Okay, what are your top 3 scarrrrrrrry favorites?













Posted by Prince_Pisces
Yes, they are worth watching
I dunno, I am not really into the gory stuff like Hostel and all that, so maybe I will think about it around Halloween.
Do you like the Stephen King movies? Misery, Dead Zone, Cujo, Maximum Overdrive, etc....

I crave 'mental stimulation' so I've kind of outgrown the horror genre, though I was nuts about it as a kid. Horror movies these days are not exploring our innermost fears, instead they are trying to convince you that you are scared by making you jump in your seat. That's not horror, that's just a cheap trick! And above all, they are too sadistic for my taste.
When I think of the movies that scare me the most, isolation and conspiracies are common themes. Having everyone against you has always been one of my favourite nightmare scenarios, I think I was the only kid in my circle who was truly taken by Rosemary's Baby, while most other kids my age would have defined it as drama due to the lack of blood and guts.
Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1977) and Polanski's The Tenant (1976) are two examples of horror movies that I actually find scary. Nightmare on Elm Street (1984) also kept me up at night. There's something creepy about a monster coming after you with a big grin on his face. Also, the murders are truly bizarre, that's always scary. And let's not forget that soundtrack. Wes Craven sure knew what he was doing back in the days.

Ah, I see. Maybe that's why you're such a smart lady 😄
For those like you who are into psychological artsy fartsy flicks, Possession (1981) is my standard recommendation. It's some sort of a DNA crossing between a horror movie and relationship drama.
