Favorite Horror Movie

[Kunochan]

I love lots of horror movies, especially the three original "Evil Dead" movies. My favorite bad horror movie is "Manos the Hands of Fate"—it's a must see, but watch either the MST3K or Rifftrax versions. Watching it unriffed would be interminable.

For a great double-feature, watch "Best Worst Movie," the documentary about the making of "Troll 2," and then watch "Troll 2."

But as for my actual favorites, I love "The Quatermass Experiment," and Tobe Hooper's movie inspired by it, "Lifeforce."

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned The Human Centipede!!!

Perhaps we've all collectively repressed that particular memory!

I like The Human Centipede 2. The first is actually quite tame considering the premise. The Human Centipede 3 is supposed to be terrible so I haven't watched it. There are nastier horror films then The Human Centipede films eg Martyrs, Murder Set Pieces and a Serbian Film. I would recommend Martrs and Murder Set Pieces if you like your horror nasty. But a Serbian Film is clearly just for shock value and is quite a poor film.

Thanks for the tip, John!

To be honest, I'm a total horror movie lightweight who'd likely pass out at Martyrs, Murder Set Pieces or A Serbian Film.

I tend to prefer the more low-key psychological chills to out and out gore.

Myself and a pal watched the three Pede films out of perverse curiosity.

I can't say I was really a fan, but I've always thought it'd be the ultimate Halloween party costume.

Just a bit of bandaging and a couple of friends that you're extremely physically comfortable with.

Show stopping!!!!

Fair enough Ms Diddles.

I agree though that it would be a great Halloween costume.
