Favorite Horror Movie?

[Unresolvedhorrors]

Gonna break my cherry on the forum here and post a question about one of my favorite things in the world, movies. Its October, meaning that there are a 1001 scary films being played on the tele, the big screen, and for sale at the store. What are some Litsters favorite horror or Halloween-related movies. Dying to know (inserting Crypt Keepers laugh here)

Those are all very good. I remember being scared senseless by The Fog as well. I snuck out of bed late at night to watch the late night scary movies on Friday and Saturday nights as a child. I was about six when I watched my first episode of Svengoolie and got hooked.

One of the more recent ones I happened to catch, thanks to a suggestion from a friend was Murderock. It's probably not everyone's cup of tea but I couldn't resist. Any chance to see a horror musical and I have got to take it. I heard that there was a copy with director's commentary on it and I have been passively searching for it. Would love to hear what Lucio Fulci had to say about his creation.

Ive never heard of Murderock sorry,,not sure if it counts as a horror musical but im a huge fan of rocky horror picture show, i was hooked first time i saw it

 

[Unresolvedhorrors]

I am such an addict to Rocky Horror. When I was in college, I would go down to Hillsborough Street in Raleigh every Friday night and ham it up. Love it, love it love it.

Shawn of the Dead was hilariously funny and I loved that too.

Totally agree evil dead and texas ,sometimes the original are best,not heard of army darkness

 

[Unresolvedhorrors]

Army of Darkness is the 3 film in the Evil Dead series. It definitely needs to be watched and experienced. I highly suggest it.

Night of the Hunter (1955) Robert Mitchum

 

[seeshelly]

Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party

Hillary's America: The Secret History of the Democratic Party

This motion picture exposes the real-life horror that has been developing in the United States for many years. Very well researched and a must watch movie for anyone that loves and understands history. It is highly documented and irrefutable.

 

[guyloveshotstories]

Night of the Hunter (1955) Robert Mitchum

Aliens by James Cameron.

 

[rae121452]

Night of the Hunter (1955) Robert Mitchum

i'm old enough that i saw that not long after it came out while i was still a child. gave me nightmares for months, especially the underwater scene of shelley winters with her hair waving in the currents. that movie is like one long bad dream that you can't wake up from.

 

[rae121452]

and two more obscure films:

dust devil by one of the atenborough's, i think and a film called paper house for psychological terror. the first one is african, the second is (i think) new zealand.
