I need to watch<br /><br />possibly another where unless you've had a long history with it (or aren't a die-hard fredhead) it won't work for you. just so you know, i think i'm rating it completely on the sense of style than the actual content of the movie.<br /><br />> "MR. WRONG" ... I didn't find it boring at all.<br /><br />same. what were they expecting, CHRISTINE?<br /><br />> "HENRY" ... Definitely my #1 pick for this year<br /><br />great movie. i've only seen it twice, second time to show to someone maybe about six years after it came out on tape. it's not something i ever think about needing to look at again. sticks with you.spookyx3https://www.blogger.com/profile/16031768705430185415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214930440884348127.post-8262016728950012322016-02-19T22:33:12.514-05:002016-02-19T22:33:12.514-05:00"MR.

This was probably my least favorite of the first four, though it's crazy and weird for sure.<br /><br />"THE PHANTOM EMPIRE"<br /><br />Reminds me I still have a handful of Fred Olen Ray movies I need to watch, and this is one of them.<br /><br />"MR. WRONG"<br /><br />Liked this one quite a bit. It gets quite a lot of "boring" comments but I didn't find it boring at all.<br /><br />"HENRY"<br /><br />Definitely my #1 pick for this year, but I can understand why The Fly won the poll as Henry isn't really the type of movie you can watch anytime. There are a lot of good films to choose from this year.The Bloody Pit of Horrorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04419921450872885649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5214930440884348127.post-51338999151567353352016-02-19T18:27:40.197-05:002016-02-19T18:27:40.197-05:00FROM BEYOND
