Pick one

>>85580628
The Sleepaway Camp trilogy is one of the best.

>>85580984
The second one was mediocre as fuck. Not only that but I'd argue Halloween 3 is the only great Halloween film. People like to act like Halloween started the slasher genre when in reality many films before it had already created elements that became the norm after Halloween came out. Even if you watch the film today, it's literally just a basic slasher film. Films like TCM, Black Christmas, and Alice Sweet Alice did it better.

>>85580984
This. If there's more than one there is usually going to be at least 4.

>>85580628
could have been perfect if 2 wasnt the exact same movie as 1. i get why they did it, but still man its pretty weird

Alot of horror series have 7-8 films

The ones that are over three films aren't good though.

A personal favorite of mine is the Nosferatu trilogy. No it's not continuations. The film from 1979 is technically a remake and Shadow of the Vampire is a fictional story based on a real story.. Which is kind of confusing and hard to really describe.

Anyway all three are fantastic

>>85581894
I never understood why people go crazy over 2. The first is by far the better horror film and the sequel/re-telling is just slapstick and shit. I like it and all but it really kind of ruined the tone for what became Ash vs Evil Dead... which is a great show but way too silly.

What about movies we like to pretend stopped after the 3rd movie? This would have been the perfect trilogy.

I don't come around here often, does tv have a wiki or lists of recommended movies? I'm looking in particular for japanese horror.

>>85582065

House (1977)
Onibaba
Uzumaki
Kuroneko
Kwaidan
The Ghost of Yotsuya

This is literally all you need.

>>85582062
That would of been a good trilogy and probably the only decent slasher trilogy. Texas Chainsaw Massacre could of been close if the third film wasn't shitty. Although I would say it's still so bad it's good.

Why have 3 good movies when you can have 7? (soon to be 8)

>>85582493
Only one of those movies were even passable.

>>85582271
>This is literally all you need.
Don't fucking say that shit, cunt. There are plenty of other great movies beyond the shit you've seen.

>>85582720
I've seen too much. Japanese horror films are kind of... hit or miss.. Mostly miss with some few exceptions. Not going to name off a bunch of obscure shit that would be almost impossible for you to find so just settle with what you're given.

Basket Case Trilogy was good. Third was lacking a bit but all fun as hell.

>>85580628
The Tommy Jarvis trilogy of Friday the 13th contains two of the best films in the series. Sadly, the middle part kinda drops the ball.

>>85582493
>watching literally just torture porn
Why not just fucking watch Live Leak clips instead?

>>85581575
Eh, Halloween 1 was fine.
2, however, was indeed rather mediocre. Even though there is this great pairing of two weirdos, they barely do anything with them. Chasing Michael Meyers while the same things happen as in 1.
3 is indeed the best as it's actually simply entertaining. It's like a gory Goosebumps episode.

>>85582045
I found Evil Dead 1 to be too boring and chose to not finish it.
Months later, I got to see Evil Dead 2 which is far superior. Its pacing is tight as fuck, it doesn't get boring, and the comedy here and there doesn't necessarily ruin the horror parts of the film. Quite a feed, considering other movies such as Nightmare or Texas Chainsaw did not manage to do this right.
Evil Dead 3 on the other hand was not even an actual horror to begin with, it was more a dark fantasy film with some gore in it. Quite interesting, but ultimately doesn't do very much with that concept.

>>85582062
I like 4 more because it's more self-aware without becoming a parody, just moreso entertaining. Albeit 3 is still better and has an alright story, even though its characters are fucking nothing.

>>85582319
TCM2 is so bad, it tries so hard to be a comedy and fails so much cuz of it. And because it tries so hard to be funny, its horror aspects fall flat as well. Unnecessary "funny" dialogue everywhere.
Unless you enjoy Leatherface cumming his pants after being lewd with his chainsaw for way too long.

>>85583263
3, 4, 5 are all good for Friday 13th standards. 5 in particular has a neat setting and is as interesting as the rest. Jason or not, that really does not matter as it's a twist you only know at the end of the film.

>>85583238
Day of the Dead had potential and started great. Psychological problems and all that shit. The distance nothingness with few zombies inbetween.
And then it became a cave movie and the military wanna fuck you up, obviously, of course. And that's it. So fucking lame.

John Carpenter's Apocalypse Trilogy is really good. They're only connected out of universe, but they're all really good movies.

>>85583204
Yeah fuck off. Those movies are awful... Like most modern horror.

>>85583238
Agreed but then he had to ruin it with the next trilogy

>>85583695
Evil Dead 1 is only "boring" for the first half hour which sets up the film. Once it gets going, the ride never ends. I think you should take the time to watch and finish it before declaring the 2nd is better which it really isn't.

>I like 4 more because it's more self-aware without becoming a parody

Do you even like horror films or do you just like comedy horror?

>TCM2 is so bad

It's a classic and Tobe had the balls to not try and make it better than the original. It's great that it's not suppose to be taken seriously. I'd say it was never mean't to be a complete comedy rather it's self aware. Everything from the setting, characters, and death scenes were a complete blast to watch

>3, 4, 5 are all good for Friday 13th standards

None are good by any standards.

>Day of the Dead had potential

Day of the Dead is considered by many to be the favorite. Obviously not majority, but many people love it. It's a great film. I guess people just have different opinions

>>85584427
>do you even like horror films
Otherwise, I wouldn't enjoy some of them.

>do you just like comedy horror
In that case, I'd like more of that kind, I guess. I like Evil Dead 2.
I like NOES 4, but less than NOES or NOES 2.

I watched act 1 and 2 of Evil Dead, that's why I stopped. The ride never started for me, that's why I consider Evil Dead 2 to be superior.
Even if its third act was better, it doesn't make up for the slow burn that is 2/3 of the entire movie. Albeit you may see it differently, so there is that. Evil Dead 2 is consistently fast, that's why I enjoy it.

TCM is a better comedy than TCM 2 in any case. As it's mostly terror, the few comedy aspects have a much stronger effect on you... as long as you're not totally scared, I guess.

>TCM 2 was not supposed ot be a complete comedy
Most of the dialogue is just trying to put in "haha" jokes and that's it. More than it just being self-aware. Director even said it was supposed to be much more of a straight-forward comedy than the first one.

>no friday 13th movies are good by any standards
They're trash. 3, 4 and 5 are good for Friday 13th films. So, yes, that standard exists. How can you even debate that.
>Shitty movie 1-6 are all shitty. Shitty movie 4, however, is the best of that bunch.
Works just fine.

>Day of the Dead is considered by many to be the favourite
>obviously not majority
Yes, so, you can like it and yet know its flaws.
It just is less entertaining to people because it does much less with its concept than Day of the Dead. They use the mall setting so damn hard and make damn good use of it. So, it's entertaining, much more entertaining generally than Day.
People can still like Day over Dawn, that's just personal taste and some may like the cave or the military or the zombie pet that does... a few things.

>people have different opinions
Obviously.

I was expecting another cheesy monster movie, but man oh man that ending goes from 0 to "what in the actual fuck" in seconds.

>>85584766
The VVitch and A Dark Song

>>85583695
Part 3 isn't part of the Tommy Jarvis trilogy. I'm talking 4,5, and 6. Jason Lives is easily the best of the series and absolute slasher kino.

>>85584726
I also doubt that the police man doing his chainsaw shit for 10 minutes or so is not supposed to be comedic.
Way too long.
The swordfight was nice, but does not justify anything else.

>>85584846
Yeah, I meant 4, 5 and 6 since I was indeed talking about 5 there.
6 is of course the best Friday film.

However, as far as Friday goes, 5 is at least still better than the later movies. And the first one.
Its end fight was pretty tight.

>>85584766

>implying there has been a great horror film in the past 5 years

Modern horror films are incredibly bad. The last good horror film I remember seeing was bubba ho-tep but even that is like 15 years old now.

They all rely on CGI and using shitting actors who have no personality nowadays. I've seen so many films that just blend together, it's hard to separate one from another.

The Thing prequel film had so much fucking potential but was destroyed in post production. Horror is pretty much dead but I will admit the new "It" film has me interested.

>>85584766
Probably gonna have to go with It Follows.

Who's torrenting evil dead 2 from me?

>>85584817
Some of the acting was kinda shitty, and the cult was underwhelming in the end (excluding the leader, which was great). Good effects and monster design, though.

All of the scenes with the mute teen and his dad were great, too.

It's worth a watch.

>>85584979
there are still some good ones like the witch or raw there come out from time to time. horror has never been a well written genre to begin with, most ones during the 80s for example were just halloween copycats

>>85582271
>Uzumaki
The movie was slapsticky and dumb, just read the mango.

John Carpenter's Apocalypse Trilogy.

>>85586466
It has it's time and place.
With Uzumaki it wasn't really what I was hoping for, and it seemed to cheapen the moments from the source material.

I disagree with the second anon though, I felt Evil Dead 2 really did a good job of using the horror elements of the first(which was pretty corny sometimes, to be honest) while still managing to be funny, it's probably the only 'horror-comedy' that did it well.

>>85586864
I read the Uzumaki comics and they weren't really scary either. Don't know why everyone makes chocolate crumble cake in their pants when the comic's brought up.

>>85586864
Peter Jackson's early films were also good horror-comedy

The best horror trilogy is Silent Hill, Silent Hill 2 and Silent Hill 3
>B-b-but those are not movies!1
Fuck movies

>>85586864
Also, you could punch the demons in Evil Dead 2. You weren't constantly ragged around by them. Not nearly as one-sided which made for better fights.

>>85587082
*tips fedora*

>>85581575
The first one is one of the best minimalistic horror movies ever made. The problem is that it doesn't really hold much rewatch value.
I do like TCM better, but Halloween was just much more influential. Of course it took things from movies that came before, nothing exists in a vacuum, but it came up with several things that are still used in horror movies nowadays. It's a "basic slasher film" because it's the one that set all the bases.
However, I do like TCM much better because it's a far more unique movie that no other managed to replicate ever. And Alice Sweet Alice is also really good.

>>85586864
The problem with ED2 is that it shouldn't of been a horror comedy.

>>85586979
You mean Bad Taste and Dead Alive. Those were great but it's the only thing he ever did worth mentioning. Frighteners was shit due to CGI

>>85587116
It's not a god damn action movie.

>>85587208
Also, TCM is one of the most minimalistic movies for sure. Even the dialogue is so minimal that there's like 3 topics being talked about in the entire movie.
Most of it is because of the wheelchair guy and how he always talks about the same shit and comes back to it... but the cannibal family do the same thing.

>>85582045
I fucking love the first Evil Dead but Evil Dead 2 is just one of the best (if not THE best) horror comedies ever and it has some really inventive camerawork and a brilliant performance from Bruce Campbell.
Evil Dead is like a demo from a band, that you like to listen from time to time because it catches some rawness that is missing from the album and you learn to love it on its own way, but once you go back to listen to the album again you just realize that's always gonna be the best version.

>>85582062
2 is an absolute fucking cashgrab boring piece of shit though. On a technical level, it's better than 6 but at least I could laugh with that one.

>>85587224
*shouldn't have been

>>85587303
Nothing to do with it.
Being constantly punched by demons and you can never do anything about it is much more boring, in general. Fighting back, even if it always doesn't do much, is the better option. Evil Dead 2 did that. And it did not overdo it.

>>85587347
Had a great thematic, though.

>>85583751
In The Mouth Of Madness is not really good. Just ok. The script, lead actress and soundtrack are too shitty for it to be on the same level than Prince Of Darkness, let alone The Thing.

>>85584979
>The Thing prequel film had so much fucking potential
Potential to do what? Tell us what we already know? We all know exactly what it happened because we saw it happening all over again in the American camp. I still don't understand why anybody thought that was a good idea.

>>85586650
I re-watched Prince Of Darkness recently and it's much better than I remembered.

>>85587437
Prince of Darkness was pretty mediocre too exacpt when they are sleeping and you see that creeping shot on video scene of the shadow person standing... Something about that is just really cool to me.

>>85587560
>Potential to do what?
Potential to make practical effects mainstream again instead of only relying on fake looking CGI which all horror films use now.. Even fucking blood splatters are CG. Are you kidding me.

>>85587304
Nothing minimalistic about the family and the set-design of their house though. It was grotesque and rather baroque (which is why I love it).
They're kidna polar opposites in many ways, while being just as groundbreaking and brilliant. The difference is that some works of art inspire imitations, while others are so unique that it's impossible to do so, even for their own makers.

>>85587677
True. Though it had very limited set uses. IIRC, the scenes also only changed a couple of times within the movie.

>>85587620
Prince of Darkness had better performances, a better soundtrack, a much stronger atmosphere and most of all, it didn't drop the ball with the monster at the end like ITMOM did. It's full of brilliant ideas, even if it's not one of Carpenter's strongest films. ITMOM struggles too much with its shit script, which I guess is not Carpenter's fault. No doubt it would've been a horrible film if it wasn't for Carpenter. The only faults I blame on him are the awful soundtrack and the rubber monsters in the hallway.

>>85581932
It's also very rare to have a good film in a horror series past the third entry.

>>85587667
But that's the wrong reason to make a movie, it's a fucking gimmick, the same as making a movie just to showcase CGI and make it mainstream. If that's the motivation for a film, I'm out. I love practical effects, but I love good films much more.

Hammer horror's The Karnstein Trilogy.

>>85587907
What are some good Hammer movies anyways?
I struggled with the first few Dracula ones.

>>85587772
Yeah, it's a movie that made good use of its low budget but it's still not minimalistic in my opinion. Even when it's not actually that explicit, it feels grotesque and over the top. The silliness of the dinner scene ends up making it all so much more terrible, it's brilliant.
Halloween, on the other hand, is simply horror stripped to its most basic.
A comparison of Leatherface's and Mike Myers's masks would be a good way to symbolize the overall feel of both movies, or at least how I see them.

>>85587928
maybe not good, but a really novel film is the Legend of 7 Golden Vampires because for some reason Hammer horror and Shaw Bros kung fu decided to make a movie together. if you've watched a lot of both genres it feels like a really bizarre crossover episode of a TV show.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Legend_of_the_7_Golden_Vampires

>>85587928
Plague of the Zombies.
The Gorgon.
The Cushing Frankenstein films.
Captain Cronos: Vampire Hunter.
The Devil Rides Out.

Those are the ones I liked the most from the ones I've seen, which aren't that many anyway.

First Evil Dead was straight up horror.

>>85588103
I found the 1959 The Hound of the Baskervilles to be really spooky and comfy at the same time, like many Hammer horror films tend to be. I'm love Peter Cushing which also helps.

>>85588004
Too bad about the comedy relief scenes, otherwise it'd be pretty fucking flawless.

>>85588172
Yeah, it was a good one too, but I liked the ones in that list ever.
The only ones that were pretty bad that I've seen are the later Dracula ones.

>>85588172
yeah I'd watch Cushing and Lee investigate the dictionary, their onscreen chemistry was the best

>>85587950
While I can easily admit that TCM certainly is brilliant for a few reasons, I really have to say that some of the comedic aspects of the film are still unclear to me.
I laughed at the hammer scene, and I'm sure the 10 minute chase in the night was also intentional. Although, I am not too sure about it. While the Bugs Bunny chase certainly was part of its dark comedy, her screaming the entire time likely was not. After all, her scream is later used as part of the horror thematic when she's bound to the chair.
But what about the guy in the wheelchair? Was he supposed to be sympathetic or not?
While his sister redeemed herself (after being a psychotic bitch), he was Seinfeld's George and pitied himself all the time. The best scene of his happened in the beginning already, when he fell down the hill.
Also, I feel like the psychotic scream sequences where the girl screams and parts of her eyes et al are shown... aren't disturbing anymore, just annoying. Certainly quite the influence on other movies, but it just feels annoying to me.

I can see what you mean by comparing both Leatherface's and Myers' masks, though.
While Leatherface / TCM gets more under your skin and is all about the torture and the horror that lies within... Halloween is colder, basic. Myers' mask being white, like a ghost. Haunting the viewer and the protagonist. No blood. Just scare.

The third film is weak, but a solid trilogy.

And all that came out of that were them dying in human form. Eh.

>>85588305
>While the Bugs Bunny chase certainly was part of its dark comedy, her screaming the entire time likely was not.
That's the brilliance of the movie that no other horror film really caught though. It rides the line between horrific and comedic and never really goes to either side so you're left unclear if you're supposed to be laughing or feeling empathy for the characters and that ends up making it much more uncofortable for the viewer, in a way that works in the movie's favor. I think many of these things happened by chance and were not completely intentional from the part of the filmmakers (Tobe Hooper certainly showed to be pretty talentless later on), but regardless of that, the movie came out fucking brilliant.

>>85588312
Part 2 already dropped the ball with the Doctor character screwing the serious tone of the film. It also screwed up the Cenobites by showing them as completely worthless compared to The Doctor and taking away all the mystery from them by showing their human form.
3 was a step further away from what made the first one unique, and closer to turn it into yet another teenage horror franchise.
5-9 are some of the worst films I've ever seen.

Rami can't do horror. His slap stick style is far too comedic, and Bruce Campbell doesn't help with his over-the-top acting.

>>85589788
The evil dead was supposed to be a horror film.

I think Romero's original Zombie trilogy is best example of this.

All over solid and watchable.

I also want to say that Land is actually a solid 4th entry and cap to series as well.

only diary and survival are bad

>>85589893
It is. It's also just as campy as any other B-movie that came out during that time.

>>85589788
Evil Dead 2 does horror better than the first one, actually. It helps that the make-up is better.

Meanwhile, Army of Darkness remains something else. Fantasy with horror elements.

>>85589562
You're obviously in the minority since Dawn is probably the most liked of the 3.
And like I said, regardless of personal taste, none of the films are bad and the trilogy isn't ruined by any of them.

>>85581967
You're skipping Nosferatu A Venezia, which was originally meant as a sequel of Herzog's Nosferatu (Kinski refused to shave his head though) and it's utter shit.

>>85589562
There are less than 10 great Zombie films but the first 3 Romero films are in there.
>>85589788
Shit taste.
>>85589893
and succeeded
>>85589978
You're legitimately retarded and arguing this would be an insult to my intelligence.
>>85590589
Dawn might actually be the best but i'm not entirely sure... It depends on my mood. The mall setting was such a great idea.
>You're skipping Nosferatu A Venezia
I don't believe it was done by Herzog so it doesn't matter...Also Kinski dindunuffin wrong
>>85590599
Agreed.
>>85590657
New Nightmare is a mixed bag for people.
>>85591825
Hatchet is shit.
>>85592204
Never seen but the concept seems interesting. It's just a shame I have no patience for more found footage bullshit. It's been done to death

>>85588312
Skinless Julia is possibly the most patrician fap I have ever accomplished.


>>85588742
Hellbound expanded the scope set by the first, expanded the mythos without destroying the mystery and wonder, had unique visuals of its own, and has an original plot of its own. It's one of the best horror sequels ever made IMO. Flawed, yes, low concept as hell, sure, but it makes for a tremendous double feature with the first.

>>85594414
Look at this autist and laugh.

>>85594414
>I don't believe it was done by Herzog so it doesn't matter.
Neither were the other two pics in that post.

>>85588742
Oh, and I fully agree that everything after 4 is painfully bad. Given how bad 3 and 4 were they are all the more astounding in their badness.

>>85594447
If you're going to act like a child, kindly leave.
>>85594481
Don't ruin a perfectly good trilogy.

>>85594422
>expanded the mythos without destroying the mystery and wonder
Bullshit. Showing the human form of the cenobites does exactly that, and seeing them jobbing to a shitty Freddy Kruger ripoff like The Doctor takes away all the aura around them.

>>85590599
Agreed. High energy and takes no prisoners intensity. I like all three ED movies (new one wasn't terrible but it's a different animal) for what they are.

>>85594505
>Don't ruin a perfectly good trilogy.
It's not perfect if you skip films. A trilogy is not just picking three films you like at random. If you're gonna try to make up a trilogy from a theme, you have to be thorough. Besides that, you're skipping the only one that was actually conceived as a sequel.

>>85594559
"Trilogy" is an all too misunderstood and overused term. A trilogy is either a complete story told in three parts or else it is three movies based on a theme particularly of which the three explore that theme in different ways. This is why The Lord of the Rings is a true trilogy while Star Wars is really a movie with two sequels. Similarly Romero's original Dead movies form a true trilogy as does Carpenter's Apocalypse trilogy.

>>85594559
The sequel is not even canon anyway so it doesn't really matter. If that sort of situation was valid than Zombi 2 would be part of the Romero trilogy instead of Day of The Dead.

It is simply 3 separate non canonical Nosferatu films thus making it a trilogy. No it is not the common way of creating a trilogy but it's worth it.

>>85594513
Hey.


I liked Doctor Channard...

>>85594659
>as does Carpenter's Apocalypse trilogy.
Do they actually take place on the same world?

>>85594414
Evil Dead ain't that great. And the third one isn't horror

>>85594769
You are in the minority if you don't think Evil Dead is great but you're free to express your opinion.

As for AoD. Yes it's more of a fantasy but it's still part of the trilogy.

>>85594671
>The sequel is not even canon anyway
Says who? Where is the "canon" of Nosferatu films?
Again, in a made up trilogy, you're skipping the only one that was actually conceived as part of the same story as another one of those films, and that repeats the same actor as one of those other films in the title role.

>>85594827
It's alright.
It's campy, its effects are mediocre, and Evil Dead 2 does everything better.

>>85594900
Might be nitpicking, but I like the vocal effects on the first ED better than than ED2. They sound way creepier.

>>85589279
Holy shit, nostalgia.

>>85594700
Not that I know of. Never heard the notion until this thread. They're a thematic trilogy.

Is funny games good?

>>85595124
Kinda pretentious. Because it's made by a pretentious director.
Other than that, it's ok. It's just trying very hard.

>>85594769
this is my angry reply to your post

no but really, I can imagine why someone would not like it for not strictly being a typical horror film, it's more of a dark cheesy comedy imo. I still love it though, and I could easily say Evil dead 2 is in my top 5 favorite movies

>>85595124
Yes, they're great. Both original and english remake are the same so watch either one.

>>85582062
I actually came here to say that NoES 3-5 has a consistent story arc within the series. It's the Dream Warrior trilogy.

>>85594897
It's not canon because the guy who did the first film had nothing to do with the sequel. That's like saying my new Dracula film is canon to the previous film because I say so.

>>85594900
>>85594917

The first Evil Dead had amazing effects and was an overall better film.

>>85596924
RIP thread

Was decent until all the Evil Dead 2 fags showed up with their shitty taste.

>>85597993
#edgy

>>85597993
what?, no one's even arguing over/about Evil dead 2

are you just trying to be inflammatory

>>85581027
I've seen a ton of horror movies, I mean a ton. I just watched sleepaway camp a month or two ago. I am 21 years old, and for the record, I have a pretty high tolerance to "omg so scary" bullshit. That movie's ending had me creeped right the fuck out. I haven't been that scared since I was 13 and saw Signs on night and then Jeepers Creepers the next.

>>85599033
I don't remember the last time I was creeped out from a movie. It might of been begotten which is a truly disturbing film.

>>85599272
Never seen begotten, but I have seen the infamous scene every horror youtuber puts in the clip when they talk about it. Is that the creepiest part or does it get worse? If the former, then that movie is likely too artsy fartsy for me to enjoy.

>>85582062
1 and 2 have the best Freddy's. 3 and 4 are the best movies.

>>85599340
If you can handle Eraserhead, then this shouldn't be too hard for you. The whole story is pretty fucked up but it's enjoyable I feel.
