Classic Horror


I never saw the Gus Van Sant remake of Psycho, and it's been over a decade since I saw the original Alfred Hitchcock version, but I remember the story, and it fits the title well.
If I can, I think I'll rent Psycho this weekend.
Does anyone have classic horror film suggestions for me?
I know the Saw III is coming out soon. They're not quite classics, but I like those films.

While searching for a Psycho image, I came across this page that has cover art for this 70's thriller mag, titled, well...Psycho.
Ghouls are essential to Halloween. I'm a fan of most monster art work.

More Psycho magazine covers here.

We all know the Mannheim Steamroller for their Christmas music. In fact Matt & I went to see them play live at the Excel Energy Center late last November, and had such a blast, that we've actually consisdered making it an annual tradition.

Just don't get that Italian piece that Ms. Potter showed us in Senior year film class. What was that called? I keep thinking "I spit on your grave," but I think that is a different film altogether.

I don't think Ms. Potter would show high school kids "I spit on your grave". I rented that once, and let me tell ya, It was a piece of shit. This girl gets raped over, and over, then decided to take revenge, by doing stuff like cutting off dicks. yikes!

I saw I Spit On Your Grave.

The movie takes like 10 minutes to show someone get everyone of they're finger nails pulled off with a pair of needle nose pliers.

I'm pretty sure it's in Ms. Potter's top 10, however.
