In Space No One Can Eat Ice Cream!

Killer Klowns from Outer Space

When a small town is invaded by aliens from outer space who are capturing and killing the townspeople, no one takes them seriously. Why? The aliens all look like circus clowns, use weapons that look clown like, and all have painted on smiles. Only a few of the young people in the town realize the danger and of course no one believes them. Armed with an ice cream truck they try and rescue their friends. Source.

This is one of those deliciously lame movies, that easily turns into a classic. And apparently some people are demanding a sequel. Here.

The Thing

An American scientific expedition to the frozen wastes of the Antarctic is interrupted by a group of seemingly mad Norwegians pursuing and shooting a dog. The helicopter pursuing the dog crashes leaving no explanation for the chase. During the night, the dog mutates and attacks other dogs in the cage and members of the team that investigate. The team soon realises that an alien life-form with the ability to take over other bodies is on the loose and they don't know who may already have been taken over. Source.


"The Thing" by John Carpenter was one of the first horror movies I saw and I'm not surprised that it is considered a classic. Worth seeing again and again.

The Exorcist

Blatty's novelization of a real case of possession that happened in a Washington Suburb (Mt. Ranier, MD) puts Regan, an adolescent girl, Living with her mother in Georgetown in Washington, into a more and more difficult situation. She exhibits strange symptoms, including levitation and great strength. When all medical possibilities are exhausted, her mother is sent to a priest who is also a psychiatrist. He becomes convinced that Regan is possessed and he and a second priest experienced in exorcism try to drive the spirit from Regan before she dies. Very graphic for its time. Source.

Definitly a must see movie. A classic.

It was one of the best horror movies I have seen lately. You can see the trailer here.





Ps- the director of the movie is Rob Zombie and there is already a sequel...

You are Jack Goodman, from "American Werewolf in London." You tell it like it is, man.
