No, it's not. The acting in this film is really bad. If you're a horror fan and you're a person that loves the old slasher films then you'll love this film.<br /><br />I like all slasher films that I've seen in the past 5 years, but none of them beat Halloween.<br /><br | John Carpenter's Halloween<br /><br />Is it the greatest horror film? Well, this film has a lot of those, but is really just a great party. One of the greatest aspects of this film is that it allows you to go insane on stage as John Carpenter shows off his ability to turn in some of the most brutal and out-there scenes that we have seen in a long time. As usual, this is a perfect film for Halloween fans. As a whole, this film |

I don't even remember what the plot was. This was an awful flick. I wish I had time now to sit and watch this flick, I just don't see the point of it anymore. It was so un-Trent-like. There was absolutely no point to it whatsoever. I think it might | This was a movie that I had heard about all my life growing up, and I never felt that I had seen it. I did know that it was a bad flick, though, and I was intrigued, but I must have been in the wrong place. I had to wait a day or two before a friend was willing to give me a ride, so I was very lucky to have been spared. Anyway, this film was great. The actors are all great, but that's about it. |

The plot has a lot of twists and turns, and if it weren't for a couple of weak spots I would probably give this movie a 2/10.The story is excellent, and the acting was great. The movie will appeal to a number of different fans of all genres, and it has some really bad acting, such as the lead actress. The main character was really great as well. The whole thing |

The first time I saw this movie, I fell in love with it. | 2 | 19 | The first time I saw this movie, I fell in love with it. My favorite scene is when the kids are showing this special. It's funny and also has the same movie quality that "Dangerous" has. I love this movie because it's full of laughter. You can tell you're in a special film. It's not a comedy, but a horror movie, so it could be categorized as a thriller. I love the characters, and the script, and the voice actors, | The first time I saw this movie, I fell in love with it. What really got to me though was the acting. All the actors in this movie were awesome! There is never any of the "I need a break" attitude, but rather a happy/sad side of every single character. The actors are both extremely talented and believable (most of which have been played by a lot of different guys and gals).<br /><br />What really stood out for me was the |

As a kid it had a ton of killer blood and this film, the story-line was so horrible and creepy I could never get past it. It's just one of the many horror/comedy films of the 70's that made me a teenager who really hated horror movies.<br /><br />As of today though, I just love it.

I know you've never seen a "goth" film before, and I can certainly attest | Halloween is a film I have to get out and watch every time it comes on TV. I love it. The plot was cool, but the gore.

It is a wonderful mix of horror, fun, and suspense. Its just a matter of finding it. This was supposed to be made at a big studio? But it appears to have been made on a shoestring budget. All the actors have good chemistry with each other so the movie can stay entertaining without the studio involvement. The special effects were top-notch. It's so hard not to laugh with |
As I mentioned previously, John Carpenter's 1978 classic is one of the first | 2 | 19 | As I mentioned previously, John Carpenter's 1978 classic is one of the first and best works of genre fiction to be directed by another director.

Watching that movie and watching the original was both scary and disturbing.<br /><br />It's scary but not as bad as in the film. | With a simplistic story and an engaging heroine, this was the horror movie that introduced me to the subgenre. The direction was nothing short of great and the film moves along at a leisurely pace. The actors were perfect. My wife thought they acted to their strengths and it was a fun movie to watch. The supporting cast were not far behind. All-in-all this was one of those classics that you can enjoy for all ages. The one flaw that I did have with this film was |
It was "The Night HE Came Home," warned the posters for John Carpenter | 2 | 19 | It was "The Night HE Came Home," warned the posters for John Carpenter's classic psychological thriller. It was a good movie. In the last minutes, the main character's best friend, played by Jack Nicholson, died and in an instant, all three of the main characters were on life support. In what felt like an instant, this movie becomes one of the most touching in a long time. It does not follow the pattern of "Fame is fleeting and fleeting is the best," but that | It was "The Night HE Came Home," warned the posters for John Carpenter and the production design for the production that followed on the back of the poster. The theme of John and Mary came up on the poster which also showed a little boy playing with a puppet, an old man who was dressed in the old garb (like the puppet shown in "The Night he came home") was actually dressed for a parade, but it was a parade of sorts.

The first was seeing "Lunar Anachronisms" at the Cinerama Dome in Hollywood. The second is when my father drove me to the theater in Los Angeles for this film with the help of a car rental office. The cast of characters in this film are from classic Hollywood and they all share one thing. They're very well acted. I especially love the performance of John Cusack as the head of the family. Everyone | There are two movie experiences I will always cherish. The first was seeing "The Natural" a few years back. I still remember it. The other is watching this movie on DVD. It was very disappointing. The story was so forced. There was no suspense whatsoever. No plot. You have to see this movie to see for yourself. All I can say is how could I give it a 10. I would not recommend it to anyone. If I was a parent, I wouldn't watch it |

The release of John Carpenter's "Halloween", a year before its release as "The Thing in the Ice Box", and the release of Tim Burton's "Batman", in 1979. "Batman" was a box-office smash and the movie which gave the first-ever appearance of Tim Burton as Batman, set the standard for all future films with their high-contrast darkness, surreal moods, and intense comic-book comic-book-like atmosphere. " | In 1978 a phenomenon began. The release of John Carpenter's "Halloween". Horror fans were not only waiting for a sequel to that. There was also a cult following which was looking for a new film to fill the void left by the recent (and in my opinion, a better) movies such as "Friday the 13th". That was around the time of "Cronenberg's" films: "The House on the Rock" and "Curse of the Jade Scorpion". They also released |

"Ah! That's the moment!" That was what I was talking about!<br /><br />The film is almost done, but, well | I have only managed to see this classic for the first time a few weeks since my college days back in the late sixties but what a treat it is. I have never been a fan of the English films and this was by far the best ever. This is a great story which is almost a parody of other stories which is a true story.

Sure it has some great performances by everyone, it has some great sets, it has a good plot that just can't be ignored, but really, it just seems like a very badly done film with terrible direction, an unbelievably bad script, a very poor acting by the likes of George Burns (who was supposedly nominated for a best supporting actor Oscar for this), and a completely stupid plot. | This Showtime movie really deserves a far better viewer rating than a 4.5 out of 10.

The acting really is very disappointing. They just have such an irritating quality to them. The plot and characters all just feel so flat. The plot just seems like a total drag on the movie. |

So, I guess this is the film that got them all over the | Greetings again from the darkness. Mary Heron is amassing quite the collection of material, this is not the least of which has been an important role in several of her films. The new film series has been on for quite some time and although this film may not have been in the initial plans as I've seen it was something that really came to fruition. I didn't see a very convincing performance from Gwyneth Paltrow as the title character and the script was very difficult to follow |

Despite looking interesting, I watched The Notorious as a total bore, even though I had been expecting something like this from HBO (yes, that's the actual name of the cable channel, not a spoof, as the HBO spoof was just the latest attempt to keep viewers entertained with the latest Hollywood movies).<br /><br />Nothing about this film made sense whatsoever.<br /><br />The screenplay was incoherent and uninspired.<br /><br | I am not going to lie. Despite looking interesting, I watched The Notorious Black Mambas in January of 2000. I'm surprised the movie didn't go back into the vault for more. That being said, I am disappointed I watched The Big Red One, The Notorious Black Mambas, & The Red One so close together. There's a reason the movie is dubbed into Hindi as "Hina." There's another reason as well. There are two characters that really stand out |

So, my opinion on this film is that it is so boring I couldn't sit through it without falling asleep, and so bad the most ridiculous thing would be the joke. Which wasn't a joke though. The plot twists were so lame that it was hard to believe they actually went through the plot anyway. The acting was the worst I've ever seen it in a while.<br / |

It's one of those movies that will have you laughing | Hey guys I'm actually in this movie! I didn't even know it was happening in the cinema because there was the video store.

I would not bother to watch it if it were not for the director who clearly just had a real job at his back.<br /><br />It was a nice piece of fun with all of the actors in it.

This is definitely the most intense fight scene ever. I think he | Though I really didn't feel anything for Lance's character, and felt his character was a bore, there was just something wrong with the script, it just didn't work, and the performance couldn't even be summed up by that. I wouldn't even like to comment on the storyline, I thought the script was a little confusing at times. In the end, he was all about the drama, and that is what this movie was really about.

I can honestly say I have | When I started to watch this movie on VH-1 I cringed so hard that I burst into tears. It is a complete and utter waste of time. I honestly thought it was not worth even an hour of my life. I watched a few scenes I thought I'd see again. Then I got to about the 1 hour mark and it really got bad.
