As we bid farewell to 2011, it’s time for us to look ahead and get excited about the movies that 2012 will bring. The Golden Globes and Oscars haven’t named their favorites yet, but we’re not waiting around for that. We are excited about the future. There are some great movies to look forward to in 2012 – sequels, re-releases, film adaptations, and even a Pixar movie. Distinguished directors like Judd Apatow and Quentin Taratino both have movies coming out next year, so we’re excited for that too.

halloween ii original Halloween Special: Top 5 Horror Movie Sequels That Dont Suck

Most horror movie sequels, and let’s be honest — suck. Essentially a rehash of what made the originals so successful, the average sequel will throw in a few extra kills, gallons of blood, and maybe try to create an unnecessary mythology that explains all the spooky, mysterious stuff that happened the first time. But sometimes (just sometimes), filmmakers manage to get it right, and craft a film that feels like a legitimate continuation of the story. They may not always be perfect, but still worthwhile. As we slide into the Halloween weekend, here’s a list of five sequels worthy of any scary movie marathon.

chrislee08 10 27 Before Saruman or Dooku:  Christopher Lee Had Fangs

Arguably the hardest working villain alive (Dick Cheney notwithstanding), Christopher Lee has a film career going back to the late 40′s. That’s several years before Tolkien published his Rings trilogy and when George Lucas was still in diapers. Now, a full discussion of Mr. Lee’s dramatic roles could fill a film school term paper or at least take several pints of Guinness… yum…. Guinness… but just in time for Halloween comes a recommendation of his 1960s/70s “Dracula” period.
