I finally watched Trick Or Treat, I guess I'd always dismissed it because the DVD cover was so bad but I really loved it. Being a metal head helped too.

That movie has one of the most unreal casts ever. Like maybe one of my top 5 favorite casts.

I mentioned it before but all true Dourif fans should watch Spontaneous Combustion, a 1990 Tobe Hooper film in which our man has the power to spontaneously combust.

Voyager in general is a massive waste of great characters.

I disagree in that I don’t think voyager had great characters beyond Kim and Paris.

Of course the biggest problem with voyager was that Janeway was literally better than everyone else at their own jobs.

An enterprise crewed entirely by Picards wouldn’t last a week, voyager crewed entirely by janeways would have reached earth in a week.

Nah most folks on that ship were cool imo or least fine. Then Enterprise was the opposite they had a cool premise and initial take on the setting and then squandered it with characters I almost universally couldn't stand.

Voyager had a cool premise too, they just mostly forgot about it a few episodes into the show.

The Voyager cast’s best horror films:

Robert Beltran: Night of the Comet
Robert Picardo: Gremlins 2
Kate Mulgrew: A Stranger Is Watching (?)
Jeri Ryan: Dracula 2K (???)

The Rest: :confused:

I've seen it several times since it came out on VHS back in the day. Never knew until recently that the guy who played Sammi Curr was also the white gang leader in Michael Jackson's "Beat It" video.

Great soundtrack, too.

Late to shark movie chat but there’s a pretty good little movie called The Reef, it’s pretty standard fair but still quite fun and apparently involved a lot if real sharks.

Deep blue sea remains king of all non-jaws related shark movies however,

This seems like as good a place as any to list my reasons why I believe Star Trek First Contact is a horror movie:

1. The borg are zombies
2. body horror happens
3. the borg queen is sort of a witch if you think about it
4. uh... Worf.

Borg queen's played by Alice Krieg who's been in a bunch of horror movies.

Captain Picard is played by Patrick Stewart, who has suffered from male pattern balding since a very young age and that terrifies most men.

She also played Mary Shelley once, and she invented the SciFi/Horror genre (which is what Star Trek First Contact definitely is).

Janos was a name Bobby Pickett used in a couple of songs like Monster’s Holiday and Monster Mash Party. I think he was possibly just trying to think of another Igor-esque name for a horror henchman, but it’s possible he was specifically referencing the henchman from Lugosi’s Murders in the Rue Morgue, or even Karloff’s character in the Invisible Ray, but he was a scientist and not a henchman
