I saw no evidence that that parrot screams 'Let me out'. I also note that the guy went into the house alone.

Man, I could learn a lot from him.

I far prefer this to the original.

And I think this would be absolutely awful to listen to.

Sorry, Bob, voting a comment down doesn't constitute a counter-argument.

Voted back up as an equally well considered rebuttal.

Bear in mind that you can't really compare it to the next generation like Nightmare on Elm St, Poltergeist etc. since they're already moving away from the straight-up slasher - more complex plots, adding mainstream elements like humour, and far bigger budgets.

The comparison to Halloween is reasonable since it really was a Halloween wannabe, but it's a bit like saying you're not as smart as Einstein.

Now, if you really want to diss the film, compare it to Evil Dead which came out only a year later on a smaller budget.

Hey, if you have a personality like mine you can get your picture on a restaurant wall really easily.

Well, at least behind the counter, with a 'do not serve' label. It's pretty much the same thing.

If I saw a cryptid that had minimal (at best) evidence of its existence, I wouldn't be casually documenting its unexpected appearance saying "... elusive creature, now it just squatted down...".

There'd be a lot more "HOLY FUCK! EVERYONE, LOOK! IT'S A FUCKING SASQUATCH! STOP THE TRAIN! PULL THE CORD! THIS IS FUCKING MONUMENTAL! IT'S AN ELUSIVE CREATURE! NOW IT JUST SQUATTED DOWN!"

Hang on. Maybe it's just a tone-of-voice thing. I take it back.

No. Not believable.

I distinctly saw him jogging, but I've watched pretty much all his movies and the lazy fecker never moves at more than a fast walk, at best.

I didn't understand a single word he said, but I've loved that song pretty much my whole life, so my confirmation bias tells me to think this guy's spot on in saying the tune's amazing.

If I remember correctly, on the back of his first couple of videos he started up a business doing decorations, so the yearly halloween one is essentially an ad/showcase of what he can offer.

Of course, I could go looking for evidence to corroborate this rather than relying on my own vague memories, but that's not really in the spirit of the internet, is it?

This is all true and it's a very cool turbine, but it doesn't scale up due to the forces on the disks.

Here's a nice explanation of how it works and why it won't scale: *related=https://videosift.com/video/Tesla-Turbine-The-interesting-physics-behind-it

Niiice. I'm a huge fan of cruelty for the benefit of the victim. Must *promote

That immediately made me think of...

It's nice to see how other people think.

Some time within about the last year I thought that since new content was running a bit low I changed my thinking on what I'd post. I started posting more obscure Monty Python stuff, and also videos that I didn't think were good enough for me to vote up, but that others might like.

This is why I also have a few 0s floating around.

Interestingly, a few that I've posted and not voted grew on me enough to vote for. My mind doesn't seem to do what I tell it to.

At first I thought this was pretty unimaginative, then it got weird. And then weirder and weirder until it got weird enough to *promote. Weird.
