Running Scared
R
Hyper violent crime-thriller that's never dull during its 2 hour running time. The MTV editing gets a little annoying at times but otherwise it's a well made bloody good time.
The Other Side

You could do much worse than this creative, super-low budget (around $15,000), do-it-yourselfer. Decent cast, decent story with a decent twist. Director Bishop shows alot of promise.

The Fog

I love everything about this movie: the creepy foghorn blowing, the equally creepy score, the scene when the salt water comes in contact with the tape player and starts playing a low (creepy) voice of Blake, the diary which if you feeze it as Malone is flipping through the pages gives a rather raunchy description of some woman, JC's brief role, the really bad elevator music that Stevie Wayne's radio station plays, Blake and his (yes, creepy) crew, the in-jokes of peoples names, Jamie Lee Curtis, Adrienne Barbeau, Hal Holbrook, Darwin Joston, George "There ain't no fog bank out there" Flowers and Tom Freakin' Atkins. Amen.
Halloween

Others may have come before it, (i.e. Twitch of the Death Nerve; Black Christmas) but no one ever did it as good as John Carpenter with this still effective slasher that begat more ripoffs than any other film.
