I'm not really into blood n gore. Apart from the saw movies, but was more the motives behind the saw movies.
I love, weird, films that make you think. Although Eden lake is good I also enjoyed, the OP,s choice. Not seen a really good horror for a long time! They are my faves.  |

Horror is my most favourite genre of film, not so much teen slasher type but the ones with a proper story to them, where they are hauntingly atmospheric and really get your own mind working overtime |

The Exorcist, The Shining, The original Nightmare on Elm Street, The Omen are all up there as far as horrors go.
The Conjuring was also pretty good I thought. |

Recently I'd have to say occulus which was surprisingly good and quite a clever story (which is quite unusual for the genre) and we also really enjoyed the evil dead reboot (despite not wanting to - the original trilogy is an all time favourite), make sure to watch yo the end of the credits btw  |

I can't watch hostel without freaking out. Also the grudge is one I'll never watch again!
I know its only a 12 (or at least it was when I saw it in the cinema) but 'the hole' creeps me out!! |

Hostel is creepy not just for its gore, but because the idea of sick creeps paying to torture and murder people is not only plausible but probably happening somewhere in the world as we speak.
The Paranormal Activity series is good for tension and sudden frights. Old 70s and 80s horrors like Halloween and The Fog are still creepy, while Phantasm scares the life out of me.
Hmm... Wolf Creek, horrific because most of its worst parts are based on real killers. Also, try Lovely Molly - really creepy. |

"Salems lot film gave me the creeps and nightmares!"
Saw that when i was at school and it scared the hell out of me, also when i was a teenager, one of my friends had a pirate copy of the texas chainsaw massacre, it was banned as a video nasty back then and gave me the creeps.
"The Thing" with Kurt Russel was pretty scary aswel when i first saw it, special effects in it still look amazing by todays standards. |

I love horror, but have to find one that scares me.
Recently I've watched The Conjuring, The Possession and Let The Right One In. All good in their own way.
I love Pan's Labyrinth, The Devils Backbone, both Guillermo del Toro films. He more recently did The Orphanage, all are subtitled films, but very atmospheric, and a little freaky if you are susceptible to that sort of horror.
Above all, my favourite is The Exorcist. It has a brilliant story behind it, the prequel to it is also really good too, just not as good as the original.

My favourite horror films of all time are The Shining, The Thing and Alien
American Werewolf in London is probably the best comedy horror. Favourite slasher is either the original Halloween or the original Nightmare on Elm Street.
The horror film which has affected me the most though is probably a french film called Martyrs. It wasn't scary, but it was extremely upsetting. One of the three films I wished i'd never watched haha.
Some good horror films which haven't been mentioned yet are The Descent and Rec 1 and 2. |

I've read the books. They are brilliant. Not sure how it will translate to TV though. Who's making it? |

Films and documentarys on real serial
Killers haveing seen the documentary
And film on american serial killer
John casey and speaking on police
Interview after his capture and
Discovery of his gory basement
Where he lived along with murdered
Young men In his loft also, during
His Interview he showed no emotion
Whatsoever at the time In 1978 Makeing
Him one of the biggest serial killers
In history and goryiest thou since in
Russia there Is one guy who has passed
him with murders now behind Iron bars
both of these guys would make the Hardest detective cringe I don,t think
They have made a film on the russian guy yet perhaps to early still for lost Loved one,s etc to face up to that
But being in russia there may be rules
In place to prevent to much Imformation
Going out censorship rules. |

The third ones decent, and the fourth one in the terms that it's REALLY 80's haha and it's got the most vivid dream sequences .
But the first one is the best by far, I got to see it in the cinema last Halloween when they did a re-release. Was such a great way to spend Halloween.
...all this talking about it has made me wanna re-watch it now haha. |

I don't like blood and gore films particularly and I've never fancied watching the Japanese horrors.
I like ghost, possession type ones, they really frighten me. I am still terrified of the exorcist and paranormal activity scares me |

The entity
Halloween is a classic

I agree; a little gem of a British horror film.
I'm going to suggest:
The Cabin in the Woods (don't read the synopsis, just watch it)
Phantasm (a cult classic)

I enjoyed Cabin in The Woods. Not least because of the yummy Chris Hemsworth. Bit a really well played out film. |

"Human centipede is fucked up gross! The sequel not as good but even more fucked up!
You won't be pleased there is apparently a third one then lolIf you want "fucked up gross" try and get your hands on a copy of (A Serbian Film),really sick fucked up film  "
A Serbian Film is a great film. Certainly not for the faint hearted. Not a horror though (although some of the acting can be described as such), it just plays on every human instinct to protect. |

I can't watch horror.. They worry me!
Well the people that made them worry me.. The fact that people are sat, drinking a mug of tea, munching on haribo, planning to pick the kids up while dreaming and writing up the most awful plans of torture and murder just like it's normal scares the crap outta me

If anybody has a PC I just played a game called "five nights at Freddy's"

The scariest games played. I recommend it to any gamers out there. |

I assure you that people making most horror films aren't going in with the idea that they want to put something sick and depraved on screen. It's the same mentality that people who design roller coasters would have.
You think, what's the best placement for 'this scare'. Is this one near the beginning a small one or do we drop them into the deep end with a huge one.
It's all designed for the audiences entertainment. That's why horror films are so popular, they're safe scares. You see this horrible stuff but you know it's not really happening. It just gets the blood pumping and the heart racing for a small period of time. Then you go back to your day to day life |

We love all three.
Last watched The Shining at 2am after completing the Midnight Ghost Walk at The Stanley Hotel, Estes Park, Colorado where Kubrick filmed the bar scene.
No ghosts, but then we retired to the Library, where The Shining is screened on a loop, and consumed large quantities of Tequila.
If you are ever in Estes Park, Ed's Cantina serves amazing Mexican food; a great place for brunch.
Favourite recent horror film; The Battery.

I was gonna send you this in a message but couldn't lol so i'm hoping you return to this thread again.
Thought you might appreciate this link to 2 videos that are about how impossible the hotel in The Shining is and it's intentional. Very creepy, makes watching the film even more off putting than it already is!
http://badassdigest.com/2011/07/26/the-impossible-layout-of-the-shinings-overlook-hotel-kubrick-wanted-to-mess/
Also this video about what could be in the elevator. I think it's pretty sound http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t7-GKHM5HZ8 |

"I love horror and gore, nothing seems to scare me though
Last one to give me goosebumps was woman in black, don't know why, but it did "
Same here, don't find horror scary at all, yet Woman in Black made the hairs stand on the back of my neck. At the time I wasn't sure if it was Radcliff trying to be a man and still expecting him to pull a wand out and go 'Hocus Pocus'!
But the book also has the same effect on me, as does the theatre production. Not scary, unsettled is maybe more accurate. |

American werewolf in London
trick r treat
switchblade romance

I hate films that use 'jump-scares'. I remember when horrors made you genuinely scared without a cop-out 'jump-scares'.
I'm hoping that one day, there'll be VR horror films. |
