Your Favorite Halloween Movies

[piratebg]

With Halloween just around the corner, I'd thought I'd see what are some of your favorite scary movies. This time of year, I just can't help but to break out my DVDs and watch all of my horror movies.

Oh man..we have over 500 horror movies, so we LOVE them

Romero Triliogy LOTD not as much, but still good to watch

Hellraisers

Night Breed( not a real horror, but has alot of the same qualities)

Any Asian Horror movie..just love the atmosphere in them

though cheesy I like Dracula 2000 and John Carpenters Vampires

of course the Friday the 13ths, Freddies, and Halloween series

Poltergiest one and two

Basket Case

and so many more

[piratebg]

I have all of the Hellraisers, the Romero Dead Series and their remakes, the Nightmare series, and the Poltergeist series. I love horror, especially 80s horror.

My favorite t-shirt in high school was t-shirt that had several ofmy heroes on it: Freddy, Jason, Michael, Pinhead, and Chucky.

I love the original Haloween, not the crap that came out a month ago but the original. Part II was good too as it just continued one. With the exeption of a few of them part 3, part 6 I like the Haloween movies alot.

I'd have to agree. Parts 1, 2, 4, and 5 are pretty good together. H2O was ok, but the rest just flat out suck. I haven't seen the remake yet.

:foul: Hollyweird's all out of ideas I guess...

[piratebg]

You know, there aren't that many good werewolf movies around. I love An American Werewolf In London, The Howling, and Dog Soldiers, but that's about it. Every other werewolf movie I've ever seen just sucks.

[Maroon87]

The Lost Boys! :thumbsup:

[piratebg]

2001 Maniacs......good, gory fun. :thumbsup:

Dog soildiers..one of the best all around horror movies IMO

I like Underworld 1 and 2 for the Vampire/Werewolf battles

The Underworld movies are fun, but the part that most interested me was the back story. They show some of it in flashbacks, as well as the opening of the second movie. I read that a third one might be on the way and that it would be a prequel that would focus on the beginning of everything.

I have to agree! I have the ringtone on my phone right now and have my 6 year old hooked on the movie. We love Michael at my house- except for my husband (he hates scary movies).
I tend to go for the old ones.
Children of the Corn was good- I love Malikai (sp?).........

[DUKE22]

The Original Texas Chainsaw Massacre, scared the living crap out of me. You know the old one that looks like a snuff flim or something. I also liked Children of the Corn and some of you might remember a movie from the 80's called Witchboard, that was cool.

For as bad as the Children of the Corn movies are, I still find myself watching them(original and the sequels) and finding ways to enjoy them. I really can't explain it. I can't help but think eventually there will be a remake of this movie soon.

[RedWhiteBlue]

OOOOOOOOOhhhhhhhhhh, the OG Texas Chainsaw was good, did you see II- those people should have been nominated for some oscars!!!!! I love the original Shining...... Jack was awesome. It wasn't really a Halloween movie, but it messes with my head.

I used to love Witchboard. The sequels were absolutely horrible, but the first one was a good flick.

We have netflix and have seen a TON of them, by far my favorite subgenre in horror

There has to be at least one movie you saw that scared the living day lights out of you. What was it?

[piratebg]

I know these are a little more on the scifi side, but I'm a big fan of John Carpenter's The Thing and They Live.

[piratebg]

Another good rent is a movie called Slither. It had everying in it. Some aliens, zombies, blood, humor, and some pretty good action rolled into one heck of a movie.

[RedWhiteBlue]

See, I am not in to all the gore and guts- I like more of the scare and suspense. I guess that is the 'old' person in me.

While it was good, I was a bit disapointed in it..Fillion was good, but the movie did not live up to what I thought it would be

I like all horror. I don't think a movie has to be bloody to be scary, but sometimes it's just fun to watch a gorefest. I love suspense and movies that keep you guessing.

I went to see "The Nightmare before Christmas" in 3D with my wife this weekend because neither of us had been allowed to see it as children, but we couldn't believe that they didn't give any student discounts and charged a premium to see the movie! It was $10 a ticket! Pretty cool movie, but not worth the money.

I didn't see this movie until a year ago. It's fun and my kids like it. Right now, though, we've been watching Monster House like crazy. That's a fun movie too.

I also saw that one in 3D, but don't think it cost nearly as much...I'm looking forward to the day when they make 3D DVDs that you can buy that come with glasses to watch them with.

[piratebg]

I've never been a big fan of 3-D. I've never seen a 3-D movie that amazed me.

the new ones are great because they're in what they call "Real-D". They look just like the original movies with perfect color, but they have parts that move out and jump at you.

She's also in Bachelor Party, another of my faves form the 80s.

The original is good and the score was awesome. Parts II and III were ok. They are always showing these movies on Encore and Fox Movie Channel. The remake was bland.

I think he's an ambassador with eyes on the presidency or something like that. It's been a little while since I've seen it.

[SUPERMANN5107]

Any old movie such as Friday the 13th(Jason X), Nightmare on Elm Street, any of the Halloweens (even the new one), 28 Days/Weeks Later, 30 Days of Night, Asian Horror ( Grudge, Ring, Audtion, etc...), new Amityville Horror.

Can't watch the Exorcist. That movie just trips me out.

[rangerjoe33]

The first Jeepers Creepers was good.

[SUPERMANN5107]

Yea it was. The second one was terrible though.

anytime you bring a busload of kids into a horror film it gets bad really quickly.

[piratebg]

I've only seen the second one. I fell asleep trying to watch the first one. I also fall asleep trying to the watch The Texas Chainsaw Massacre remake.

You mean Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation. What a worthless sequel. :dispntd:

The original and the remake were both good, IMO.

[DUKE22]

How about mentioning some of the worst horror movies. Heres one Friday the 13th part VIII Jason takes Manhattan. I laughed till i cried, Jason gets into a boxing match on the roof of a building, and knocks the guys head into a dumpster.

[piratebg]

You should, if you haven't already, check out Howling II. The whole movie is hilarious, but the end credits are a must see. :D

"The Exorcist" back in the late 70's?

[rangerjoe33]

My Bloody Valentine came out in 1981...was one of the first horror films I ever watched...I was 11 or 12...haven't seen it since but it was pretty good then.

I thought that was a good one, but now, kind of.... funny.
I watched Silent Hill the other day and thought the robot dancing nurses was pretty funny........

[piratebg]

Silent Hill was a bore. The Descent was a much better film. Check that one out.

Did anybody ever see 'Night of the Scarecrow'- I think it was called. This MR man gets killed because the town people think he killed this little girl, but she was actually mauled by a dog and then his elderly mother hides him in the scarecrow out in the field. He then comes alive and starts killing the people that killed him? Man, now that was scary..........

It's still hard to find a more scary movie than the original Holloween with Jamie Lee Curtis.

Especially if you have a really surround sound for that MUSIC!
