Tentacoli (Tentacles, 1977)
"I always heard that octopuses don't attack humans, is that true?"
"It is. I guess he had a reason to do it."
"Is it true that the suckers on their tentacles are as deadly as the claws of a tiger?"
"Claws are nothing compared to those, Turner. Nothing."

Phantoms will be released on 4K Ultra HD + Blu-ray on July 16 via Scream Factory. The 1988 sci-fi horror film is based on Dean Koontz's 1983 novel of the same name.
Joe Chappelle (Halloween: The Curse of Michael Myers) directs from a script by Koontz. Peter O'Toole, Rose McGowan, Joanna Going, Liev Schreiber, Ben Affleck, Nicky Katt, Clifton Powell, and Michael DeLorenzo star.
Special features will be announced at a later date.
In the small village of Snowfield, Colorado, something evil has been awakened from its centuries-long slumber … something with the power to wipe out humanity as we know it. The unsuspecting Dr. Jennifer Pailey (Joanna Going) brings her sister Lisa (Rose McGowan) to Snowfield, only to find the town empty but for a few survivors. As the tension and terror mount, only the few who have been left behind — the Pailey sisters, a noted journalist (Peter O'Toole), the town sheriff (Ben Affleck), and his deputy (Liev Schreiber) — stand between the mysterious entity that lurks beneath Snowfield and the rest of mankind … if they can survive.
Pre-order Phantoms.

The Fifth Floor (1978)
First time making gifs. Sorry for the watermark I don't know how to make gifs other than using a website. I was hella limited with the scenes I could make gifs out of because I took clips from Youtube and the only things that aren't low quality are the trailer and a Benny compilation made by a fellow Robert Englund enjoyer. I love this movie so much please watch it <3

Nightmare at Noon (Death Street USA, 1988)
"Just doesn't make any sense. Folks I've known all my life feuding with each other for no reason. Hospital filled with people bleeding green blood. Telephones and the radios don't work. And the damn cars breaking down at the city limits!"
"Think something's behind it?"
