Anyone watch this today? (Oct 31st)


In 20 years I have only missed one Halloween (1996)

Otherwise it is a tradition with me since it got released.

I always set aside 2 hours every Halloween to watch this!

I wish I had. Sadly, I lost my copy and I'm having a hard time finding a new one...I can't seem to find the soundtrack anywhere either and my cassette broke. Sadness...I LOVE this movie. I wish they still aired it on TV on Halloween night. I have a few songs from the soundtrack(best stuff Fastway EVER did), but I wish I had all of them!

The DVD sells for only $6 on some websites-- try amazon.com. They sell used VHS copies for only 0.78 cents currently (plus shipping). I don't have the DVD, even though its real cheap. I still use the same VHS copy I have had for the past 20 years (I taped it off of Showtime in the 80's)

I was out Trick or Treating with my friends kids...so I didn't get the chance to watch it on the actual night! I think I'll invite a few buddies over this Friday night (November 2nd) and watch it then!

Yep, I did. Kind of funny, the first time I seen this movie was Halloween Night 1987. So, here I am 20 years later doing the same thing.

Man, have times changed!!

You saw it first on Halloween Night 1987--- Me too! I was 11 years old and ordered the 8 PM showing off of the pay-per-view, and really enjoyed it. Ever since then, it has been a tradition to watch it every Halloween, with the exception of 1996, I wasn't able to squeeze it in my day.

Well...that depends on your own personal taste! This movie is 21 years old and definitely isn't for everyone! If you don't like low-budget movies or rock music I would have to say no! But to us 80's metal lovers (right, midgetorgy? Lol) the answer is a resounding YES...it is a good movie! But reserve your judgment until after you've seen it! If you like it, that's cool! If you don't...that's also cool!

Cool! Give it a go and then tell us what you thought of it! We 80's metalheads appreciate all input on this film! Peace, gr450! \m/ \m/

Just finished watching it again, some traditions are hard to stop. To think I saw this for the first time 21 years ago today on Pay Per View!

Here I am again, what is this... fourth post on this board in a row? Just finished watching it again (on a VHS Videocassette where i taped it off of Showtime in 1988)-- the 80's were a decade never to be matched when it came to film! Obviously I live the 80's if I am still using VHS!
