Horror fan checklist......

Started by Dario Argento3 pages

The list needs:

Some Mario Bava movies

Deep Red

Some Asian Horror (There are some really great ones ED)

Dreyer's "vampyr" (maybe the most beautiful horror flick ever)

Paul Morrisey's "Blood for Dracula" and "Flesh for Frankenstein"

The Birds

Dead & Buried

and of caurse the greatest werewolf flick ever "The Company of Wolves"

Have you seen Card Player yet? Deep Red is a great addition.

no I haven't, but I really want to.

I disagree there neeing to be some Asain horror

Eh, it was basically an Asian "The Sixth Sense". Nice gimmick with the "eyeball transplant", but fat Asian kid running around asking about a report card isn't my idea of Horror. No tension.

Asians, frankly, should just stick to Wuxia. It's the one thing us yanks can't top.

That and your national sport of being so far up your own asses you cant see a damn thing.

Actually I think Takashi Miike is one of the most interesting directors right now.

I saw the trailer for his new movie "3 Monster" and looks mind-blowing.

no

I prefer it over Sixth Sense anyday. Only thing in common is seeing dead people, totally different films after that.

Everyone I have heard who dislikes the film always says it's an Asian Sixth Sense, so strange...

DArio- I haven't seen it either, but can't wait. Just waiting for Bay to release it in England.

Sleepaway Camp 2 was a great horror spoof. 😄

I remembered another flick that i forgot. One that needs to be viewed by all horror fans. Flatliners, This movie is original in every sense of the word. It is also the only, or atleast best of it's kind. It is a Horror movie that has no monsters, has no killers, It has no tangible force preying on people. the monster in this movie is our own humanity and sins. I think it was done in a brilliant way that left me touched by a cold hand of self awarness. The interaction of sin between the character's in the movie are done using fantasy and perception, yet leaves an eerily, vivid realness to it.

oh yes..........

I love me some Flatliners......

yeah, any flick with both keifer sutherland and kevin bacon in it is bound to be a winner on some level.

does anyone no the title to this movie

it's about a woman that gives birth in her friend house while she's squeezing a blanket around her wrist. the woman leaves the child and the blanket at her friends house and he kills thier infant. when he gets a little older no more than 6 he starts to kill thier other children one by drowning the last by throwing her out the window. the father tries to strangle the child but is caught and the child says mommy daddy is trying to strangle me it ends with the two women reunited and her friend has another baby the husband tries to run after his wife but fails

Phantasm is a must-see for any horror fan, IMO. It greatly upsets me when a self proclaimed "horror buff" has not seen this classic movie.
