Wes Craven must have enjoyed mountains of Columbian snow while shooting a movie about a murderer who digitizes himself after an MTV god came out of his TV. Shocker is absolute madness.

I didn’t exist when this came out but I did a similar thing. I convinced my mom the nick cage movie wickerman was like the best movie of the year and she took me to see it and was SO mad. I was thrilled however. Getting to see a terrible movie IN THEATERS. She fell for the bait again when I got her to take me to see 30 days of night which wasn’t as bad but me and some 30 year old dude in the back were bouncin jokes off each other the whole time. Like when dude made himself a vampire we both did the whole “dayyyyywalkerrr” thing from blade. Beautiful night but after that I wasn’t allowed to even go to the movies again until I was like 17.

People Under The Stairs is definitely a weird movie. To this day I don't know if they intended to make a comedy or a serious horror film. Everett McGill in his gimp outfit, shooting randomly into the walls had me in stitches.

Wes himself says in the commentary he was going through personal issues and making this movie as batsh1t as possible helped him through it. He cameos as a neighbour in the last scene. They should have zapped into a Nightmare on Elm Street scene at the end, would have been meta 🤩

I was a big horror movie fan as a kid. Strangely, this is one of only two movies which gave me nightmares. I had dreams about Horace Pinker coming through the power lines into my house to get me. The other wasn't a movie but an episode of a tv show (I think it was 'Amazing Stories' but I could be wrong), where the protagonist keeps seeing a figure creeping closer to him from behind whenever he looks in a mirror. It drives him crazy but eventually his girlfriend helps him recover but it ends with him seeing the figure in the reflection of her eyes. I think he jumps out a window or something. I only saw it once but I was scared to look in a mirror for years after that.
