If you are looking to buy something for the "red carpet" treatment, this is a good product. It is very thin and the material is inexpensive, but for the price I was impressed. The carpet comes with double sided tape on the bottom at both ends and along the sides. We cut the carpet in half and used half on concrete outside the door and half on carpet inside. The double sided tape wasn't perfect so we used clear masking tape to hold it down. There were 30 people coming and going over it all night and it didn't snag or tear and held up quite well. We took it off the next day and it looked just as good as when we put it down. Yes, you can buy more expensive looking red carpets, but if you just want the look without the cost this is a great product.

I ordered this for my daughter's Sweet 16. It was a great product and worked perfectly!

I was very pleased with my order so i decided to buy 2 more, my wedding is in June and my colors are red and white my aisle will look wonderful.

Got this for my kinder classroom to use to line up on. It was more durable than I figured - lasted about 3 weeks with 22 5 year olds running all over it!

I bought this Item and I was very disappointed with the material. It is so thin that using outdoor it would be blown by the wind and don't look like a carpet at all. I returned the item as soon as I got it.

It freezes water. And does so in a most novel manner!! I'm a toothdork, and as such i find everything toothy absolutely AWEZOME!! Be warned though, the detail in the teeth melts away quickly(duh, it's ice. but some on here actually complain about it). The other night i used the moulds to make some chocolate dentures for our hygienists birthday party at work. Not only did everyone in the office love them, the patients fell in love too!! I think they rather liked the supposed irony. Two things to watch out for- One, air bubbles. As I use the moulds more, the air bubbles seem to dissipate so this might not be a forever issue. Two, when removing the ice/chocolate, follow the directions on the box, and THEN hold upside down and push from the thicker tooth areas. Otherwise, you'll have flying or broken dentures. Oh, buy two. You will be happier. I've only got one, but the next is soon on it's way.

awesome for white elephant gift, although I paid extra for shipping to get before x mas and did not arrive till a few days after, shipping stinks, which ruined my gift.

These are pretty funny. The only downside is they melt fast(duh) and it's hard to tell what they are after a few seconds.

These ice trays were the hit of the Christmas party both at home and work! Everyone wanted to take them home and asked where they came from. These would be great for any party involving gifts opened in front of the crowd.

I threw out my old ice cube trays and just toss these in a ziploc bag when they're frozen and refill the tray. They get a smirk from just about everyone. The one drawback is that they are really difficult to get out of the tray without breaking them. I usually set them upside down on the counter for a few minutes until they melt enough to fall out then right back into the freezer.

This pan is very easy to use and made a great cake. I made it for my daughter's 2nd birthday and she loves elmo. It turned out just like the picture showed! Shipping was also fast and hassle free.

Even for a novice/idiot in the kitchen(me) that never follows directions this cake pan is "easy as pie" or cake. My 2 year old twins LOVED LOVED LOVED their Elmo cake! Buy this pan & you won't regret it. The only thing you will regret is if you don't buy this pan. PS. I frosted my cake with a plastic knife and spoon. No extra tools required.

I bought Elmo's cake pan for my son's 2nd birthday and it was a huge hit. I have never decorated a cake with as much detail as this cake, but it was worth it. It took some time to decorate, but turned out great. Just have to remember to grease the pan and then flour it really good otherwise the cake may not come out completely, especially the nose. So whether you are a cake artist or a beginner like me, you can do it.

I made a smoosh cake for my daughter out of this cake pan. It was my first time so I made a practice cake. If you haven't made a cake before then I would definitley practice. Line the pan with flour and shortening. Don't be shy with this either. I only eneded up frosting instead of the stars since that would have taken hours. It still looked great.

My two-year old grandnephew is into Elmo right now, so I purchased this cake pan to make his birthday cake. This was one of the easier specialty character cakes that I've done over the years and he recognized him right away and loved the cake. Because the whole cake was just the face as opposed to several that are of the entire body, it was much easier to decorate and the indentations were much more distinct. Hopefully, he'll still be into Elmo for a little while longer. I was a little worried that he might be upset about cutting into Elmo's face. However, being all boy, he giggled and laughed and wanted the nose!

This movie is great. More fun and many more laughs. I recommend having a movie night and watching Scary Godmother Halloween Spooktacular and The Revenge of Jimmy. Both movies are now a Halloween tradtion. Great fun for all ages and even us big kids at heart. I love how Hannah saves Halloween in this one. As Scary Godmother would say, "Happy Halloween To All, And To All A Good Fright!"

My 8 and 6 year old have watched this several times. I think that it is a good sequel to the first movie.

The Scary Godmother Halloween specials are very fun. The characters are great and I love the computer animation.

Happy Halloween Amazon customers. This movie is great. My friends and I love the movie and always like to copy parts (like Skully having money in his "other pelvis"). Our favorite part was where Harry loses his signature shirt and even though they censor it you clearly see his body. I think Bert, Darrel, Katie, Hannah, and Jimmy have new voice actors. So I like both but this one much more. They both run for about an hour or so and the price is worth it.

This is a great Sesame St. show! My kids like the ones where there is an actual storyline as opposed to the show itself that goes from skit to skit. This one is very cute and they watch it year round.

I wasn't impressed with this dvd at all. My daughter is an Elmo freak, but even she barely paid any attention to it.

As another reviewer said, every time my children watch this movie and the part about apples and the cider mill they ask for an apple to eat! That is suggestive advertising at its best! (: Elmo, Zoe and Telly are wondering what can they do on a crisp autumn day. And Mumford the Magician sure delivers! This isn't all about Elmo, or even Sesame Street. Takes viewers via hayride to a orchard, a farm at harvest time,a pumpkin patch with pumpkin carving and various halloween parties. A great tool to teach toddlers and kids about fall activities. My kids would request, sit and watch non-stop from around 18 months... and at 8 are still sitting down to watch it. And the best part is 100+ views I can still enjoy parts myself.

I haven't seen the quality of the video. I hope it's to my satisfaction.

This is a cute dvd and talks about how monsters don't have to be scary which is great. Has clips of costume ideas, pumpkin carving, hayride and apple farm. Have had it since my daughter was 2 and we still watch it yr. round 3 yrs. later.

I've enjoyed listening to Vampyre over the past several Halloweens. The music is just right for my front yard graveyard scene. Eerie and romantic, melodic and scary, this music will provide just the right atmosphere for any Halloween party or home display.

Every time I listen to Vampyre, it grows on me more and more. This album is excellent. The music is very spooky and passionate and intense and eerie all at the same time. There are a wide variety of melodies. No two tracks sound the same. One of the strengths of Midnight Syndicate's style of music is that it is more dark classical in nature, without an EXCESS of certain sounds that can liven up the songs, such as chimes, bells, and choirs. They use these sounds, but it's in moderation. I like listening to dark classical/gothic with lots of strings with an occasional accent in each song to liven things up. Midnight Syndicate does this well, and they never go overboard with sound effects. I give Midnight Syndicate credit for having the courage to come up with music for a theme that I feel is probably difficult to portray musically. Coming up with music for an album with a broad vampyre theme that covers the full spectrum of vampyres is not easy. They did an excellent job. Here are the songs: Awakening (good opening atmospheric track), Graveyard (good atmospheric track), Unhallowed Ground (great organ), Crypt Of The Forsaken (eerie), Winged Fury (great melody and passionate), Blackest Rose (very ballad-like with a good melody), Ravages Of Time (melodic, driving, and spooky), Catacombs (ghostly), Unseen Eyes (good transition into Undead Hunters), Undead Hunters (driving rhythm and spooky, and has that "you better watch out" sound to it), Ancient Tomes (great melody and passionate), Dusk (spooky), Spectral Masquerade (good melody), and Vampyre (very dramatic, passionate, and melodic with great sound effects). My favorites are Unhallowed Ground, Winged Fury, Blackest Rose, Ravages Of Time, Catacombs, Undead Hunters, Dusk, Spectral Masquerade, and Vampyre. This is an album that you can play on your stereo while watching a vampire movie with your TV on mute, and the music will fit right in with what you see on the screen. If you like such vampire movies as Salem's Lot (1979), Dracula (1979), and Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), then you should like this. All in all, a solid versatile album that I recommend to anybody who likes dark classical/gothic music that can be used for Halloween or any time you want to relax with great music and not be distracted by it. It's great music to listen to when you're driving down the freeway at twilight with the windows rolled down. Get this disc. You'll love it.

This is background music, not a symphony, soundtrack, or goth music. FYI - it's EXTREMELY repetitive at times and often the synths sound too much like synths, but it's really made for haunted houses, Halloween parties, and the occassional satanic orgy, not for listening to on your ipod. Nearly every review (good and bad) has been accurate in that regard. If you want something soundtrack oriented but more dynamic or musically interesting, get the Nox Arcana albums, or if you want vocals, Nightwish. They're mildly similar, but much livelier. That said, it's very good at what it does - dark background/elevator music for the dentist's chair in hell (or your attraction or party). The Midnight Syndicate CDs are more or less the official haunted house/Halloween party soundtrack besides Nox Arcana. Listen to both bands. Then pick the one that works better for your party or attraction. IMO, the MS albums are more holiday oriented and the NA albums are more darkwave/goth than holiday and attraction oriented (and better for personal listening), but your mileage may vary.

Now what is that that comes to my ears? The sound of an organ reverberating inside of an "abondoned" crypt, seducing me with the promise of fulfilling my dark desires. Luring me deeper and deeper into a hauntingly beautiful world where vampires roam... Yet another masterpiece by some of the night's most talented minstrels.

Midnight Syndicate hits this one out of the park with a hauntingly orchastrated soundscape for the undead.An excellant soundtrack to take along with you on those nightly jaunts through the cemetary when seeking out hungry bloodsuckers.A chilling sometimes melodic compilation.Midnight Syndicate never disapoints.

My granddaughters are great Barney fans even going so far as to name their fish Baby Bop and BJ, so when I saw this DVD at a library booksale it was a no brainer to dive into the table and grab it! The fifty minute Barney DVD has plenty of action ala Barney style along with the music kids seem to love to sing and tap along to.

Super video, great ideas for the holiday. Even better, Halloween is my daughters BIRTHDAY so we get to decorate and celebrate all with barney and her friends. Yeah.............

Barney's Halloween is our favorite fall movie. It has songs about lots of fun fall things like pumpkins, apples etc. More than worth the $10 it costs.

hi i am here to tell a story about mrs cacilio she was over at my house and we wached this so was bella and winter they were so afraid they came runing tword us when mr boyd was dressed as a pirite 4 of us have seen many other ones with mr boyd and they were fine this is one of my faverite barney videos ever

Even for those parents, who are not Barney fans, this DVD is a good one. The songs are cute & our two year old son manages to be able to sing along with some of them. The decorations that they make (spiders from hand prints, ghosts from foot prints) will give you some ideas of ways to entertain your children around Halloween. The costumes are good - certainly not too scary for small children. Overall, our son gives it two thumbs up and requests this DVD by name (even after Halloween)!

I loved this as a child, and my four children all love it now - a definite classic!

I found this movie at F.Y.E for like 7 or 8 dollers, and now it is out of print for like 25-40 dollers! Plot- a group of 10 friends are having a party at an old place called hull house, but soon they release a demon who is possessing them all, so he can slaughter every one of them, will they survive Acting- Quite cheesy which is why i like it Gore- a eye gouging scene, a tongue ripped out, a severed arm and lot more goodies Bottom Line- 4 out of 5 Rated R, Time 90min, 1987, Color

It is total BS what these people do, because the dvds are out of print they way over charged sometimes even up to or over $100. Well for this one don't worry, when the remake comes out I'm sure you can expect the original to come out again in a delux version and maybe even Blu Ray. So wait and see what happens next year. And as for the movie, yea I gave it 5 stars, this is a great movie, I still remember seeing it in the theatres. I grew up on '80s horror movies and that's what I like. If you like demons I also suggest to see Demons 1 & 2, the third one (The Church) isn't as good but it still was an interesting watch.

Stupid. Creepy. Sexist. Violent. Laughable. Welcome to the "Night of the Demons". The film has some of the worst acting ever. The choice in final survivor breaks one of horror's core rules. Thank god. The opening titles have cartoon demons. You will never look at lipstick the same. "Stooge" is one of the greatest characters ever. Highly recommended for a drunken night of movie-watching with friends.

Its Halloween night and you're too cool to attend your school's dance so what's a stereotypical teen to do? Apparently, go to a party at a desolate funeral home that is being hosted by the creepy girl from history class and start getting wasted! It's a time tested recipe for dead teenagers that's been roasted to perfection in Night of the Demons. The party is going swell until an impromptu séance unleashes a demon from the basement's crematorium. Don't you just hate it when that happens? The setup is just laughable. First off, Angela (Amelia Kincade), the gothic chick, throws the party and she only invites seven people! Worse yet, none of them seem to really like one another. It quickly becomes apparent that everyone is just one bad decision away from becoming demon fodder. For fun try to figure out who will survive until the end! Character development is non-existent, but surprisingly some of the teens do slightly break away from their stereotypical roles. Angela is the star of this freak show and after her interpretive dance to Bauhaus's "Stigmata Martyr" the movie bursts into high gear. She turns into a demonic hag and I'll admit its creepy watching her glide across the dilapidated floors searching for fresh meat. One by one new victims become possessed and each has their own devilish persona. Watching survivors flee in terror from their former classmates is mean and just plain fun. The minute Night of the Demons started up with its modestly animated credits I knew I was going to enjoy it. It's full of clichés, laughable (read: quotable) dialog and amateurish acting, but the entertainment factor is through the roof. There is a superfluous boob or beaver shot seemingly every few minutes and it's loaded with imaginative gore effects. We're also treated to a scene with a pair of breasts and tube of lipstick that simply must be seen! The claustrophobic atmosphere is perfect and it's coupled with a fun metal and synthesizer driven soundtrack. If you can't tell, Night of the Demon's is one wild movie that exemplifies all that is good about horror in the 80s. Night of the Demons is a great movie to break out around Halloween. It's a self aware low budget schlock-fest that knows to keep it focus on R rated material. Director Kevin Tenney employs some of Sam Raimi's camera tricks which give this the feel of a poor man's Evil Dead. Younger horror buffs might find this atrocious, but those that lived through the 80s will undoubtedly enjoy this one. Final Grade: B

And that's just one of the subtle, poetic lines of dialogue that will grace your ears upon watching Night of the Demons. This is a note worthy exercise in pure 80's horror cheesiness that doesn't disappoint. Basically the weird goth girl in class decides to throw a Halloween party at the haunted, or rather "possessed" Hull House. In attendance is a motley assortment of punk teens, most of which you can't wait to see get killed. Little do they know that Halloween is the only night of the year that demon spirits are released from hell and are free to roam the earth once again. Upon performing a seance, the demon inhabitants of the Hull House wreak havoc leaving little chance to escape the house alive. Night of the Demons is your typical stalk and slash fare. Where it really succeeds is the dark atmosphere of the Hull House. The desolate hallways, creaky floor boards, and slits of moonlight coming through the boards over the windows are really what makes this movie. Every other aspect is definietly secondary to the setting and it's atmosphere. The acting for the entire cast unanimously routine, gore effects are adaquete. The soundtrack is largely comprised of synth music, but features a lot of 80's metal as well to ensure maximum cheese. Overall it's just a fun movie with a tinge of creepiness and some dark humor thrown in for good measure. Also it has a great ending that delivers justice to sickos that tamper with kid's trick-or-treat candy. Must see material for 80's horror fans.
