I gave it another shot and while I enjoyed it more, it still didn't blow me away unfortunately like HALLOWEEN or THE FOG did. I think on paper this seemed like a great film but for whatever reason, it just didn't translate well onto the screen. I think the costumes and cars were pretty campy and I'm looking forward to the remake due out in 2009 with Gerard Butler.


You mean the remake that got CANCELLED?

Then again, you always thought Brett Ratner was the shit.

Besides, EFNY was a pretty low budget movie back in ole 1980 or 81 or whatever. Give it a fucking break.
