Babycat Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I'm a fan, but I like the cheesy ones too.YOu're insANE! You know it! http://i.imgur.com/BNTOieW.gifFreddy can ROCK! :haz: I don't remember that particular scene - where was that? It's from the TV show. It was an anthology series and Freddy was like the host. Darn it - you're right! There was a TV show! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

savagegrace26 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I saw Martyrs recently, and must admit it's one of the most impressive horror movies I've ever seen. Very graphic, original storyline, full of twists, and a jaw-dropping ending. It's almost "intellectual" horror. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I saw Martyrs recently, and must admit it's one of the most impressive horror movies I've ever seen. Very graphic, original storyline, full of twists, and a jaw-dropping ending. It's almost "intellectual" horror. It's part of the new "French extremity" genre. I can also recommend "Inside", which is nerve-wrecking as well. I watched it two weeks ago and still have vivid memories of it. Had to fast forward a bunch of times.

x1yyz Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I do like horror movies, although I don't watch them very often since the hubby doesn't like them. I don't really care for the slasher films though; I find they use blood as a substitute for a good plot. What I love are the head f*ck scary movies. Some of my faves are Hellraiser, Phantasm (a bit cheesy, but fun!), Silence of the Lambs, Se7en, uh, and probably more that I just can't think of right now.

x1yyz Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 The grossest movie I've ever seen is Peter Jackson's Dead Alive. Mind you, I am someone who can eat while watching surgery on TV, and one of my previous jobs included disassembling dead animals (for a museum) so I am not squeamish. But Dead Alive had the honour of being the only movie that has made me feel a bit queasy. Imagine my surprise when I heard Jackson was going to direct the Lord of the Rings movies—I didn't know what to expect! I haven't seen Dead Alive for over 20 years. Maybe I should watch it again. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod in Toronto Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 I watched Dead Alive at a movie theater which has now turned into a department store, way back in 1993. I knew it as "Braindead". I leave you with the trailer of Inside: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
savagegrace26 Posted September 24, 2014 Share Posted September 24, 2014 Splice is interesting and disturbing in an almost comedic way. I consider it more black comedy than actual horror, although I was never quite sure if that was intentional or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PolarizeMe Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 I like my share of horrors from time to time, such as The Shining and The Birds but I wouldn't say that I'm hugely into the genre. Never thought of Eraserhead as a horror film but I can definitely see some aspects of the genre in it (surrealist horror maybe?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never thought of Eraserhead as a horror film but I can definitely see some aspects of the genre in it (surrealist horror maybe?) Oh yeah, how could I forget The Shining?! A classic. I only saw The Birds once, as a child. (What were my parents thinking, letting me watch that as a 7 or 8 year old?) I was so scared for weeks or months afterward. They also had let me watch The H Man about the same time. In retrospect it was a bad B-movie, but to a child it was scary! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circumstantial tree Posted September 25, 2014 Share Posted September 25, 2014 Ending to the original Friday the 13th. It shows that a boy scout camp in New Jersey can be a frightful place to be. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circumstantial tree Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 No, unless they did something else in the remake. The creators said they "stole" from Carrie for the ending. When Brian DePalma did Carrie, he "stole" his ending from "Deliverance". 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

circumstantial tree Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 In the film, the surviving character, Sue Snell, dreams that she visits Carrie's grave and when she kneels down with flowers, Carrie's hand comes up and grabs her in a surprise twist. This doesn't happen in the novel. Can't remember how she dies in the novel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treeduck Posted September 26, 2014 Share Posted September 26, 2014 And Deliverance? What happens at the end of Deliverance? Burt Reynolds ends up in hospital with a broken leg, Ronny Cox drowned and Jon Voight and Ned Beatty go home? How is that anything like Carrie?
