Honorable Mentions
@deSign_r's review of The Shining stuck with me: "An enigma from which there is no escape" certainly reminds me of my feelings the one (and only) time I watched it. Also, deSign_r took the trouble to mock up a pretty great Stacker version of the movie poster!
@guerratotal's review of Cannibal Holocaust deserves mention purely because of the choice of movie.
@GreaterthanFiction's review of Scream was artful and intriguing (especially for someone who hasn't watched Scream yet...)
10k sat zap winner
Congratulations to @0xbitcoiner for reviewing Troll 2
I've been hunting for this movie for 3 days, couldn’t remember the name. This was the first and last horror movie (this kind of horror) I ever watched in my life.
This was a review that really made me want to watch the movie. There are so many elements to it that, coupled with the poster art, piqued my interest. Memorable, yet forgettable. Something that makes you never want to watch it again...
I got as far as the end of the trailer before I realized that I did not want to watch it at all.
Well done, @0xbitcoiner!
