Does anyone want a region 2 dvd copy of The Exorcist?

I think that movie was more creepy than scary (for me) I LOVE terrible movies, so I've been watching a lot of those on purpose ;) I loved Starship Troopers, so I figured it was time to watch the sequels.
Yeah it was a bit creepy, gross is the word I'd use. Mainly boring. The storyline didn't really work, I think I kinda know what they were going for but it just wasn't quite there.
Anyway thats another 'well-known' I can tick off the list.

I've never seen Starship Troopers. So I thank you rockin for providing my next film to add then tick off the list.
It's kinda becoming a bucket list of films. I am still open to suggestions, heck lets make a discussion of it shall we;

What would be on your bucket list of films? (films to see before you die)

I bet there are a few you can quote from but have never seen.

The Exorcist is a classic! I also liked the original The Omen.

I've seen most of the movies on my "movie bucket list" and for some of them I wish I hadn't. The grossest movie I've ever seen was, hands down, A Serbian Film. It was the most disturbing thing I've ever seen, and that's saying a lot. Someone told me it was brilliant, but after I watched it I went back and slugged him.

Anyone else seen Tucker and Dale vs. Evil? I enjoyed that one.
I like the original Piranha (never seen the new one), hmm... looking at my movie collection here....
Dead Girl, Cemetery Man, Anatomy, Fido, Lake Placid, the original remake of House of Wax (Vincent Price)... again, I could go on, but I know it's just because it's almost 2 am and I'm still up, so I'll stop now.

The Exorcist is one of my favourites, too. Love Regan's backwards crab-walk down the stairs!

Good God, StitchWitch, don't go plugging A Serbian Film! I've only just gotten over the nightmares! Seriously people, if you think you want to watch that one, trust me, no you don't. Even reading the synopsis of it is enough to turn my stomach.

I'm more into thrillers and murder mysteries than outright horror or gore which I personally find to be unnecessary in film. I love movies like The Bone Collector, Se7en, 8mm. I also love movies that are so bad, they're good. Think anything with Nicholas Cage, Birdemic, The Room (there's actually a computer game based on this which you should all go play now!), and the Halle Berry version Catwoman is always good for a giggle, too!

YES. I thought I'd hate it, but my boyfriend convinced me to watch it and I'm so glad he did :nod

Ha, caught that one on Netflix and also enjoyed it.

I agree, I too will watch anything with Nicholas Cage, Including Ghost Rider. According to IMDB theres a new National Treasures in the works!

I never heard of this movie till now but with everyone talking about it...im curious.

Also Started watching American Horror Story. My buddy has been telling me to watch it for years and I only recently took his advice, mainly out of boredom and a lack of anything else to watch. To my utter suprise Im actually enjoying it. The writing and acting are both pretty good. Im only about halfway through season 1.

I love Tucker and Dale! (I have a massive crush on Alan Tudyk.) I am hoping that the sequel will be good. The boys said they wouldn't do a bad sequel, so let's hope they're right.

Oh, dear lord, NO, DON'T watch A Serbian Film!! I wasn't plugging it. It truly was the most disturbing thing I've ever seen. Twice I almost gagged and half the movie was so depraved I wonder if I'm on a government watch list after seeing it.

And Tucker and Dale sequel?!? Sweet!

Let's not mention that film again shall we, It's best if we just ignore its existence...
:nea:

Ahem! Anyways, I believe we were talking about movie bucket lists...
I'll certainly be looking up this 'Tucker and Dale vs Evil'

I certainly want to see The Book Thief and Pacific Rim from this year, and I haven't seen the second Hobbit movie yet....

You HAVE to watch Pacific Rim! Get thee to a rental place my dear! Its so amazingly good, although you lose a bit of the awesomeness on a small screen.
