I looked in the Sunday TV Mag yesterday and saw Flight of The Navigator.. that was a wicked film.. then I remembered D.A.R.Y.L, another good one.
What movies can you remember from watching when you were young ?

Hehehhe, very true. Is it me or do they not age much. I have not seen it for a while now, but will have to again, just to see if they do :)

I've got Bad Taste and The Frighteners already. Bad Taste is wicked, because you can actually see his skills behind the camera improving over the 4 year period it took to shoot it!
And, yes, I only heard of Bad Taste (although I had seen some of it before without realising) after Pete Jackson became uber-famous, but The Frighteners was got totally independent of this.

Totally crap, but just one of those old favourites.

You haven’t seen it?!??!!
Buy immediately, and if possible, get it together with “Bad taste” and “Meet the Feebles”, all by Peter Jackson (Yes LOTR fame.)
You’ll laugh your ass off for weeks.
“Heavenly Creatures” is another good one by him, although “The Frighteners” left me cold.
That’s one thing that always tickles me, people tracking down Jacksons earlier films after seeing his Lord of the Rings Trilogy (well, the first two so far.)
“Oh, meet the Feebles? Peter Jackson? Muppets on acid? Must be good”
(cue forward a few hours)
“…..what is this sick and depraved filth I’m watching?!?!?!??!!??”
;) ;) ;)

I'm after Braindead actually. Is it anygood? I think it's under £10 on Play.
> Ticks.

> crap, I can't remember.
clichéd crap if I remember correctly. There was next to no gore or tick attacks in it.
A cheesy low budget horror film starring Carlton from The Fresh Prince of Bel Air and Scott Evil.
They're amongst a group of troublesome inner-city kids who go camping in the forest as part of some city youth project, but what they find is more terrifying and horrific than anyone could ever imagine; oversized killer ticks!
It could be an ironic B-movie spoof, or just plain clichéd crap, I can't remember.
> It's either that or Kangaroo Jack - you see my dilemma?
Phhhho. A difficult choice indeed. Go for "Cradle of Fear" starring the lead singer from Cradle of Filth. Thats a good gore fest, if you are into that sort of thing ;)
Predictable, but I havn't seen gore at that level since "Brain Dead"
