I thought it was aces. I've always had a thing for the drifter formula when it was done right (i.e. the Hulk TV series), the desert setting worked really well, and the whole freakshow with the vampire ringmaster deal was fun. If you look at this series, there's really not that many good ones, but I honestly think VI ranks up there with I as far as quality. It might be low-budget, but it's well-made. What do you guys think?

Absolute fucking bollock shit (I'm not keen).

And in the POV shot when the sheriff police guy is getting chased by the vampire, you can see the HUGE shadow of the camera and boom operators. THAT was the best bit.

It has Bruce Payne thus it never really had any chance of being anything but DTV dirt.

Which describes every HOWLING flick since the second.

I think it was good, better than any of the other howling sequels.

I think AIDS is better than the Ebola virus.

I dunno, Ebola kills you quick wheras AIDS makes you suffer for years and years. Plus, with so little time between infection and death it's far easier to contain. Yup, I think I prefer Ebola.

Okay then.

I don't remember that at all... I'll have to look for it.

II... the goddamn werewolf orgy. Though the original had one that's arguable (they turn mid-intercourse)...

I think it was good, better than any of the other howling sequels.

Right. That's my whole point.

you call the hulk series good? LOL.

Yes, I do. LOL. It's fun 70's drifter formula, with the good episodes outweighing the bad. LOL. The DVD boxed set only has the good episodes, I'd check that out to see what I mean. LOL.

(Just kidding around)


Did you guys ever see VII? "New Moon Rising"? It was so bad it killed the unkillable franchise... (if the werewolf orgy/titanium bullets/rewritten vampire script one didn't, what could?!)
