Only speaking for myself but it’s one of my all time favorite movies so, naturally, I’d love to see it come to HHN someday.
As for being well known it actually is considered one of the top grossing horror films of the 80’s, and it even (domestically at least) made more money then some of the movies that have already been featured at HHN.
What I could compare it to experience wise at HHN is Vamp ‘55. I don’t know if you attended that year but IF TLB were to be used at HHN I’d imagine it’d be very similar to that concept accept it’d be all greasers (with some really crazy wigs) and the setting would be along the California coastline in the 80’s instead of a high school in the 50’s.
I don’t know what kind of horror movies you like but if you’re at all into cheesy, 80’s campiness & if you’re a Netflix subscriber, you should give it a try.
