My bad...I'm misremembering...It was A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE...

Cronenberg can get out in left field. Have:

Eastern Promises
The Fly
A History Of Violence

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

The Fly is a all time great in my book.

I will always prefer the original:

It has the incomparable Vincent Price!

I love the original too, and Vincent Price can do no wrong in my book. However, I do like the Cronenberg version as well even though I'm not normally a huge fan of remakes.

I do love Vincent Price but Geena Davis is something more than love.

Ha! Those would also be the ones I own, but on dvd.

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.

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.
