[Serp]

I'm just asking for peoples top 10... I need to increase my collection and just needed some selections.

[Mockery]

Ok, I gotta ask... why did you like Jack Frost 2 better than the original? The original had much better one-liners, better kills and better production value. The sequel, while still amusing (especially with the mini-Jacks), just doesn't compare to it if ya ask me.

Glad to see somebody else appreciates The Stuff though. Great flick.

[pac-man]

Killer Clowns from Outer Space
The Monster Squad
Jason X
Shaun of the Dead
Army of Darkness
Leprechaun in the Hood
Bride of Chucky
Gremlins
Return of the Living Dead
Anything parodied on MST 3K

[Babs]

Phantasm (Booooooy!)
The Gate, I'm going to have to say Gate 2 is tied for second as well, big deal
Basketcase
Tourist Trap
Dellamorte Dellamore (Cemetery Man)
Street Trash
Tenebrae
Return of the Living Dead
Pieces
Blood Sucking Freaks

[Grislygus]

Fuck horror movies, I'm just in it for the remakes!

Mainly because Jack 2 was worse. Me and my friends had all watched Jack 1. We all got together and were supposed to make a music video for our media productions class and instead we watched Jack 2 because no one had seen it yet. I have great memories of just watching it. The terrible production value(the Skinamax lense.) how the one guy came back with an eyepatch, the part where he froze the entire tropical island, the super soaker with the laser sights and of course the mini jacks.

Here's hoping for Jack 3!

The Stuff is great, I just love the guy in the beginning who thinks it's a great idea to see how it tastes.

If no one has seen Bio Zombie I highly recommend it. I bought it thinking it was going to be garbage and a laugh fest. Turns out it was actually a pretty cool movie.

[TheBigMan045]

no real order but heres my top 10:
Bad Taste
Evil Dead 2
Halloween 2
Freddy v Jason
The Exorist
Shaun of the Dead

Dawn of the Dead - original
Evil Dead 1 & 2
Halloween and Halloween 2
Friday the 13th 4
Dead Alive
Redneck Zombies

[Geggy]

Bubba Ho Tep is a good movie to watch repeatedly.

[electric ninja]

the Blob (also original)
Planet terror
Alien
the Thing

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

The first day I got Bad Taste I must've watched it at least 3 times in a row I was so impressed with it.

[Babs]

Bad Taste is like the only good movie with Harry Potter in it.

[Mockery]

Then you haven't seen the original Troll.

[Babs]

I totally forgot about Harry Potter, how could of I forgotten... and Julia Dreyfus

Harry Potter meets Seinfield, that's all I can think about now. Krammer comes in to see Jerry but instead he finds Sonny Bono turning into a giant pile of green shit and what looks to be George wandering around, sweating, reading a magazine.....naked.

[Kitsa]

1)Ju-on, the V-Cinema release, for sheer creepiness (fuck the stupid Grudge shit)
2)Battle Royale
3)Ebola Syndrome (second only in fuck-upedness to Ichi the Killer, which I don't consider horror)
4)Friday the 13th Part VIII- Jason Takes Manhattan (sentimental value, it's my favorite Jason)
5) Uzumaki (there's one scene that I know damn well is coming and it makes me jump every single time)
6)The Dawn of the Dead remake (with zoombies)/ Shaun of the Dead (tie)
7) Popcorn and Shocker, tied (blast from the past)
8) It (jeebus gods was Tim Curry good, but I can't bring myself to watch it too often so it's hard to call it a favorite)
9) Silent Night, Deadly Night
10) Prom Night 2: Hello Mary Lou

There are some that are warm fuzzies for me and don't quite make the list, like the Ghoulies and Critters series. Also, I'm a purist about my J-Horror and don't consider it all horror, so I left Suicide Circle and stuff like that off.

[TheBigMan045]

wouldnt really call it a horror movie, (Has one or two freaky parts) more of a black comedy but meet the feebles is an extremley twisted movie with puppets. The muppets on crack basically

[Mockery]

My absolute favorite horror movie of all time is John Carpenter's "Prince Of Darkness (http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/prince-of-darkness)". There never has and never will be a horror movie that tops that flick as far as I'm concerned.

That being said, here are some other horror movies that definitely make my favorites list (naturally, I've featured a most of them on the site before in some capacity):

-Phantasm 1 & 2 (absolutely original and manages to be both funny and truly creepy)

-A Nightmare on Elm Street 4: The Dream Master (my favorite in the series)

-Halloween 3: Season of the Witch (such a fun flick and a great concept, you just gotta ignore the whole "it's not about Michael Myers" thing and accept that it's a stand-alone film)

-JAWS (sharks are awesome and any movie that manages to scare people about even setting foot in the water is aok in my book. Furthermore, Quint is one of the all-time greatest silver screen characters)

-Jack Frost (still one of the funniest horror comedies I've ever seen. Totally indie and underrated)

-Silent Night, Deadly Night (another extremely entertaining holiday horror flick that everybody should see. Punish!)

-Dark Night of the Scarecrow (a very creepy made for TV movie that gave myself and many other kids nightmares when they were younger)

-Night of the Creeps (you'll be hard-pressed to find a better movie about alien life forms infecting your brain and turning you into zombies)

-Dead Alive (screw LOTR, this is Peter Jackson's finest and most insanely gory cinematic work)

-Killer Klowns From Outer Space (cotton candy cocoons to store dead humans in? Genuis.)

-Day of the Dead (my favorite Romero flick and Bub the zombie rules)

-The Toxic Avenger (part horror, part comedy, all awesome and as indie as they come.)

-The Blob (the remake in 1989 is an absolute classic and it's extremely over the top with the gore in some scenes)

[Babs]

Excellent choices for Phantasm amazing movies. I know I didn't list Dead Alive or Bad Taste (my favorites) but I love them more than anything. The first Jack Frost is a brilliant decision but it didn't quite make my top ten but never the less it's some classic cheese.

[Kitsa]

The whole "flying silver orb of death" concept really fucked with me as a kid. I saw them in my peripheral vision a lot.

[MarioRPG]

Dead Alive. YES.

[Tadao]

I think the posters and trailers for Phantasm were some of the scariest when I was a kid. It got into my dreams a few times. I wasn't allowed to see it when I was young though. I had to wait till it was on ONtv.

[Kitsa]

My mom had this thing about Children of the Corn. I was forbidden to see it. On my 18th birthday the first thing I did was buy the tape. I watched it and I don't know what the hell she was so afraid of, I thought it was a little silly. Yes, I'm going to watch a movie and then sacrifice my mom to a corn-god.

[Mockery]

Word to the wise: the first two Children of the Corn flicks are a lot o' fun, but after that, the series takes a nosedive.

OUTLANDER!

My cousin's cousin used to call me Malachi when I dyed my hair red because I'm crazy pale too.

[Misdemonar]

MY FAVORITE HORROR MOVIE IS WHEN I GO TO THESE FORUMS.

[executioneer]

haha high five

[Geggy]

I nearly pissed in my pants watching House (original version) and The People Under the Stairs. Couple of hidden gems that are worth checking out if you like horror/comedy movies.

[J. Tithonus Pednaud]

House was cool. I remember it was slightly ruined for me as a kid when Richard Moll proved to be the rotted villain. I was a big fan of Night Court at the time and any horror I was feeling left when I saw 'Bull' in prosthetic makeup.

House II was bad, but campy fun. Sort of in the same vein as 'My Science Project'.

[Mockery]

House is one of the few horror movies from that era that I've only seen bits 'n pieces of. Really need to watch the whole thing.

The People Under The Stairs is such a good film. Seeing Big Ed (from Twin Peaks) run around the house in a gimp suit with a shotgun while shouting "Burn! Burn! Burn in hell!" is absolutely classic. I also remember being sad when Fool died. :(

[Kitsa]

I had really high hopes for the Tales from the Darkside movie, since the intro to the TV series was godawful scary. Instead I was bemused/bored. Although I did like the fact that Debbie Harry and David Johansen were in it.

[pac-man]

I had all but forgotten about that movie. I've never seen it, but now that I think about it I actually remember being scared by the commercial/trailer for it.

[Babs]

House, now that's a move I would really recommend if you haven't seen it yet. Just a different all around style then the rest in the 80's era.

[kidneyboy]

Yeah, I concur on House. William Katt is pretty good when he's not being fried in his tuxedo, and the makeup/fx is awesome!

Just saw Return of the Living Dead, it was good; different than Romero's zombies, but still enough like them where I liked them. The Tarman was fucking great!

[J. Tithonus Pednaud]

Return of the Living Dead is my top fave horror movie. It just captured the 80's style in music and has just the right amount of horror and comedy. Really good stuff.

People under the stairs, I've seen that a few times and for some reason it just never captured my attention too much.

I'm sitting here trying to think of more horror movies with the same tone as House and Return of the Living Dead. The 80's was this weird time for strange and unique horror genre hybrids...like The Texas Chainsaw Massacre Part 2.

[toolz88]

My list in order
Evil Dead 2
Prince of Darkness
The Thing(remake)
Halloween 3
In the Mouth of Madness
Day of the Dead(original)
Slither
Ginger Snaps
Dawn of the Dead(original)
The Stuff

[10,000 Volt Ghost]

I really liked Slither. I didn't think it was going to be good whatsoever. It has an amazing line by Nathan Fillion in it.

Deputy: "Hey, why don't you ever date that female cop?"
Nathan Fillion's char: "Oh, she eat's a boxed lunch."

[J. Tithonus Pednaud]

My list in order
The Thing(remake)


The Thing remake? Did I miss that?

[Mockery]

Well, John Carpenter's "The Thing" was technically a remake of "The Thing From Another World (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0044121/)".

[kahljorn]

slither had some awesome lines in it :( i liked that movie too.

[Mockery]

If you liked Slither, you should really like Night Of The Creeps (http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/night-of-the-creeps) which is basically what it was based on. I'd also recommend checking out Slugs (http://www.i-mockery.com/minimocks/slugs) too if you dig horror movies with slimy lil' creatures that kill everybody in their path.

[J. Tithonus Pednaud]

Well, John Carpenter's "The Thing" was technically a remake of "The Thing From Another World (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0044121/)".

Ya, I knew that. The Thing is one of my favorite movies and I cite is as one of the few remakes better than the original (along with The Blob). I just thought he was talking about some made for TV remake or something that I missed. You don't usually see 'remake' next to The Thing as the title is different.

[Jeff The Ninja]

seeing as the maker of this thread is looking to expand his collection Here's mine.


Zombie (aka Zombi 2, Zombie Flesh Eaters) - Zombie VS Shark in underwater battle and eye gouging with wooden splinter.

Fright Night - Totally Underrated vampire flick that finds the perfect mixture of cheese and good old fashioned movie awesomeness.

Blood Feast - H.G. Lewis is rumored to go to drive-in theatres to grade his work by seeing if any teenagers had to open their doors to vomit. So its pretty much a Given that this movie is pretty gory. Also, Fuad Ramses has wicked eyebrows.

Wizard of Gore - I totally want Montag to perform at my next birthday party, it would rock. Also by H.G. Lewis.

The Toxic Avenger - Violent Superhero flick turned Saturday morning cartoon.

Return of the Living dead - "send more cops"

Sleepaway Camp - A mediocre slasher flick with a fucking disturbing ending.

Guinea Pig 2: Flowers of Flesh and Blood - Vomit inducing Japanese gorefest.

Suspiria - The opening kill alone is enough to propel this to my list, its just so brutal.

Cannibal Holocaust - One of the very best in cannibal movies. Best watched uncut with a bunch of animal lovers for full effect.

You're not stating anything new for this strapping young lad.

[Kitsa]

Guinea Pig 2 has some wacky-ass sound effects. Every time he does something to the lady it plorps or farts. It's hilarious.

I did feel bad for the chicken, though. Why they always gotta kill chickens?

On that note, if you want a horror movie that makes you puke, try Ebola Syndrome. For some reason, the protagonist reminds me of Tadao a little bit. Maybe it's the masturbating with the steaks at the restaurant where he works thing.

[Tadao]

I have been known to love heffers.

Wow,Mockery I totally forgot about Night of the Creeps it's one of my all time. Favorite horror movies from the 80's my bad, thanks for reminding me about that movie now I have to go and watch it.
