Psycho II is quite a good movie too. I'm not usually into sequals, but the second movie has a couple of the same actors including Anthony Perkins (Norman Bates). He gets out of the institution years later, returns to live in the old house, and his psychological problems soon creep up and have him murdering again.
It's not a patch on the original, but it's a fair attempt at continuing the story and it has it's moments.

I might have to check that one out too. At this rate I might as well watch every horror film ever created.

That scene was actually deleted from the original movie. We only got that when it was released on dvd.
I saw the DVD version.
Oh no, you saw the version that had some really stupid CG shit added in.
The original is the true movie that caused all the comotion.
what they did to the movie for a cheap shot at money was the likes of Warner's issuing a special version of SOTT where they add autotune guest raps by Niki Minaj on Ballad of Dorothy Parker and Strange Relationship.

What CG stuff was in it? I'm curious to know the difference. I don't really know if it was the DVD version, I assumed it was because it had the spiderwalk scene in it.

If it started with a shot of the house in Wash DC at night with windows lit up, it's the CG version. If it had random faces appearing in dark spots of the house that people don't notice, it's the CG version. Those faces appearing are the offensive new parts I hate. They are obvious special effects added that make no sense if you've seen the original one for 20+ years prior. They look cheap too.
The spider walk scene is shocking, but it feels awkard and schlocky in a way that undermines the "Best Picture" quality of the real version of the movie released in 1973 with that zoom into the mouth. Also it undermines the shock of the daytime vagina mutilation with the cross.

So I did see the DVD version.
I never knew they changed anything. I just thought they added scenes on the DVD version. Great now I have a horror film to see too

You mean the new version. Both versions are on DVD, and some sets invclude both discs. I have the blu-ray wihich has both versions.

Good to know, haven't seen this film in years and only seen it in the original format.
Never seen the spiderwalk scene, by the sounds of it, I don't think I want to. I like the flow of the original movie. It seemed "possible" and that reason made it horrifying to me.
Night Of The Living Dead, Dawn Of The Dead, and Zombi 2 are all must sees
LOVED Night of the Living Dead... it was funny and thrilling at the same time.
Didn't see the last two.
Dawn Of The Dead is Night Of The Living Dead's sequel and is quite possibly one of the best sequels made. Basically there's a zombie outbreak and a couple of people use a mall as refuge. Zombi 2 is a completely unrelated movie but was named after Night Of The Living Dead (it was called Zombi in some countries). Basically it's a gory zombie movie on an island with some zombie fanatic wet dreams thrown in.
So is just about every movie I've watched in the past two days.
I'm starting Poltergeist now.
The "Poltergeist curse" is a rumor of a supposed curse attached to the Poltergeist trilogy and its crew, derived from the fact that four cast members died in the six years between the releases of the first and third films.[1][9] The rumor is often fueled by the fact that real cadavers were used as props in various scenes of Poltergeist and Poltergeist II.[10] The rumor and the surrounding deaths were explored in a 2002 episode of E! True Hollywood Story entitled "Curse of Poltergeist."
Dominique Dunne, who played the eldest daughter Dana in the first movie, died on November 4, 1982 at age 22 after being strangled by her abusive former boyfriend John Thomas Sweeney.[11] He was convicted of voluntary manslaughter and sentenced to six years in prison, but was paroled after serving three and a half years.[9]
Julian Beck, 60-year-old actor who played Henry Kane in Poltergeist II: The Other Side, died on September 14, 1985 of stomach cancer diagnosed before he had accepted the role.[12]
Heather O'Rourke, who played Carol Anne in all three Poltergeist movies, died on February 1, 1988 at the age of 12 after what doctors initially described as an acute form of influenza but later changed to septic shock after bacterial toxins invaded her bloodstream.[14][15] At the time, she had suffered acutebowel obstruction, initially diagnosed as Crohn's disease, which may have been the cause of death.
