OhmyGosh! Amazing Stories! I haven't heard of that in so long! I remember I loved the show. I wonder if I could find it on DVD--those would be fun to watch!

HaHA! You know 'Night of the Comet!' Do you remember that made for tv movie called 'Dark Night of the Scarecrow?' I thought it was soo scary when I was little, and I haven't seen it since. I think they will be releasing it on DVD soon. There are so many superfun 80s movies!

I remember that!!! LOL, we must be close in age? I am in my very early 30's! hehe

eta: No you have me wanting to see an episode of 'Tales from the Darkside'

MwahHaHAA! Me too!
We are close in age--I'm in my early thirties too!
I wonder if the Scarecrow movie would still be scary...hmmm

Yay, for totally 80's scary made for tv, movies!!!!

Oh gosh, I don't know, but maybe! LOL Coati, did you ever see Friday the 13th (not the movie) but tv show where they had an antique shop and it was kind of scary and they would solve weird mysteries?

Yay, for totally 80's sort of bad (but really good back in the day, movies)!!!!

Oh gosh, I doubt it would be scary! LOL Coati, did you ever see Friday the 13th (not the movie) but tv show where they had an antique shop and it was kind of scary and they would solve weird mysteries?

You are making me laugh so hard with all these shows!! haHAA!!! Yes I remember that show! You have the best memory ever! That was a total low rent show! haHA! But of course, I watched it!!

That is so funny--I forgot the antique shop! Hive Five--Skippy!

eta: yah, it was kind of scary, but never got really scary, and there was some kind of underlying romance between the two main characters. Was that Rae Dawn Chong? The actress?? (I am all giggles thinking about that show!)

Does anyone remember the old television show The Mother''s Inlaw?? That show cracked me up. It was with Eve Arden and I forget who the other actress was. The two were always sticking their noses in their married children''s lives. It was really funny.

who remembers the episodes about the woman that was beautiful and the rest of the world had pig snouts and she wanted to kill herself because she was so "ugly"...or the dracula doll show...had nightmares as a kid over that one.

 

[Linda W]

Are there any Laurel and Hardy Fans??? I love these two. I stayed up until 3:00a.m. this morning watching a marathon of their movies on TCM channel.

A few of these movies, I never saw before, I was laughing so hard, I was afraid I would wake DH up.

I think SevensOne is a fan, being they are her Avatar picture.

oooo I don't remember that one! They WERE creepy! Really scary. I think I watched them in junior high--and I scare easily! Do you remember the one about the Black Widow woman? The woman turned into a spider at night? I vaguely remember it, but it was soooo scary to me!

eta: back then, I would of love to have hair like that too! That make-out emotie is so funny too!

hehe my sister and I loved them too--I have one older sister. When I watched these shows, I always hid under a big blanket and peeked out of the open weave. hehee

The 80s are back in such a major way. I love the pop culture--especially these shows, movies, music, and the video games, but I CANNOT deal with the fashion--and I see it everywhere!

People are pegging their pants again!!

Poltergeist, chicken scene scared me and the clown for sure! I did a google search and found them; the Tales from the Darkside, widow episode (that is the spider one right)? I am watching one right now on a bad teddy bear!LOL

Did you ever see the 80's Twighlight Zone the Movie, I thought that was scary?? Eeek!! Coati, I am bummed out because the X-files is no longer playing in my city; I will have to see it when it comes to dvd!

Thanks Coati for the memories!

haHa Skippy! I was a pretty good pegger MEself.

*ok Tales From the Darkside update*
I just watched 3 episodes on youtube. SO FUNNY! Man, the episodes sure have a lot of filler moments. Do you notice that those old shows move so sloowly? Shows today are so efficiently edited. But I love the charm of the old slooow show! I watched the Levitation one, the Alcoholic Dad episode, and the Monster in the Closet. I'm having a lovely lazy Sunday!

I wear glasses, and I'll never go big! NEVER!

Happy Sunday Skippy!

eta: Oh, the Twilight Zone Movie! Yes, I thought it was scary too! (bet it would be funny now!) The monster on the plane with John Lithgow! oooh I want to rent that now!

They are slow, watch the one called I can't Help Say Goodbye, that one is creepy!

I also think they use to use super weird music for drama too. I thought the monster on the plane was freaky, in Twilight Zone the Movie. hehe I saw it recently and was still scared! LOL The one that creeped me out as a kid, was the boy that had his family in control of his every desire, that freaked me out! haha

Aren't they fun?!?! It is because of you I am watching them. teehee Thank you! If we had our own marathon, I could see us laughing our heads off! LOL

Pegged pants are sure different then the pegged pants when I was in high school. The boys used to peg them so tight if they would bend over, I swear they would split their pants in half.
