Dear Hammer Studios, now that you've made The Woman In Black, make a vampire movie like that. Please?
They do still have a window of time in which they could make a vampire movie and cast Christopher Lee in it.
The money was too good. I got stupid.

Oh, dear. I'm so sorry, Jilli. So now Hollywood has decided that camp can't just ruin comic book movies, it has to ruin horror too?

Because books.
It seems like a combination of Love at First Bite and The Addams Family, or something. Really not what I expected.

Oh well, at least he's not constantly going back re-edit crappy stuff into The Nightmare Before Christmas and Beetlejuice

I hope it's as good as Addams Family Values.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I don't know what to think about that trailer. I'm much less interested in DS than I was.

That performance by Johnny looked rather like his performance in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
I expect a similar tone.

I hadn't though of that, what a terrifying idea.

I KNOW. C'mon Hammer, you know you want to!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Well, it's written by the guy who wrote Pride and Prejudice and Zombies and Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter, so, yeah, definitely a comedy. (Although the Lincoln movie looks like a serious, badass action movie.)

Just caught the 80s Flash Gordon. I've got to say the 80s was the perfect decade to make that movie. 80s style art direction suited it perfectly. And the complete shamelessness of the over the topness. Not straight faced exactly, but the bits were delivered without ever winking at the audience. Even Flash being able to fight off the guards once he had a football shaped rock to hold. They were too busy moving the absurd plot forward to stop and rub any one joke in. High cheese definitely. Camp definitely. High camp? Not sure of the definition of the last. A really fun bad 80s movie. With a Queen sound track yet.
