Poison Ivy II (1996)
The worst movie I have been unfortunate enough to see
This movie was so bad, I was actually booing my television set. The premise is ridiculous, the acting lame and I thought that the bogus "child in jeopardy" scene at the end was ludicrous, manipulative garbage. I only hope the original wasn't this bad.
Alien (1979)
The best film of all time...
When this film first came out, I was immediately fascinated; not only by the strong visuals but also the perfect ensemble acting. John Hurt's death scene alone is a classic. I watch this film at least once a year and it never seems dated and is never boring. This is probably the film which made me watch movies on another level; not only as mere entertainment, but as something more; something to appreciate and savor like a great meal or fine wine. Friends constantly tell me "yeah, but 'Aliens' was better" (much like the people who post here) and I am always telling them why it is a very good film, but totally different from the classic original. Not since "King Kong" has a movie monster so indelibly and originally burned itself into our collective psyche - watch "Alien" again (with the lights out).
