PineSong Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 The Omen (1976 version) The Changeling, starring George C. Scott (1980) Obviously, I'm old school and also a lightweight when it comes to horror, but my teens who aren't scared of anything watched The Changeling with me and expected to think it was cheesy but came away saying "WHY DID YOU LET US WATCH THAT NOW WE CAN NEVER STAY HOME ALONE EVER AGAIN?" so it may be cheesy but also...creepy. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Streetwise Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 I don’t mind horror elements, but I don’t enjoy movies where the characters repeatedly make bad decisions, or there is some sort of torture theme. I want a fighting chance for the protagonist(s). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some human error is believable, but sometimes it feels forced In many movies. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnimalNerd98 Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 My wife and I have been on a horror binge for the past several months. I’m going to be looking into some of the movies in this thread that I haven’t heard of before. My personal favorite is a Thai horror-comedy called Pee Mak. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The omen is probably the only one where the protagonists dont have a fighting chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishoutawater Posted October 30, 2022 Share Posted October 30, 2022 im not a huge fan of horror but did enjoy the saw movies and the final destination movies. i watched one with the missus recently called the hunt that wasn't bad at all not as predictable as the genre seems to be in general.

Predator is a horror movie disguised as an action movie. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xXInkedPhoenixX Posted October 31, 2022 Share Posted October 31, 2022 (edited) Horror is a genre I can't really stand. It's not scary to me, and has zero effect. I usually just roll my eyes, lol. I do appreciate a good story and cinematography though, so movies like Black Coats Daughter or good old fashioned special effects (cgi is overdone IMO) that are camera tricks and makeup only like the original Japanese version of Ring (Ringu) or 13 Ghosts (2002) are entertaining. I also love a GOOD horror spoof- like Zombieland or Bubba Ho-tep Edited October 31, 2022 by xXInkedPhoenixX 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tanked Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 I don't think I have a favorite, they all have their moments. When the movie Phantasm was released, the Sentinel drilling into its victims forehead was the first movie that caused me and my friends to jump in our seats. I like seeing some of the gaffes and what people thought was scary in the 30s-50s, ie: The young women is awaken by the wolfman clawing at the window. She sits up, adjusts her nightgown, puts on her negligee, bathrobe, and slippers. Then, she runs to the door crying for help. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
