Vorhees13 · 08-03-2010, 02:34 PM

Thought this would be a fun thread.

For me, here they are

1. April Fools Day
2. Return Of the Living Dead
3. Halloween 2
4. Friday the 13th Part IV - Final Chapter
5. Nightmare on Elm St 3 - Dream Warriors

Here is a cool site if you need a cheat sheet.

If it did not have Halloween in the title,It could get away with more praise from some Horror Fans.

I enjoy this Film myself,but it should never of had anything to do with the Halloween Franchise.

TotoroDragon · 08-03-2010, 04:04 PM

The Car used to be a fave of mine,My Older cousin used to watch it when he was over.

I was led to believe it was released in the early 80's,until i found out it was a 70's Film.

snoman_99 · 08-03-2010, 04:06 PM

The Thing definately needs to be put on the list.

Are you talking about The Thing with all the special features from the dvd intact?
Because The Thing is already available on BD. Sorry, I'm confused as usual.

Also, this thread shows that there is a major need to get a lot more 80s horror films onto Blu-ray.

Here is an old one from the 70's I have been waiting for: The Evil. This movie has never been released to DVD ... Prince of Darkness is also a favorite of mine.
