I always see people that remind me of people in my real life in the movies, and no lie- the kid in the Omen looked like my cousin, we all thought it in my family too. I always wondered what that kid looks like today, does anyone know?

That movie freaked me out, the end I remember when they dig up the skeleton of the baby, and all the dogs at the cemetary...that was really scary.

And when the Nanny hangs herself. I just have no clue how they put kids that small in those movies, how they even understand how to "act" at that age. To me that is the amazing part.

Didn't he have the 666 number on the back of his head?

When he was riding his tricycle and knocked the mom over the staircase, that was pretty freaky.

I realized a little too late I was naming 80s ones in the 70s forum....but I think talking about Dario Argento is what brought that slip up.

OMEN was one of the first (if not THE first) horror movies I ever saw as a kid and just about traumatized me. Man...to this day I cant stand the sight of that kid!

Did anybody mention....The 1st PHANTASM it was made in 78 0r 79. But it was mostly popular in the '80s cause it came out so close to the end of the '70s decade.

Yeah Mr Son of Al.I mentioned "Phantasm" way back.I love it and the score is as good yet underrated in comparison with say the "Halloween score.I hope they don't ruin "Phantasm" and remake it.The follow ups were no way near as cool.It came out in 1979.

Yes!Tall man!What a scary dude.He reminds me of the reverend in "Poltergiest"2,3.I've seen up to part 3 and can't remember if i've actually seen the 4th "Phantasm".

What about Cronenberg with "Shivers","Rabid"Starring Marilyn Burns(70's porn queen who was also in "Texas chainsaw)and "The Brood"with Oliver Reed.

Part of Gav's post:

...What about [David] Cronenberg with "Shivers", "Rabid", starring Marilyn Burns (70's porn queen who was also in "Texas chainsaw")...
Gav, I think you are confusing the two Marilyns!

You meant Marilyn Chambers, (of "Behind The Green Door" fame) [Smile] She was never in the "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" movies, but she did appear in Cronenberg's "Rabid".

Marilyn Burns was in the original "Texas Chainsaw", but no porn flicks!

According to the IMDB.com, Cronenberg's first choice was Sissy Spacek for that role. But executive producer Ivan Reitman wanted sex appeal, and he didn't want Spacek in another horror movie (she was also in "Carrie" the previous year).

Yeah STEVE i heard about Sissy Spacek being the first choice.

How about Dracula AD 1972
and The Satanic Rites of Dracula with a young Joanna Lumley, London at its swinging best!!

Another "period" piece I love is The Curse of the Crimson Alter, Boris Karloff looking old but still having fun in the horror role (sorry this may have been 60's please dont all shout at me)
