Horror Film Recommendations

[Deme]

yes..I like to be scared

I recommend Baby Sitter Wanted..If you like gory and scary, jumpy stuff, this film is the one

Embrace older films too. As I've aged cry I'm finding that a lot of the older and/or black and white horrors I first saw as a kid are having more of a psychological effect on me, whereas their creeping, uneasy sublety might have been lost first time round.

I don't know if it's been mentioned already, but Jack Ketchum's The Girl Next Door.

Now that's real horror.

Dead Set....Considering it was an E4 production this film/series was pretty damn good.....I found myself hiding behind a cushion and lowering the volume the first time I watched it......I probably enjoyed it more second time around as I could actually watch the film in it`s entirety.....and Davina McCall was the mother of all Zombies.....The odd hole in the plot and a couple of..."why did they do that" moments...but nevertheless an excellent film and definitely well worth a view.....Critics loved it as well.

Ones that I like that I haven't seen mentioned yet:
I prefer the more suspenseful creepy ones rather than the ones that are 'just' gorey although suspense AND gore together work well for me also.

Silent Hill
Suspiria
Hush (out to rent/buy soon) - Very tense low budget thriller
Creep
Storm Warning
Dead Silence
Pin
The Sentinel
Magic
Rosemarys baby
Don

The best ones are probably The Thing, TCM (original but I also liked the remake and the prequel), Halloween, The Evil Dead trilogy and Nightmare on Elm Street.

I thought My Little Eye was scary in a way. Try to find a copy of the TV version of The Woman in Black - it's very creepy and frightening, one part in particular will have you screaming!!

I also like Last House on the Left, but it's not so much a horror.

 

[Chapo]

I think I'll Sky+ it.

 

[chd guy]

I saw Paranormal Activity last night and I enjoyed. It's best watched in complete darkness , makes it more scarier lol. Obviously this film isn't for everyone but I'd recommend it.

 

[♣ALT]

Wolf Creek(Horror/Thriller if you want), and Last House on the Left(both versions) fall under the Horror genre. Horror isn't just supernatural elements.
