i say you lose because because you make everything into a competition... Bullshit. I'm actually saying - There's No Competition. You're wrong. End of Story. That's what I'm saying. Therefore, no way we could compete. There's a difference. You're the one feeble enough (and by the way- your annoying persistance is why I have to keep saying things like that to you - accept what I'm saying already) to think we could ever compete. We don't know each other that well - since we're apparently competing in opinion (as far as you think). and the blob has many many classics scenes which makes it one of the best movies in the 80's period.. We'll see about that.

(this is not directed at you in any way, Mal : )
Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives - has a great heart-ripping out of the guy's chest special effect. It also has this amazing moment where Jason is looking at people from the outside of cabin windows in and either he sees them and they don't see him, or they see him and he doesn't see them. Jason in the movie is very, very good. It also has a great triple decapitation scene. Where else can you see that?
Does that mean that Friday the 13th Part VI: Jason Lives is now one of the Best of the Decade?? Because... it has some very cool stuff in it. Perhaps that means I should add it. Right? I mean... with those scenes and elements described above... it definitely belongs on a list right next to American Werewolf in London and Evil Dead and Nightmare on Elm Street and Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer... Right?

Very good points.I guess because Jason Lives is part of a series it often gets overlooked.For me it was still one of the weaker Fridays but that's mostly because I didn't care for Jason's look.I still have yet to see Henry though.I guess to be really technical, there is almost no way to compare movies from the same genre with different aspects.(vampire-werewolves, slasher-monster from space,etc.)If the list was "Most fun movies from the 80's" Blob would be top 10.(or 20)

Most Fun? Well, that's a completely separate thing: Are horror movies supposed to be fun? In what way? Are movies like Cannibal Holocaust fun? Is the point of horror always to enjoy it? Not according to the filmmakers.

^^^ You seriously must be the most self-repressed human being ever to don an epidermis. Return that anal plug to the hibernating Alaskan Brown Bear you stole it from and learn how to relax for once in your life. Of course horror movies are supposed to be fun. Other than comedies, no other genre is geared as much towards having fun as horror is. Christ........................

^^^Exactly. Although, if I had to guess, I'd think any horror movie you had to watch in the same room with Leonard Maltin, Jr. up there wouldn't be too much fun!

Although, maybe on the 25th viewing it might start to be fun.

In the same way skydiving is, just in a more abstract, and safer hobby. Adrenaline is addictive.
Tell me you didn't get a rush the first time you watched a good slasher film, and are not trying to recreate that everytime you sit down to watch another one. Of course you were safe. The badguy wasn't real, but I bet that didn't stop you from bragging to your friends in the school caffeteria how you would have done it, if it were you.
Look at Max Brooks, he's making a nice living, and has become a cult icon, all because of something he finds fun to watch, and imagining himself in the lead role.

I'm 50/50. It depends what you are in the mood for. Sometimes you want a serious movie and sometimes you want something fun. I wouldn't call Takaashi Miike's "Audition" fun.

what horror movie isnt fun?? I Spit on Your Grave - unless you enjoy watching women get raped Last House on the Left - same reason Cannibal Holocaust - unless you enjoy watching real animals being murdered on film Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer - unless you enjoy watching people being realistically attacked and their corpses' vagina violated Nekromantik - unless you enjoy watching people have sex with realistic-looking corpses Masters of Horror: Imprint - unless you enjoy watching women being viciously tortured and hung to the point where they urinate onto themselves Cannibal Ferox / Make Them Die Slowly - unless you enjoy watching a man being castrated Maniac - unless you enjoy watching women being tied up, cut up, and scalped, within seconds of each Did you really need me to make this list? There are tons more. Most of which I haven't seen. I'm 50/50. It depends what you are in the mood for. Sometimes you want a serious movie and sometimes you want something fun. I wouldn't call Takaashi Miike's "Audition" fun. Now, that's what I'm talking about. Horror movies are not made to always be fun. Regardless of what you might think, T. It's up to the filmmakers to decide! Not the audience. Because the audience doesn't make movies. The filmmakers who made Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer said violence in horror films was not made to entertain people. And it's obvious that a great deal of horror filmmakers feel exactly that way. Sometimes, the whole movie is supposed to sicken and disturb you. Sometimes, just certain scenes. Tell me you didn't get a rush the first time you watched a good slasher film, and are not trying to recreate that everytime you sit down to watch another one. Yes, to the first part. No, to the second part. I bet that didn't stop you from bragging to your friends in the school cafeteria how you would have done it, if it were you. Imagining if I were in the lead role? No. I know a movie is just a movie. And Dave- get stuffed. You are a dipshit with nothing to say. That's why you always say "I agree" after everyone else makes their points, and while they're busy using their brains, you're thinking up pathetic insults to use against me. They clearly aren't working. You are a moron.
