I only go to the mall for Texas roadhouse
I'm a big fan of John Carpenter and have seen his entire collection of movies several times, from Escape From New York to Big Trouble In Little China. I understand he directed the Suburban Screams series, I think. But he recently made a comment that bugs the hell out of me. He was asked in an interview what he thought about Exorcist: Believer getting bad reviews. He said he hadn't seen it yet but he felt the director missed the mark and didn't know what he was doing considering how simple the Exorcist idea is. Dude didn't even watch the movie and buried it based on what a sample group had said. If I had done that I would have never watched some of his movies. Escape From LA for example. I had heard it sucked but I still watched it based on how great Escape From New York was. LA had some really dumb ideas to it with the basketball and surfing shit but I still loved it.Originally Posted by 3viction

Jesus Christ.
Exorcist was considered a flop
You have no idea how many Horror movies I've watched that were given low RT scores or IMDB ratings that turned out to be enjoyable to me. Lol. There are so many different variables to consider why a movie would flop at the Box Office. With Exorcist: Believer it could be that the genre has been too exposed over the years and there is fatigue for exorcism-based movies. I try not to consider any of that, or reviews and public sentiment.

That's exactly what I'm saying. Idle Hands 15%? Leprechaun 27%? I mean, I could understand Leprechaun In Space getting 27%. Lmao. But the first one? FD 36%? Smfh.
With the exorcist flip wasn’t a rotten tomatoes thing they spent $400 million on production snd didn’t even break even I liked the original excorist
Watching Pumpkinhead now. I'm sure RT and IMDB panned this. One of my favorites Lance Henriksen films.
A classic, with a 65.
