Horror Film Debate Thread!

I like to talk about horror movies so I started this thread.I have seen most of the great horror films so i thought what we could do with this thread is leave what you think is the best horror movie of all time and people can discuss it.If you think there is a better one,then post it.I will start it off with what i think is the scariest movie that I've seen:

Psycho(the original)

It was released in 1960 but I think it stands still today as a definition of what a great horror movie is supposed to feel like.

meh.......

there's too many different sub-genres to horror for me to pick a favorite.........I'd have to pick a favorite monster, paranormal, psychological, zombie, slasher, etc. etc.

I'll just go ahead and agree with Psycho............it has stood the test of time. It truely is a great film.

sure it does. I watched it again last week as a matter of fact. I still enjoyed it as much as I did the first time I watched it.

There's no better testament to a film standing the test of time than it being entertaining and enjoyable over 40 years after it's release.

When I say it dosent stand the test of time, I'm saying it dosent have the same effect it did back in the 60's. But it's still a decent film.

I suppose it doesn't have the same effect today.Great horror though.I just wish I hadn't known that Norman was the killer before I watched it.Kinda took away the effect.Okay,let's go to another classic.The Evil Dead.I've watched it 20 times and I can't get sick of it.

Evil Dead is pure/true horror. It's campy at times.......it lacks in plot and acting.....but still a good piece of pure horror. I love it.

Yeah i couldnt pick a single movie to be the BEST horror movie. That is damn difficult. there are to many branches in the horror realm. the best i could do is give a facorite, and even then it is difficult. I suppose Hellraiser, and suspiria are probably some of my favorite stories at the momment. Hellraiser is one of the most original horror fllicks out there. Suspiria is just an all around solid movie. I dont know i cant really think right now,insomnia has me by the balls.

"Psycho" was boring as hell, and didn't keep me "interested" in the least. How anyone can say it stands the test of time baffles me, personally. Easily Hitchcock's most overrated film.
