i remember seeing brainscan,wolf,new nightmare

bigdaddyhorse · 04-24-2006, 05:09 PM

Pulp Fiction
Interview With A Vampire
The Crow
Brainscan

Should've seen New Nightmare, but ads were confusing and I wasn't sure it was Freddy or not so I didn't. Bummed I missed Killing Zoe and Natural Born Killers as well.
Too bad Love & A .45 did so poor, that's a favorite (just like everything else I missed) since seeing it on video.

KillerCannabis · 04-24-2006, 07:01 PM

Ugh. Easily one of the worst years for horror ever. Wolf sucked ass. I saw Interview..., New Nightmare, Brainscan, The Crow, Frankenstein, NBK and Puppet Masters.

maybrick · 04-24-2006, 07:31 PM

Pulp Fiction, Wolf, Interview with the Vampire, Ed Wood.

"Horror's weakest year?"

Absolutely.

04-25-2006, 03:23 AM

Interview With The Vampire
The Crow
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein
Wes Craven's New Nightmare
Brainscan

Wow, how did I see so few of these in '94 when I was seeing twice as many at the age of 6?

Not exactly "horror", but Ed Wood is one of my favorite movies.

"Karloff? Sidekick? FUCK YOU!!!!!"

WesReviews · 04-25-2006, 05:13 AM

I still say 93 was weaker...but not by much.

Luckily 95 was the year horror made a comeback.

04-25-2006, 05:21 AM

In the theater, I saw...

Pulp Fiction
Interview With The Vampire
Wolf (Worst werewolf makeup ever)
The Crow
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (I saw this so many times I account for half of the box office take)
Wes Craven's New Nightmare
Romeo Is Bleeding

Ed Wood played nowhere near me, and I was crushed. I rented it as fast as I could once it hit VHS.

Erick H. · 04-25-2006, 06:51 AM

I saw 16 from this list in the theater,including the little seen CRONOS,MOTHER'S BOYS,ROMEO MUST DIE,ED WOOD(twice)and HEAVENLY CREATURES.Most of the more interesting ones got pretty spotty releases.Thank God theres a nice arthouse theater twenty minutes from my home !

How is "Pulp Fiction" horror?

Anyway, it may not have been a year that set the box-office on fire, but there sure were some damn good films, IMHO..."Cronos", "Ed Wood", "The Puppet Masters", "The Crow", "Wes Craven's New Nightmare", "Serial Mom".....

I thought it was worth mentioning since most of 1994 kinda sucked.

Also, not on the list, Cemetery Man. I believe it played at the college theater that year for Halloween. Maybe it was '95, I can't recall.

When I went to see Blink at a matinee performance, I was alone in the cinema. Very spooky!

Saw at the cinema, Pulp Fiction, Blink, Interview with the Vampire, The Crow (London - Leicester Sq - THX), Natural Born Killers, Wolf and Romeo Is Bleeding.
