I think it was the rainbow coffee cup last week that tipped me (straight, white & clueless) to Trent’s identity. There could certainly have been a longer lead-in, but this show already has so many characters to manage that the breadcrumbs can only be stretched out so far.

Even better Question: How is a Freddie Highmore?

MORTON DOWNEY JR

Looks like he was on Oprah once in 2004, so that’s what I’m going with.

I obviously enjoy the last two seasons of this show way more than the folks at AV Club. Nothing wrong with that, but it means I don’t usually agree with the reviews.

She was asking if they had sex, his “Yes we did” was that they fell in love.

Giving very short shrift to Jamie here. He had a great role in his storyline - opening up to Roy and deepening the show’s most rewarding friendship, revealing hidden depths and intelligence again, all while still showing flashes of that charming bravado.

And how they absolutely should not have been swayed. I mean, maybe it doesn’t fit R, but R is a better fit than PG given the amount of gore, even if it is cartoonish. (Thank you, Gremlins and Temple of Doom, for being a couple of the movies that granted us the studio beloved PG-13.)

But the right people got it, and that’s what matters. You and your kid are awesome!

My kid dressed up as Herbert West last Halloween -- most people in their high school did not get it.

Yeah, that’s Ghoulies. Which is classic false advertising as they never did a toilet butt bite despite the box art. As has been discussed a few times on The Flop House.

Leslie Nielsen was playing against type in Airplane.  He was known for more serious stuff before that movie.  If anything Creepshow was just a return to form.

Can we stop pretending The Howling is any good? I watched it, and then hate watched the sequels (which got worse and worse lol). Also, The Fog is completely lame. How did a film with Adrienne Barbeau, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Janet Leigh suck so bad?

Not only supposed to be, he was! Zach Galligan was only 20 when Gremlins was released. I don’t know filming dates but he could have even been 19 when it was shot. Even so, 20 is close enough.

“Lair” is a better flick than half the movies on this list. And how can any story about great ‘80s horror films omit a masterpiece like “Near Dark”?

Return of the Living Dead is an oversight for sure. Not only is it pants-shittingly terrifying, it also pants-wettingly hilarious.

I find less to complain about with this list than with many.  What are the next ten, though?  Looks like people have been going with Deadly Friend, Lair of the White Worm...I never really loved Phantasm II but I have to put From Beyond on here, plus Return of the Living Dead, Night of the Comet, and for some reason…

I had a similar issue, but it was for The People Under The Stairs, which was early 90s.

Amanda Donohoe. Wow. Great (but extremely silly) film.

I will always have a soft spot for Lair of the White Worm. I was also going to complain about the lack of Phantasm, but it turns out that actually comes from the very end of the 70s.
