Really like it but the remake is way superior.

We will NEVER agree on that.

Geena Davis or not, Jeff Goldblum kinda gets on my nerves.

I will take ANY Vincent Price movie over any Jeff Goldblum movie.

Oh yes, was a treat to get The Abominable Dr. Phibes and Dr. Phibes Rises Again on BD. Still have the DVD's.

I am happy to have:

and several stand alone titles.

You can't have too much Vincent Price.

Vincent Price is a legend but I’m judging the film, not the actors.

I am judging both. The original wins on both counts.

You will be telling me ‘The Thing From Another World’ is better than ‘The Thing’ next.

Besides, a film fanatic that hasn’t seen ‘The Wicker Man’ cannot be taken seriously!

It probably is, but I have not seen it in ages. I need to rewatch it. I actually DO have the blu-ray.

I don't want to be taken seriously by anyone. I want to be taken in their arms.

Joking aside, love ‘The Thing’. My second favourite Carpenter film.

Eastern Promises
The Fly
A History Of Violence

Will pass on Crimes of the Future. Really like Viggo Mortensen in Appaloosa and Hidalgo.

I have these three Movies in my Digital Collection, and I vote for The Fly remake with Jeff Goldblum and Geena Davis I've watched that Movie several times!

I so seldom get to say this to you:

Brilliant films. In the UK, Arrow Video released these two films plus several of the Edgar Allan Poe adaptations by Roger Corman, again with Vincent Price - and for me personally, the best set of films Arrow have put out.

I would say The Thing is my favourite Carpenter film, but to his credit the man has made some belters, so it's a tough one to call.

Halloween for me mate, like you say, tough call though.

I have a soft spot for ‘The Fog, even though it’s inferior to those two films.

[crutzulee]

Halloween for me as well.

I love the original FLY.... but the remake gets the nod by a slim margin for being shot in my hometown..

The Thing is also my favorite Carpenter film and is in fact in my top 10 all time favorites.

I may have these in my digital collection as well but probably never be watched via IPTV because I have the disc.

I posted some IPTV speeds several post back, MA was much better than Vudu. Prime does pretty good with their own UHD originals at 15 Mbps, with The Rings of Power at 20 Mbps. Will check The Batman on prime soon and see how it compares to MA and Vudu.

Liked The Thing but Escape from New York is my favorite Carpenter film.
