Dammit X! That post was totally Rep worthy, and I haven't spread enough around. Dammit, dammit, dammit.
Your face got a little lame. Part 4 is the best in the damn series. Don't you dare sully the good name of slasher films and Friday the 13th in front of me boy, that's infractin' talk!
Oh come ON! That's the one where he went from realistically creepy and totally believable psychopath killer to ... superman in a hockey mask. It was fucking stupid.
What made F13 so good was the plausibility of it. Sure there's quite a bit of suspension of disbelief involved but it was uncomfortably in the realm of possibility as it was just some dude off his rocker massacring people. It went from there to campy bullshit when they gave him fucking superpowers.
Realistic? Jason was never realistic. Ever. He's a mongoloid in a hockey mask/bag murdering teenagers in the woods because the ghost of his mother tells him to. He's always been superhuman, the dude gets stabbed, hung, shot, and macheted nine ways to Sunday in the first few films.
F13 was ALWAYS campy, from the very first film. The entire franchise was based off just ripping off the Halloween films but giving audiences the gore that Carpenter didn't give them in the original Halloween. None of the F13 films are "good" films per se, but they're all enjoyable, and the first seven in particular are the most enjoyable.
Who are you calling cretins? Please Dexy's Midnight Runner, I've forgotten more about horror films than you've learned
Touche.
It's a fucking perfect night for Halloween. Around 60 degrees, cloudy, wind blowing hard so leaves are flying everywhere, creepy sounding wind chimes mingling with distant thunder from a storm that'll hit at some point later tonight...
Goddamn I love it. I might go for a walk.

I tend to like Halloween but scary movies and me aren't really good bed fellows. I was petrified by What lies beneath, and watching The Decent gave me nightmares a couple of years ago 
I did watch half of Halloween the origonal last year so maybe I am getting a little better.
Watching Buffy at the moment- does that count at all?

Do I even lift?
I can't wait till Halloween starts over here. It's my favorite holiday as well. I love just about everything about Halloween.
I'm not sure what scary movies I wanna watch. But Hocus Pocus and Halloweentown are my also my favorites. I try to watch those every year. I think I'll just watch whatever is put on tv.
And I may be a bit too old, but trick or treating is just about the funnest part of halloween.

Who cares how old you are? If it's something you like doing then keep on doing it and don't worry about what people say just because of your age.
Easy to say when you're not the one buying the candy to hand out to these smartass teenagers. Had a little douchebag show up at my door last year wearing sunglasses and a pair of gardening gloves. I asked him what he was supposed to be and he said "Whatever, I just want candy."
I suggested he get a job and buy his own candy and shut the door. So yeah, in this particular case, age definitely matters. Good rule of thumb, if you've started shaving, you probably shouldn't be off begging door to door for free candy.
