 From Dusk Till Dawn 3: The Hangman's Daughter How are these sequels? I hadn't watched them. The second one's nothing special, but you get a Bruce Campbell cameo and a rare leading role for Robert Patrick out of it. The third one's pretty damn good, and it has Michael Parks giving a way-greater-than-necessary performance as a drunken, vampire-slaying Ambrose Bierce. That man truly didn't have a single bad performance in him, no matter how low rent the project was.

You're absolutely right, stefancrosscoe. Cameron Diaz has never looked better than she did in this film - though I wonder if part of the reason we think that is because she was 'new' back then and this was the movie that 'introduced' her (it was a bit odd/funny reading the credits at the start of the film 'And introducing Cameron Diaz'). I really enjoy this and it's my second favourite Jim Carrey film (Carrey was actually really likeable as Stanley). Milo the dog was an absolute standout. What I especially appreciated was that this film had a slightly 'dark'/'sinister' edge to it. I kind of like movies that are comedies but have a bit of unexpected 'darkness' to them. I also really liked the movie's theme, since it's kind of eerie. I forgot about that part, the introducing one. I guess a few people in the business, knew they had a potential star in the making, but I kind of feel she never quite got out of the romantic "silly" blonde babe/bimbo roles, which seemed to "follow" her, for at least most the films I can remember having seen of her. However, I really enjoyed her in The Mask and the remake of the norwegian black summer comedy, Head Above Water, and of course in There's Something About Mary as well. The Mask is a really fun, enjoyable and very re-watchable 90s superhero comedy, but as you mentioned, one which surely has a certain "darker" theme in certain places, but I guess the comic it was based upon, went most likely much further, yet I am glad The Mask seems to be one of those Carrey films, which has gotten better recognition over time, and yeah, the soundtrack is a huge reason to why I love the whole atmosphere, it puts the chills down my spine, whenever I hear the first few opening lines, and which are used several time over.

The Hills Have Eyes Part II (1984)  I thought the much later sequel, were not all that terrible, but it sure felt at times, more like something made to fit into the Friday the 13th slasher era, rather than how the original played out, even though it of course, brings back a few familiar faces. Think I rated it with a 4,5/10 or a 5/10 during last years Horror October Challenge, but yeah, not a great sequel, but still one I kind of enjoy, because of the cheese factor, going very strong at times.

That man truly didn't have a single bad performance in him, no matter how low rent the project was. Think I have not re-watched the three films, since the fall of 2012, but I never really were all that crazy for the original, so those following were for me, not that far off, at least within the entertainment department. Rated the sequel probably a bit too generous, something around 5/10, but it moved rather fast, always nice to se Robert Patrick in the lead for once, and as the "good" guy, and quite a solid cast as well. The third one, I do not remember much of, rather than that I seem to do not own it any longer, so I guess that means it was not something I felt worthy of keeping hold on anymore, and will probably not bother re-watching. The first two however, I might give another go, and would probably fit in well, with in my opinion, the much more fun and enjoyable late 90s vampire/action western, in John Carpenter and his Vampires (1998).

Yep. I think 5/10 is what I rate it too. |

 Conrad Veidt and Olga Baclanova in The Man Who Laughs 1928 Not the horror movie I've been led to think it was thanks to pictures in my old Horror movie books, It's actually a rather sad love story that actually have a happy ending.
