Sure it was cliched. But it was enjoyable cliche.harSon said:Like hell it was.

Huh? What has come out since that has made The Thing look bad in comparison?teruterubozu said:eh, it's all relative of course (and a Solo interjection is not unexpected).

Solo said:Prince of Darkness is easily his most criminally underseen and underrated. That movie (and its hypnotic score) will get into your head.
Solo said:He never stopped being the man, if if he did stop making quality films. Underrated as a director and severly underrated as a composer.
You should get back in there and teach those young whippersnappers what's what.teruterubozu said:I raved about Prince of Darkness in another thread, but got shot down for being an outdated old man. I guess that's why I safely call it "relative" now, to avoid the butthurt.

Just re-read my post. Great was the wrong word. 'Eh, not bad' is the right phrase.harSon said:How so?
It was overly short. Production budget of a home movie, because my god, that ghost's costume design was DREADFUL. As you said, the film was cliche'd as fuck. It relied on cheap scares and gore, in place of a legitimately scary atmosphere. The characters were shit.The twist ending was lifted straight from the movie Identity.

easily one of the best sci fi horror films ever.

JAGII said:So pleased to see the love for In the Mouth of Madness. I found that movie very effective, and scarier than even The Thing, in its own way.
Somehow, I've never seen The Prince of Darkness. I'll be sure to fix that tonight!
