Favourite Double Bills

Sometimes you watch one movie, and then you want to another right after, ya know? What are your favourtie double bills?

A few of mine are:

Escape From New York & The Road Warrior
Halloween (1978) & Halloween II (1981)
Clerks. & Clerks II
Dazed and Confused & Fast Times at Ridgemont High
The Terminator & Terminator 2
Robocop (1987) & The Terminator

And a few triple bills:

The Evil Dead trilogy
A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More, & The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
Friday the 13th Parts 4, 5, & 6 (aka "the Tommy Jarvis trilogy")
Halloween, Halloween II, Halloween III
Back to the Future trilogy
Night of the Living Dead (1968), Dawn of the Dead (1978), & Day of the Dead (1985) (although I still love to watch Land of the Dead too)
Original Star Wars trilogy
Indiana Jones trilogy

Good for the soul

Ahh... good to watch this, every now and then. There's a clip of a Day of the Dead cast reunion out there somewhere too. That one is probably even better than this, but, whatever.

New-ish Feature: Sub-Domains

Authorized users can now create sub-domains, which are basically what "zones" used to be, but they have a different url, slightly improved functionality, and are hopefully slightly more convenient. Sub-domains will be limited to the home page only. Example:

https://troma.trashepics.com instead of https://trashepics.com/zone/troma/

For the Troma domain, all posts tagged with "troma" will be displayed, as well as all posts grouped under a movie tagged "troma". This will make it easier to have them appear in the zone/domain. Sub-domains now include a search feature, relevant news, and forum/post display toggles.

I had to re-arrange a lot of shit to make these work, so if I fucked up your zone, yell at me.

Someone remind me to do this

God, I love this so much.

Favorite horrors with an abrupt ending?

There were apparently some 70's horrors with such an abrupt ending, they omitted end-credits.

Lady Frankenstein
The Night Evelyn came out of the Grave
The Horror Express

These are the ones I'm aware of, so they're my favorites by default. Share thy own.

Any appropriately-watched horror?

Not sure if I have or not, but I admit I don't recall watching ''Valentine'' on Valentine's Day, or anything similar.

I do, however, plan on watching "Sublime" on my birthday in September.
If you (like myself) haven't seen the film, but have read the premise, you're aware that it pertains to a man on his 40th birthday (which I'll be celebrating this time around).
Share thy app-watched horror stories.

TX Frightmare 2016

Reposting this from imdb, but with pictures.

On Saturday, April 30th (also happened to be Walpurgis Night), I went to TX Frightmare Weekend, and I figured I'd share my experience like I always do. Here's the guest list: https://www.texasfrightmareweekend.com/guests/



I did Saturday only, from opening till 7. I went with my pal bodyguard Justin. He met a few, I met a few...

Charles Band of Full Moon - pic ($0). Short line. Really cool dude. I attended a screening of a movie of his, "Trophy Heads", and he gave us all free beer.

My friend met:

Danielle Harris, actress - 8x10 + pic ($30?). Short line. Sexy as fkkk, like always! Since I'm holding the camera, and she's smiling like that at the camera, she's kinda smiling like that... to ME. I can bust a nut to that idea for the rest of my life probably.
https://scontent-dfw1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13095856_1041471632612884_6600326755920437661_n.jpg?oh=20dc7da10808d2f5108c0bb497ed0fa5&oe=579BB26A

Ira Heiden, actor/wizard-master - 8x10 + pic ($35). No line. Friendly dude, still looks like a total nerd.
https://scontent-dfw1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13164407_1043052992454748_583847776147003685_n.jpg?oh=a83a9c0caeca2e1e3a9bc3bbf09762a5&oe=57A94CFF

Mitch Pileggi, actor - 8x10 + pic ($40?). Short line. Upbeat and not menacing.

Didn't buy from, just talked to:

Andras Jones, actor - $25 for 8x10, or $40 for 8x10 + pic? No thanks. No line. Pretty cool dude, we talked about Star Wars for a bit.



I wanted to meet Robert Englund, but his line was enormous. It wrapped around the place and since he talks his fans' ears off, the line really doesn't move. $80 for 8x10 + pic. At least I can say that I've stood within 10 feet of Freddy Krueger.

Also, there were plenty of sexy hos with big titties. And skinny hos with no tits that were also hot.

If there's anyone on that guest list you want to know about, I'll tell you my thoughts on them.

Strange things you're picky about?

One "strange" thing I've always been picky about has been the end-credit song.

I'm the type of guy that remains sitting in the theater till the movie's completely over. True story.
I don't think they're terrible films, but I didn't like "Blue moon" at the end of American Werewolf In London, nor did I like "Smoke gets in your eyes" at the end of Kill Me Again.

I thought The Hitcher remake was fairly well-executed throughout, and while I thought it could've benefited from better casting, my biggest problem with it was actually the annoying/pretentious/excessively noisy end-credit song. Share your strangest pet-peeve.

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes (1978)

GOD I love this movie. I have been reminded of it a lot lately, because of Trump. Everyone keeps saying he's Hitler. Have they ever even considerd the possibility that he is merely DISGUISED as Hitler? No! What fools they are.

Your drug personalities

I like being intoxicated to a certain degree, because my personality improves, me thinks. Weed makes me enthused about anything, and booze makes me... I don't know... drunk? I'm a happy, retarded drunk. And if I do both, I become SO incredibly awesome, I can't even describe it. Probably because I pass the fuck out.

What about you?
