Peter Wrote:Oh (Yeah me again) while I think of it, someone mentioned The Blue Angel as best horror film. Well, yes it is truly scary but the only film that has ever really had a horrific impression on me is the original black and white The Haunting. Anyone seen it? If not do try. Forget your splatter flicks, few SFX and no gore at all, but the scene when the two women (Claire Bloom and ?) have been holding hands cos they are so scared and then realise how far apart their beds are, now THAT made an impression on me!
But have you seen THE SHINING in 30 seconds re-enacted by bunnies?

That may be more exposition of the plot than was actually in the original Kubrick movie.
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. ... The piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age.

As an antique hombre and broken-down bluesman, I gotta say that Ray Davies is among the greatest songwriters who ever sat down with a guitar and pen. SHANGRI-LA... WATERLOO SUNSET... RAINY DAY IN JUNE... BETTER THINGS... DESTROYER... THIS TIME TOMORROW... CELLULOID HEROES... YOU REALLY GOT ME... SUNNY AFTERNOON... GOD'S CHILDREN... BIG SKY... (OK, OK, I'll stop. And Dave Davies is no slouch himself!)

Bluesman Mike here--I didn't mean THE BLUE ANGEL was the =best= horror film ever made (I'd go with THE EXORCIST on that question)--just that the slow destruction of Professor Unrat's personality leaves (most) physical horror in the dust.
