10/10 Horror movies

The Shining
The Thing (1982)
Les Diabolique
The Haunting (1963)
Eyes Without a Face
The Bride of Frankenstein

Those are some good starters that are actual 10/10s.

>>18597819
Event Horizon
The Conjuring 2: The Enfield
Lake Mungo
The Thing (1982)
Lights Out

Banshee chapter is pretty good.

>>18598878
>The Conjuring 2: The Enfield
The entire conjuring trilogy suck balls.
>Lights Out
One of the worse horror movies I've seen. Even worse than babadook. The sad part is [spoiler alert don't read if you gonna watch it] is that they had potential to make it a sophisticated movie with the ghost being the actual depression of the mother and the murders being her works (hence shooting herself in the end the murders) but instead of going down that road they decided to make it yet another retarded spooky ghost movie.

>>18598878
If you watch the conjuring 2 you'll notice chairs. Lots and lots of chairs. Some in normal places but many oddly positioned. Not to mention the main chair the old man died in.

I'm telling you guys, there's something up with all those chairs.

Personally I would say the best horror films I can think of are:

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (beautiful photography, soundtrack - or lack of soundtrack and just noises, location, actual above decent acting, devastating when you analyse the absolute lack of moral ground throughout the film)

Blair Witch Project (Yes it spawned a bunch of garbage but at the time this film was incredible and iconic. It grounds itself on relying solely on tension and physiological themes and not violence and jump scares.)

The Witch (The marketing was horrific and totally miss-sold the film. It is more historical than straight up horror, but the dedication that's evident through out is phenomenal and it portrays paranoia and religious/unknown land fear perfectly. Plus its gorgeous)

Some others include Kill List, The Shining, It Follows, House (probably the equivalent to laughing on acid), Possession, The Thing, The Brood, Halloween (only the original), Dont Look Now, The Wicker Man (1973 obviously), Ringu and Onibaba.

Of course there are lots more that will scare you or make you jump, but the ones above are the only I have seen that actually feel genuine and original.

anyone got good european horror movies?

Suspiria, by Dario Argento.

Zombie, by Lucio Fulcci.

What a shitty overrated movie, this is nothing but 90's bs and it's an insult for cosmic horror fans

>>18597819
The Entity (1981)

Like the Jaws theme sound prior to the attack, this one has one that's pretty creepy just before the entity strikes.

>>18597819

watch troll 2

>>18600531

It has a comfy 90s sci fi vibe, but I agree it's not all that scary. But I saw it as a kid the first time (when I believed in hell), and it scared the living fuck out of me.

NO. Stop. Bro. Don't do it. Trust me. Your life will be diminished. The light will never be quite as bright. Consider something healthy instead, like mainlining heroin or sucking off a tranny behind the bus stop.

>>18599363

The first Alien movie is really suspenseful, good scifi horror, way ahead of its time, aged really well, it came out in 79, damn
The second one is a great action flick
The other ones kinda suck

>>18600267
Teeth was kinda funny imo.

>>18601160
It's just that I grew up in Mk shit. Literally in the care of people that lived salo, from the fun ownership side. At 5 I knew from personal experience that requiring the earning of water is a certain way to hold a human's full attention. I'm empathetic and compassionate when given a choice in the matter. But as the old song goes, when you've got a job to do.. you've got to give the other fellow hell. I'm confident that the movie will bring a sense of satisfaction.

>>18602274
No offense, but you sound majorly autistic.

>>18602304

Also some 80s and 90s gory ones

Videodrome
Hellraiser
In The Mouth Of Madness
Re-Animator
The Fly
Event Horizon

REC, spanish version.
and please ppl, badabook and conjuring movies are just movies to scare some 14y old, not intresting at all.

>>18602589
I found Babadook interesting. True, it's not scary, but nicely made.
But I'd say the same about Rec. You found that scary? Surely not. It was very good, though.

Are there even scary horror movies anymore? The ones that try very hard usually have such shitty stories that it's hard to get immersed. Or they keep breaking their own rules and get ridiculous.

Posting some personal favorites:

Kill List. Builds suspense extremely well through the whole film. Don't read anything about it, just watch it.

The Pouhgkeepsie Tapes. "Found footage" of a serial abductor. Of one the best found footage films in ny opinion.

And almost anything by Lynch. I don't know, but watching movies like Mulholland Drive and Eraserhead I had so much feeling of dread and surreality the entire movies. Especially the movies which fuck with time one way or another

>>18597823
Why are all your movies old? Are you some sort of hipster?

>>18602818
Not that anon, but... Are there any recent good ones? They don't make horror like they used to.
Give me one more recent movie that comes close to The Changeling.

The one thing I actually find frightening in film, whether its intended to be horror or not, is when a character is abruptly confronted with a situation that shatters their perception of reality. Getting jumpscared by a monster or haunted by a skellington is pretty spooky, but nothing resonates with me in the same way, I think cause I sometimes have issues with derealization / ego death. Anyone else know that feel?

>>18603091
I liked Grave Encounters for this reason

Any other cosmic horror a la event horizon ?
bonus points if occult and not alien

The Autopsy of Jane Doe was actually really good. Probably one of the best horror films I seen in a very long time. Lets you use your imagination a lot and you end up freaking yourself out.

>>18601525
that movie fucking sucked so hard just like all of rob zombies recent work since halloween, dude seriously has went downhill as of late

>>18602850
Not that anon, but Martyrs.

Enter the Void fucked me up majorly and I'm fairly sure it was not supposed to be a horror film. Shit gave me nightmares.

It follows.

>>18603091
What films give this feeling?

>>18603657
It usually only happens briefly. This may not be the best explanation, but that War of the Worlds movie that came out about 10 years ago, with Tom Cruise, they explore that happening to his character pretty well I think. The most recent time Ive seen something like this happens early in Westworld. Will try to think of better examples, kinda blanking right now.

I'd also add Roman polanski's apartment trilogy if you like paranoia themed films.

>>18600267
Is Hard Candy REALLY a scary movie though?

Like it was fine and kind of slow, but I wouldn't use the term horror o define it at all. No spoilers incoming about it though.

>>18600267
>Teeth

Maybe if you want a good laugh.

>>18603632
I didn't get honestly scared from it, but it is one of my more favorite recent ones.

The idea the movie sets is spooky but of course full of holes, no matter hoe much i enjoyed it.

if it weren't for the [spoiler] weird sex scene that barely contributed to the plot [/spoiler] it would have been completely void of entertainment value

I humbly recommend:

The Apartment

Hellraiser I&2
House On Haunted Hill
Phantasm
Sinister

HUR DUR There's a secret cult in the movie, this is so wicked.

Audition by Takashi Miike

Hausu (1977), surrealist horror. it's got some fucking great camera effects in it.

Gozu by Takashi Miike. Another surrealist horror. Surrealist horror is the best to be honest.

>>18597819

I don't know how people like you can just throw a movie like The Conjuring under the bus like it's a pile of crap. It's a really well made movie. Do you not understand the effort involved into creating a movie like that?

The scariest movie that stuck with me, probably because I watched it so young is Darkness Falls.
The movie that genuinely creeped me the fuck out and make me nervous to be home alone one night is Close Encounters of the 4th Kind. (Others are decent, but 4 is genuinely fuxking creepy)

I've sucked off a couple trannies behind bus stops. Sometimes, they're qt traps, sometimes they're just femmy guys. And always, they orgasm, which is good because it releases a lot of feel good orgasms. They run their hands through your hair, they say things both demeaning and thankful. In other words, sucking off trannies is a pleasant activity between you and another person.

Salo is unpleasant. It is unlove, it is the anti-joy.

>>18615556
>The Nixon scene
If you're not familiar with american history, it might go over your head.
Basically, Nixon is trying to destroy evidence that links him to what he thinks might be the true story of the JFK assassination. Dick instead threatens him into behaving like a good little president, overtly threatening him with exposure and covertly (but just barely) threatening him with assassination. And then it gets way fucking spooky and I don't even fucking know.

I actually consider the original Blair Witch Project to almost be a character drama about people trapped by a supernatural threat, but I recognize that's not a commonly shared view, and that film's merits have been discussed over and over again, even in this thread.

I finally bit the bullet and watched It Follows, and to be frank, I don't get the high praise. It was alright, but not the modern masterpiece it was made out to be.

>>18616402
I thought that is how we all felt about it. It was unique in a sea off re-hashed crap. That alone made it "ok". I liked it. I just didn't like it that much.

>>18614083
Have you not seen his interview about why he remade Halloween? He said that he felt like the franchise had already been ruined because so many cheesy remakes already existed. And he had a point. His was better than several others.


I just wasn't a fan of his over gorifying a traditionally not that gory series of movies (as far as slasher movies go.)

>>18616402
Good terror movie with horror elements. I haven't seen terror captured so well in a long time.

>>18616394

Halloween has been dead since the first movie and isn't relevant anymore anyway. Much the same as all old horror flicks.

>>18616439
I actually do agree with you on this. More than any other horror franchise, Halloween should have ended with the first film. It at least should have ended when Donald Pleasence died, considering he was the best part in all of the shitty sequels.

putting together a list of zombie movies. any suggestions welcomed.

>>18617797
Evil Dead 1 and 2 might count, though some people might want you to put 28 Days (Weeks) Later on a zombie flick chart.

>>18617797
A better list would be "zombie movies that don't suck".

>>18617807
28 days later would be better suited to a list entitled, "Movies with plots stolen without credit from forgotten british writers of the 1950s"

Because hurr durr i love classic horror i must have excellent taste.

Seriously these fucktards watch the movies with preconceived notion because theyre "classics" so they're too afraid to dislike them.

>>18618935
Stop being a pussy. Poor effects and horrible acting from these movies actually scare you?

>>18618946
What are your great suggestions then, you whiny little cunt?

>>18618953
Just because it doesn't keep you up at night doesn't make it a shitty movie. Fuck, if I based the quality of a horror movie on how much it scared me, I'd literally have no suggestions.

>>18605854
>hard candy

Awful awful movie. The protagonist is insufferable, I get where she is coming from but her actions and mannerisms threw the entire movie off. I wanted the pedophile to murder her just so she would shut up. Self righteous anti-lolita tripe, ruined potential.

>>18620609
Eraserhead does, at the very least.

>>18597819
The Thing
The Fly
Alien

Someone help me, I watched a found footage movie in 2014 and can't find it, I've spent hours searching. I'm pretty sure it came out in 2013, maybe 2014, could be wrong.

From what I remember it was about a few guys who were recording another guy who was being haunted or something. The guy being filmed had been doing drugs/magic with his girlfriend but when stuff started moving across the room, the guy blackout out and attacking her etc they separated. The leader of the film crew doesn't believe in the supernatural but finds scratches on his chest, shadows on their cameras when they stop at motels etc. At the end the crazy guy disappears into the desert, and I believe their van starts driving itself and runs him over or something. From what I remember most of the movie is them driving around the desert.

>>18604835
The museums throughout Europe show the fact that salo is mild in contrast to how a large number of people experienced the church and state. That modern society has been caused to be unaware of this fact shows that the responsible parties still hold sway.

>>18600531
Agreed, didn't like it very much at all but everyone does hype the shit out of it so maybe I was expecting too much.

>>18599261
>The Witch

I really liked it just for the realism and historical aspect. The fact that they used authentic medieval writings for dialogue was cool. Didn't care for the cliche devil shit.

PS: chick had a nice ass.

>>18602566
>The Den

Fucking loved that. The ending was great. It was like a movie about the "deep web" before it was really a common thing. I'd like to see a sequel with a larger scope. Like a mix between the first and Maniac (2013). Maybe include some internet lore and shit like that.

Also "Creep" was great. Really unnerving and great acting.

>>18602818
majority of new movies try to copy original movies and don't do as good a job

the horror genre has pretty much been reduced to "BOO!" movies and puppets and clowns.

If The Thing is "too old" for you, you don't deserve to watch good movies.

>>18599261
>devastating when you analyse the absolute lack of moral ground throughout the film

care you explain this? i like a lot of old horror classics, but the original TCM always was extra boring and not scary at all to me.

Buckethead's "songs" which sample that movie are scarier.

>>18622125
the original Thing film is also very good in it's own right. the unique dialogue style really stands out in my mind.

>>18602572
The Fly stands above the others
Videodrome probably 2nd

If you haven't seen it, watch From Beyond.
Its like a superior version of Re-Animator. Same director.
He also did one called Dagon which has a really nice ending, but is definitely more towards the budget side of things.

>>18622150
are you talking about the John Carpenter version? I always assume thats what people mean when they say "The Thing"

or are you talking about the one from the 1950s? Haven't seen that, but will if its worthwhile

as a film buff this filck really let me down. early in the film (script) they set up how fire looks in space. they said it pours like water in zero gravity.

I caught that as a set up for a big fire scene toward the finish. Welp there was a huge fire scene but none of it was weightless fire so im just there like..... fuckthismovie.jpg

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q58-la_yAB4
I guess the budget wasnt big enough for the special effects.

"Have you ever seen fire in zero gravity? It's beautiful... It's like liquid. It slides all over everything. Comes up in waves."

>>18601521

this

>>18599357
Mario Bava did masterful gothic horror: The mask of Satan is a good place to start, though other works of his, such as Kill, Baby, Kill or Black Sabbath are also commendable.
Dario Argento was influenced by Bava and Suspiria, probably his seminal work, already mentioned. Other generally well considered films of his include The Bird with the Crystal Plumage, Phenomena, Deep Red and Inferno.

Then there's german expressionism: Vampyr by Carl Theodor Dreyer is amazing, and Nosferatu is defnitely a must-see as well. The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari is also pretty great, if only for the representation of the artistic movement that spawned it and how revolutionary it was back in the day.

Hour of the Wolf by Ingmar Bergman is pretty fantastic as well, though it's pretty symbol-heavy and artsy. I'd also really recommend Caché, though I can't remember the director right now. Great movie, but not too easy to find- I had to order the DVD to give it a watch, but wasn't disappointed.

Les yeux sans visage has already been mentioned, as has one of my absolute favorites, Diabolique. Other than that, [REC] is actually pretty great if you're into well-made found-footage.

>>18600306
It's a solid 8/10 and I really love it for everything it tried and succeeded to do. Just worth it if you do some background reading on Passolini and his intentions as well as the Marquis de Sade and/or are really deeply into film and disgust in art and absolutely certain that you'll "get it". If you aren't and thus don't, it's probably a disgusting, boring mess or something, I guess.

>>18613438
Pasolini had no reason to be 2edgy4u though, and it really isn't. You could call it pretentious maybe, but instead of giving the pretense of meaning without really saying anything, as the word actually implies, it isn't even that because it succeeds quite well at what it does. It's faschism explained through the Marquis the Sade.
Though I agree people overhype the gore/shit and all that. I'm just pissed because I think it's a legit great film. Like that scene in the circle of blood with the soldier-boys dancing waltz while the one guy watches the torture in the backyard through his opera glasses in his satin bathrobe. I fucking love that scene. Just everybody always reacts as if it was straight up snuff porn when you mention the damned film.

>>18615540
Cheesy, but I love those. Especially in the Mouth of Madness.

>>18618946
Or maybe it's because these films are fucking great.

>>18603091
Perfect Blue is a great film for this if you don't mind anime

I saw The Babadook not too long ago and I really liked it. The ending wasn't the strongest, granted, but it's worth checking out. Personally I thought it was too cheery despite everything that happened. It has something to say, though, and every aspect of the movie is there to get that point across, so it's not terribly ambiguous.

Blair Witch is still my favorite

The Orphanage was pretty good, too

>>18597819
As some others have posted, I think Creep is a really fantastic film. One of the best horror movies I've seen recently, no jump scares or any sp00ky demons or whatever but it's just genuine psychological horror. The filming and acting are put together so well it really makes for a gripping film. I think it's on Netflix currently too so no need for a shitty rip from a torrent site.

Just watch short films on YouTube.
99% of horror films are trash

>>18597819
A lot of these will probably already have been mentioned in the thread. But I'm pre-writing this post in
the notepad to put my years of horror obsession get to good use and create kind of a horror-film-recommendation masterpost. These are all between 7/10 and 10/10 as far as I'm concerned.


Das Kabinett des Dr. Kaligari (The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari)
1920. Germany. Dir: Robert Wiene
Stand-out german expressionist silent film about sleepwalking and mental illness, at least somewhat. Remarkable for it's sets and historical significance.


Nosferatu, eine Symphonie des Grauens
1922. Germany. Dir: F.W. Murnau
Written by Henrik Galeen, loosely adapting Bram Stoker's Dracula, classic german expressionist silent film that you have already heard about and everybody should have seen.


Häxan: Witchcraft through the Ages
1922. Denmark. Dir: Benjamin Christensen
Very early documentary giving an historical overview of witchcraft in seven parts and a variety of styles with lots of re-enacted scenes. Extremely interesting historical piece and surprisingly entertaining if you can stomach silent films. Features literal ass-kissing.


Vampyr - Der Traum des Allan Grey
1932. Germany. Carl Theodor Dreyer
Silent film, ends of german expressionism, historically important and impressive, personal favorite out of the silent german ones.


Freaks
1932. USA. Dir: Tod Browning
You're on 4chan, thus you won't be offended by the actual invalids and circus freaks reprising roles as just the latter to tell an horrifying as well as emotionally effective story about disparity. Origin of gobble gobble one of us.


Diabolique (Les Diaboliques/The Devils)
1955. France. Henri Georges Clouzot
Character-heavy mystery, psychological thriller about a plot to murder the headmaster of a provincial boarding school by virtue of him being a massive dick, absolutely masterful.

(1/?)

>>18624205

Psycho
1960. USA. Dir: Alfred Hitchcock
Proto-Slasher, adaption of a pretty great Robert Bloch novel, classic you already know about and everyone should have seen.


Peeping Tom
1960. UK. Dir: Michael Powell
Proto-Slasher that sets the killer as the main character about Voyeurism, pretty fucking fantastic.

Les Yeux sans Visage (Eyes without a Face)
1960. France. Georrges Franju.
Atmospheric film about a surgeon turned serial killer trying to reconstruct his daughter's face which has been spoiled in a car crash, cult classic.

Black Sunday
1960. Italy. Mario Bava.
Classic gothic horror tale of a resurrected witch. Has some of that old-school Hollywood flaire, oddly enough, and is generally a very well made film.

The Innocents
1961. UK. Dir: Jack Clayton
Writte by Truman Capote and William Archibald, adapting Henry James' The Turn of the Screw, classic that everyone should have seen, gothic haunted house drama set in victorian England.


The Haunting
1963. UK. Dir: Robert Wise
Haunted House, adaption of Shirley Jackson's The Haunting of Hill House and VERY true to the novel, classic that everyone should have seen about a group of alleged psychics and a researcher looking to prove the existence of ghosts staying in an alleged extremely haunted house for a while. Main character is crazy as fuck and you have no idea what's true and imagined.

The Abominable Dr. Phibes
1971. UK. Dir: Robert Fuest
Extremely influential film with some great style, amazing ideas, great OST by Basil Kirchin and general high recommendation about the titular Dr. Phibes getting revenge on the surgeons that failed to save his wife inspired by biblical plagues.
(2/?)

>>18624209

Let's Scare Jessica to Death
1971. USA. Dir: John D. Hancock
Supernatural Mystery, somewhat haunted house, about a mentally unstable woman and you, the viewer, both having no idea what's going on. Pretty good.

La Cabina (The Phone Box)
1972. Spain. Dir: Antonio Mercero
It's just 32 min, so here's the entire thing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bKkfGG9q32c

The Exorcist
1973. USA. Dir: William Friedkin
Gothic, christian-occult horror about a little girl disregarding all Ouija-etiquette and thus getting posessed by a demon, classic that you already know about and everyone should have seen.

Don't Look Now
1973. UK. Dir: Nicolas Roeg
Amazingly cut film about loss and prophecy known for it's amazing shots of venice, great editing and incredibly long sex scene. Features a midget.

The Wicker Man
1973. UK. Dir: Robin Hardy
A film about christianity versus paganism that really doesn't feel too much like horror if you aren't a puritan, but is great in it's delivery of it's underlying themes nonetheless and known for it's shocking ending. Also, in the context of it's times, it probably was a lot more shocking than it is to our modern sensibilities.

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
1974. USA. Dir: Tobe Hooper
It's just 83 minutes so watch it if you haven't already, visceral and raw slasher, classic that you already know about.

Black Christmas
1974. Canadda. Dir: Bob Clark
THE CALLER IS IN THE HOUSE. THE CALLER IS IN THE HOUSE!
My favorite christmas movie. Starring Margot Kidder who you probably know from The Amityville Horror as a sorority ho. Early Slasher.

The Omen
1976. USA. Dir: Richard Donner
Gothic, christian-occult novel adaption about an american Ambassador accidentally raising the son of the devil. Horror-adventure featuring some of the greatest movie deaths and thick atmosphere.

(3/?)

>>18624213

Burnt Offerings
1976. USA. Dir: Dan Curtis
A family falls apart as they rent a victorian masion over the summer as it literally sucks the life out of them. One of my personal favorites, pretty great.


Invasion of the Body-Snatchers
1978. USA. Dir: Philip Kaufman
Sci-fi, one of the few good remakes there are, adaption of Jack Finney story, partially odd casting choices (Leonard Nimoy, Jeff Goldblum), cult classic with one of the greatest endings in horror history that's probably been spoiled to you already.


Alien
1979. USA. Ridley Scott.
Claustrophobic Sci-Fi Horror classic that you already know and probably have also already seen.


The Changeling
1980. Canada. Dir: Peter Medak
Haunted House mystery, best seance scene I've seen in a film so far, cult classic.


Jacob's Ladder
1990. USA. Dir: Adrian Lyne
Surreal horror-drama about a vietnam vet feeling he is pulled into hell. Partially inspired Silent Hill 2.

Los Otros (The Others)
2001. Spain. Dir: Alejandro Amenábar
You probably know this one already- it's the one with Nicole Kidman and her kids that are allergic to light. Haunted House, mystery, drama, phenomenal twist.

Caché (Hidden)
2005. France. Dir: Michael Haneke
Heavy psychological drama about a family that finds themselves stalked by a stranger, probably the most realistic film on this list.

El Orfanato (The Orphanage)
2007. Spain. Dir: J. A. Bayona
Haunted Orphanage, about mother and child relationship, little kids with masks, alright movie albeit extremely comfy.

Pontypool
2008. Canada. Dir: Bruce McDonald
Technically a zombie film set entirely in a radio station and with an extremely interesting twist as to how the infection works that's based in theories of Roland Barthes, who gets namedropped.

(4/?)

>>18624221

It Follows
2014. USA. Dir: David Robert Mitchell
A thing looking like some Randy follows you until you fuck somebody, causing the thing to then follow them. You have heard of this since everybody's been talking about it and it's very current.

The Neon Demon
2016. France, apparently. Nicolas Winding Refn.
Barely a horror, mainly a film about narcicissm and the high fashion industry made in a more surreal style. Including it because it's generally classified as horror by the mainstream and well, it's pretty good, so that won't do any harm.

I haven't seen the Witch yet.

(5/?)

>>18624229
Azn films:


Jigoku
1960. JP. Dir: Nobuo Nakagawa
A very old-school vision of japanese hell. Starts slow, then takes a sharp turn.


Kwaidan
1964. JP. Dir: Masaki Kobayashi
Supernatural anthology of ghost stories set in feudal Japan. Another classic everyone should have seen and you probably know about. Pretty long.

Onibaba
1964. JP. Dir: Kaneto Shindô
Amazing supernatural drama about war and humanity set in a feudal japanese background.


HOUSE
1977. JP. Dir: Nobuhiko Obayashi
Japanese hippies present a hilarious acid trip to the world.


Cure
1997. JP. Dir: Kiyoshi Kurosawa
Search for a serial killer, focusing on hypnosis. Could also be classified as a psycho-thriller.


Ringu
1998. JP. Dir: Hideo Nakata
It's the Ring. It's probably the best adaption of the first novel in the series, and it's an iconic story. More cohesive than the US-version and truer to the source-material.


Ju-On
I've watched most of the franchise. The ones most worth watching are definitely Ju-On: The Curse (Ju-On 1) and actually Ju-On: The Grudge 2 (Ju-On 4). The general format of the series is a kinda experimental style that introduces characters in meticulously seperated segments who'll interact with the most haunted house in the fucking world (that's my conclusion, not the films) and sooner or later turn into vengeful spirits themselves. Their stories eventually intertwine, though focus is more on spooks than chronological cohesion. 1 gives you the basic story and some of the strongest scenes, but boasts that beautiful made for tv quality, while 4 follows a documentary crew that wants to film a ghost show in the Saeki-house. It's surprisingly good. The worst, and probably most hilarious out of the bunch, is definitely Ju-On: Old Lady in White. It features a demented granny ghost with a fucking basketball.

(6/?)

>>18624241

Janghwa, Hongryeon (A Tale of Two Sisters)
2003. South-Korea. Dir: Kim Jee-woon
Mystery/haunted house/psychological thriller that you probably heard about. A fucked up family takes you on a journey of remembrance. Also known for many shots of feet.

Three...Extremes
2004. JP/South-Korea/Hong Kong. Dir: Takashi Miike, Park Chan-Wook, Fruit Chan.
Anthology film with one short story by each director. Most people find Chan-Wook's segment to be the weakest, but most agree at least the other two are outstanding. Personally, I loved enjoyed them all.

Shutter
2004. Thailand. Dir: Banjong Pisanthanakun, Parkpoom Wongpoom
Subs recommended because everyone has hilarious names. A story about ghost photograpy and the heavy burden secrets place on you. Some jumpscares, amazing twist, and the best known thai horror there is.

Infection (Kansen)
2004. JP. Dir: Masayuki Ochiai
Seems at first like a virus outbreak story in a hospital, but then turns into something absolutely crazy.


Artsy (as in, influenced by artistic movements, requires further research to fully appreciate):

Saló, or, the 120 Days of Sodom
1975. Italy. Dir: Pier Paolo Pasolini. The thread is full of discussions about this and you have heard about it, so I'll just copypaste a summary: Set in the Nazi-controlled, northern Italian state of Salo in 1944, four dignitaries round up sixteen perfect specimens of youth and take them together with guards, servants and studs to a palace near Marzabotto. In addition, there are four middle-aged women: three of whom recount sexual, fetish-centered stories whilst the fourth accompanies on the piano. The story is largely taken up with their recounting the stories of Dante and De Sade: the Circle of Manias, the Circle of Shit and the Circle of Blood. Following this, the youths are executed whilst each libertine takes his turn as voyeur.

>>18624248

Eraserhead
1977. USA. Dir: David Lynch.
A nightmare about a guy who gets his girlfriend unintentionally pregnant and is then forced to marry her and care for the entirely too early born abomination that is their son. Personal favorite.

Tetsuo - The Iron Man
1989. JP. Dir: Shinya Tsukamoto.
Extremely expermental bio-/cyberpunk bodyhorror about a guy who turns into a metal man.

Vargtimmen (Hour of the Wolf)
1968. Sweden. Dir: Ingmar Bergman.
A surrealist psychological gothic drama about a painter suffering nightmarish delusions of the demons of his past.

Amer
2009. Belgium. Dir: Hélène Cattet, Bruno Forzani
Three key moments in the life of a young girl are explored through a striking visual style- offering effective retro-throwbacks to giallo as well as a strong supernatural gothic opening. Strongly recommended.

Begotten
1991. USA. Dir: E. Elias Merhige
An extremely violent and desperate retelling of genesis in a heavily distorted visual style.

Horror-comedy:
An American Werewolf in London
Re-Animator
El dia de la bestia
Tucker and Dale versus Evil
Society
Evil Dead II

Zombie (I don't really watch these):
28 Days Later
Night of the Living Dead
Dawn of the Dead
Day of the Dead
Zombi 3
White Zombie
I walked with a Zombie

bonus points for mentioning the best version of Invasion of the Body Snatchers

Also, watch From Beyond. Same guy that did Re-Animator. I think its better.

>>18597819
one that hasn't been mentioned yet is The Keep.

Slightly cheesy, features a longer beginning and has nazis. But its worth a watch.

>>18624471
Seen that, but it's a strong as fuck 6/10. Really enjoyed it, but I just enjoyed Re-Animator more. That movie just hits a nerve with me, it's one of my favorite comedies.

>>18616394
I could get into zombies version of halloween. If it wasn't for a few things

1. michael being a hulking giant for no reason other than to make him scary(a bad guy doesn't need to be a jason rippoff straight from a comic book to be scary, that's just cheap and reaks or poor writing)
2. the same old meme cast I was already sick of by his second film
3. I also hated the way he turned the myers family into a bunch a trashy degerates

>>18624618
The only thing worse than his characterization of Michael in the first film was how much worse it got in the 2nd one. I know the worst moment comes right at the end but i still nearly shut the movie off because of it. watching the film as a whole is kind of an endurance test, how far can you get into the worst movie ever made by a mainstream director

>>18624618
I agree: Rob Zombie's Myers is more like Jason Voorhees than the old Michael. He's a hulking, rage fueled brute who even hallucinates his dead mother ordering him to kill.
And the white trash backstory is stupid as well, considering that the original Myers backstory was perfect as a catalyst, and making us sympathize with the Bogeyman in a horror flick is a bad move.

I also am not scared by the white trash backstory because that was my childhood, and one should never have empathy with Michael Myers. It's the one consistent thing in his character, he's supposed to be pure evil.

The 80s were the golden age of bodyhorror and slashers. 60s for gothic horror, 00s for asian horror. But the 70s might actually be my favorite.
I've just seen the first Friday the 13th so far, which is around a 6/10, I'd say. I loved how you could never be sure whether the shot was a POV or not, but was seriously let down by how the second half/ending reveal was handled. I'll get to watching the others in the series and keep in mind that VI is supposed to be great, but first, I gotta get Sleepaway Camp, Prom night and both versions of Maniac out of my Backlog.

>>18627431
This is prob ably an unpopular opinion about the series, but I actually think the first two Friday the 13th flicks aren't as good as a decent chunk of the sequels, namely 4, 6, and 7. Moving them from dead serious slashers to something more akin to dark comedies was a great decision.

>best in the series
I'm still torn between 3 and 4. 7 has a very special place in my heart too, even though it was disappointing (as was horror in general during that period). The idea of a psychic girl kicking Jason's ass sounded very promising, and once the chase began it was pretty awesome, but the studio went way overboard on the censoring.

>>18627431
Part one could easily be from a different series altogether. 2 is where Jason (inexplicably) shows up, and kicks off the franchise everyone came to love. He doesn't get his iconic hockey mask until the third film though.

>>18627669
I agree for the most part. I do think the humor was always there though. Times and audiences change though. In the late 70s and early 80s humor was a lot more tongue-in-cheek. Studios, or someone also demanded a lot more plot, which often got in the way of the story. I watched Slap Shot last weekend. The reason I watched it was, well this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iftH6xdkk4g

That's why the movie is appealing at all, and bonus: a better soundtrack. Who gives a flying fuck about Paul Newman's character development horseshit? I wanted to see fucking brawling. Ok, the part where he taunts the opposing goalie was due to character development I guess, and was pretty fucking hilarious. "Your wife sucks pussy!"

Here's an unpopular opinion for you: I thought part 5 was decent. I kind of wish they'd have stuck with Tommy becoming the new Jason. It made more sense than zombie Jason.

Two 10/10s I've recently watched are Hush and Stephen King's Thinner. Hush is especially good as far as modern horror movies go.

>>18623613
This anon restores my faith that /x/ isn't day care for Generation Z.

Caché is by Haneke, same guy who did Funny Games. As underrated and unnerving as they come, but you need an adult attention span.

I'd add Spoorloos, Good Night Mommy/Ich seh ich seh, Inside/À l'intérieur, Them/Ils, and Filth/Sauna.

>>18599357

>>18628034
I agree with you on part 5, but I disagree by saying Zombie Jason wasn't the best. It elevated him from a prominent slasher villain, to being one of the horror monster greats, up there with the Universal monsters, imo.

What does /x/ think about Hellraiser?

>and Nosferatu is defnitely a must-see as wel

True, but no more so than Faust. I really can't decide which one I like the most. Both are nothing short of visually stunning, and considering their age, that is saying something. Nosferatu has a more creepy atmosphere, while Faust is mesmerizing, and almost dream-like. Albeit not Murnau, Metropolis is worth mentioning too.

It's sad that so many people--and it's not just kids either, as there are 70 years olds like this too--will forever turn their noses up to silent films because of their age. Don't get me wrong, I'm glad that film evolved to be colorized, and have sound, but films from the silent era aren't a waste of time. It's a glimpse into a time when film makers didn't have set formulas, but rather were writing the book from scratch as they went. They didn't have special effects experts, millions of dollar budgets, and state of the art CGI, and so they had to make do with imagination, innovation, and whatever materials, costumes props and such they could scrounge up, or make themselves.

Abbot and Costello meet the grift man

>>18628415
I watched the first one for the first time in october and it's probably one of if not the best mainstream horror film that ive seen

>>18628387

It did certainly fundamentally change who the character is. I'd almost say that they really aren't the same character at all.

I guess the reason I look more favorable on Jason from 2-4 (and kinda, sorta 5) is due more to the censorship that came after part 6. Jason Takes Manhattan is probably the most disappointing horror film I've ever watched. It just sounded so awesome, and the trailer looked bad-ass, but then the final cut was toned-way down, and mostly didn't take part in Manhattan. He certainly didn't take it. Even Jason Goes to Hell and Jason X weren't as disappointing to me (they were still overly censored though) because I never expected much from them to begin with.

On the other hand, 3's censoring has become rather infamous. It was more the main actress, than the studio though. Once they cast her, and began filming, she did everything in her power to sabotage the production, and hasn't been at all shy about saying what garbage she thinks it, and horror in general are. The problem was that it wasn't a huge blockbuster film, and once filming began it was more cost effective to deal with her shitty attitude and demands, than to recast the role, and refilm her scenes. In spite of her efforts, and the cheesy 3d crap, it still managed to be very entertaining.

She wasn't the only actor from the series that thought very poorly of it. Betsy Palmer for the longest time talked shit about the series, and it's fans--she actually said that she thought it was a piece of shit from the beginning, and only took the part because she needed a new car. Plus Kane Hodder was the first person to play Jason, that actually loved playing Jason. Everyone before him at best, disliked it immensely.

>>18628415
Watch Hellraiser 1 and 2, they're both greats. For more good Barker films, watch Nightbreed and my personal favorite Candyman.

>>18628498
I agree with the gore aspect, as 7 in particular was ruined by the MPAA. By the by though, have you seen the cut kills from New Blood? They're some of the best in the series.
What you say about Hodder rings true as well. Unlike some of the Jasons before him, exceptions being Ted White and maybe CJ Graham, Kane clearly had passion for what he was doing, which is why he's my favorite Jason and one of my favorite horror icons in general.

>>18628498
Also, fun fact about Jason Takes Manhatten: It was mostly shot in Vancouver Canada, where I live. I pass through the subway station they shot in the movie every time I go to work.

>>18628415
Good horror. Wish that Coil actually got to do the soundtrack though.

>>18599363
It's got talent behind it but it's very abrupt. I like endings where stuff is left unexplained but it could have fleshed itself out for about half an hour more.

There's about 20 minutes of paranormal shit in the film and the rest is two guys arguing about their living arrangements.

Figure I might as well ask in here, can someone give me some good conspiracy/thriller movies? Not necessarily looking for horror, and it doesn't need to be pure UFO.

Yeah, it's loosely based on From Beyond, which Buffalo Duke even mentions in all but name.
>that was also inspired by true events.
And I'm familiar with MKUltra, but I simply just could bring myself to enjoy it. Poor cinematography, pacing, and generic scares (among other issues) made this feel like such wasted potential, considering both source materials just mentioned are ripe for adaption.

i agree with this. the movie had a lot of potential with a lot of moving parts. as you mentioned the lovecraft plot mixed with mkultra and also some number stations references thrown in plus other paranormal nuggets i've forgotten. the problem was poor, sloppy, slipshod execution. it felt like they had only three days to shoot the whole film so they rushed from one scene to the next.

It's mainly a nostalgia trip for fans of the original (of which I am one) and a money grab for a new generation. One or two decent scares, a lot of overacting, an almost identical plot, and very few if any worthwhile additions to the mythos.

Since you already did some lists for art horror, zombie movies etc, I thought a list of important werewolf movies would be nice.

So, if anybody ITT wants to get into werewolves, here we go:

There are three major werewolf themes in popular fiction:
1. The werewolf as the protagonist, shown as the victim of its curse
2. The werewolf as the antagonist, utilizing the curse and "living" it
3. Lycanthropy shown in the context of (female) puberty and a sexual awakening, either with the girl herself becoming a wolf or with her dealing with werewolves.

There's one movie for each of these themes that, in my opinion, either handle it the best or are just among the best werewolf movies in general that happen to fall into the categories:
1. An American Werewolf in London (1981, John Landis)
Two friends from the US are backpacking through europe and, while hiking through Scotland, they get attacked by a large animal. One of them gets killed, the other one survives and gets plagued by visions of his dead friend, who tells him that he was bitten by a werewolf and that he's got to kill himself before the next full moon arises. Top notch horror comedy with the greatest werewolf transformation ever made.
2. The Howling (1981, Joe Dante)
A news reporter who tries to expose a serial killer gets traumatized, experiences memory loss about what happened when she was alone with the killer in a video cabin and gets send to a sort of rehabilitation center out in the country side. I loved the main antagonist Eddie Quist. Based on the novel of the same name.
3. The company of wolves (1984, Neil Jordan)
A sleeping girl dreams various short werewolf stories. The werewolves are mostly just dogs, still a great film.

>>18622061
this. it had much potential, but the end sucked

>>18599261
i really liked thePossession

>>18631804
The greatest classic, though, has to be
The Wolf Man (1941, George Waggner)
Lon Chaney Jr. in his most famous role. Lawrence Talbot returns to his home after spending a long time in the US, gets attacked after visiting some gypsies and turns into a beast by the light of the full moon.

These four movies are what I consider "Werewolf core".

Other movies I'd definitely recommend after you've watched the aforementioned ones:
1. Dog Soldiers (2002, Neil Marshall)
Antagonistic werewolves. British soldiers get into a fight with a pack of werewolves during a special training in the scottish highlands. Very visceral and a lot of fun.
2. The Werewolf of London (1935, Stuart Walker)
Werewolf protagonist. A botanist gets attacked by a mysterious creature while working in Tibet, becomes a werewolf and tries to find a cure. The oldest surviving Universal werewolf movie
3. When animals dream (2014, Jonas Alexander Arnby)
Female puberty. A Danish girl starts to experience symptoms of what appears to be the same disease that turned her mother into a vegetable. Did for the Werewolf subgenre what "Let the right one in" did for vampires: a melancholic coming of age horror story set in Scandinavia.
4. The wolfman (2010, Joe Johnston)
Werewolf protagonist. Probably a little controversial to put it that high in the list, but fuck it. Some special effects are pretty bad but the movie in itself isn't as bad as most make it out to be. There are some reasonable additions to the original, like the scenes in the mental institution, and it has some georgous sets.

>>18631804
>>18631809

where is 'ginger snaps' 1/2/3 ?

>>18631809
Still with me, wanting even more werewolf goodness? Cool. Here we go again! The next ones aren't as good as the others in the list but still very enjoyable:
1. The curse of the werewolf (1961, Terence Fisher)
Werewolf protagonist. It pains me to see a Hammer film that low on the list but it just isn't quite as good, they did much better work on Frankenstein, Dracula and the Mummy. Still, I liked it a lot but can only recommend it to those who really want to get into the genre. Very loosely based on the novel "The werewolf of paris".
2. The beast must die (1974, Paul Annett)
Not a horror movie, but rather a detective story in which the audience has to figure out who the werewolf is. An eccentric millionaire traps a group of people in his mansion. He suspects that one of them is a werewolf and wants to figure out who it is to add a werewolf to his kill-list.
3. Bad Moon (1996, Eric Red)
Antagonistic werewolf. Based on the novel "Thor". A werewolf disturbs the rather peaceful life of a single mother and her son. Includes a battle between the werewolf and a German Shepherd.
4. Ginger Snaps (2000, John Fawcett)
Female puberty. A film about two sisters, social outcasts, who are fascinated with everything morbid. One of them gets bitten by a werewolf and turns into a sex hungry beast. It has a huge fan following and I feel a little bad about putting it so low on the list but the sometimes obnoxious teenage behaviour makes it hard for me to fully recommend it.
5. Late Phases (2014, Adrian Garcia Bogliano)
Antagonistic werewolves. A blind war veteran gets send to a nursing home - there's a full moon during his first night and his dog gets killed. He spends the next month getting prepared to fight the monster. Horrendous werewolf design, which drags the entire movie down but everything else was enjoyable.

>>18631819
So, what else is notable?
Wolf Blood (1925, Oldest surviving werewolf movie)
The werewolf (1913, Oldest known werewolf movie, got destroyed in a fire)
Silver Bullet (Stephen King adaptation. Not a fan of his work.)
Cursed (by Wes Craven. Not even the funny kind of bad, it just sucks hard.)
Wolf (With Jack Nicholson. At parts hilariously bad, basically a werewolf that behaves like Mr. Hyde)
Curse of the devil (Spanish werewolf flick)
Shapes (X-Files episode, S01E19)

In other media:
The curse (from Alan Moore's Swamp Thing Run)

Of course, these are not all the werewolf movies out there, just the ones I think are notable in one way or the other, trying to help people get into the genre.

>>18631817
A little lower on the list: >>18631819
I know that it has lots of fans and that it's a relevant werewolf movie series, I just think the high school setting, the teenage behaviour and so on can be a little off-putting. At least that was my impression when I re-watched it.
