HM [Now Virtual, Maybe] HorrorFest 2011 (Page 2 of 5)

well it could be as simple as picking 5 really cool movies and setting the week we are going to watch them and discuss them. Like a book club only far more bad ass namely horror flicks

im thinking we need to pick a couple good movies available for rent or on Netflix so we can include as many people as possible. You can then do the writeup as a piece on site and folks can share their 5 cents on each film.

We could make it an on going theme where each month we pick say 5 movies from different genres of horror and at the end of the month you could do a writeup with your thoughts on the 5 films and we as the community can then comment with our thoughts.

Make it so #1...

Sorry Az just joking!...I think it is a great idea.  I am looking forward to participating.

well im down for whatever is decided here i trust you as long as the monkey has the knife i cant make him angry haha

AHHHHHH!!!! You so owned me!  And I've been on a Trek DVRing fest recently. 

I feel unworthy..

edit-  "2nd star to the right, and straight on till morning."
Does that help my cred?

Methinks I'm giving up.

I'd never give up on HM, just seems like no one is interested in even doing the coordinated movie review thing.

Hang in there senor chango. It's Sat and a lot of the regular HM.ca'ers are probably doing other things tonight. Unlike us who have kids, wife/hubby, ie... no life. I'm interested and not only would it be a lot of fun, but also it would help me with the jitters I get when trying to write reviews. I need the practice. Can't make any promise about how many movies I will be able to watch, because of my 5 kids, and I'm always on the go it seems. But never the less, you can count me in.

^Wonders of the world around us my simian friend, 1000 plus posts all from an android powered cell phone. No computer, no home internet. Like I said though, all things that I am wanting to get anyways...unfortunately working in social services is not the most profitable of careers...

my bad, my friend.  Never thought of a cell phone poster!  We'll see what we can do, if we even do it, which is looking less likely.

Huh?  How did I miss this entire thread?  Dude -- I think someone's slipping something into my Diet Coke.  Fucker, whoever it is.

I'm totally down for this.  We tried something like this several years ago on the website I used to review for; we'd assign a movie for folks to watch over a weekend, then dedicate an entire thread just to discussion on that film.

It went on for about a month, but people grew bored with it because people kept assigning movies which everybody had already seen numerous times, and had already talked about numerous times. 

So as far as any input I might have, I would only suggest assigning such movies rarely.  For instance, you wouldn't want to assign Dawn of the Dead because as great a movie as it is, it's been discussed almost to death.  Y'know, that kind of thing.

Just my two cents.  But yeah, I'm down for this.
