Nadja, Showgirls and Powder were three of the funniest movie theater experiences I've ever had. About ten of us went to see these movies and it was just nonstop laughter. Dammit, I wish I'd seen Shallow Grave in the theater! :cry:

I see Ryan mentioned Batman Forever. That film earns the dubious distinction of being the only film I've ever walked out on. HATED that movie. I also may have seen Virtuosity in the theater... I really can't remember.

A thin movie-going year for me - Se7en, Species, Judge Dredd.

I caught a few of these that year

Demon Knight
Lord Of Illusions
Species
Tank Girl

I also saw Casper in theatres, but it was after it's initial run and playing as a matinee in a shool promotional discount thing. Other movies I remember playing with this were things such as Babe and Flipper.

I caught quite a few that year. Some good titles, but still not a good year for horror.

Halloween 6: The Curse of Michael Myers

I wanted desperately to see Showgirls, but I was only 16 at the time and didn't live near a theater that was showing it. I was just starting my junior year of high school and had lusted after Tiffani-Amber Thiessen and Elizabeth Berkley on Saved by the Bell from 1989 to 1993. I couldn't believe Berkley was going to be in this movie. I was very disappointed that I didn't get to see it, but now I've got the VIP DVD and can watch it on my 60 inch HDTV anytime I want.

Return of the Texas Chainsaw Massacre played in some theaters in 1995? I know the movie was shot during the summer of 1993 with the intentions of getting a wide theatrical release in the fall of 1994, but from what I recall it didn't get released until late September 1997 in a very limited theatrical run under the new title, Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation. It played in 1995?
