+1 to An American Werewolf in London 1981. I was scared as hell when i was watching is as a kid. It was a very good movie.

i dont think this movie is that scary. its only nice in the movies bcause of the big screen and sound effects. not so scary or spooky when u watch it alone at home.

Anyone has seen The Shining (1980) ?

haizzz new horror movies FAIL big time recently ... hard to get something like shutter or the eye kind of frights alr .... i guess director should start investing money to produce 3D horror movies ! maybe then i will be satisfied ...

i really not appeal to these 3D movie stuff. For me it just a gimmick. I never care about picture quality as long as it watchable even on SD. That's why i like most of B-horror movie from 60's - 80's because the story and horror is so interesting.

how about other japanese horror movie ? Ju on , the ring, and other korean as well ?

I had watched majority of the listed films

The Blob for both the old 1958s version and the 1988s version

The Stuff, wish i watched it but can't "find" it

I have watched both Puppet Masters (ala Body Snatchers version with Donald Sutherland) and majority of the "original" Puppet Masters sequels

I have watched the original Village of the Damned (1960s version) and the 1995s remake with Christopher Reeve

I have watched the 1978s version of the Body Snatchers, ironically never watched the original version but did watched the 2007s remake.

Perhaps you want some interesting films...such as... "Cannibal Holocaust: Cannibals vs Commandos"

I find it hilarious to see japanense tribesmen eatting american commandos

I would also recommend to everyone to watch the 1983's Sleepaway Camp (not the remake, although the original actress is in the remake i believe)

Hey Mov Freak... How ya doing. Havent seen ya around in the HT section...

didnt understand your review.. was it good or not?

My GF seems to be a little sadistic and like to watch horror movies. Anything good on Blu Ray? (need to push the speakers you got me...)

My bad, i thought you meant something else, forget about what i mentioned earlier. I think i would preffer the old classics (i meant the 70s/80s classics, not the 40s-60s) than the modern current horror films. The modern horror films relied too much either to CG effects or have too much gore to compensate the horror and to cater the gore hounds. They don't make good old horror films like they used to, where they relied special effects (rather than CG) and not overused the gore, but it doesn't mean that there isn't any good horror films in the current modern times. Take Paranormal Activity, it's simple but terrifying and don't take up much of budget, effects or even CG.

That's my take, i hope that's what you meant of what i think about them.

I did watched Attack of the Killer Tomatoes...it was the most ridiculous movie i have ever seen, i rented a VHS video of it and even watched the animation version for it too. Fun to watch, if you're willing to just accept that tomatoes can really kill people.

Yes, i do have a copy of Needful things, it's a bit draggy but it gets quite interesting once the characters have set in. I say, the movie is pretty good but the movie didn't deliver what Stephen King wrote in the book. In the book, there were utter chaos, deaths, it may even looked that the town were hit by an amarggeddon. But the end of the movie, it didn't deliver as much chaos or deaths as depicted in the book. I say, yes, i would recommend people to watch this. Leland Gaunt in the movie, showed as a very, charismatic person, smooth talking and manipulative "salesman" (like the devil).

Last year, i managed to watch the original Last House from the Left and then the recent release remake. The original film involved more rape compared to the remake. As far as the revenge goes, i preffered the old one better.

I also managed to "obtain" the original 1973's Crazies, haven't had the time to watch it yet. But i did manage to watch the remake.

I gotta agree with you on this, i'm not a big fan with jap horror. After the Ring and Ju On, i think i remembered that there's half of the jap/korean horror films involved with some female ghost, with long hair covering their faces and wearing some white dress. Not sure why everyone's so into these kinda horror films (probably the hype after the Ring/Ju On films) but everyone's picking up the pace like Thai's Shutter, or even our Malaysian made films that involves these kinda ghosts. Kinda tiring to see these "ghosts".

The 1988 remake of The Blob freaked me out.
It squeeze itself in and out of everything everywhere.


Did not watch Donald Sutherland's Puppet Monster.
But the one with puppets is not a good movie.
Speaking of Donald Sutherland, should try Don't Look Now.

Only watched the 1978 version of the Body Snatcher.
It started off slow but it is very good once the body snatchers started to take over the town.
And the ending.....ARRRGGGGHHHHH!

Yup, Puppetmaster series (not Donald Sutherland's) are not really that great, some of the sequels from 1 - 3 were average at best. But its what Full Moon productions made such cult films. I like the cheesiness of the entire series. Blade's one of my favorite characters, wish i bought the action figures for them.

I also am curious of wanting to "obtain" the 2001 released, called Slashers. Its canadian produced movie and the sypnosis is about a japanese's number 1 reality tv show called, well, "Slashers", having the contestents go through arena (or something) and avoid getting killed by the "Slashers", and try to make it to the end to win millions of dollars cash prize. A direct attempt to make a parody regarding japanese reality tv shows contests.

Also, IMBD gave a 5.4 out of 10, an average and not be taken too seriously, considering the absurdity of the story line itself.

I also will be needing to "obtain" the 1977's Shock Wave. Never had the chance to watch it and its difficult to "obtain" it. Nazi undead underwater super soldiers, its quite an interesting premise.

And finally, 1974's Black Christmas, i haven't had the chance to watch this either. Killer's first person perspective is interesting

Yup, that's Battle Royale alright. I never liked the sequel, somehow, the feel of the movie for Battle Royale in the sequel isn't there like in the first film...actually, not too sure why they need a sequel for this film since the novel already ended just like in the first film. I read the manga, way too much porno.

Speaking of "animals" based horror, sorta, i like the 1990's Arahnophobia, starring Jeff Daniels, it's pretty good movie (IMBD gave it 6.2 out of 10). My first viewing, ironically, was in RTM Tv, then my second viewing was in Astro. I wish i gotten my hands on a DVD on this movie.

Also, if you like dogs, never forget the 1983's Stephen King's Cujo and 1993's Man's Best Friend.

I need to watch the 1990's Misery, starring Kathy Bates. I seen the trailers and a bit of talk from some top 100 horror movies in youtube, and i'm pretty interested to watch this. One of Kathy Bates' great films about obssessive fan trapping her favorite romance novel writer in her home. Pretty gripping stuff

Pet Semetary is a bit 'meh' for me though.

IT starts strong and ends 'meh' in my most recent watch.
The Stand starts strong and ends 'ok' in my vague memory.
Carrie is amazing everytime I watch.
Salem's Lot is scary when I was young.
The Green Mile is brilliant but not a horror film.
The Shining is OMG-Stanley-Kubrickingly good.
Misery is OMG....
I think I'll become more annoying if I keep going on....

^ The Shining is good. Dreamcatcher stinks. The Mist is mediocre.
