For Horror films unlikely to get a thread of their own.

Parents ..
Parents was an incredibly obscure and difficult film to find, even back in 1989 .. starring Randy Quaid (enough said) ... Michael is a disturbed young boy in 1950's America, disturbed for a good reason ..
Kudos to you for seeing Parents in the cinemaI actually saw Parents in the cinema! Great film, funny weird and puts you off steak (the shots of food are really disgusting). Now we know this is what Randy Quaid is really like, alas. Excellent music, too.
Good anthology and another in my VHS ex rental collection ... without checking, I think Savini did the F/X for that episode and that's a young Drew Barrymore .... I could be getting mixed up with Creep Show on the Tom Savini thing though.Cats Eye is a memorable one, especially that little troll creature that steals your breath of energy.

Slightly straying off topic but I remember an urban legend about cats lying on children's chests when they're asleep to steal their breath ..it was a very thought provoking watch.

I remember seeing that just after Christmas 1989, at the Hyde Park Picture House, I was vegetarian then but had stayed at a friends for Christmas and had caved in and was feeling guilty after eating dead animals, and then I watched this movie and felt quite ill... also I'm pretty sure cannilbalism was sort of an allegory for noncing. which just makes it even more![]()
