I thought these were gonna get harder, not easier=p

1. Weird Science

2. Mad Max Beyond Thunderdome

3. Teen Wolf (though personally, I always thought Boof was way hotter than Pam ever was...so honestly, I think Scott wound up with the hotter chick in the end.)

4. The Horror Show (a.k.a. House III). (Isn't this one a little TOO easy? The psycho killer in pretty much every slasher flick I've seen always has to go after the main character, or you'd have no movie...that is unless of course the psycho killer IS the main character.)

5. The Breakfast Club (yes, I went with the most painfully obvious choice.)

6. Glory

True I've seen and own a good amount of horror films...But a "Horror movie Buff?" I wouldn't say I'm quite at that level, at least not yet.

I did actually get around to seeing Maytrs. Yes, I was finally able to hunt it down. I really liked it. It made me wish I could have been there to view it at the 2008 film festival. It was very imaginitive and the gore factor didn't seem tacked on like so many other crappy horror movies were doing at the time. Ans yes, there were even a couple parts that made me giggle. So yeah, I certainly must give you props and thanks for suggesting the movie to me. (You were the one who first mentioned it to me right?)..Sorry, I'm too lazy to hunt down or try to remember which thread it was where this movie was mentioned to me. But anywho, if that was you...Have you got around to seeing Sick Nurses yet?

yeah that was me that suggested it. very original movie and a clever concept. The fact it was in french added to the appeal for me. I did watch a couple you recommended a while ago now but cant remember the names. I will chase down sick nurses by next weekend and get back to you on that one.
