This reminds me, I must give that ROTLD documentary a re-watch (a thoroughly good doc, highly recommended for all ROTLD fans. What documentary would that be? I'm a sucker for behind the scenes docs. Even though I'm not the biggest fan of RotLD, I'd still love to see an in-depth making-of. There's one on the American DVD that's maybe 20-30 minutes long, is that what you're referencing, or something more substantial?

Here you go.

Thanks, fellas. That's a decent little documentary. Quite a bit of the "family and fun" cliche talk, but that's to be expected to some extent with all making-of's.

Thanks, fellas. That's a decent little documentary. Quite a bit of the "family and fun" cliche talk, but that's to be expected to some extent with all making-of's. True, but there was also a fair bit of candor from what I recall (certain cast members distinctly not getting along, albeit being somewhat coy/diplomatic about it on-camera). The folks who made that doc also did the excellent retrospectives for the Elm Street and Friday 13th series (Never Sleep Again, and Crystal Lake Memories - both of which are highly recommended viewing).

Yeah, I caught Never Sleep Again on Netflix and it was really good. Close to four hours long, iirc!

An excellent doc that made me appreciate the series more, although I still think parts 4 through 6 are a bit meh ... inventive in many ways, but not in the slightest bit scary, and increasingly silly ("Now I'm playing with power!") The story of those movies getting made is more interesting than those particular movies themselves. A fascinating documentary, so it was - another one I'll stick on the 're-watch' list.

The Monster Squad - another 80's classic from Fred Dekker(Night of the Creeps) and Shane Black(Predator, Lethal Weapon). Cheesy yet extremely fun. 8/10

Eight strangers go into a locked room for clinical trials on a new drug that gives them superpowers. 7/10

......who made that doc also did the excellent retrospectives for the Elm Street and Friday 13th series (Never Sleep Again, and Crystal Lake Memories - both of which are highly recommended viewing). I've been searching for several days now and I can't seem to find Crystal Lake Memories. I was hoping it'd be on YouTube like the RotLD doc, but no such luck. I'm dying to see this thing, do one of you guys have a link for this one as well?

Circle 2015 Fifty people are in a dark room standing in red circles and get to vote who dies every two minutes. props for concept, flops for stereotypes. 4/5

Well worth the cash, though, particularly if you dug Never Sleep Again and More Brains. I've got it on 4-disc Blu-Ray/DVD (essentially two copies of the doc, on two formats), but there should be cheaper options (Blu-Ray or DVD) out there now.

The Babadook A modern horror film that doesn't rely on jump scares or gore and creates a building sense of fear with a deeper, personal meaning. Highly recommended. Especially while its halloween season! 9/10
