    Evander Holyfield said in an interview that the only fighter he doesn’t like personally is Lennox Lewis.....and this was after Mike Tyson bit his ear off

    Mike seems to burn an ounce of weed in under a week these days.

    Great analogy!! The Exorcist and TCM are in that category for me. And I've seen Carpenter's Halloween so many times since 1987 that it's a cure for insomnia.

    Cheers bud!!

    Tysons camp had no business talking about high pitched voices

    Maybe I'm wrong but I thought I read somewhere that brian nielsen said something in his native language that tyson took for a slur and wanted to beat his ass

    I'm not sure if there was bad blood or what but he kept hitting lou savarese after the fight

    Mike didn’t like Lennox like a puppy doesn’t like the mailman.

    Bit him on the leg. Not a good boy.

    LL punished him for it.

    I’ll go with Jaws as the best horror movie ever. Alien is up there. And The Thing if you want more classic horror.

    Those are all total Classics. I have to throw Night of the Living Dead in there.

    Great stuff guys. Alien is one of the greatest and the sequel, when sequels rarely work near as well, was perfectly done IMO. Even Jaws II was a riot for me but i may be biased as it was the first Jaws i got to see and that was at the cinema as a child. Other solid classic types are The Exorcist, Evil Dead, The Texas chainsaw Massacre, The Shining, Carrie, An American Werewolf in London, Poltergeist, Halloween and The Omen but The Thing, well what a movie that is. The Shining would be not too far behind The Thing for me actually. Amazing movies.

    I actually liked Dawn of the Dead the best out of those (and what a great line of films) but again it is probably my age talking.

    Forward of that Nightmare on Elm Street, 28 Days/Weeks Later, Drag Me to Hell, The Descent, Scream, i enjoyed all of those. There's just so many.

    Have you checked out the French horror flicks of the 2000's? The French were blowing everybody out of the water! Haute Tension was cool but these bad boys were intense: Inside (La Interieur 2007) and Martyrs (2008). Check those out for modern classics. I guess they're not too modern anymore but still.

    Amityville, The Howling, Black Christmas, The Burning, and some people don't like this one but The Blair Witch Project still freaks me out.
