Assuming this is for the Kryptic Army assignment? You fared much better than I - watched the MIMIC series (1 - 3)and three of the CHILDREN OF THE CORN flicks (4 - 6).

I didn't even think about that, but I suppose Dr. Jekyll could qualify for that. On my end, I set my sights on [Rec] 2, Dr. Moreau and Prometheus (if that counts as an Alien prequel, which is open to debate). And I liked the first Mimic when I saw it in theaters a decade and a half ago. I can't imagine the sequels being any good, though.

Aha, that makes sense now. I don't love MIMIC, so the sequels were right on par as amusing monster movies. As for CotC...not so much.

So, had you seen these before? I'm a huge fan of the March J&H, and while it's hard to top Price in HOUSE OF WAX, I really like Lionel Atwill and whatshername as the wisecracking speedtalking reporter.

Yes, this was my first time for both of these. And while I wasn't crazy about Glenda Farrell as the fast-talking reporter in Mystery of the Wax Museum when I watched that a couple years ago, I much prefer her to Lee Tracy's antics in Doctor X. You know it's pretty bad when you want the comic relief to kick the bucket.
