2. Me too, although seeing it again many years later...
I was amazed at how cheesy the effects are/were. Particularly the bug/face peeling scene which at the time was horrifying but now when you look at it, they practically show them putting a dummy head there and peeling off the rubber coating. It's laughable.

Still a super-creepy movie aside from that scene.

8. I was getting ready to have surgery
Had my hair all done up in that blue cap and all--very attractive,lol--and the anesthesiologist came over to me and said "Now I remember who you look like".
He thought I looked like the girl on that movie--is her name Sean Young or something like that?
I had to go find a copy of the movie after he said that to see if it was a compliment or a slam,lol.

9. Well, in MY opinion
Sean Young is right.

And yes, compliment. Major compliment. An "if he was cute, you should go back to the hospital because that anesthesiologist probably wanted to ask you out on a date" level complement.

No idea what her politics are, but physically she is/was a cutie.

I don't date docs.
Been there done that got the T-shirt.
As a nurse, I find it's not a stellar idea.:)

On edit I forgot to mention what a bitch I am as well.:evilgrin:

4. I got that on DVD a bit ago! Great flick!
I liked the scene where the Parapsychologist lady is drinking coffee or tea after seeing the room with all the crap flying around, and her hands are shaking.

:)

5. I LOVE P-geist!
Man, that movie was one of the last TRUE horror flicks... These modern day "scare" films are nothing but psychological horror. Give me P-geist over Grudge any day of the week.
