Horror films

[karenk]

One that springs to mind for me was called Trilogy of Terror, in particular where an African fetish doll comes alive after its chain comes undone. It's many, many years since I saw it and still gives me a shiver.

Chakushin Ari (One missed call) certainly gives me the shivers! http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0366292/

[Captain Scarlet]

Ive seen it too...great film! very scary.

If it ain't Hammer I'm terrified and out

[Peckhamgatecrasher]

You're so right, Tarot. Jason and the Argonauts terrified me when the skeletons jumped up.

Severance just about to start on bbc1

[HAL9000]

It features a beheading, doesn't it? Damn, I missed it! :)

[Captain Scarlet]

Frailty is a good thriller /horror film

also ravenous...good cannibal film

[BrandNewGuy]

"Wolfen" - creepy shape-shifting chiller set in New York...

"Re-Animator" and "From Beyond" - two tongue-in-cheek but scary Lovecraft tales.

[mockney piers]

Oh yes, "from beyond".

I'm still convinced we all have a third eye on a stalk in our foreheads, just waiting to be set free!!!

Not a horror film, but if people like lovecraft, then Call of Cthulhu is a great game on PC and consoles, non gaming horror fans might consider it too, as it's scarier than most films are these days.

Maybe it's something about the immersive nature of gaming, but the good examples definitely creep you out or make you jump more than films do.

See also Fear, Dead Space...list goes on....

Arachnophobia gives me the creeps, keep seeing spiders all over the place after watching that film!

[Captain Scarlet]

Hellraiser films...very gory,very kinky and good for a lauth!

[mockney piers]

Just remembered 'dead birds' a little known minor horror classic.

A dark western of violent robbers getting their comeuppance. Does nothing original, very much a don't-go-into-the-cellar staple, but it is genuinely scary.

[Ms_Lilith]

Sounds good Mockney Piers,

Just ordered it from amazon sounds like it is worth seeing :)

[GreatScott]

Alien, everything about it, even the tagline "In space no one can hear you scream."

[Tarot]

Aliens versus Predator was good too,but didnt like the last one.

[Captain Scarlet]

Predators the latest one was good..awesome in fact!

[Tarot]

Whats the new film called Captain Scarlet, and whose in it?

[Ms_Lilith]

I have always found this film to be one of the scariest movies ever made..... ;-) beware of Cliff!

 

[DJKillaQueen]

Ha Ha Ha...just fell off my chair with laughter..............lol.....and couldn't agree more!

[Ms_Lilith]

;-)

The Candyman brings back memories. Ha. They don't make good scary movies like that anymore.

Carry was also one of my faves along with The Omen Trilogy (although 1 & 2 were much better than the last one. But I needed to finish the series).

[Ms_Lilith]

Tony Todd who played the Candyman is in Final Destination 5, which should be released this year, hopefully he will add an edge to the next one.

The origional cyberrobot in The Avengers,was scary years ago.

I watched Eraserhead the other night, not intentionally I just woke up at 3am and decided to watch a film and it was on the Horror Channel. By far the weirdest and most surreal film I've ever seen...Alien baby, dancing girls in radiators, pencil rubbers...However, I appreciate the storyline was more about the main character's state of mind as opposed to what was actually being acted out. The film actually left me feeling a little depressed!
