A Nightmare on Elm Street.

I hate horrors, I get ridiculously scared for some reason. But I thought well this is regarded as a bit of a classic, and I thought it'd be a 80s cliché ridden, which it was. But it still scared the shit out of me. FML

I love that movie. I guess I could see how someone seeing it for the first would see it as 80s cliché ridden, but it should be pointed out that it was actually the originator of a lot of those things and wasn't so clichéd at the time of its release.

Nightmare on Elm Street is one of my favorites...but I used to love all those slasher movies. To this day the original Halloween is one of my favorites.

I just saw Wolfman, though...pretty good remake. Just a good ol fashioned monster movie.

I just went and seen Cop Out.... I was worried about it since the trailer I seen it was nothing more then Tracey Morgan going on and on and I was worried even though Kevin Smith Directed it, His comedy wouldn't show through. But I laughed and the Crowd laugh through most of the movie, I felt like Tracey Morgan was playing his normal retarded self but yet Bruce pulled the movie through making the retardness funny with a story. I also didnt know it was Rated R till I got the theaters from the previews I saw, I was thinking it was a PG13.

I could really see why Kevin Smith Directed this instead of sticking to his normal Script. I say if you like Buddy Cop Movies and Kevin Smith, then this is something you'll enjoy, I felt like it was a Spoof of a all buddy cop movies before it... Kinda like what Tracey Morgan was saying in the beginning a homage.

Even though I went into the theater already knowing the final twist of Shutter Island, I still thought it was largely an enjoyable experience that took a really good book and didn't do a bad job of transferring it to the silver screen...

I saw Nightmare on Elm Street when I was a kid. That scene with the first victim flying around .. it left quite an impression! I actually got my hands on the whole Nightmare collection a little while ago and have planned to go through them all since I've so far only really ever seen the first, but I've been putting it off as I know most of the sequels are crap. I still expect them to have some kind of entertainment value, though. Robert Englund as Freddy is at least entertaining in the first.

I wouldn't say the sequels are crap. Trashy? Yes. Ridiculous? Yes. But still incredibly entertaining, especially parts 3 and 4. And Wes Craven's New Nightmare is actualy a flat out good movie that's very different from the rest of the series.

Hmm, thanks for the added motivation Janszoon

I will watch them in chronological order, but I assume that it's not important in terms of story?
