Has anybody seen the special "Midnight Movies" on Encore last night? It was a special documentry about the history of midnight movies spanning from 1970 to 1977. They showed clips from successful midnight films like "Night of the Living Dead", "Pink Flamingo", "Rocky Horror Picture Show", "Eraserhead" and others. I wasn't even born when midnight movies was still around. It was a great special. I love the ending to the special where video tapes came out long before DVD's, midnight movies was fading out. If you have your own midnight movies like I do, I have DVD's or VHS tapes so I can watch every movie that if it's midnight like porn or maybe a Disney movie that is considered to be a midnight movie or maybe I would watch "New Jack City" with Ice-T or a horror film that I have is "Resident Evil". That has some violence to it. I haven't heard midnight movies before my time. Any thoughts about it?
