It's Halloween, so what's your favourite horror movie?

[Meade's Ball]

Oh. I should add that I am off to see, tonight:

This Halloween, John Carpenter will perform – live and in person – a musical retrospective of his horror soundtrack work, his debut studio album Lost Themes, plus brand new compositions.

I mentioned this to a chap at work, and he said "Who's that?", before remembering him and saying "He's that guy that directed Vampires. Rubbish."
Yes, that is the film he is most famed for.

The Singing Ringing Tree. Probably why so many folk my age are wary of dwarfs to this day.

 

[StonehamPark]

Poltergeist
House of a Thousand Corpses
The Blair Witch Project

Not sure if this is classed as a horror, but what was the one where the women was inside her house and she phoned the police, only for them to ring back and say they have traced the call and he is in your house , jeeeeeez, got it:

When a stranger calls, probably a thriller but for me at the time ....................

Can anyone recommend a genuinely scary horror film? Haven't seen a film that actually made me jump since I watched the Japanese version of the Ring ages ago...

There aren't any. I found the Jap Ring very dull.

I think I'm the only person on the planet who actually liked the much maligned remake of Carpenter's The Fog.

Have never bothered watching the remake due to the AWFUL reviews. One 'horror' film I have seen recently and enjoyed, and actually found a bit creepy was The Orphanage, had never got round to watching it but it lived up to the hype.

Just remembered It Follows, from last year. That was a good recent one.

Lust for a Vampire. Purely because of Yutte Stensgaard.

Another vote for The Omen series but without Omen IV ( that one was utter tosh ).

The Orphanage ( not to be mistaken with The Orphan) is pretty good but not truly horror and there are subtitles to read.
