Horror Film Fans? - Page 2

NJFemmie · 11-30-2009, 02:03 PM

I'm a big horror fan - but I am not too crazy about zombie movies. I can watch them now, but Dawn of the Dead (the original) still gives me the creeps.

Apocalipstic · 11-30-2009, 02:13 PM

Both Night of the Living and Dawn of the Dead creep me out!

I saw them both at the theatre on the late show when I was 17.

Big horror fan here. Big, big monster fan. I especially love the Universal monster classics (Creature from the Black Lagoon is my all-time fave, considering, to me, he's the only *real* monster of the group, the rest spending at least half their time in human form. Even Frank was made of human parts).
Love Hammer horror movies, 50s and 60s - especially the horror-of-personality and Atomic Age exploitation films (oh the terror of social alienation, how I relate to thee), Italian horror, Hitchcock, zombies, werewolves, aliens/UFO abductions, good ole cannibalism, anything obscure or underground, especially if it's been burned or banned somewhere at some point.

Some faves include:
George Romero's Night of the Living Dead
The Exorcist
Psycho
The Descent
High Tension
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The Entity
The Hills Have Eyes
Jaws

Vincent Price was a class act. I'm trying to get my hands on a copy of his cookbook - apparently he was quite the gourmand.

Only one so far I've not been able to watch (only a few minutes in and had to stop) was Last House on the Left. If you've seen it you know why or if you know the history of the original (Wes Craven's first film) you'll understand.

Has anyone seen House of the Devil? I'm dying to see it.

Does anyone else think the little girl in The Ring looks like an evil Holly Hobby?

Totally.

I think Holly Hobbie's scarier though. Even for the 70s, Holly's look was anachronistic, which would mean that either (1) she has access to a time machine that brings her to and from the prairie frontier, or (2) she belongs to some kind of polygamist cult. Either way that dress was meant to hide her teen pregnancy. I'm sure of it.

I agree, my sister's entire bedroom was HH and they never showed her face. Creepy!

When I saw The Ring, it all made sense!

Yes, I liked that one a lot. I love it when they mix science fiction and horror.

NotAnAverageGuy · 11-30-2009, 08:22 PM

The Butterfly Effects 1-3 are three movies I highly recommend

I don't know, I tend to watch the old ones I love over and over. Some of the newer ones are too gory for me....

Constantine

Interview with a Vampire (love the book more)
Queen of the Damned (the music was awesome too)
All of the Phantasms (love the tall man)

The list goes on.........

One of my favorite scenes of all time is Lance Kerwin floating outside the window in the old Salem's Lot.

I like to run the DVD back and forth and watch him appear.

I also run the Omen (original one) back and forth like when the photographer gets his head lopped off and the priest gets impaled.

Yes, a bit sick I know

Duchess · 12-01-2009, 10:46 AM

Evil Holly Hobby..I love it
I love The Ring, especially when she's walking towards the tv. That disconnected look is really creepy.

Can't forget Tales From the Darkside .

Duchess
