PostPosted: 19:49 - 24 Oct 2010    Post subject: some good proper horror movies Reply with quote

ok so with halloween coming up i'd like to show my girlfriend some properly scary movies.
the only film that's really scared me when i watched it the first time was excorsist when i was about 12-13, sat alone in my dark bedroom. 11 years on nothing has come close to topping that feeling of absolute terror. it doesn't bother me now watching it as it's a fantastic film with incredible subplot.
so i'm after something i'v not seen or watched before that's going to do some emotional damage, something so i cant sleep.
no bs like paranormal activity, blair witch, the ring etc...
and not just shock/gore horror like saw or hostel.
i want the full fat "serbian film" of horror.
who thinks they have this movie in their collection?

Only a few pure horror films but if you're a big girls blouse, i guess they'd be very creepy, especially the latest of the bunch Rec.

None will stop you sleeping (unless you're the above) so you'd probably need to go down the fucked up Japanese horror route for that. Laughing

Evil Dead
Chainsaw Massacre (original)
Rec (original)
Rec 2
Candyman
Halloween (original)
Omen
The Shining
In the Mouth of Madness
The Wicker Man (original) The weirdness makes this quite chilling.

Just to add, Blair which was the most effective horror i've seen. A lot don't seem to like it but it was more effective then any film since.

There aren't any. I have been waiting to be scared by a supposed horror film my entire life. Saw I had potential, but then it just got a bit cheesey. Which was a shame.

Most horror films are too funny to believeable. Rolling Eyes

You're kidding right? By 'remake' do you mean sequel or the remake which Rob Zombie directed?

You take everything scary out of the original & make it into a modern horror, it doesn't work. The first Halloween from what i remember was a guy in a mask killing everyone for no reason. The remake is a guy in a mask who was a bullied kid who had a motive, the motive isn't scary, the randomness was.

Not to mention the grainy camera feel.

Try a 1991 film called 'The Haunted'. Creeped me the fuck out, based on a well documented true story too.

Problem is, none of these are scary. Aside Wicker man, not a horror, but made my skin crawl.

Maybe I've seen too many.

Won't watch NMOE Street had nightmares about that as a young teen.

IT is not horror. I watched it with mates when I was about 12 and didn't think much of it.
I was expecting some of those films mentioned but a few i'v not heard of.
Will get some downloads going.

Didn't you read the two sentences above the list then? Laughing

Not everyone has the same tastes, what you find 'not scary' someone else might find scary.

I don't know any. Razz I just know that whatever you can think of, the Japs would have made it. Laughing I don't get on too well with those films tho, more 'shock' then horror.

As i am now, none of these horror film do it for me personally which is why i find the mind feck films more effective i.e Blair Witch. Less is more.

Spanish (from what i remember) Very good movie. The sequel is just as good & clears up the story a bit more. Shaky cam may make you feel a bit sick tho.

This Thumbs Up

Its a low budget movie where the ghosts are only seen as black hazy shadows but for creep out its a winner. I grew up on a diet of horror movies as my mom was a horror movie fan and this one is one of only a few movies that scared me.

Its not a jumpy movie. More a chills up the spine movie.

Another good one is IT simply because I'm terrified of clowns.

See, another film that had potential, but as soon as the clown was disguarded and it was that ugly alien thing, I burst out laughing...it ruined it for me. It should have stayed as the clown. Rolling Eyes

Nightmare on Elm Street definitely had moments where it'd make you jump, but then so did Jaws...especially that under the sea scene where the head pops out that hole... and no matter how many times you watch it, you know it's coming and it still makes me jump - oh how I laugh at myself for jumping!!! Laughing

How about Amityville or Hammer House of Horrors or Omen series? Best watched in black and white in a creaky house. Thumbs Up

The first Nightmare movie, (origional not the remake) was pretty jumpy. Although it relied a lot more on squeamish gore factor than jumps. Very good movie though for those that havent seen it. After the first one the franchise seems to turn into a farce with more and more comedy elements and by the time they released the last Nightmare, Freddies Dead, it was more a comedy.

Wes Cravens New Nightmare was pretty clever. Not so much scary but it was clever.

The jap version of The Grudge and The Ring did it for me. Probably the closest I have come to being scared by a film.

The remake of House on Haunted Hill scared me when I first saw it (14ish). Bought it of eBay for £1 recently for nostalgia - utter garbage and I am ashamed to have been affected. Ali Larter though... Thumbs Up
