By most accounts, the new Evil Dead is 90% practical gore efx with minimal CGI. The trailer leaked this week from Comic Con but was quickly pulled. Raimi and Campbell are producing it, but after Spider Man 3 and all the various duds released under Raimi's Ghost House productions (Boogeryman, The Messengers, The Possession) can we really trust these guys to know what a good movie is, much less what a good scary movie is? As an aside, I met Bruce Campbell. Total prick.

The first Phantasm is scary. The rest are pure cheese.


Gotta love the underrated Angus Scrimm. He and Christopher Lee should be cousins; they cornered the market on really tall, creepy old horror actors. :lol:

Did he refer to himself in the third person? :lol:

Ditto that! Lee's also great as the protagonist in The Devil's Bride (which TCM just showed again last night).

Any particular reason for him coming across as a prick?

I'm not the biggest fan of horror movies. Although I loved "The Shining" (I'm also a total Stephen King nut and have read many of his books), "An American Werewolf In London" and "The Lost Boys".
