And if I've even seen the movie, it would have been on a "late show" or "late late show" decades ago. I put it in my Netflix queue though so I can see it (again?) soon.

Scott Miller Wrote:Going foreign with three movies: The Eye, the original from Hong Kong, Cronos from Mexico and Audition from Japan.
And while it isn't scary, Evil Dead II must get at least a mention in a thread about great horror movies.
APhew Wrote:Loved Marshall's Descent as well as Dog Soldiers.
PicardRex Wrote:Prince of Darkness rocks, of course pretty much anything JC is good, especially if it was in the 80s.
Some of those 70s and 80s Italian horror movies are great, Demons, Argento's 3 mothers trilogy, even though the last one is relatively new, Phenomena.
Stuart Gordon makes a pretty good film as well, Dolls, Reanimator, From Beyond, good stuff.
Fav zombie movie, is a toss up between the 90s remake of Night, which was done by Savini the special effects guy for Dawn and Day, and the original Dawn is great. Take Romero out of the zombie world though and he isn't too great, his last couple of zombie entries weren't that great either.

RootsReggae Wrote:Peter Straub's Ghost Story is the scariest book I ever read. Beware that the movie does it no justice, and is not scary. The book is excellent though.
