Re: Favorite Horror Movies
 

Hello everybody. I figure this is as good a place as any to make my first post.

Here are a few of my favorite horror films that I haven't seen mentioned (although I didn't go through every post). They are not all categorized under 'horror' in many of the venues that house them, but they all terrified me to a certain degree.

Possession (1980)

Confessions (2010)

Noroi: The Curse (2005)

Funny Games (1997) *There is an American shot by shot remake by the same director that is basically pointless.

Alice (1988)

Irreversible (2002) *Also check out I Stand Alone (1998) by the same director.

Angst (1983)

Picnic At Hanging Rock (1975)

Welcome to the club. You have great taste! The only one of those I haven't seen is Confessions.

Louis Malle's Black Moon (1975)

Robert Altman's 3 Women (1977...and, by the way, my favorite film of all time. Should be of particular interest to Aickman fans).

Black Moon is pretty bizarre. Wish he did more films like that.

The Ninth Gate. There. I said it.

Despite all its flaws, I love that movie.

Re: Favorite Horror Movies
 

Yep, that movie is like comfort food. I can put it or Eyes Wide Shut on pretty much any time day or night and feel satisfied.

Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer

I can't seem to stop watching the golden era of Dario Argento (in my mind Deep Red to Opera) over and over.

I love to watch horror movies, I have been rabidly collecting horror and exploitation movies for many years now. I'm especially fond of horror from the 60s up to the 80s. Here is some of my all time favorite horror movies: (in no particular order)

Rosemary's Baby – 1968 Dir. Roman Polanski
The Tenant – 1976 Dir. Roman Polanski
The Ninth Gate – 1999 Dir. Roman Polanski (Yes, he's my favorite director along with Jess Franco)
A Virgin Among the Living Dead – 1973 Dir. Jess Franco
The Diabolical Dr. Z – 1966 Dir. Jess Franco
The Evil Dead - 1981 Dir. Sam Raimi
Dawn of the Dead – 1978 Dir. George A. Romero
The Beyond – 1981 Dir. Lucio Fulci
The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue _1974 Dir. Jorge Grau
Spider Baby, or The Maddest Story Ever Told – 1967 Dir. Jack Hill
The Thing – 1982 Dir. John Carpenter
Possession – 1981 Dir. Andrzej Zulawski
Don't Look Now – 1973 Dir. Nicolas Roeg
Invasion of the Body Snatchers – 1978 Dir. Philip Kaufman
The Exorcist – 1973 Dir.William Friedkin
The Exorcist III – 1990 Dir. William Peter Blatty
In The Mouth of Madness – 1994 Dir. John Carpenter
Let's Scare Jessica to Death – 1971 Dir. John D. Hancock
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre – 1974 Dir. Tobe Hooper

Ok, I have to stop here I think, before this list just goes on and on. Too many to mention.

I can't think of a better horror trilogy than his Apartment set of films. Argento's Three Mothers trilogy would have come close, but the final part seemed like a rushed and careless piece of work.
