What are some essential Horrorkinos, its a genre i've never really looked into

Candyman is one of my all-time favourite horrors.

>>80352617
Dog Soldiers.

Signs

blair witch project and the ring (american version) are my favorites.
>>
I would give you a comprehensive list but you used the word "kino" so instead I'm going to tell you to go fuck yourself.

Fifth post, best post

It's literally another dumb tourist shitting up on /tv/. Give him something b&w or before 1980 and he will screech, I'm sure
>>
Cool thread, I've been curious about this genre myself. I watched The Machinist a while back and it seems to be categorized as a thriller but it felt like a horror to me. I find I like the "psychological horror" type of films where they're more subtle about it, less of that jump scare angry ghosts bullshit. I'm gonna watch Neon Demon soon because apparently it's one, that might be good too.

>>80352979
Yeah, based on that reaction I'm going to guess your answers wouldn't have been very good anyway.
>>
>>80353179
Definitely watch the blair with project, not a thriller but there's no jumpscares and the horror comes from your imagination basically
>>
The Thing (1982)
Alien
Rosemary's Baby
Halloween
The Exorcist
Night of the Living Dead
Dawn of the Dead
Day of the Dead
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
The Fly
It Follows

Only after you've seen a lot of other horror:
Scream
Cabin in the Woods

If you're counting horror comedy:
Braindead/Dead Alive
Evil Dead 2
Army of Darkness
Poultrygeist

>>80352888
Excellent by the low standards of the genre (werewolf movies).
>>
>>80352617
Stuff that hasn't been posted

Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The Borderlands
It Follows

>I'm gonna watch Neon Demon soon because apparently it's one

It's style over substance shit. Watch Starry Eyes instead, similar themes but much better execution.

>>80352963
>blair witch project
Found footage is the worst genre. And the sad thing is, this is actually good by the standards of the genre.
>>
>>80353179
>less of that jump scare angry ghosts bullshit
Don't make this mistake anon. Find within yourself the capability to ironically enjoy jump scares and erotic slasher/monster fliques. Grab some snacks and beer with your friends, open up shit like Hills Have Eyes and go full on "AWW SHIT GURRL DONT GO IN THERE" mode. You'll have a blast.

i agree that found footage is trash but blair witch was the only film that did it right.
>>
>>80352617
A lot of people will post a lot of meme movies itt (witch, it follows) don't fall for this underage b& shit. The holy grail of horror kino is 28 days later and it shits all over everything else itt

This thread began as "not Reddit". And with this post it just went full Reddit.
>>
>>80353722
It Follow is the only horror that's even slightly scary. Horror is not usually scary because 24fps is constantly reminding you that it's not real with the poor motion quality. It Follows bypasses that by being psychologically scary - you, the viewer, are going to die too, and there's nothing you can do about it. And it's made by somebody who obviously cares a lot about the genre, so I can forgive its minor flaws.
>>
>>80353790
How is it reddit?
>>
>>80353790
Not really. The thread started with someone probably from reddit with the kino imbecility, and now reaches the usual plebness with your post.

Lake Mungo is great, btw, one of the best in the genre since the '90s

Patrician's Guide:

Start from the beginning of horror cinema and work your way through to the mid-90s then STOP RIGHT THERE and proceed to only view foreign horror.

You talk like someone straight from /b/. Then again, there's plenty of company here

>>80353402
>>80353694
Found footage is simply a subgenre, not good or bad by default. And many other films have value within it, even if Blair is really one of the best.

I highly recommend checking out late 90's-early 2000's japanese and korean horror movies, lots of spooky shit was made over there in that period

>The Ring
>The Eye
>Dark Water
>Ju-On

etc etc

Not even horror. The monster is metaphorical. Everything it supposedly does is done by the lead character.

The Ring was spookino

I was under the impression that this level of plebdom was strictly legendary.

You do know a lot of horror movies do that kind of shit, right?

It's the kind of dumb shit you can expect from a female director. Copy the style of The Exorcist but remove the demon.

Symbolism.

It's no more real than Jack's conversation with the bartender or Grady.

>>
>>80354419
Interesting list. I personally prefer hellraiser 2 but love all of your other choices.

Henry is a great movie. I feel like you could almost fill a thread with FF movies from the perspective of serial killers. Man Bites Dog is another that springs to mind.

Shutter
Kill List

Watch Inside, that was pretty fun. Went kind of off the rails in the third act. Carptenter's Apocalypse trilogy. The Serpent and The Rainbow, which is the only good Wes Craven movie.
>>

Fuck off, hipster pleb

>>80355748
Glad you liked it. I miss when movies had memorable scores.
>>
>>80352800
Can you recommend that anymore? It's straight up a movie about discrimination and blacks being second-tier citizens.

I think the appropriate reaction now is to say "moar like cuck-dyman!" and then sniff one's own farts for a solid hour.

>>80356004
Dream Warriors is the only good NoES movie and it wasn't directed by Craven. And Serpent has one of the best villain monologues of all time. "What did you dream of Dr. Allen?"
>>
>>80353259

>The Fly

Jeff Goldblum deserved an Oscar for his work in this movie. I feel like The Fly will be one of those timeless movies like The Exorcist, which only gets better and better with each viewing.
>>
>>80356933
>Dream Warriors is the only good NoES movie
Stop trying to bait around

>>80357197
Yeah, Cronenberg was on fire for much of the decade
>>
>>80357197
Best remake ever. I forgot to specify the date when I first listed it, but it should be obvious I meant the 1986 version. Original The Fly is laughably bad.
