I'm such a wuss and hate horror films. Anything with creepy kids in is just awful. The Exorcist. Fucking hell. The one witj Robert De Niro and that creepy kid (can't remember the name). I hate it all. Thirteen ghosts, poltergiest, nightmare on elm street, too scary. But if I had to choose a favourite it would be Scream.

The Thing (1982): My all time favorite has it all. Scary story with some pretty gory and amazing special effects.

The Fly: The remake with Jeff Goldbloom. I liked that the transformation was gradual and not immediate like the first film.

Alien: The first and the best of the Alien films.

I Married A Monster From Outer Space: Terrible title, but the movie was actually very good with some real scary parts.

The Incredible Shrinking Man: A favorite of mine growing up.

4 D Man: A man invents a machine that enables him to pass through solid objects. The problem is it ages him and the only way to maintain his youth is to absorb the energy from other people by reaching into them (killing them in the process), something he discovers by accident with a friend of his.

Invasion Of The Body Snatchers: Both the original and the first remake. They should probably make a comedy version with the pods arguing with each other. "Oh great! Why does the ugly one have to fall asleep next to me!" or "If they put me next to a cancer patient, I'm going to be really pissed!"

Earth Vs The Giant Spider: Not really scary, but a fun movie to watch. There is a scene in a high school classroom where a female student asks her boyfriend if he can borrow a car from a friend of his who happens to sit directly in front of him. When the friend turns to him, he looks like he's 40 years old.

Can't add much to what's gone before. Of course I haven't read every post on this thread but one people seem to be missing is the original (Romero) Dawn of the Dead (1973). Almost perfectly done. Scary as all hell zombie dystopia; laced with sharp, subtle social commentary. One of my favorites of any genre.

Actually, Body Snatchers (1993), directed by Abel Ferrara and starring Gabrielle Anwar, which was the third film based on the novel wasn't bad either. I'd rank it well behind the '56 and the '78 (which is my favorite version) but still a good watch.

So frikkin scary, partly because it's so dreamlike (nightmare-like?). Strikingly original, even after all these years.

I also like all three Body Snatchers movies. The 56 is my fave of the bunch, though that scream-y tongue thing Sutherland does at the end of the 78 version is creepy a f.

I have too many favorite horror movies to list. They're on some other thread somewhere. Last GREAT horror movie I saw was The VVitch.

I saw that one too along with The Invasion with Nicole Kidman. There is a new movie out called Assimilate, which is also an Invasion Of The Body Snatchers type of film. I haven't seen it, but the preview looks promising.

Another movie that should be remade is Island Of Terror, about medical scientists trying to find a cure for bone cancer and instead end up creating a creature that literally sucks the bones out of its' victims. Maybe instead of having an external creature, have it attacking from within, at first eating away the bone cancer, but then evolving to the point of consuming even healthy bone tissue. That would be a scary and painful way to die, made more scary when the organisms evolve to the point of being able to survive outside of the body long enough to infect others.

God so many!
The original Omen trilogy (have to tolerate the the 2nd to get to the conclusion).
The Saw films, I'm most amazed at the insane minds that keep coming up with new ways to kill people biggrin
Season of the Witch with Nick Cage was a recent discovery.

Do enjoy Van Helsing and love the sympathetic way they did Frankenstein's monster.

The Eye and The Grudge (either version), the original The Ring. When it comes to Asian horror, 90% of the time I would plump for the original with sub-titles. Some great stuff came out of that region.

From Beyond the Grave (1974) an anthology from Hammer House of Horror, one story is one of 2 horrors to get me truly on the edge of my seat scared.
The other is The Haunting (1963) the 1999 remake was not too bad, but give me the b/w original everyday.

It has horror in the title - The Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975) nothing more need be said.

Watched this recently. It made an impression but will have to do a second viewing sober. Some reviews say it is more a complex study of bereavement than a horror film. I would go along with that.




BLURBSophia has a steely look in her eyes as she insists on renting an old house in the remote countryside. She gives the estate agent a little extra cash for no questions asked. Sophia collects a man at the nearby train station. Joseph Solomon is a northern, coarse man. And an occultist. She needs him to perform an ancient invocation ritual, the Abramelin, to summon up Sophia's Guardian Angel so her wish can be granted. She wishes to talk to her murdered child; it's a desire that consumes her. The ritual is an extremely arduous one. They seal themselves in the house, possibly having to stay there for months as it plays out. As they get deeper into the rite they run the risk of turning on each other and going mad. But when Solomon finds out that Sophia has not been truthful about her wish, a greater danger threatens them. In the dark, they find that they are no longer alone in the house. They are now in the world of real angels, and real demons. The house is surrounded with a line of salt. It is the only protection they have. They must not cross it, no matter how bad it gets, no matter how much they want to run. A Dark Song is the story of two people risking hell to journey through the darkness of their souls. 2016 Fantastic Films. Under Exclusive License to Kaleidoscope Home Entertainment Ltd.

I like many "true" classic horror films likened to "The Pit and the Pendulum" or the many others from the Vinson Price, Lon Chaney era,
I was wild eyed watching them with mum when I was younger,
but my favorite of the not so similar genre ist the semi-horror/comedy film "Young Frankenstein".

I normally don't like horror films. Life is terrifying enough, thankyouverymuch, and I identify with the victims far too easily.

I do love the original classics, Dracula, Frankenstein etc the original Halloween. Stephen Kings Salems lot put the shits up me when I was younger but more recently I love the paranormal ones involving Ed and Lorraine Warren and the first paranormal activity. I love horror films, can't beat a good scare.

Yeah, it really is a superb film — responsible for the current interest in folk Horror, along with Witchfinder-general and The Blood On Satan's Claw.


There are loads of short documentaries on Youtube about Folk Horror. Just type folk horror revival and enjoy.

Mentioned in one of them, and which I really must watch again, is:

My favorite horror movie, the one that scared me the most was the original ALIEN film

Not a big fan of horror films, but have seen Halloween and quite a few Dracula films. I noticed some readers mentioned Alien and Predator. Seen both as well as Alien vs. Predator. Not sure if those would qualify actually as horror films. though.

I just saw Whisperer in Darkness, which I don't know if it counts but I thought that was awesome,


A lot of my favorites have been mentioned already (Halloween, Universal Horror, Hitchcock, the original Texas Chainsaw) so I'll skip those.
Nightmare on Elm Street 7
Cabin in The Woods
Conspiracy (2012)
You're Next and The Guest are more thrillers than horror but they were both excellent (you let me down Adam with Blaire Witch 2016, you let me down)

plus the classics that I previously mentioned.

I didn't know folk horror was a genre. Folklore-y, Like The VVitch? I'll be sure and Google it and give it a shot, during the next 31 days. Right up my alley.

I won't give a list because I think I've answered this question 3 or 4 times now. I LOVE horror movies.

The period adaptation of the Lovecraft story? If so, damn, I so want to see that (and the Call of Cthulhu adaptation from the same people). Or is there another adaptation of Whisperer floating around that I'm not aware of? And, yeah, i'd say it counts. If it follows the original story, it's heavy on s-f elements but also spooky as hell.

FYI, a new version of Lovecraft's The Colour Out of Space (previously filmed twice very loosely under other titles) debuted at Fantastic Film 2019 but I haven't found any reviews yet. io9 (geek news site)'s reviewers missed it when they were there.






*** SPOILER ALERT (for the original story) ***







I've often thought Whisperer (the original story), along with a couple other HPL pieces, is one of the seminal works of sf-horror. The monsters are pretty clearly alien rather than supernatural, a la Alien and Predator. And the whole "people abducted by aliens lurking in hill country" thing would probably have made a good X-Files episode if made today.
