Only the awesomest alien movie that ever was, starring (Rowdy) Roddy Piper, as the main character, in an actual acting role.<\/p>\n<p><i>2) If we&#8217;ve got any surprises for each other, I don&#8217;t think either one of us is in much shape to do anything about it. <\/i><br \/>\n<b>The Thing.<\/b> This is the very last line; neither of the (only) two survivors knows for sure whether he or the other survivor is one of them.<\/p>\n<p><i>3) It was nothing like that, penis breath!<\/i><br \/>\n<b>E.T.<\/b> magpiefirefly got this one.<\/p>\n<p><i>4) The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over but it can&#8217;t. Not without your help. But you&#8217;re not helping.<\/i><br \/>\n<b>Blade Runner<\/b> &#8211; parsemand got it! And says there is a newly re-edited version that kicks even more ass than the original.<\/p>\n<p><i>5) Santy Claus only brings presents to them that&#8217;s been good all year. All the other ones, all the naughty ones, he punishes! What about you, boy? You been good all year? <\/i><br \/>\nAdmittedly this is a tough one, for everyone who doesn&#8217;t scavenge the obscure bad-horror-movie bins at their local backwater VHS rental place (remember those? (VHS tapes *or* places that rented them?)). <b>Silent Night, DEADLY Night!<\/b> If you guessed this movie is about a deranged Santa Claus that goes around killing people, you&#8217;d be right.<\/p>\n<p><i>6) What the hell are you? &#8230;The world&#8217;s most pissed-off snow cone! <\/i><br \/>\n<b>Jack Frost<\/b> (probably from the same shelf\/bin as previous). There are actually two movies by this name; one is about a mutant killer snowman, and one is a mushy family kids movie. The first time, we picked up the wrong one by mistake and spent a good 45 minutes or so going, &#8220;Isn&#8217;t he going to start killing people yet? Why isn&#8217;t he killing anyone?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>7) EXCUSE ME,Jack! You heard the man! My oxygen&#8217;s running out! Look, if you don&#8217;t help me, you&#8217;re going to end up with this microscopic pod floating around your insides with this teeny tiny human skeleton at the helm.<\/i><br \/>\n<b>Inner Space<\/b>. I remember seeing this movie when I was young and liking it a lot, but I don&#8217;t really remember most of it.<\/p>\n<p><i>8) Everything. OK! I&#8217;ll talk! In third grade, I cheated on my history exam. In fourth grade, I stole my uncle Max&#8217;s toupee and I glued it on my face when I was Moses in my Hebrew School play. In fifth grade, I knocked my sister Edie down the stairs and I blamed it on the dog&#8230; When my mom sent me to the summer camp for fat kids and then they served lunch I got nuts and I pigged out and they kicked me out&#8230; But the worst thing I ever done &#8211; I mixed a pot of fake puke at home and then I went to this movie theater, hid the puke in my jacket, climbed up to the balcony and then, t-t-then, I made a noise like this: hua-hua-hua-huaaaaaaa &#8211; and then I dumped it over the side, all over the people in the audience. And then, this was horrible, all the people started getting sick and throwing up all over each other. I never felt so bad in my entire life.<\/i><br \/>\n<b>The Goonies<\/b>! I can&#8217;t believe nobody got this one! Everybody who grew up in the 80s should know this one :P<\/p>\n<p><i>9) Zac Hobson, July 5th. One: there has been a malfunction in Project Flashlight with devastating results. Two: it seems I am the only person left on Earth. <\/i><br \/>\n<b>The Quiet Earth<\/b>. You know, secret government projects involving particle physics always turn out well.<\/p>\n<p><i>10) My &#8216;them&#8217;. Every paranoid schizophrenic has one; a &#8216;them&#8217;, a &#8216;they&#8217;, an &#8216;it&#8217;. And you want to hear about my &#8216;them&#8217;, don&#8217;t you? <\/i><br \/>\n<b>In the Mouth of Madness<\/b>. Shawn on the <a href=\"https:\/\/tim.cexx.org\/?p=435#comments\">cexxy side<\/a> knew this one.<\/p>\n<p><i>11) Three years ago our Johnny died. We thought there was no hope, but then we discovered the United Appeal for the Dead. They showed us that despite Johnny&#8217;s handicap, he could still be a useful member of our family and the community. Our United Appeal for the Dead caseworker showed us that the absence of life from Johnny&#8217;s body didn&#8217;t have to mean his absence from our daily lives.<\/i><br \/>\n<b>The Kentucky Fried Movie<\/b>. Great shit from the 70s.<\/p>\n<p><i>12)  Don&#8217;t mind her. She&#8217;s still upset because somebody dropped a house on her sister.<\/i><br \/>\n<b>Beetlejuice<\/b>, beetlejuice beetlejuice! magpiefirefly got this one too. I haven&#8217;t seen that in ages.<\/p>\n<p><i>13) Ok you Primitive Screwheads, listen up! You see this? This&#8230; is my boomstick! The 12-gauge double-barreled Remington. S-Mart&#8217;s top of the line. You can find this in the sporting goods department. That&#8217;s right, this sweet baby was made in Grand Rapids, Michigan. Retails for about $109.95. It&#8217;s got a walnut stock, cobalt blue steel, and a hair trigger. That&#8217;s right. Shop smart. Shop S-Mart. You got that? <\/i><br \/>\n<b>Army of Darkness<\/b>. jovianconsensus got it. As for the rest of you, I&#8217;m disappointed in y&#8217;all.<\/p>\n<p><i>14) I would like&#8230; cheese&#8230; go&#8230; to&#8230; hell&#8230; <\/i><br \/>\n<b>Explorers<\/b>. The line is actually spoken by a rat who can control a speech synthesizer. Fortunately this is its only line&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><i>15)  Gentlemen, you can&#8217;t fight in here! This is the War Room. <\/i><br \/>\n<b>Dr. Strangelove<\/b>. jovianconsensus got this one too. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eeks, only now did I realize that almost half of these are John Carpenter flicks. 1) I have come here to chew bubblegum and kick ass&#8230; and I&#8217;m all out of bubblegum.
