Hello, does anyone else here like horror movies.  I do.  My favourite ones are the movies out of the Child's Play series.  I can remember all the movie quotes in them.  :smile:
I love The Shining, and The Wicker Man. I also liked the Hammer House of Horror series.
The Wicker Man is excellent.
I'm a fan of old Italian horror (I seriously recommend everyone watch "Suspiria") and Japanese stuff.
I have heard Suspiria is great. Not seen it yet though.
I used to get post tramatic stress symptoms from watching horrors until I was about 30 yrs old.  Now I watch horrors over and over.  I do not like gorery stuff with blood and slashing chase scenes.  I like suspense.

I like M. Night Shamalan's films:  Sixth Sense, the Village, Signs.  I also like many more like the Grudge, Dark Water and other Japanese type.  

Suspiria is the one about the ballet school.  That one is good.  

I guess I like horrors so much because the bad people always seem so normal to everyone else.   No one knows their intentions.  That is like how I feel in my life.  Everyone always seems so surprised at some of the horrible things that people have done to me that they do not believe most of it.
horror movies entertain me easily, but at the same time i rarely find horror shows that really blow me away.

i like Signs too (though i dont consider that a horror movie), the sixth sense, the others which is very much like the sixth sense... i havent watched the village yet, but am planning on seeing lady in the water.

PS: the Omen remakes out this summer!
has anyone seen the Butterfly Effect? I love that movie, it's not really a horro movie it's just creepy and kinda freaks you out
I like horror films too. I have seen the Butterfly Effect, but I would not reccomend it to someone who would be extremely upset over the idea of animal abuse.

You know, and maybe this was only in the uncut version, because I saw only the uncut version on DVD. They have this scene where this psycho blonde boy, burns Ashton Kutcher's character's dog to death. The whimpering sounds they use over that scene, are just heartbreaking.

It's just as bad as that scene from The Cell, where they have J-Lo in a closet inside the killer's mind, and she's seeing an episode of abuse he endured. I like The Cell because of the amazing visual aspects they have of the inside of the killer's mind, but that one scene I have to fast foward or skip through.

I've seen Susperia, I happen to have long curly brown hair like the main character in the film. So I think I look like her, but you know..I think she's probaly prettier than me, just because I have self-esteem issues.

I like the Italian horror films that deal with religious issues. Like this remake of The Exorcist, called The Antichrist by them. However, I tend not to get most of Dario Argento's stuff..it just seems to go on forever. It's one thing if you understand the language of the film, but if you have to spend all that time reading subtitles..it becomes rather tasking.

I like Japanese horror films too, even though I think alot of them are beyond weird. Mostly stuff by Takahashi Miike and Shojin Fukui. The stuff by Takahashi Miike is funny, because just when you think you've seen the weirdest thing ever to be put on celluoid, he comes up with something even weirder then that! What an imagination!

Is "the Village" really a horror film? I would have thought suspense, maybe. But it is a really good movie.

Not into horror movies myself, but I do like "Scream" And I saw a picture of THAT mask in an art gallery the other day. Still scary.  :oops:  (Little embarrassed to confess.)

But movies with a good level of suspense are the best for horror.
