Ur favorite HORROR films?

Being the time of the month,ive decided to make this thread. Im a movie lover,especially when it comes to horror.What are sum films that scared u so bad when u were a kid or still do to this day? These scared me- Nightmare on elm street,Phantasm,Halloween,and Silent night deadly night. Another film that gave me nightmares,although not a horror film,is the movie TOMMY about the deaf and blind boy being tortured. That was a sick and stupid movie.

To me, there is a difference between HORROR and SLASHER.
I get so annoyed at movies where they think that "scary" is some psycho cutting people up.
I like movies that "F" with your mind, so you sit there like when they're over.
"The Omen" still freaks me out, and I'm not sure why.

But seriously....

Trilogy of Terror

Tourist Trap

Trick or Treat (1986)

Any of the early Friday the 13th, or Nightmare on Elm Street movies. After 3 parts, they all got stupid, although 4 and 5 of Nightmare is watchable.

To me, Fatal Attraction is a true horror movie. The suspense is awesome in that movie. A lot of people would call it a psycho thriller, but whatever.

I love The Omen, and The Omen 3. Cujo, Carrie, Rosemary's Baby, It's Alive, The Exorcist. All great horror movies.

The latest version of "horror films" (SAW, etc.) do not scare me. Films where people are constantly being tortured alive do nothing for me. That also includes those films where the people are stranded and some random stranger picks them up and then the terror begins...BLAH

I do like the slasher films, especially the earlier ones. I agree with those above about the haunting and demon possession films. Those are the best and most scariest because alot of the stories are true and haunting and demon possession are real. After watching the rerelease of the Exorcist a few years ago, I had to sleep with my hallway light on for a week!

let's see...

Veneno Para Las Hadas
Dark Tales From Tokyo
The Strangers
Wait Until Dark
The Cell
The Orphanage
The Devil's Backbone

Fuck the funk - it's time to ditch the worn-out Vegas horns fills, pick up the geee-tar and finally ROCK THE MUTHA-FUCKER!! He hinted at this on Chaos, now it's time to step up and fully DELIVER!!

An absolutely amazing film with fantastic special effects...I hope they never remake it with CGI

The original..not the remake...



And even though I don't like all the slasher crap...I do love this movie! I have all the sequels too, even though they weren't as good.

Amityville Horror
Nightmare on Elm Street

Both are based on true stories!!

I actually dig Hannibal as well as a true horror film. I was never a Silence of the Lambs fan per se. But I really liked Hannibal and Red Dragon. (For a grittier version of the Red Dragon story, find Manhunter from 1986 with Brian Cox as Hannibal Lecter.)

The Serpent and the Rainbow is a good horror film. We watched it a lot in the Navy right after it came out.

My all time favorite is to watch "The Exorcist" around Halloween time, and "The Shining", but not because they were scary, I like the Exorcist because it's just so evil. I like watching "The Shining" because it's just so hilarious. Other than that, prefer watching some older, independent released horror films since they were much more graphic and scarier than these pathetic mainstream horror films that Hollywood has been releasing in recent years.

Salem's Lot

One of the all-time scariest horror films that I've ever seen, ranked it right behind The Exorcist & Poltergeist
