Tall man movies?
u mean Phantasm?
i saw 1 and it was very boring but it has the best special effect ever for such an old movie ( flyign silver ball pumping blood form some guy's head )

Emo, you want to see great special effects for an old movie. See the original Invisible Man from the 30's. Absoluetly amazing effects for that time period!
Anyway...
An American Werewolf in London: This one's a classic although I do think it's a bit overrated. If you're looking for a really scary flick, this isn't it. This works like a comedy and it's pretty funny. The makeup effects are phenomenal, and the transformation scenes are unforgettable! It's worth seeing. B
Phantasm aka "The Tall Man Movie" http://www.joblo.com/ubb/wink.gif: Another classic. Very great film! Not very scary, but some decent gore, and interesting villain. The acting is alright, and the death by ball scene is amazing! Rent it! A-
Candyman: Another classic. This one is very scary, gory, and very good! It moves at a slow eerie pace, and ends with a BANG! Go rent it now! A
I haven't seen The Ice Cream Man and don't plan on it anytime soon. I've heard terrible things about it!

American Werewolf in London is awesome, it's definetely worth a look. Great Gore!!!!!!
Candyman is an amazing scare flick. Very creepy and has a wonderful score. Some nice gore bits but they aren't played for fun.

I've only seen Phantasm IV and I didn't get it at all. American Werwolf is one of the best horrormovies ever, rent it! Candyman is great as well, it has Tony Todd in great form and it's way better than it's crappy sequels.

The Phantasm flicks-You'll either love them or hate them. You might as well rent them.

Rent American Werewolf In London just for the great fact that it is a good story and a good movie and lots of good gore and makeup and no I mean NO CGI!!!! This is the grand truth of movies before computers. Before CGI you had creative people using everything they could get their hands on to deliver a great effect! CGI is getting way out of control and It is a shame! Give me any movie without CGI any day! Phantasm is a great movie also but young people today think it is stupid well Scream is pretty damn stupid if you ask me kiddies!!! Candyman is pretty cool, good story. The ice cream man is ok but pretty dorky I thought!

an american werewolf in London- Good fun. I t kind of over rated, but i still enjoy it. Personally, though, I liked the Howling a lot more. reccomended nonetheless.
Phantasm- First one is great. The sequel is more fun, though, the first one is the better movie. The third one was OK. I didn't care to see the fourth one, thaknks to reveiws freom others who said that it sucked.
Candyman- awesome, scary moive. Fuck the sequles.
american- 3/4
Phantasm- 4/4
II- 4/4
III- 2 1/2 /4
Candyman- 4/4
2- 1 1/2 /4
3- 1/2 /4

All of them? What?! Not one person said anything good about ICM, and there's a reason! Do not rent this film!
