Best Horror Films?
 

I like to have movies on while I work. Last night I picked up Halloween, Dawn of the Dead, and Faculty.

Which horror films should I look for next?

Depends on what type of horror ya like.

I personally like in the mouth of madness and last house on the left. Two different ends of the spectrum.

I just saw this one a few weeks ago that I rented.

I think that Dusku (sp?) chick was in it, looked pretty new.

These kids are driving in like West Virginia or something and are getting hunted down by the canable hillbilly's.

Sounds hoaky, but it made me jump a few times :thumbsup

The Ring is pretty cool.

But the best horror experience is playin "Silent Hill" 1 or 3 on a playstation. Scary stuff!

Freddy :thumbsup

I think it was Silent Hill or Clocktower or something like that that really freaked me out. It was a little girl trying to kill me with a knife. Its pretty bad when the games spook you :1orglaugh

rent Battle Royale (Batoru rowaiaru)
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0266308/

All the way! His movies are always funny (and corny some times) and give always good gore scenes :thumbsup

Texas Chainsaw Massacre by far :)


Couldn't sleep for a week after that one (was like 7 yrs/old at the time)

Phantasm

House on the haunted hill was pretty good
and Event Horizon (sci fi horror)

Wich one?
the 57 version or the 99 one?

Passion of the christ

The Mummy ( the original)
Ok, so I like B corny old school Horror flicks. :thumbsup

:eek7

Yup hence why I said depends. Some like slashers, others gore, some psychological terror, some just like loud noises and cats jumping out of the fucking cabinet, or plain spooky story lines or something original.

yes I lost all concept of the english language in that post I aint fixing it.

heard its up there on the gore factor.

is it me or do a lot of the newer horror films suck ass.

confirmed.

They dont make them anymore like on the 70-80´s...

:(

cabin fever

stupid, but gross

i'll never look at a pancake the same way again:1orglaugh

the shinning:thumbsup

all the "Screams" and "I Know what you did last summer(1-2)" are probably the worst ones!

If your into Gore movies, try braindead(Peter Jackson)

Without doubt The Exorcist. It's got some gore and a creepy story. It has stood the test of time very well.

and I just rented something called "the secret adventures of tom thumb", which was in the comedy section (no idea why), and scary in that "WTF?!!" kindof way; like an hour long Tool video.

The Serpent and the Rainbow freaks the shit out of me everytime!:helpme

it's funny...all these movies mentioned, and my 2 faves nowhere to be found. I love 'The Omen' and 'Rosemary's Baby'. Scary as hell in an atmospheric way...

seen some good titles already..

In the mouth of madness is an underrated title..but surely a great one. Event horizon a sf/horror flick is one of my all time favorites

Skip all the modern crap like freddy vs jason and buy..

EVIL DEAD 2

i'm not gonna say this in every thread..but you won't listen

EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ... EVIL DEAD 2 ...

The japanese version of The Ring is pretty scary

Can not forget the Triology of Terror and that fucking doll.

The Shining

oh, Alien and Jaws, if you'd consider them horror........

Alien is also one of the very best sci-fi movies ever made, imho

:thumbsup

yea Evil Dead 2 is great, but it isn't the scariest fucking movie... more plain goofy than anything.

I was lucky enough to see it in a drive-in theater when it was released, that was pretty cool.

Someone mentioned the cube... My god that movie does your head in when you're stoned :(

haha, good try at getting Fletch to post...

:thumbsup :thumbsup BRAINDEAD & BADTASTE :thumbsup :thumbsup

Funny as hell !

Agreed, those movies kick asses, but they are not scary, just funny and gross.

i gotta vote for The Exorcist. that movie scares me every single time

Thats a lot of favorites. If you were to pick the best 5 lesser known gems of these, which would you choose ?

I would definitely go with Ginger Snaps and Dog Soldiers in this list too.

Do you guys even know what horror movies are? Mummy, Aliens, Jaws WTF!?!?!

Hellraiser 1 through 4
Dawn of the Dead
Day of the Dead
Night of the living dead
Return of the living dead
Halloween 1, 2, 3
The Shining
Evil Dead 1, 2
Army of Darkness
Poltergeist
House of 1000 Corpses

Just some of my personal favorites.

Anyone ever seen any of these films?
Unearthed Films
All japanese horror films, and they look pretty gruesome! :thumbsup

I've got the limited edition 8 disc Guinea Pig box set. I've only watched the first one "Devil's Experiment". Very brutal stuff. I've got Junk on dvd, but haven't watched it. I've seen the first Evil Dead Trap, I liked it, haven't seen part 2 yet. Another good Japanse film I would recommend is Stacy

all the zombie flicks already mentioned since zombie movies rock, also dont forget resident evil just because it has zombies :thumbsup
and i agree house on haunted hill with geoffrey rush is a fave,
I also liked the other dark castle films 13 ghosts and ghostship
also here's some others i listen to while i work: the fog, tcm 1 & 3, almost all the friday the 13ths,
halloween 1 & 2, creepshow 1 & 2 and pumpkinhead heh

by the way i havent seen wrong turn, was it any good?

p.s. loved the faculty, you may also enjoy deep rising and virus

actually we can forget that one, because it was awful. :)
another good zombie movie I don't think anyone has mentioned is Hell of the Living Dead.
