8. Hey...
The bottom line to any of my posts is that Dean is a centrist who governs as a compromiser. Dean and his record don't disagree. So, if you can see compromising centrism as a virtue as many do, consider it a plus for Dean.

If Dean is the nominee, he and his campaign might use my posts verbatim to sell him to the centrists.

How's that?

6. Wrong Turn
I haven't seen 28 Days Later...but as someone with a close circle of friends that are huge horror fans, Wrong Turn is probably your best bet. Even though I'm not as horror-obsessed as my friends are, I really enjoyed it, and from hearing them rave about it, it is definitely a new classic of the genre. (Unless I'm just naive and their love for Wrong Turn has more to do with Eliza Dushku than the actual quality of the movie...you can be the judge there, I guess.) :) I know it didn't get great reviews from the critics, but most of them aren't true horror fans anyway.

12. Critics: 28 Days Later - 88% positive, Wrong Turn - 38%
Courtesy of Rotten Tomatoes.

Sorry, but I think "true horror fans" set the bar a tad lower than the rest of us.

7. House of 1000 Corpses
not one of your choices, but a great flick nonetheless. Destined to become a cult classic.

9. Wrong Turn was horrible, horrible, horrible
And this coming from a guy who is *this* close to stalking Eliza Dushku. :silly:

11. No argument from me
They were thoughtful enough to dress her in a "wife beater" and low rise jeans. Excellent choice.

18. Not to me...I liked the other girl....
Eliza had no butt. I like to see full butts on women (and I say that as a woman).

19. Well, I haven't seen 28 days yet
But I'll give my thumbs up for "Wrong Turn".

MAN! That was EVERYTHING I wanted "House of a 1000 Corpses" to be!

Take an old formula and actually do something new with it. Who woulda thunk?

Tree tops? Under the floor watching? Man, that was wicked!
