    I watched most of it again even though I've seen it about 100 times. The fog closing in on the kid (Andy) and Mrs Kobritz has to be one of the best set pieces in a horror film.

    dont worry spooky, a remake is in the works.... hope the original will get plenty of airtime leading up to that. Must admit that watching it at 3am was bit surreal with all the psychedelic colors and sets n all :D

    thanks ned for the heads up on the original vacancy flick, think I wont track it down...... i'll inevitably bump into it on one of the satellite channels anyway :)

    Anyone catch the Mario Bava documentary on Sky Arts yesterday? Had interviews with Lamberto, Joe Dante, Tim Burton and more. Was pretty good. I'll keep an eye out if it's on again.

    Holy Crap, the original Slasher movie is on Horror Channel, "A Bay of Blood/Twitch of the Death Nerve" 1971. Directed by Mario Bava, here's hoping they have a decent print.

    Friday night on the Horror Channel at 10.55 Street Trash is on.It is one of my favourite 80's splatter classics.A decent enough plot,ultra gory and gooey special effects and a tongue firmly in cheek make this one thats more than worth checking out!
