Director: John Landis
Cast: Eddie Murphy, Judge Reinhold, Hector Elizondo, Theresa Randle, Bronson Pinchot, Timothy Carhart, John Saxon, Alan Young, Stephen McHattie, Jon Tenney, Joey Travolta, Eugene Collier, Fred Asparagus, Rick Avery, Gilbert R. Hill

The Big Fisherman 1959  N/R, 180 min.
Genre: Drama
Director: Frank Borzage
Cast: Howard Keel, Susan Kohner, John Saxon, Martha Hyer, Herbert Lom, Ray Stricklyn, Marian Seldes, Alexander Scourby, Beulah Bondi, Jay Barney
Based on a novel by Lloyd C. Douglas, this Disney production is overly long and not well executed. It is the story of Simon Peter (a miscast Howard Keel), the "fisher of men," who started as a fisherman and became a leader in the Christian movement. Good scenery (San Fernando Valley) with three Academy Award nominations. 1 User Review

It's the day before Christmas when the obscene phone calls start at the sorority house, and the killing of sorority sisters begins. It appears that the killer is in the attic. A pretty good slasher film that set a standard for those to follow. Margot Kidder is great as the foul-mouthed sister.

Lots of screaming is about all one can say concerning this "Nightmare" movie in which actors from previous "Freddy Krueger" films return for more slashing. Of special note, Robert Englund appears as himself, opposing his old character, Freddy. And you thought the series ended with #6.

Nancy (Heather Langenkamp) is also having dreams about Freddie, and when her friends are meeting their demise, Nancy knows that she must stay awake and draw the dream killer out of the dreams and into the present-day world.
