Damn kids...

And to think, I'll be 41 in October. It's true what they say; youth is wasted on the young.

I think I remember the video box for it...there was a zombie in I think a lower corner, and the make-up looked like he had poop smeared on his face.

YES! I just did an image search on google and I was right. Poop-faced zombie from Nightmare City:

Have you tried Lucio Fulci's Zombie (aka Zombi 2)? That's probably the best spaghetti zombie flick out there, IMO.

Put on Nightmare City this afternoon and it just didn't grab me in. I just need something with a little more character development when it comes to Zombie flicks. I dno what it is about some of these Italian movies, I just can't get interested. I have noticed I do like them more now though then when I first started. Probably going to watch The Stuff or The Beyond tonight. Or Day of the Dead which I just got in the mail on DVD.

New York Ripper is a pretty brutal flick. Watch for the "razor dragged across the eyeball" scene and prepare to squirm.

The Stuff is enjoyable hokum, The Beyond oozes atmosphere and A Night to Dismember is as good as the title suggests. Haven't seen Nightmare City in, jeez, over twenty years; don't remember a great deal about it.

Watched House by the Cemetery in it entirety last night. I got distracted a time or two but It was pretty darn creepy. I have a feeling with a couple more watches It would really grow on me.

just took back my recent rentals and picked up

The stuff, the Beyond, House, Nightmare City, New York Ripper(fulci), and a Night to Dismember.

I think I am most excited to watch The Stuff, The Beyond, and House. A Night to Dismember appears to be a pretty bad B Slasher.

Watched Monster Squad and am definitely going to have to purchase it. One of my favorite movies recently has been Joe Dante's Explorers, and Monster Squad starts off almost the exact same way. Kid getting picked on, cooler kid saves the day and then is invited to join the club...The scene where the kid and his dad are watching the movie on his roof and very reminiscent of the scene where Ethan Hawke stares at the stars on his roof as well. Both movies have a Spielbergian feel also...

Movies like Monster Squad are the type that have to be watched over and over again. Most people who love the film have seen it so many times, and a lot of them also saw it when they were younger. Luckily, I don't have much problem feeling the nostalgia even though I am 26 years old. One of the scenes where the mummy was just strolling the streets at night gave me a really damn good feeling. Just something about it was so perfect. Same thing with the werewolf running around on the loose.

Also the homage to the original Frankenstein movie was absolutely classic, as well as the kids walking with Frankenstein.

I rewatched Super 8 after almost hating it the first time, and liked it a ton more this time. It did about as good as you can do at bringing back the 80s children adventure feel..

Also loved the final credits where they actually showed the movie the kids made.

I think I'm going to get into some Hammer/House by the Cemetery tonight.

What are some other 80s adventure films based around kids?

Other than Stand By Me, Goonies, E.T, Honey I Shrunk the Kids and the other obvious ones
