The Omen

[Jerome Scuggs]

Romeo and Juliet with leonardo decaprio (please tell me why there are guns in a movie based on the 15th century.. please

I think it was a tasteful update, for modern, younger audiences. I spent my first semester of freshman year at a typical jock louisiana school, and they all fell asleep during the Zefferilli version, but the Luhrman version, they enjoyed.

Remakes Arnt Scary

I take it none of you guys have delved into the asian film industry, and their many wonders in the horror genre.

Japan, Korea, and China are creating some of the scariest and most original movies ever!

Then America buys the rights to the film from the asian film companies, and remakes them.

And they suck.

the exorcist was so dumb!, well at least now i wont be seeing The Omen tonight

[Liquid Blue]

Saw the Omen tonight, and I enjoyed it. I never saw the original, so I guess I went in with no expectations. I see a trend of alot of people going into movies expecting too much, just go in and enjoy the hour and a half, 2 hours of entertainment on the screen.

Horror movie.

the horror movie "the ring" was pretty much ruined for me when I made the mistake of watching the original "the ring" called "ring".

"ring" was japanese.. and freaking horrible.

[HeavenSent]

Phantasm is the movie of all horror movies. This is what started off the Friday the 13th and Freddy movies with the gore and special effects.

How can you top Angus Scrimm as the Tall Man!

If you have never seen this...do a couple shots and have a good laugh as it is dated in materail and efx, but you will see that this was the movie that opened the door to the gore and blood ridden movies of todays horror films.

I saw that movies the first time trippin on some micro-dot. It was great... both the trip and the movie! :turned:

[ÆNIMA]

Has anyone seen the "Legend of Hell House"? It was made in the 60s I think and I was started watching it on tv by myself at night, I got a little goosebumpy and changed the channel. Is the rest of the movie like that?

I went to go see the omen on 6-6-06 with about 3 grams of mariajuana in my bloodstream and I still thought it was precictable. (I never saw the original)

[duel pasta]

Same happened to me.. watched commercials and was like 'WOW I HAVE TO SEE IT!!!' but when it ended it was like 'sigh...'

you mean ringu. And if thats the only delving you did, then shame on you. That movie was made in 1998, before the Japanese (and really, the asian) film business had evolved. You wouldn't judge all American horror flicks by one movie would you?
