All you need to know about FRIDAY THE 13th: there are TWO films in the franchise that promised RIGHT IN THEIR TITLES that they were the Final installment… and neither was.

It's greatest strength is also it's greatest weakness: after exploring new territory, it turns into a more conventional NOES installment in the last half hour… but, then again, it HAS to. THAT'S THE POINT OF IT ALL.

Certainly not the mayor in MY town.

She MAY be a witch. TIME FOR A WIFE-DUNKIN'!

A neo-beatnik associate of hours was cleaning up a spill at an art show I attended just this past weekend, and we were teasing him about it: "Hey! Paisley! WHERE'S MY CAT!?"

I was under the impression that the never-speaking Vulnavia was Phibe's ULTIMATE automaton.
Mostly because a man so devoted to his wife would NEVER be that romantic with another woman. She is LITERALLY his toy.

This is why I prefer their Frankenstein films to their Dracula films- the Frankensteins have BIG CHUNKS OF CONCENTRATED CUSHING, while the Draculas have Lee showing up once in a while as per contratual obligation.

Burton/Depp circa 1997- I'd be down for it.

Actually, it's no cooler than CONQUEROR WORM.
(which ALSO fits the film pretty well)

the scene in the butcher shop WAS pretty cool, I concede.

yeah, Harvey's brother made a lotta crap.

Remembering something as being better than the rest of the film IS remembering it fondly.

(obviously, this DOES include ROSEMARY'S BABY).

All William Castle films can be summed up with the title " Bad Marriage Theatre".

The brilliance of SAPPHIRE AND STEEL was that it came right out and ADMITTED it couldn't do any elaborate effects, and then went on to put forward wild and fantasical stories ANYWAY- " See this weird green light? that means we've entered into an alternate dimension. That guy in judge's robes? He's an ENTIRE ALIEN…

The DVD includes "in character" interviews with the performers.

I find it hard to disagree with you.

Joe Dante is working on a new adaptation of RUNES, starring Simon Pegg.

Indeed. He spoke the LANGUAGE of horror exceptionally well- even in shorthand.
