I love horror movies especially the cheesey type of horror movies that are so stupid that they are great. I do prefer the ones that would always appear on SyFy, but any other type (that is not like the ones on SyFy and look a lot better) is fine too.

Terrorvision

Sssssss (note: not Ssssss, fuck that cheap knockoff)

Lawnmower Man (read the book first, then watch the movie, then go WTF did I just watch)

Nothing but Trouble (although this is more of a comedy. It is very clearly poking fun at Centralia and Pennsylvania)

Now that's a name I've not heard in a long time. It brings me back. I can smell the independent movie rental place, the one with the low ceilings and the wall of NES games. Simpler times.

Lawnmower Man (read the book first, then watch the movie, then go WTF did I just watch)

I'm not sure that one gets back around to being good. Nailed the WTF part though. As a corollary, you can do the same with The Mangler. I saw the movie first, thought it was unremarkable. Then I saw it in one of the King short story compilations and was curious to see what they changed. It's even shorter than Lawnmower Man, like two pages. And they made it into a whole damn movie.

Haha whoops, my bad. I always get that confused with Eraserhead.
