although I agree with marf, real life scares me more then most horror movies, so documentaries of genocide and irrational violence get at me a bit more

Waco - The Rules of Engagement was a recent one

Someone told me the other day that "Hollywood" is making a film of Rentaghost (which is just about the weirdest and most improbable event I can imagine (even in a universe of infinite variation)). Surely some kind of biblical signifier that the end of time is nigh.

 

Oh yeah... Ben Stiller is involved. Who is he gonna play... Mr Claypole? WTF?

 

Does anyone else here even know what Rentaghost is?

i do, yeah.

um, so someone told you? maybe it's not true.

Apparently it is. Russel Brand walked away from it and Stiller stepped in.

black christmas - massively underrated.

amnesia: the dark descent - either watch a play-through or better still play it yourself at night, alone with headphones on, better than any movie.

bai

I did play through the entire game: I figured it looked cool so I gave it to my ex gf as a birthday present, knowing she wouldn't have the balls to play it herself, so I would get the chance to play it myself on her better computer - Boy how I regretted that!

classics.

seems like all horror films these days are pastiche.. the 70s/ 80s was a golden era. god almost everything released these days is so fucking lame..

'Insidious' is worth watching if you haven't yet. Astral projection is the main theme. I love it.

Insidious starts well but the second half is complete toss.

Whistle and I'll Come To You looks great, the version of Woman in Black they made for television seems similar so I hope it's as good.

Some good recommendations here. Shutter was horrific the first time I saw it, The Eye is quite fun too. Inside is fucking grim, it's so awesome I lent it to a girl at work and she stole it.

If you like older horror give Night of the Demon a go, Kate Bush is a fan! The Devil's Backbone, The Kill List and The Last Winter are films I have been recently impressed by, and although it's not really a horror but it's one of my favourite films soI feel I must mention The Wicker Man.

coincidence: I started watching it and fell asleep about halfway in. That wasn't the movie's fault though, I was just very tired. On the other hand, I wasn't very thrilled either, and I thought Patrick Wilson was pretty weak compared to his usual level of acting. There was a bit of freehand-camera work going on which made the rooms seem a bit claustrophobic, but then it wasn't really taken all the way and only showed up a few times ... But I'll re-watch from the beginning, maybe I was too tired altogether.

Nah I think you got the jist of it, I wouldn't bother.

Seems to be quite difficult to find a good, recent, subtle, creepy movie. I guess I really am looking for something The Others-esque ...

edit: The Village has roughly the same vibe. Maybe just because it's (apparently) set in old times as well, but I think it's not just that. I like the whole direction. Unlike most people, I like it better than most other Shyamalan movies.

But I haven't gone through my list yet.

Creepy horror films aren't being made at the moment, unfortunately.

... the sad truth, perhaps.

Well, I still got loads of episodes from The X-Files I haven't yet seen. They're good and kinda timeless, in a way. Except the one with that computer virus, that was 90s to the max.

"Legally Blond" is pretty fucking horrifying.

Since the topic has strayed away from purely ghost movies how about...

Rosemary's Baby

Jaws (often gets overlooked when people talk about horror)

Pet Sematary

Although it gets a bad rap I think Paranormal Activity (just the 1st one really, the others are meh) is pretty decent. Stands on it's own well. But I think when most people are used to shock/gore type horror movies(like saw) they no longer have the patience for a movie like this. Hence the negative opinions on it.

The Last Exorcism was alright too.

The Ward was alright.

There's also Cabin Fever, it's sort of new. A fun watch for sure.
