  And the movie’s not too bad, either.

  I was pleasantly surprised with this movie. Still fairly formulaic (by today’s standards), but I was surprised that it was still suspenseful to me in places. That doesn’t happen very often.

  Too bad modern posters and packaging aren’t as cool. Funhouse was a nice idea that just didn’t work for some reason. The same can be said for most horror films, but this one in particular always struck me as being too restrained. Maybe the film makers were too self-conscious?

  I hate this movie.

  Cool poster, though. And I agree with you Cryopest. Horror movie posters used to be an art, much like VHS covers. Now, we usually get some type of “floating head” montage with every WB actor, or a severed body part.

  Bring back the fun!
