Post by: clibinarium on 12 June 2012, 07:59:06 PM
I thought this was quite well done. By no means are they all classics, but its a nice idea.

I'm surprised no one has got "The Warriors" (its the one with the baseball moons icon)
I frekin love that film, I still can't help putting empty bottles on my fingers when I have a drink and click em together while saying, " warriors come out to play -ay..."! ;D

Its not Halloween, thats Jason Vorhees in Friday the 13th , He's the one in the hockey mask, Michael Myers (Not to be confused with the actor Mike myers of Austin Powers etc) wears a white painted creepy mask.

OK heres a bit of Michael Myers trivia, when John Carpenter made the film, they had trouble finding a suitable scary mask for the killer, so he told the production team to go and try to find the cheapest but creepiest mask/image they could for him (as they were on a budget) The winner was the now iconic myers we all know, but the mask he wears is an actual "Star Trek captain Kirk cheap halloween mask" painted white and the hair messed up, if you look at him you can sort of tell it was supposed to be Will Shatner, sort of!
I'm a bit of a horror movie nerd, sorry! ;)
