    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    Totally forgot about The Night Flier and Graveyard shift. Both of those were fairly decent B-movies.

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    I agree, they sure do fail, and the movies get bleaker and bleaker as they go on. They're just some shitty random friends dealing with a cosmic horror. Reggie narrates that the Tall Man has been moving across the country and towns are abandoned, and you get this sense of a greater apocalyptic...

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    The Phantasm movies are great. They were a huge labor of love for Don Coscarelli. I know there was talk of remaking them (maybe JJ was involved) back in the early 2000's I think, and they had were planning to make them the "Starwars" of horror films. Guess that shit never got off the ground...

    Stephen King's The Dark Tower

    Hey, The Mangler wasn't bad, it had Buffalo-fucking-Bill. Best is probably The Mist, or any of the other Frank Darabont adaptations. Christine is up there, because Carpenter knows how to make a film. Problem is you get start watching all the made for TV mini-series, and while some are worse...

    It (2017)

    Agreed. Didn't have high hopes at all for this, and still a bit wary (trailers and all that shit), but crossing fingers that this might be one of the better adaptations. May even be as good as Christine. At least it looks hands down better then The Dark Tower bullshit, so that's a plus.

    Rip George Romero

    Same here. He may not have made anything amazing in recent memory, but at least he was passionate about what he did. Look up Bruiser. One of his other films that's totally B quality, but enjoyable nonetheless...

    I'd probably go with The Deep next. Little Heaven got a little disjointed, but still isn't a bad book. Haven't read the one other (can't remember the name) that he has out about some sort of religious dystopia.

    The Metal Thread

    Very first CD I ever owned. Got it for Christmas from my brother. Whole fucking album, to this day, still fucking kicks ass. Had friends in Austin during the late 90's early 2000's and apparently there was a big ambient music scene where folks used to roll out to the countryside, eat shrooms...

    Yeah, that part was pretty unnerving. It's been a while since I read it, but I think that's the point where shit really starts to hit the fan.

    The newer version. I agree, he does get pretty energetic at times, but still think it's a pretty good performance. Curious to know your thoughts on when you finish The Troop.

    Man, the audiobook version of IT is fanstastic. Think I've listened to it a three times at this point over the years. I'm on the road a lot due to work, so I listen to a ton of books. If I get home, crack open a paperback on the sofa, I fall asleep in 20 mins. Audiobooks give me a chance to...

    Are you reading it or doing the audio version? Either way, it's a pretty grim novel, but the audiobook really elevates a couple of specific scenes that make it even more horrific. Regardless, great narration / performance. You'll enjoy The Deep if you pick it up next. Much more Lovecraftian...

    It Comes at Night (2017)

    Think that sums up my thoughts perfectly. The Witch was pretty amazing, and easily one of the best horror films I've seen in years. I was excited for this flick, and while the production was spot on, it just left me wanting something more. I don't know, maybe just a hint of something...

    Saw this yesterday afternoon, and while it's a good movie, it's definitely not what I was expecting.

    The Secret World

    Quick question. If you purchased a bunch of shit from the store (clothing, outfits, etc) in the original version, does any of that transfer over? I'd honestly be pretty pissed if everything I purchased in the original game isn't available or at least given some form of compensation.

    Yeah, but the source material was excellent, and that's the big difference. Everything else he's made in the last decade has been pretty lackluster.

    Of course it looked like a pussy, HR Giger designed the original, and ton of his art is dicks and vaginas. I'm sure his inspiration was vaginas birth life, so I'm going to design a crazy pussy monster with grabber hands. Phallic headed aliens: Oh, and the movie was pretty bad. By the...
