Halloween 1 & 2 are my favorite Halloween-time movies, but you already mentioned those in the OP. So I don't know why I made this post.

absolutely.

Jigoku

Lady Terminator

anyone know of any good trippy/surreal horror movies? older ones preferably (not lynch either)

Are we just saying scary films here or are we talking ideal films to watch with friends on Halloween? Because Don't Look Now, The Beyond and others mentioned would not go down well in that setting.

Halloween 3 pls

Exorcist 3. Ending blows, but the rest is solid.

Suspiria

An american werewolf in london

Beyond

The innocents

A nightmare on Elm Street 3 - the dream warriors

That should cover all your angles.

Should probably add Evil Dead 2 to that list, just because.

Okay, I retract my earlier dismissal of zombie flicks. Dawn of the Dead (1978 original or 2004 reboot, either or both). Shaun of the Dead as well. That was still before all the post-2008 zombie hype.

Not so much a Halloween movie as just a horror movie, the Carpenter's "Prince of Darkness" is fantastic.

I've seen that 1 a few times. Been many years. I recall feeling dirty after watching it. Not gore or anything like that, but something about that movie just left me unsettled when I was younger...might be different now.
