As far as Elm Street goes. To me they are all rubbish, yet strangely i enjoyed the remake. I'll get my coat.
I quite like Jason X – it sets the bar quite low but does exactly what it sets out to do.

I can take or leave most of the Nightmare on Elm Street films, but really like the first, third and New Nightmare. As far as I'm concerned, the first is one of the best slasher films of the 80s, and a terrific horror film from any era.

Does that mean Demdike is in the closet, along with Rik?

I've only seen New Nightmare once. Many, many moons ago. I thought it was really boring. I understand it took the series into new ground and many rate it highly but i've never fancied re-visiting it.

I enjoyed New Nightmare. Other than the original, it's the only Elm Street film I can stomach... the rest are just terrible.

I could never warm to the Friday the 13th films in general. I did enjoy part 2 and 3 I think I enjoyed part 2 over the original. The elm street films don't do much for me I did enjoy part 4 as random as that is. I wouldn't wish the remake of the original on my worst foe. Hellraiser I loved parts 1-3 and part 6. It's genuinely interesting how different members view different entries to different franchises.

Just going back to the Saw franchise.

Other than the Final Destination series it's the only decent gory horror franchise that's hit cinema this century.

The Wrong Turn films are still going strong but correct me if i'm wrong, they all went DTV after the initial installment.

I like all the Hellraiser films. Although i still haven't seen the Bradley-less installment.

I've now got my coat and am searching in the closet for my hat and scarf.

I'll join you, because I like all of them, including the Bradley-less one

It's doubtful.

The more ropy films i admit to liking i think i'll be moving in with the mice at the very back of the closet underneath those old shoes of Rik's.
