Don't remind me of that abomination - especially for such a classic vampire tale, and the indisputable best vampire film of 1987.

Don't trust him, he likes Dagon.

You know the saying 'don't judge a book by its cover'? The same applies to films!

I rented and saw The Dressmaker some time ago and loved it. I believe someone, possibly the director, made the analogy of the film being like Unforgiven, only with a sewing machine instead of a shotgun, which is a very apt description.

I do too!

It's nowhere near as good as The Call of Cthulhu though.

They've only got themselves to blame with a cover like that! Talk about poor marketing...

I saw someone with a 'The Lost Boys' tattoo yesterday. Sadly there were too many people around for me to rip his arm off and beat him to death with it.

When i saw it on the shelf i just figured it was this sort of drivel.
Heck the cover is virtually identical to the first one.


So i bought it for the wife, because she generally likes that sort of drivel.
