They don't make them like this anymore


It's a damn shame.

I agree - this movie rocks.

No they do not make films like this anymore at all and it is a shame.

I hope they never do again. I like a B-movie now and then, but this was just stupid and boring.

This was a very good B movie and I loved it! I had no problems with it at all. I would love to see more movies made like this to be honest with you.

This was back in a time where the entertainment and creativity came first in the horrr film before the trendy culture or politcal repetiveness in maninstream horror these days

You are correct about that! It seems like todays horror movies are watered down so that the teenagers can get in to watch the movies. I do not like that at all. I would have rather have seen Drag Me To Hell rated R and not PG-13 because I had four or five teenage girls talking, giggling, and doing whatever during the movie to where I had to get up and move to another part of the movie theater. I should not have to do that at all you know.

I'm watching this movie right now on ENCORE On-Demand . It's been so long since I have watched this whole Ghoulies Film Series ( it was a lot of fun to watch back in the day too lol ) . So it's great I was able to come across Ghoulies 2 & 3 On-Demand for free that I bookmarked a few days ago . This movie was as funny as the " Gremlins movies " were ( but of course these are a bit more gory than the Gremlin ones but all in good fun of course just the same lol ) . You are so right GeorgeLucasNeckFat it is a shame they just don't make them like this anymore . This kind of puppetry and stop frame/motion effects is almost never used anymore and sadly it's become a dying art in the industry too . It's definitely more realistic looking than what is being used in this day and age ( IMPO like CGI it should only be used in certain things , not overly used , and not for creature effects like this - it just doesn't fit ) . Thanks GeorgeLucasNeckFat for your subject post .
