Suggest Me A Horror Film

[Psycho Cat Industries]

Just don't go the zombie route.It can get so cheesy that you will laugh until you become one.

I thought the mist was funny too. Like when the girl gets stung in the face and it swells up haha

Just the whole ending was awesome. When he

shoots his kid and the others in the car, then the US army drives past with their tanks and everything is fine xD

I haven't laughed so hard since

yeah because terrible human tragedy is sooooo funny.

When in such a bad film, and with such awful acting yes it is so damn funny.

you are telling me that isn't funny as hell?

In context of the entire film? not at all. I think the Mist is very underrated. the ending didnt work for me until i watched it again. And the acting was fine. there were a lot of cool ideas in this movie and some really great moments.

You could always go classic with Night of the Living Dead.
'Twas my first R-rated movie, except for snippets of V for Vendetta.

I've heard good things about The Thing, too. Never got around to seeing it, though.

The Nightmare on Elm street, Scream, and the Shinning. Halloween is not scary at all.

Your other choices aren't scary either.

The movie "Audition" by Takashi Miike is really good. Nice and gory too.

There is only one good scene to me. I saw from that scene on and wanted the movie, when I got it I was so dispointed.

Noroi- though pretty long and kinda slow in a few places this film about a paranormal investigator done in the hand held style of Quarantine or Blair Witch Project has a few scenes that made me sleep with the lights on for a few days.

Reincarnation- Another Japanese film (I'm not sure about the Japanese name) This one is about a movie being made about a deranged scientist who goes on a killing spree at a hotel and the murders start happening again. The finally was really intense and scared the crap out of me.

[Rec][footnote]iMDB [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1038988/][/footnote]

That one was also very good, so much better than the remake: Quarantine.

While I haven't seen Rec, I have seen Quarantine and I loved it. Wasn't so much scary (excpet for the last bit in the attic) but it was really good and I had a laugh at it aswell.

When the camera man hits the zombie thing in the face with the camera and it feels like your butting it

The Shining and Blair Witch Project the most. Both have great stories and are extremely frightening.

While I do think the shining is an awesome film it isn't scary and the blair which project was the most boring film I have ever seen, all the way through it I was thinking "what the fuck is going on" and not in the way the film intended, more like why are you all running around like tools while screaming and crying?

On topic. Hub did a nice review of three Japanese horror films, the only problem is I can only remember one of the films ... oldboy, it's not so much a horror film as a "omg what are you doing!" kind of film.

As for scary films go, I am also on that quest all the big hitters are rather boring to me, you know Jason, Freddy, Micheal etc are tame by todays standards.

You could try "house of a thousand corpses" then it's follow up film "the devils rejects". Both films are from the twisted mind of Rob Zombie and they are quite in your face. An old film I haven't seen in years that I remember being quite good, Mimic.

Other ones deserving of a mention, "the house on hauted hill" series, "final destination" series, "Hannibal" series, scar, "was" (it's actually w delta s), "saw" series (I love it!), "childs play" series, "hills have eyes" series, "untraceable" and finally "broken".

Some are ok, some I love and 1 or 2 I don't like.

Jacob's Ladder. Silent Hill is mostly based off it,so...

 

[Ubermetalhed]

Alien, Drag me to Hell, Evil Dead, Event Horizon, Pandorum, Texas Chainsaw Massacre (original), 28 days later, Rosemary's Baby, Hellraiser 1+2, Audition, The Thing.

To be honest its all about personal taste so what scares one person may not scare another.

The ones I've listed are good films first and foremost but vary from scary to disturbing. Like I said it's personal taste.

 

[TheYellowCellPhone]

Go to the Mojang vs Bioware MM thread.

That's some terrifying stuff right there...

Scary? It's the funniest thing I've ever read, fanboys crying to each other over whose game is better.

And there's nearly 100 pages of it!

Horror is a very subjective thing. A lot depends on your mood, your likes and whether you prefer terror, revulsion or thinky.

I'd start with Friday the 13th, The Evil Dead, Psycho, A Nightmare on Elm Street, The Shining, Night of the Living Dead, Halloween, Dawn of the Dead, Alien, The Exorcist, The Wicker Man, The Thing, Carrie, Ringu, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Silence of the Lambs and An American Werewolf in London.

Usually, avoid the sequels like the plague. The two exceptions being Evil Dead and Alien.

Session 9 is real good. More of a psych thriller/horror, but it's good.

Agreed unequivocally. Excellent buildup of tension and atmosphere. It's a shame this kind of horror lost out in lieu of slasher flicks and gore porn.

Requiem for a Dream. It's not strictly a horror film, but it probably horrified me more than any other film I've ever seen. In fact I still can't bring myself to re-watch it. Seriously, I get as far as hearing the game show announcer saying, "You're a WINNER!" at the start and I just have to shake my head and say, "Nah, not just yet."

Seriously, Requiem for a Dream is a film everybody should watch once.

It starts with a junkie stealing his mum's telly to sell for smack and spirals downhill from there. Grim stuff.

 

[BlackHazard]

Antichrist very good and scary movie for me anyway.

 

[twaddle]

Justin Bieber: Never say Never.

HAAA! You have won 10 internetz good sir

easily the most depressing movie i have ever watched

 

[Viking Incognito]

Saw 1

 

[mikeli4194]

Try "Drag Me to Hell". It's my personal favorite horror movie, since it's both scary and hilarious.
Also, it's made by Sam Raimi, known for showing the world the awesomeness that is Bruce Campbell

 

[kickyourass]

28 Days Later
Alien
and the original Halloween.
That should keep you going for a bit.

 

[RobfromtheGulag]

Black Sheep.
Can't go wrong with a film about killer sheep.

Or The Signal. English Zombie horror with a comedic interlude.

Or Martyrs.
