Importance of Seeing a Film in Theatres? almost 3 years ago

i think it depends on the theaters, like in L.A somewhere like the arclight/AMC those are nice theaters you can pick the seats you want, the theaters are in excellent conditions but Vancouver, a place like tinseltown where there a little run down, the’re not as enjoyable for me.

but overall it beats watching movies on a little ass t.v with poor sound quality

Horror on criterion almost 3 years ago

Parents with randy quiad although i think its more of a black comedy, regardless it deserves to be on the list, as well as Re-animator, Cementary man, Martin by George Romero
