Rosemary's Baby, The Shining, Nosferatu, Don't Look Now, The Wicker Man, The Haunting (original), Near Dark, Fright Night....

[The Taxi Driver]

o yea nosferatu thats the sh*t i havent seen that in a while

The Exorcist, Rosemary's Baby, The Thing, and The Shining.

As for the Romero collection, Night of the Living Dead [1968] is a great horror movie. If you're a teenager you might find this film boring since its black and gray but if you don't mind that then you won't have any problems. Dawn of the Dead [1978] is a great sequel. One of my favorite horror movies of all time. They just released the original on dvd and its a must get. Day of the Dead [1985] is the weakest film of the trilogy but its still a good movie to watch.

[The Taxi Driver]

im 14 years old but i dont give a crap what color a movie is as long as its good.

[bluebottle]

Apart from those already mentioned, I'd suggest Alien, Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1978), The Thing, and the excessively gory Braindead. Have fun. :)

[The Taxi Driver]

i just got back from the store with Halloween 2. it may not considered to be a classic but the first one is my all time fav. horror movie and i jus love the series so im going to buy them all. (except halloween 3 and ressurection because they suck). in my mind the series ended in halloween H20 any sequels after that dont count to me.

[LordSlaytan]

I suppose it depends on what type of horror you like. Does your taste primarily lead you to ‘slasher’ films, or the more psychological? Holden has some great ones on his list like Rosemary’s Baby, but don’t expect to see a single drop of blood. Other great horror films that haven’t been mentioned yet that I like include: The Omens I & II, The Blair Witch Project, Burnt Offerings, Tales from the Hood, An American Werewolf in London, Howling, HellRaisers I & II, Storm of the Century, and In the Mouth of Madness.

recentyl i have been bying the friday the 13th movies each time i go to suncoast

[The Taxi Driver]

i like mostly any horror as long as it makes me jump like halloween or creeps me out like the shining and if it doesnt do that then i am always open to new types so i will see any horror movie as long as im pretty sure its good. and although halloween is a slasher film there is barley any blood in it. and Frank Castle i dont really like friday the 13th that much they r worth watching at least once but i dont think they r buyable. Jason is to much like a copy of the original slasher Michael Myers. they are both unstoppable killing machines with no sympathy for anything. the only thing is Michael was made first but i do like the nightmare on elm street series.

sorry bro i dont mean to argue but jason does has compassion withch is why i like michael better. Michael has tried countlessly TO KILL KIDS.
while jason has compassion for kids. But im only buying the movies so i can well see all of them i have seen all of the halloween movie and my nest series is the nightmare on elm street series

[The Taxi Driver]

o i dont wana argue either i jus thought u were sayin friday the 13th was better than halloween. nightmare on elm street is awesome though. but my props go to the original slasher film halloween.

[Richard Hell]

totaly agree

[Fall-from-Grace]

Glitter was really scary.

[The Taxi Driver]

Sleepaway Camp and From Dusk Till Dawn Box Set. Why not get the Scream Trilogy why you are at it?

Rosemary's Baby, The Shining, Nosferatu, Don't Look Now, The Wicker Man, The Haunting (original), Near Dark, Fright Night....

All of the above add some Argento to that list, The Dead films, Carrie, Braindead aka Dead Alive (excellent suggestion there) Re-animator and From Beyond (video only and very hard to find) Dead and Buried, House (Comedy more than horror, but it works for me) the Gate, The Beyond, and Spiral.

That should adequately warp your young mind ;)

[Dazed&Confused]

Did anyone mention The Texas Chainsaw Massacre?
I would also add Psycho, The Thing and Night of the Living Dead

[DancingMonkey]

THE BLOB!!!!!! i saw it when i was little and it scared the crap outta me.

[halloween fan #1]

i agree with castle, micheal ussaly has a plan to kill, jason kills everything that moves, in my mind micheal takes all, just my opinion though

[Escape]

THE BLOB!!!!!! i saw it when i was little and it scared the crap outta me.
Well, the blob from the 50's was cool. It was a different time and different atmosphere. I believe that movie was in color too. Personally, I enjoyed The Thing (1982), The Omen, Wrong Turn, and the Exorcist, Jeeper's Creepers 1 mabe 2, Final Destination 1 mabe 2, the Hitcher(1986), Duel which is more of a thriller, Road Games which i heard was good but have yet to see it myself, and Prom night is a little freaky, but i only saw that when i was just an 11 year old kid so that may have had something to do with it.
Oh and i can't forget Scream, which was more of a comedy/horror than anything.

The scariest movies I've seen and the only horror/thriller movies in my current CD collection are Jeepers Creepers I & II, Final Destination I & II, Joy Ride (my favorite-- "Candycane!!!!"), and Pacific Heights-- hey I thought it was scary! Don't ever be a landlord!

[Sexy Celebrity]

Tetsuo: The Iron Man
I second that. I didn't really find it enjoyable... but it's freaky. I've only seen it once, years ago. Still freaked out by it.
