Good horror movies?
« on: September 09, 2012, 12:39:21 am »
Lately these days I get completely bored out of my mind. I'm looking for some decent horror movies to watch. I've seen a lot in the past winter with Deathspirit and I feel like we've watched the best ones out there and there's nothing good left. I thought I'd ask for some suggestions before watching anything because some movies were a fucking waste of time, e.g.: Black Christmas, Rosemary's Baby, etc.

I mostly enjoy mind-fucking movies mostly with twisted endings which cause you paranoia for the next couple of hours, the whole blood and gory types don't affect me much anymore. Examples of the movies I like are:
Shutter (2004) (Taiwanese one) <- You seriously need to watch that one.
Skeleton Key
Sleepaway Camp
and many more.

Any suggestions?

I've heard good things about Deadgirl, I watched about half of it but had to go do other things. It's not so much horror, but more snuff zombie kinda deal, I can see puddi getting his rocks off to it.

Not horror, but something with a great plot twist would be Fight Club, but who hasn't seen it? Ending is epic and worth more than a few watches.

There really isn't a whole lot of good horror movies though, but my recommendations are:

Last House On The Left (both old and new)
Silent Hill (kinda creepy and does well to portray the game)
House Of Wax
House Of A Thousand Corpses (or anything by Rob Zombie really)
Cannibal Holocaust (kinda old but I liked it)
Haunting In Connecticut

My favorite horror movies are the "Halloween" ones with Michael Myers :) and they aren't blood and gory types of movies either, just classics imo.  Great recommendations too, I'll look into some of them :D

I like watching the "Saw" movies, I kind of consider them horror.

I also love the saw movies! I've been a fan since it hit theaters. I went to see almost everyone of them. All the plot twists are great!

I really love how it gives you a different prospective of horror. You really cannot compare Saw's plots, ideas, and style to a different kind of horror movie. Most horror movies have something jumping out at you, Saw keeps you on the edge of your seat the entire time.

-Worst horror movie in history, Jeepers Creepers. I think its more of a comical movie.

The twist was only good for the first one. All squeals expound on it, and add more "twists" that follow the same shit as the first one.

I don't like "conventional" horror movies like Saw or whatever but here are a few really good movies:

-The Thing (1982 version)
-Alien (and Aliens)
-American Psycho
-Prometheus (not really much of a horror movie, more of a sci-fi thriller, but still insanely good)
-Sunshine
-Event Horizon
-Battle Royale (weird hyper violent Japanese movie)
-Tremors

As you can probably tell, I love sci-fi.

Carrie and The Excorcist.

Classics about creepy girls. Had to write an essay comparing the two, best essay subject ever!

Recently gotten into Korean horror movies. I reccomend The Thirst and Hansel and Gretel.

Also The Shining if you haven't seen it.


Peace
