As It's almost Halloween...

[214 Metroline]

The Korean film A Tale of Two Sisters, wonderful Asian horror. There is a remake out soon called The Uninvited(something like that)...

 

[Audiophile]

As It's Almost Halloween I want to watch some horrors/thrillers movies..

Are Prom Night and T33th (I think it is) worth seeing?

What do you recommend I see (that have been released recently)?

 

[I killz you.]

Halloween (original), definitely!

Am buying the 2007 version soon - can't wait to see it

 

[Jenasaqua]

It's awful. An hour of back story.. etc. It's so poor and not a patch on the original, can't be bothered to write further!

 

[Cassi Stellar(:]

The original Prom Night with Jamie Lee Curtis is worth seeing, to me it's a classic slasher film even though a lot of people thought it was rubbish. If you mean the remake, don't bother wasting your time, watch some other horror.

Teeth I have yet to see this, suppose to be rather good.

I recommend The Orphanage, and [REC] if you haven't seen the two films yet. Brilliant films. Unless you want lots of gore then maybe not...

Or The Descent!

 

[Say I Am You]

This is a good idea for a thread - me and my OH are having a scary film fest on the 31st.

We'll have the original Hallowe'en, plus 1408, plus maybe Blair Witch- can anyone recommend any other good ones?

 

[TannerW]

Couldn't agree, or recommend these more, if you want the absolute bejesus scared out of you, never want to sleep again and/or crap yourself everytime the phone rings weeks after watching one! Brilliant stuff! Try The Eye, One Missed Call, Ring, Ju-on, Phone, Dark Water, The Doll Master, A Tale Of Two Sisters ... Never mind any of the crappy lame Hollywood remakes. They don't even come close.

Also must jump on "The Descent" bandwagon ~ fantastically scary!

 

[Stripes and Dots]

The Descent is the scariest film I have ever seen - looking forward to the second one!!

 

[Nikki H]

Rent it, save money. I wouldn't buy it at all, it's a terrible version of the film and totally misses one point of the original, Myers is mysterious. Don't want a lot of crap stuff added in about his childhood and full on background.

 

[ps3-im-12 mike]

I'm not. Follows on from the American ending...



1408 is creepy, good choice. Definitely need the original Halloween. Totally check out the ones I mentioned above.

The Changeling is one too, from the late 70s or early 80s, can't quite remember.

 

[manhattangurl10]

The originals of Halloween and The Texas Chainsaw Massacre

 

[hondafmxfan]

Wolf Creek is still rather good though

 

[Dexter Morgan]

Here's one I recommend if you're on your own and suffer a nervous disposition
When a stranger calls
Make sure it's the 1979 version not the remake

 

[Brenna F]

1.Halloween (obv for halloween)
2.The descent!! (scary!
3. The Strangers!! (REMAKE!!)



Teeth was not scary at all but was amusing and entertaining!


Prom NIght is an ok slasher. pretty predictable though!


1408 is great full of twists and jumps!

The Orphanage and Rec are really scary if your watching in a cinema! But watching them in the house didnt think they were scary must have been the cinematic atmosphere!

But any of the above films would give you a good scare at least once

 

[!<>BabyGurl<>!]

Seeing as Halloween is more of a fun thing than anything truly scary, I'll recommend some old horros high on the cheese/fun factor.

Motel Hell.
Re-animator.
Sleepaway Camp.
The People Under The Stairs.
Basket Case.
The Burning.

 

[<Cass>]

Get hold of some good old Asian horrors, beats the American films hanRAB down.

 

[Ant8]

What American ending?

I loved the ending to the 'The Descent' I saw...

Oh why do I feel like they've tacked on some watered down s*** ....

 

[Bat-te-ry]

The Hills have eyes (remake)

 

[sonj]

The remake of Halloween I thought was enjoyable, if rather too black and there are a few very disturbing scenes.

 

[xtreem_baseballer]

Oo yeah, forgot about that. Nice choice.
