Alright I'll be watching those.

And I'll be watching the original Vanishing, along with Eyes Without a Face and New Nightmare. I'm gonna try to pick up The Howling.

I haven't seen much of the Friday the Thirteenth franchise, does anyone actually recommend me seeing them?

Wolfie
You haven't seen all those, Solo?

Since you're going with Halloween 1 and 2, I'd go with 4 also.

SelphieT
If you're going for Friday the 13th, go for 1, 2, and 3. I haven't seem a lot of those movies, but I guess those first three are the better.

SelphieT
Just incase you didn't know, Rocky Horror Picture Show isn't a horror movie................................

but its good nonetheless smile

deathbycorn
Bram Stoker's Dracula
Bubba Ho-Tep
Candyman
Dead Mans Shoes
From Dusk Till Dawn
Identity
In The Mouth of Madness
Island of the Damned
Red Dragon
Session 9
Severance
Shaun of the Dead
Silent Hill
Undead

sapphiremouse
Ya...Near Dark has some good scenes.
Definetly yes on the Friday 13th ( 1-3 ) after that it gets old and cheesey.
Add The Original Amityville Horror (1979) but if you can find Amityville 2(1982) also....watch the 2nd one first then the 1st movie.
Salem's Lot original is a spooky film without using alot of blood, more suspenseful. ( watch during a thunderstorm) smile (vampires)
The Devil's Rejects
Interview with a Vampire
Exorcist

StinkFist462
High Tension

BackFire
Dog Soldiers, May, Return of the Living Dead, Audition, Killer Klowns, Zombie, Henry, In the Mouth of Madness, Vampires, Candyman, Satan's Little Helper, and Child's Play should also be in there if you haven't seen them.

papabeard
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The Thing
The Hills Have Eyes
The Omen
Silver Bullet

John Carpenter's - The Thing

One of my all time favorites smile

Graveyard Shift
Solo, try watching IT. I've never seen it myself, but whenever someone asks what people think is the most disturbing movie they've ever seen, it usually comes up.

I'd also say to watch Saw, Child's Play 1 & 2, and The Omen trilogy along with the other's members choices. I'd skip the cheesy 80's slashers unless you don't really want a imaginative scare.

Those are HARDCORE horror movies. You have to make your selection based on what you want to get out of your viewings.

Omen-4
Halloween -6 awsome movie

.................................

make these TOP priority. most horror fans on here would say the same i think.

Halloween 1 and 2: brilliant horror movie. watch the 2nd one also as it carrys on right after the end of the first.

Evil Dead - damn classic, you have to see this. no excuses

The Thing - One of my all time fav's, CLASSIC.

Night of the living dead - this is where the flesh eating began, terrific movie, the remake is very good too.

Dawn of the dead - screw the remake, watch this. superb entertainment, if you wont like this then id suggest giving up on horror. the music score is one of the main highlights. Check out day of the dead to complete the trilogy. it is also excellent.

Alien - scary and claustrophobic, can you say classic? if slow paced filsm are not to your liking then you might not enjoy this as much as the sequel:

Aliens: bigger budget, more action. surpasses the original in many ways.

Phantasm very creepy movie. great music score. unique. they dont make em like this anymore.CLASSIC

american werewolf in london cant remember you saying thay u have seen this solo. best werewolf movie ever in my opinion. mixes scares with humour and will not fail to entertain. CLASSIC

braindead aka dead alive goriest movie ever? probably. very funny movie from peter jackson. not very scary but its a must see.

demons what can be more entertaining then watching a bunch of people fighting a bunch of demons in a cinema complex? not much i tell you. what fun this movie is.

exorcist i dont need to say much about this.

hellraiser scary movie, terrifying monster. it will tear your soul apart for sure! classic. warning though..slow paced. the sequel moves along faster.

zombie flesh eaters great zombie movie by the master of gore, lucio fulci! love the music score. classic.

jacobs ladder psychological horror at its best. this will creep you out.

dead and buried do not go to potters bluff! cult classic. must watch.

the fog john carpenter(halloween) brings another classic horror. great atmosphere, spooky film overall.

the omen slow paced movie, but very creepy and an all time classic.

lost boys most entertaining vampire flick around.

interview with the vampire excellent excellent movie.

near dark underated vampire movie. probably one of the best ever.

they live not strictly horror but still fantastic viewing pleasure! you will sail through this movie and love every minute.

candyman a rare good movie from the 90's. classic

tenebre if you want to watch great horror/thrillers then you must check out dario argento's movies. tenerbre is one of my favourites of his.

creepshow 5 tales of terror! directed by george romero(dawn of the dead) great fun to watch.

cannibal apocalypse we need a cannibal movie in here. i reccomend this one.

the brood a david cronenberg movie is needed also. this is one of his best.
.......................

anyways i hope that helped you. you should enjoy the ones i pickd for you. obviously there are many more to see but the ones i mentioned should be good enough to start off on

I'll make sure I finish the entire list. I hold your recommendations to high regard, and I'll make sure I see those you mentioned, that I haven't seen, first. A few of the classics you recommended I have seen i.e.

But the rest I have not. I'll make sure to keep an open mind, and to view the ones you recommend first.

About "Underworld" though, I've own "Underworld"
for some reason and never got around to seeing it. But "Stay Alive", it's obviously not a top priority, but Adam Goldberg is in it, and he's great.

Zilverz
how could you all suggest F13th 1-3 and leave off the final chapter 4 ? 4 is the best in the franchise

BackFire
Dude, that's a lot of movies to try and watch in a month. You better get started, like now.

vintageSW77

Never see many raving bout them.

thegreatrudini
nightbreed is 1 of my fave films the original book (cabal) is very good

vintageSW77
Yeah its good but it should have been a mini series i reckon

Solo
Well, I'm a huge MacLachlan fan so, naturally, I own "The Hidden". Anyway, I'm about halfway through the marathon. I've had a few additions too.
