roger Corman. Well, maybe the Italians.

So I finished Tremors: The Series this evening, and I want more. I know that it's trashy television, but it's damn enjoyable trashy television. It reminded me a lot of the first couple of seasons of Smallville with the "Monster-of-the-Week" format and I wonder if they would have moved into a more streamlined, story arc format if the show had continued. I have caught a lot of flack for my Tremors love from friends and family. This culminated to being the lone Graboid lover in a room full of people stating how terrible the movies are.
Also, I finally watched Jaws and the original Night of the Living Dead for the first time; I'm pretty sure that the indentations where I hugged one of my throw pillows are not going to come out! The last film gave me the idea for an assignment where I had my class choose a building around our town to fortify to withstand a zombie apocalypse and develop an argument. Strangely enough, no one chose the farmhouse from Night of the Living Dead.

Lots of great choices everyone! I got another vote for The Fly via message so I'll go with that one tonight if I can stay conscious. Of course, in going to my shelf to find it I saw 20 other films I thought I'd get to this month.... Can October come three times a year?

Edit to add: D'oh! And I notice my frazzled brain took so long to even form that message that you already made your decision. At least I can fully support your choice. Seth recommended The Brood earlier as well. Both great movies. Can't go wrong with Cronenberg.

I watched A Haunting in Connecticut last night off of ScyFy. Average, ok movie i guess. But they say that the documentary is more spooky and creepy that the film. Is that true? If it is, I may have to get this DVD just to find out.
Also, where is the bluray of Twins of Evil? Last i heard it was to be released in November / December but there still is no word or even a trace of it being released soon. Been checking Amazon to see if it shows up there but no luck yet.

"The Fear is Real: Reinvestigating the Haunting (1080p, 41:46) is a two-part documentary composed primarily of interview clips with the Snedeker's, the family whose story inspired the film, and their friends and associates."
(from the blu-ray.com review)

You could wild card them.

And the award for best wardrobe malfunction in a film goes to Dawn Dunlap! Yeah, I caught that last year and it's probably my preference of the two. Tonight after Mimic I'll go in a similar direction and catch a first time viewing of Humanoids from the Deep.
You could wild card them.

in regards to 'A Haunting' I thought the unrated 'R' cut of the film was wild and the 5.1 soundmix top notch - I liked the movie probably more so than you, but yes I'd be curious in watching the documentary too. I don't know if this on the DVD, but on the bluray there is this:
"The Fear is Real: Reinvestigating the Haunting (1080p, 41:46) is a two-part documentary composed primarily of interview clips with the Snedeker's, the family whose story inspired the film, and their friends and associates."

Just ordered the bluray for $5 used. I hope it will get here for the challenge, but i'm not sure.
