I am surprised that # 24 (Re-Animator) got such good reviews - didn't really like it all that much

I saw it on AMC and they blurred out the nudity so perhaps they cut a few scenes as well?

21. The Conjuring (2013)

A family is terrorized by evil spirits in their new home and call on a paranormal investigation couple to help them. This is a very scary movie and well done. 9/10

 

[muskrat]

The Devil Bat (1941). Lugosi as a disgruntled small town Doctor who uses giant mutated bats to exact vengeance on the wealthy family who swindled him. The bats are drawn to, get this, a special shaving lotion Lugosi designed to attract the flying monsters. He woulda got away with it, too, had it not been for that meddling reporter and his wisecracking photog. A poverty row cheapie made memorable only by Bela...barely. Good for a chuckle or two.

Poor Bela.

 

[do1you9love?]

17) Zombieland (2009) – Another favorite. Best. Zombie. Movie. Ever. Rule #22 – When in doubt, know your way out. 5.5 of 5
18) The Dark Half (1993) – Almost put as FTV but I’m pretty sure I did watch it years ago. It was ok. I had a hard time because I have a certain picture of Stark and Alan Pangborn and the actors didn’t do it for me. Still, close enough for rock & roll. 3.5 of 5
19) Corpse Bride (2005) – FTV – A young man, nervous about his arranged marriage is practicing his vows in the forest. When he places the ring on what he thinks is a branch, but is actually a dead girl’s finger, he’s pulled into the land of the dead as her husband. This is a Tim Burton movie with his usual quirks and depth. The dead are colorful and fun, while the living are dark and somber. 3.5 of 5

24. Fender Bender (FTV)
Psycho killer drives around causing light damage to cars of single ladies so he can exchange insurance information with them, which he then uses to stalk and kill them. "First he hits you, then he gits you!" How could they have missed the chance to use that as a tag line? Anyway, what starts out as a promising low-budget version of "Death Proof" develops a serious case of the stupids about halfway through. Despite having cell phones featured as a major part of this movie, no one ever seems to think to call 911. Found myself shouting at the screen far too often: "JUST CALL 911 YOU IDIOT!" It's a shame because the first 45 minutes weren't bad, had sort of a classic slasher thriller vibe going. But I just couldn't get past the lazy writing, unrealistic decisions and plot holes. Well, at least it was half good.

2 out of 5 stars.

This masked villain may, in fact, be the love child of Darth Vader and "The Gimp" from Pulp Fiction.....

[carrie's younger brother]

Turner Classic Movies continued their tribute to Frankenstein last night with Frankenstein Created Woman from 1967. This is yet another installment in the Hammer series starring Peter Cushing. By far not the best of the bunch but still atmospheric in its own way. In this one Baron Frankenstein is obsessed with capturing the souls of the dead and transplanting them into the recently deceased. Like I said not the best Hammer Horror, but it has its moments. This movie poster make it MUCH more interesting looking than it really is.

I think they were trying to make him look like an extension of his car, with the headlight eyes and the grille for a mouth.

This would have been better.

Yeah, their Frankenstein movies are hit and miss quality wise (except for Curse of, by God, that's a masterpiece), but Peter Cushing is a delight in each one. I really dig his interpretation of the Victor Frankenstein character.
