A few more recommended horror films for Halloween

FINAL EXAM-80s slasher, done pretty well

SHADOWS (Dean Koontz) -starring a young Ben Affleck , who is good here. Unfortunately, it also has Rose McGowan, but you can't have everything.

MY BLOODY VALENTINE -legend of a crazed miner comes back to haunt a small town

BUG no, not the recent film, the 1980s one, think it had Bradford Dillman and Patricia McCormack in it. A bunch of huge prehistoric cockroaches with rather unusual abilities is unearthed with dire results. Believe this was another of William Castle's gems.

I've seen My Bloody Valentine. That movie still freaks me out.

Btw there's a semi-new movie out called "Day of the Dead 2: Contagium" is really really sucks. I couldn't even make it to the end.

Darkseid: just came back from seeing Quarantine. I recommend it if you like shaky-camera films and confinement movies. Though it might be more of a rental. Still one of the better scary films to come out in a while but pales in comparison to classics.

The ending was really an adrenaline rush, and added a lot of story line that I thought it had lost during the middle of the film (they tell you what it was).

Anyway no spoilers.
