Let's not forget also that bad stuff came out of the kids' closet. So, we have a evil tree outside the window, an evil clown hiding beneath the bed, and evil spirits in the closet… all in your own house! Could any movie possibly capture the collective fears of American children more perfectly?

Yeah, scariest movie made before The Shining.

What about the scene where Richard Chamberlain tries in vain to escape by running through the flames?

Superman III- the scene where that lady gets sucked into the computer and transformed into… something, I'm not really sure what she's supposed to be. Overall, a silly movie, but I could never watch that part when I was a kid.

At least he never recorded his impromptu version of "Baby Your a Rich Man" about Brian Epstein…

I quite agree.  And surprisingly… when not dealing with issues that directly relate to China, that state-owned English-language Chinese news channel isn't too bad either.  But Russia Today is just God-awful.

I'm surprised nobody mentioned the biggest casualty of them all.  Remember when CNN seemingly could offer a live report from virtually any corner of the globe without resorting to borrowed footage or endless talking head analysis?  They're not as bad as what Fox and MSNBC have devolved into.  But a sad shadow of their

And if you want to hear him sing… Darby O'Gill and the Little People.

I enjoyed them until the fictional history of the late 20th century he created started diverging too far from the real one.  I forget the exact title, but it was the book about a war between China and Russia that finished me on Tom Clancy.  He kept referencing major world events that only occurred in fictional the

I got scared there for a minute.  Reading this article, I thought someone must have zapped me back in time to the early 1990s.  Substitute "Annapurna Pictures" and "Open Road" with "Miramax" and "Merchant Ivory", and let the déja vu roll.  This "trend toward indies" has been going on so long, it's not a trend at all. 

Emotional diarrhea is how I would describe it.  The slightest provocation would set these characters off, and it would come watery and heavy.  To me, this show was a great unintentional comedy.

I tried to get into this show, mainly because practically all the females at my university loved it.  But I just couldn't take it seriously.  These characters would become emotional wrecks at the slightest of provocations, that for me, it actually started to get funny.  I could almost imagine a theoretical exchange

My family used to spend a week every summer at a relative's cottage about 20 minutes away from Centralia.  We would drive through on the way, and every year, the town would grow more and more desolate, until they finally diverted the road.  On the south side of the town, the sight of all those dead trees and the faint

Before seeing this film, I knew Timothy Dalton primarily only as my least-favorite James Bond.  After seeing his brilliant over-the-top performance in Hot Fuzz, I gained a huge respect for him as an actor…he would have been much better cast as a Bond villain!

Forbrydelsen?  Awesome, one of the best crime shows I've ever seen.  I couldn't even make it through a single episode of the crappy US remake.  Sarah Lindon is no Sarah Lund!
