I liked Pitch Black a lot The 2nd movie, I was not impressed Sometimes we live no particular way but our own - Grateful Dead "Eyes of the World" |

They are two very different films. I enjoyed both for different reasons, but liked "Pitch Black" more than the sequel, even though the end of "Pitch Black" was kinda lame. |

I've only seen PB a couple times, the lamest of the three. Chronicles was a big budget movie with a real story and interesting characters. Riddick is such a badass, he really doesn't care about anybody but himself. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

I never watch stuff like that, I never even saw any of the big horror movies in the past. Like chainsaw movies, Friday the 13th sequels, Freddy Krueger, Halloween movies. I never saw any of them, they just all seem the same to me. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

petroglyph Member since: Aug 3, 2014 Threads: 25 Posts: 6227 | I haven't either. The only one I've watched and liked was Jeepers Creepers, and part 2. There is a part 3 that I haven't watched yet. The sequel is unique in that, it was as good as the original. The last official act of any government is to loot the treasury. GW |

Jeepers Creeper 2 is really one of the few in that genre that I ever liked. Can't even pinpoint why exactly. There's so many I don't care for. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

The plot line for those type of movies is always the same. Put some young people into a terrifying harrowing situation and keep them there non-stop for 90 minutes. Keep everybody in the audience in a state of tension for 90 minutes. You've seen one of these movies, you've seen the all. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |
