"The Hitcher," with Rutguer Hauer (sorry, can't spell it!).  *VERY* suspenseful.  My fav.

"When a Stranger Calls" is the right title, all right.  I saw it as a kid in a theatre
and the opening is quite startling.

The movies that really freaked me out for various reasons, but weren't *necessarily* that
good according to most horror-film fans were (in no particular order):

1. Nightbreed (psychological implications were very heavy, very frightening)
2. Prince of Darkness (had me touching mirrors for days--very freaky)
3. Psycho II (I think, not the slasher one and not the last one on HBO)
4. Poltergeist
5. Misery
6. Halloween

Hope this helps!

I have seen the animated Lord of the Rings movie several times.  I do believe
it was intended for kids as was the animated movie of The Hobbit.  Taking that
in mind, it is and excellent interpretation.  (And the animation is astounding!
I woundered (still do) if portions (the bar scene with storytelling) were

     I've read somewhere that yes, Coppola DID indeed film his GODFATHER
     movies in the same ratio as the classic gangster movies.  When he
     proposed doing so, the Paramount studio tried to discourage it,
     saying that "no one" watches movies in that ratio anymore.  But
     he persisted, and he made his movies in the same ratio as the
     Golden Age gangster movies.

     However, since most movie screens won't fit that aspect ratio
     anymore (they're made for wide-screen movies), it's possible that
     many theatres have shown the GODATHER movies at least slightly
     matted on the top and bottom.

     This may be one case where the video version is actually more
     accurate than the movie theatre.

I did a search of Cinemania and came up with these titles
(I've added a little zinger from L. Maltin for each):

Crossing to Freedom (1990) -- starring Peter O'Toole, "an
uninspired remake of the 1942 Monty Woolley movie The Pied
Piper."

Fools of Fortune (UK - 1990) -- starring Ian Glenn, Mary Elizabeth
Mastrantonio, Julie Christy, "muddled, haphazardly organized
family chronicle." Kitchen played Mr. Quinton, according to
the Motion Picture Movie Guide. "Kitchen is the perfect
gallant country squire, somewhat addled, but fiercely proud
of all he owns." (This sounds like an interesting movie to
look up, L. Matlin notwithstanding.)

Out of Africa (1985) -- starring Meryl Streep, Robert
Redford, Klaus Maria Brandauer, "exquisite, intelligent
romantic drama based on the life of Karen Blixen."

The Russia House (1990) -- starring Sean Connery, Michelle
Pfeiffer, "alternately tedious and intriguing." Kitchen
plays Clive.

I'm sorry to bring this up again, but I've got to get this Die Hard 
thing sorted out once and for all regarding the music used in the
closing scenes where one of the bad guys jumps up and gets shot.

Here's what I know to be true:

1) The music used is from the track 'Resolution and Hyperspace' from
   James Horner's score of Aliens (as has been stated before)

2) Only the last quiet section of this score appeared in Aliens.

Now, can anyone confirm the following:

1) I have been told that the music in DH originally comes from Beethoven's
   9th symphony. Is this true?

2) As for the last section of the 'RandH' track I think this was scored 
   originally by some relatively modern composer (Kachiturian?)(sp?)
   and appeared in something like 2001: A Space Odyssey (??)

Could I be so bold as to suggest that this DH music thing become an
FAQ? I've seen it come up a couple of times in the last few months.
More often than the Heathers FAQ, anyway. :-)

	I'd like to track down a soundtrack with only a few tenuous clues.
	A while back I saw this movie, otherwise rather unexceptional, about 
a woman reporter who goes to a small town to write about the life of an old
woman who'd committed suicide.  Through it all one of the men of the town,
played by the male lead of the _Coach_ TV series, continually hits on her
(in between insipid and funny arguments with his mother).  Eventually, she
does go home with him, and when her ex-husband finds out about this he says,
"but he's so _dumb_!  He's *so* *dumb*!"
	Through all this is the theme music: a sad flow of rolling synth, I
believe, and it was the music that kept me glued to the set all through the
movie.  (It wasn't such a bad movie, about average I guess, and done
sensitively.)
	I happened to catch the name of the piece featured: _Tabula Rasa_,
which was written by Avro Part.
	Okay, what's the name of this movie, so I can get the soundtrack?  Is
Harry McCormick the name of the lead in _Coach_?  (If so, I can look up the 
movies he's been in.)

I have to agree!  Why is it so hard for people in the US to pronounce
foreign names how they are supposed to be pronounced?

For all of those who like Gerard Depardieu and have only seen him
in "Green Card", here are some other movies he has been in which are
my favorites and I would highly recommend:

Camille Claudel
The Return of Martin Guerre
Cyrano de Bergerac
Jean de Florette


I have seen a couple of other films with Depardieu but I can't recall

I really liked "Paperhouse". My memory claims that it's British, but it's been
known to lie to me before. It's got to do with the boundary between dreams
and reality. I don't really want to say any more about it. It gave me the

A movie that is more disturbing than frightening is "The Vanishing". That one

EXORCIST II ???????????  I thought this was one of the worst sequels in the 
history of films. Did you perhaps mean Exorcist III? I thought this was the
*real* sequel (written by Blatty). Quite enjoyable, IMHO.
