To be completely honest I know it's a terrible movie but I like it in a B-movie kinda way.

Favorite horror/thriller movies:

The Thing (Carpenter's)
Nosferatu (Herzog's)
Event Horizon
Saw
House of Usher and several other Poe filmations
the first segment of Black Sabbath
Häxan
Braindead
Evil Dead trilogy
Rear Window
Duel
American Psycho
Jaws
Jacob's Ladder
They Live
Wicker Man


I also like Japanese horror, though they're not the best movies, they sure are the creepiest. Ringu and Grudge movies changed my life forever.

I love horror movies. I think my favourites (in no particular order) are:

- John Carpenter's The Fog (the original)...it scared the crap out of me!
- Halloween 1, 2, & H2O
- Nightmare on Elm Street 1 & 3
- Saw
- Friday the 13th the original & the reboot
- Malevolence
- Hellraiser
- The Ring
- The Texas Chainsaw Masacre (the original)
- The Shining
- The Exorcist

Both these figure look awesome. Part 2 has my favorite Freddy makeup out of all the films. It's also good that that figure comes with both the blade hand, as well as the glove, as that would be my definative F.reddy

For me I prefer the first movie look for Freddy. Part 2 was horrible so I just can't get into anything related to it. lol.





Chest of souls Freddy! This thing looks NASTY! I can't wait for these!

^^I thought so. You know Dream Master gets a lot of crap from people I talk to but to be honest I think it's one of my faves in the franchise. Even if ridiculously goofy at times. Freddy eating screaming meatballs still trips me out.

Any fans of Re-Animator? hilarious, gory and sleazy Sci-fi horror comedy cult classic that has been one of my faves since i was 15, Jeffery Combs steals the show as Herbert West.

Yes, probably the best movie based on Lovecraft's work. Others that I enjoy are The Resurrected, Die Monster Die!, Necronomicon, and From Beyond. I also liked Cthulhu (2007).

Yeah, put me down for John Carpenter's The Thing* as well.

Others I enjoy:
Romero's Night of the Living Dead / Dawn of the Dead / Day of the Dead
Pontypool (zombie-type, "Shut Up or Die")
The Return of the Living Dead (1985)
Shaun of the Dead
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (197
Alien / Aliens
Jaws
The Descent
The Mist
The Ruins
Otis (dark humor)
30 Days of Night (very Thing-formula, but brutal)


* I'm less on board for the Thing prequel that's being made that apparently shows what happened at the Norweigian research site-- only requires a hint of imagination to piece that together while watching the original.

Its awesome. I love how

Spoiler:
In the end, Darabont makes a more 'Stephen King' ending than what the original story has. (In the book, its kind of an open ending, if I recall, where they are left wondering across America...


I watched a pretty decent horror flick coupla nights ago: Orphan. I enjoyed it, freaky little b*tch!

Yeah. The book was great but I love the ending of the movie.

And The Orphan. Yes! I saw this a few nights ago and was creeped out by the theme of the film. One of the better recent horror films. I must say.

The first one is genuinely creepy. Especially during the "dinner" scene at the end.

The second one is cheesy 80's horror fun.

The remake was watchable because of R Lee Ermey and Jessica Biel being smoking hot.

A ton of Freddy figures, but what about the Dream Warriors? No gymnastics action Kristen action figure?
