philthephorce Posted May 4, 2007 Posted May 4, 2007 The Shining, The Excorsist, Friday the 13th 1, Texas Chainsaw Massacre (70's version), Cannibal Holocaust (actually can't watch it in one sitting), Halloween, Alien.
hihi2 Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 I LOVE horror films, some of my favorites: Jaws, favorite overall. The Beyond by Lucio Fulci Cannibal Holocaust Hostel Texas Chainsaw Massacre Zombie Flesh Eaters, also Fulci Friday the 13th part 2,3,4 and 6 Aliens Am I the only one who´s really looking foward to 28 weeks later?
SonOfBeastSucks Posted May 5, 2007 Posted May 5, 2007 ^I think 28 Weeks Later looks pretty good. I saw Rosemary's Baby for the for the first time the other night. I liked it, but I don't see how it is one of the most famous horror movies in the world. The only parts that were even supposed to be scary were in the last half hour of it.
hihi2 Posted May 11, 2007 Posted May 11, 2007 Here you can watch Evil Dead 3: Army of Darkness if interested, http://www.youtube.com/user/DRAGONL90 To everyone who hasn´t seen this masterpiece, do it! It´s one of the few films I rate 10/10, it´s really hillarious. Both endings, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uEdmdcVuNWc Deleted scenes part 1, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DUh1lBIMUVM Deleted scenes part 2, http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zO8sH2xtktc Info. http://www.us.imdb.com/title/tt0106308/ Btw, anyone who´s seen this film, anyone agree that it´s a joke that it´s rated R? LOL!
philthephorce Posted May 12, 2007 Posted May 12, 2007 Yeah, an R is a bit much... I forgot about the most f-ed up and disturbing movie I've ever seen: Eraserhead.
hihi2 Posted May 12, 2007 Posted May 12, 2007 AoD should be rated G imo. A question to the people on this board, which Evil Dead is best in your opinion?
philthephorce Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 I like Evil Dead 2. The first one didn't seem to know which direction to go...comedy (intentional or not?) or straight on horror? pharce? spoof? i dunno. AoD was good, but I'll still give it to ED 2 because it corrected the tone of ED 1 and set the tone for AoD.
LOVE SFKK Posted May 13, 2007 Posted May 13, 2007 I just saw 28 weeks later, and it was really really good. Others include 28 days later and the descent
downunder Posted May 17, 2007 Posted May 17, 2007 Cannibal Holocaust, that was damn nasty though I found it quite valid in terms of it's commentary on media and human nature, which I found surprising. The similiar Cannibal Ferox made me feel numb for days after. Lucio Fulci made some very atmospheric though not entirely logical horror films, and he also made the New York Ripper where the killer talks like Mickey Mouse and quacks like a duck, very strange. I saw the Descent last year, that was a really good horror movie.
hihi2 Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 downunder, can you immagine how diffrent the taste is, I hate The Descent but NY Ripper is one of my favorite films.
swampfox Posted May 21, 2007 Posted May 21, 2007 I like Dario Argento films. Suspiria, Inferno, Tenaebre, Profondo Rosso... Mario Bava is good too. Twitch of The Death Nerve, Baron Blood, Shock, Black Sunday, Black Sabbath. George Romero's scariest is a little known film called Martin. It's amazing. Very different. The dead series is also amazing. Lucio Fulci's The Beyond is awesome. Others worthy of comment... Jacob's Ladder, Willard (70s version), Nightmare on Elm Street and New Nightmare, The Exorcist 1 and 3, The Haunting (1960s), Ju-On, Ringu, The Eye, The Shining, Nosferatu, and Salem's Lot (70s).
jason10 Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Here are my top 3. 1. Pooh Bear Movie (The bit where pooh asks tiger for honey... *Shiver*) 2. Ice age (Manty is Scary!) 3. Matilda (I hate Miss Trunchable)
coaster_type_of_person Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 ^wow. ms. trenchible is a freak though. Halloween is the only movie i cannot watch alone. Such a low budget movie and a movie that no one cared to publish, but no look at it. Rob Zombie's Halloween comes out August 31st.
shepp Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Just saw 28 Weeks Later, and found it one of the most frightening films I've ever seen.
Movieguy Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 I am a horror aficionado, and I can go on forever on the subject. I recently talked about 28 Weeks Later...I saw the first movie, 28 Days later, on DVD, and was a bit underwhelmed by it. Sure, the "zombies" were awesome, but about halfway, the film takes a complete 180 and becomes less and less interesting. 28 Weeks Later never takes its focus off what we all came to see, and gives it a twist of the tragic. There was one scene in particular (those who've seen it know what I'm talking about) that was horrifying, but also sad at the same time. I've never seen a horror movie really dabble in that before. I am also a fan of Argento's and saw another well made work of his called "Opera" a few days ago. If you have Netflix, I strongly suggest putting that in your queue. Another obscure title I recommend is "Nightmare in A Damaged Brain". While it lacks the style and finesse of Argento, it more than makes up for it in sheer brutality. A gore-fiend's dream.
shepp Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 ^ The DVD thing brings up something interesting. I think one reason 28 Weeks worked so well for me is because I saw it on a big screen in a dark theater. Weeks' relentless visual technique would work a lot less well at home. I've really tried to love Argento, but I too often find his cinematic technique - at least in the badly dubbed versions I've seen - somewhat lacking. Bad zooms, awkward pans, off-target edits. The music's great, though...
Movieguy Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 ^ oh yeah, I may be a fan, but I know he's far from infallible in his style. Everyone is always so hot for Suspiria, when it's really just an average horror film with one or two great kills. What really makes it is Goblin's wonderful soundtrack.
Fry Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 I love horror films, and my favorites would be... -Saw -Alien -Scream (well, not out-and-out horror, but a fantastic film) -Halloween -Texas Chainsaw Massacre (remake) -Cube -The Ring In that order.
sfgadviperboi Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 The Descent - The scariest movie I have seen High Tension - The goriest movie I have seen 28 Weeks Later - The most frightening movie I have seen .... and Cursed for the most all around enjoyable horror/comedy movies I have seen since Scream.
Mr. Volcano Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Some of the titles listed can be seen as Sci-Fi... but they're probably Sci-Fi horror films to me. Okay, heres some of my 'favorite' horror movies, not in any particular order. Alien & Aliens, SAW 1-3, The Fly (Original & Remake), Event Horizon, 28 Days Later, Dead Alive, Evil Dead 1-3, Creepshow, Blair Witch Project, Bad Taste, Dawn of the Dead (Original & Remake), Night of the Living Dead (Dont care for the remake, LOVE the original) , Descent, Hills Have Eyes (Original & Remake), High Tension, The Wicker Man (Original), The Ugly, Texas Chainsaw Massacre (I suppose I kindof like both...), Return of the Living Dead, Re-Animator, Cabin Fever, Hellraiser, Sleepy Hollow, Village of the Damned (Original & Remake) Wow thats alot of horror movies. -Justin
Ryan King Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 The film that recently made me cringe the most was 28 Weeks Later... It was MUCH different then the first..more gore etc. I just wasn't prepared for the amount of gore in this one..but overall it was a well done movie!! -Ryan
dragoncoaster1292 Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 Well, let's see: (NOTE: these are in no particular order; I'm just rattling them off as I think of them) Candyman The Serpent and the Rainbow The Haunting (1960s version) Saw THe Sixth Sense Scanners (*shudders*) The Uninvited (obscure 1950s ghost story. Find it and watch it!)
kennywood!007 Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 High Tension. OMG. The part where the guys head gets taken off. Wow. Now that freaked me out. *Edit* Hostel, was also a lot of very, very cringing moments. Like the "EYE" scene....EW. Just Ew.
