Horror!
« on: October 28, 2011, 12:32:43 PM »
Anyone else planning to get in the Halloween mood by watching some horror movies this weekend?  I've got some old favorites that I haven't seen in quite a while that I'm ready to see again.  Some of my favorites are:

1.  Psycho
2.  Carrie
3.  The Omen
4.  Rosemary's Baby
5.  Young Frankenstein (not a horror pic per se, but a great spoof nonetheless)

Any other suggestions?   g#$+ g#$+

How can you leave out, The Shining?  "Here's Johnny!"  "REDRUM!"

And, why not An American Werewolf in London?  There's a bad moon rising.

Yes, that was a good one.  I don't own a copy of that.  I should get it.

Gotta have the George Romero Night of the Living Dead movies.

Dawn on the Dead was particularly gross.

I'm really big on older horror films from the 70's to the 80's. I like everything from the more popular like Halloween, The Exorcist, The Shining, Dawn of the Dead...to the real obscure B-grade stuff like Mountaintop Motel Massacre, Slaughterhouse, Don't Torture a Duckling....ALL the way down to Z-grade, shot on video/camcorder schlock (Video Violence, Cannibal Campout, The Burning Moon, The Ripper)

Gotta have the Evil dead series, definitely a classic, and they've got Bruce Campbell. Also the new fright night remake is awesome. And I'm with Ming, you can't forget the shining.

I haven't seen most of those. Only 4. I'll have to check out the others. Just saw the original Let the Right One In about a month ago. I enjoyed how well it incorporated love into a thrilling vampire story. I've heard of Battle Royal, but of course have never seen it. Supposed to be crazy stuff!
I was seriously just talking with my wife last night about what horror movies we should rent this Halloween. We want to go with truly creepy/scary this year. First on my mind was the original Pet Sematary. Haven't seen it in a while, and always gives me the creeps. At least I have 3-1/2 months to make a good list!

Perfect timing then! :)

Battle Royale is pretty crazy! (Think Hunger Games, but made for grown ups... Maybe Tokyo Gore Police is even crazier!) And Pet Cemetery is just great!

Glad you like Let The Right One In!

Hmmm... Creepy/Scary stuff!

Inside is one I'd think fits the bill. It's a bit gruesome as well. It's in French, so if you're ok with subtitle/dubbed moves, it rocks!
The Descent if pretty creepy too.

Maybe I'd suggest [Rec} and 30 Days of Night as well...

You could also try The Orphanage, The Last Exorcism, Pans Labyrinth (Not strictly horror...), Captivity, Vacancy and (again, not quite horror) Hard Candy.

Happy Halloween!  >:D
