Not sure if I'd say it was my favourite horror movie but that last movie to really creep me out on a psychological level was Seven.
The ending where you know whats in the box but are hoping your wrong.. It was great!
I don't really like horrors, tend to watch them through my fingers.
But the one that did freak me out was The Fog.

I remember watching the Fog from behind a cusion, it's a very scary movie especially if you watch it alone on a dark night, your imagination can play tricks.
Still think of that movie when its a foggy night. _________________ Sylvester
Hi, like the posters here I like the Fog, but really the only horror for me is Medievel Dead 3 - Army Of Darkness, but I suppose its the humour not the horror that attracts me.
Do you know what movie they nicked that saying from ?... The Day The Earth Stood Still, if you remember they would say "Gort, Klatu Verata Nictu" and then tell him what to do.
First one that springs to mind is Dracula: Prince of Darkness. It was Christopher Lee's second film as the Count, and starred a number of other Hammer regulars. I actually think this is a better film than Hammer's version of Bram Stoker's novel, as the story is perhaps more suited to a film.
Another one is James Whale's iconic and heavily influential Frankenstein, made by Universal in 1931. This was the film that gave Frankenstein's Monster the look that we're all familiar with today: Flat headed, bad suit, badly stitched, bolts in the neck. It also popularised the idea of the monster being created by electricity - a concept not mentioned by Mary Shelley. The follow-up, Bride of Frankenstein, is one of those rare sequels that stands up to its predecessor.
However, my modern day favourite must be Sleepy Hollow. Not only is it a creation of the Holy Trinity of Depp, Burton and Elfman, it also has a wonderful supporting cast - Michael Gough, Ian McDiarmid, Geoffrey Jones, Casper Van Dien, Christina Ricci, Richard Griffiths, Michael Gambon, Ray Park, Christopher Walken, Martin Landau, Miranda Richardson, Lisa Marie and Christopher Lee. To top it all off, there are loads of nods to Hammer and Universal films. Although the story has been criticised for taking very little from Washington Irving's story The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, it still stands out to me as a brilliant film.

Got say I don't Have a Favourate horror films. I have horror films that I am not too keen on, but love nearly all horror's in Genral.
recomendations for those who have not seen it - Rob Zombies Halloween!!! Excentlent film, changed slightly, but much more of a story line.
Try to avoid two films that are out on d.v.d 1st one Hard Candy - Watched it last night. Sound pretty good on the cover but unfortunatly tunred out to be the biggest pile of cow dung I had ever come across. The only interesting part of the film was when the girl castrates a bloke. Apart from that very dull and very boring. 2nd on my hit list is a french film called THEM. Is based on a true story. Now you have to be carefull when watching this because you can think it's a cool paranormal film. It starts out very well and most of the way through the film you think to yourself 'Yeah it's pretty good` Then about twenty minutes to the end it just gets pants. I wont say what happens because some of you may want to watch it. Great start - dissapointing endding.
By the way - Can anyone tell me how you all got your little pictures to identify who you are? Cheers thanks.

Not to be confused with the 50s classic creature feature, Them, which centres around an army of huge ants terrorising America. Good film. _________________ "It's ok to be different, it's good to be different, and we should question ourselves before we judge others." -- Johnny Depp
Totally agree with you about Hard Candy. Could have been a good movie but was pants.
