Some other standout horrors are obviously the original A Nightmare on Elm Street, Saw and Alien. Sadly, what always happens in Hollywood is, they get greedy ideas and milk the crap out of everything that is successful at the box office in the scares department. Doing 70's and 80's style films with a 2010s feel isn't always gonna work. It rarely did in the 90's either, so why not just leave well enough alone and invent newer franchises so we can leave the classics not spoiled?

Not including Sci-Fi Horror (although one of my favourite genres):
Freaks The Birds Rosemary's Baby Night of the Living Dead Jaws Carrie The Omen Damien: Omen II The Shining An American Werewolf in London 28 Days Later/28 Weeks Later REC World War Z Drag Me to Hell The Cabin in the Woods Would be great to see original "Freaks" & compare, though of course not possible Honourable mention to: - Salò - the only film that caused me a kind of mini-trauma and would never watch again Haven't seen yet but supposed to be very good/excellent, looking forward to:-- Let the Right One In Dawn of the Dead (both '78 and '04) It Follows It Comes At Night Train to Busan |

Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
I guess this is as good a thread as any to make my first post. The films aren't in any specific order and I'm probably forgetting some.
Let the Right One In (2008) Dark Waters (1993) Alucarda (1977) City of the Living Dead (1980) The Beyond (1981) Lemora: A Child's Tale of the Supernatural (1973) Event Horizon (1997) Ringu (1998) Kairo (2001) Dark Water (2002) The Exorcist (1973) The Thing (1982) Suspiria (1977) Alien (1979) |
I always said that Intruder (1989) was the Citizen Kane of 80s horror slashers. |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
Thinking of watching these, what I’d call obscure horrors: the fun house 1981, don’t look now 197 and the addiction 1995.
Have you seen them and recommend them? |

Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
There are so many awesome horror movies but I like Paranormal Activity because they don't show anything still you feel fear while watching it.

I don't think I've mentioned Entity (2012) yet on this thread either. That's a very scary concept.
I also think The Daisy Chain (2008) works very well as a horror film. |

Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
Might be more of a thriller, but Fallen from '98 is one of my top 10 faves. No special effects, no gore, not even a visible villain... but man does the demonic threat keep you on the edge of your seat. 10/10 acting from Denzel, Goodman and Gandolfini too.

Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
The Shining is my favorite horror
but Sinister is something special for me. |
I Like Horror movies, i most watched movies
Saw IT Mirrors |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?

Conjuring |

https://vimeo.com/27753205 That was a horror for an epileptic. |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
I think the horror movie(s) that played the most pivotal role is capturing my love for the genre are:
Friday the 13th Series - A hockey masked killer wielding a machete was f***ing scary when I was 14 years old drinking iced-coffee after 11pm. Halloween - The blank canvas killer that is Michael Myers...A face that haunts you in your sleep. The Texas Chainsaw Massacre - Sheer brutality and the messed up nature of this movie still freaks me out. Some other notable mentions... The Hills Have Eyes Psycho The Shining |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
This is just a few. ...
My Bloody Valentine (1981) The Uninvited (1944) Sennetuntsche (Swiss Horror) Sauna (Finnish History/Horror) The Heirloom (2005 Taiwanese Horror) And a lot of mainstream Bloomhouse films movies by James Wan movies by Leigh Whannell whether you agree with me or not... this is still my opinion. |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
Well these are a few.
1. The Shining 2. The Texas Chainsaw Masscare 3. The Conjuring I'm now excited for The Nun. Hope it turns out to be good. |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (the '74 original) still remains my all-time favorite these days.
This year's Trench 11, Along Came the Devil and Boarding School really surprised me at how good they were. Return of the Living Dead The Lift (Dutch horror film about elevators causing death) It (both the 1990 and the 2017 film) Demons (Lamberto Bava's 1985 classic about moviegoers who either turn into the titular demons or fight to survive) |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
What the heck do people see in the Exorcist and the Shining?
Anyway my three would be: Lovely Molly Hostel The thing |

A father’s neglectfulness and violent attitude blown up to its extremes through alcoholism don’t do it as a horror film basis?
|
I'd recommend Honeymoon (2014) as a really good, unsettling horror film. It has everything I think.
|
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
Not my favorite genre but I thought Blair Witch Project and the Ring were pretty scary/suspensful
|
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
"Nightbreed"
is a 1990 film written & directed by Clive Barker, starring Craig Sheffer, Anne Bobby, David Cronenberg, Charles Haid, Hugh Quarshie & Doug Bradley. |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
Hi friends! “Quiet Place” is a good horror movie with some great atmosphere, sound design and special effects. I saw this movie in theatre along with my wife and must say that it met all my expectations. As we both like horror movies and therefore we always try to watch horror movies in accompany of each other. I greatly recommend everyone to see this.
|
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
Hi all! I like to watch such films with friends. I also like movies based on true stories, but... horror based on a true storie it's... horrible. Anyway, here some movies on Netflix based pn a true stories https://www.bestadvisor.com/how-to/b...n-a-true-story
Have a good day and be a good person |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
saw movie trilogy
|
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
The exorcist is the best horror movie I've seen.
A lot of people think it's a bit slow and dated, but I think the best way to defend my choice is to point out how the entire movie is about extremes. Quiet and noisy, dark and white, the beginning which is in Iraq, to the other extreme of your average American city (Georgetown). The innocent young girl vs. the demon possessed, the young priest and the old, the famous movie star and the single mother who has a possessed daughter. The young priest who has lost his faith, to the old priest who has more than faith, but actual certainty that good and evil exist. |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
I grew up in a shore town and seeing "The Birds" as a kid shook me. Flocks of birds still make me uncomfortable.
|
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
I will go slightly off topic and not focus on well known films like Exorcist, Psycho, Shining etc that everyone has seen or at least knows about and will throw some true gems your way for anyone interested.
Vacancy The Cremator (Czech) [Rec]2 Green Room Jacob's Ladder I sell the dead (comedy horror) Open Grave You're Next The Dead (2010) Pandorum The Human Race The Mist Dellamorte Dellamore Granted, some of those I haven't seen for many years, but I still remember fondly. |
I love horror, always have, but have an especially soft spot in my heart for those corny, campy 80's flicks.
Night of the Demons Pumpkinhead The Return of the Living Dead Critters C.H.U.D. The Evil Dead Silver Bullet Maximum Overdrive |
Probably my least favorite genre. Not a fan of excessive gore. But do have a few I enjoy.
An American Werewolf in London The Thing Zombieland Shaun of the Dead Rosemary's Baby The Other ('72) |
Re: Best horror movies you've ever watched?
Hmm, my Top 5 of more-or-less "pure" horror (no sci-fi) is...
However, if I wanted to go off the beaten path a bit and recommend a few more obscure ones, here's a bunch...
