Glad to be of service. I recently saw him in The Wicker Man, which is a pretty strange piece of 70's horror.

I love that movie. AWESOME! Very creepy....a classic.

The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

I liked it too, but not sure I would attach 'classic' status to it. And modern audiences would probably find it laughable.

Yeah, well "modern audiences" laughed at The Exorcist. Classic may be too much, but it is must see IMO for fans of horror/thrillers.

Most people feel cheated by a horror flick if they aren't bathed in arterial spray within the first few minutes. I actually hear people make decisions on what to rent based on what the movies are rated. "AVP isn't any good, it's only pg-13."

I still cannot find that movie funny in any way. I recently watched it with my husband, and 3 other people and they were laughing! I couldn't believe it. I was so creeped out! I saw that movie for the first time when I was only 12 or something and it scared the crap out of me then too. Sad

I don't like gore-fest movies as a general rule, but I tend to be disappointed if a horror movie is anything less than R rated.

P.S. There was way more wrong with AVP than it being only PG-13. :p

I watched most of it on cable a few weeks ago and I was still freaked out by it as well.

Has anyone seen the "Version You've Never Seen" ? I saw some of it on cable soon after it came out. I didn't like the change to the ending. Any other opinions?

I saw "The Exorcist" in Pittsburgh in January 1974. We had just moved back into the dorm before Spring semester, and only half of us were back on campus. I think it was Friday night, but anyway, a BUNCH of us went to see it together at the theatre. I thought it was great, but many of the guys who had toked up before going were totally freaked by it. When we got back, they doubled up if their roomies hadn't come back yet. Since I wasn't high when I saw it, I can't tell you why they were so freaked.
