Guest Risk Report post Posted April 30, 2002 What are the best horror movies? You decide, only no sequels allowed. My picks are, in no order... Friday The 13th Psycho Halloween Scream Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted April 30, 2002 Why can't Evil Dead 2 be included? It's just as good as the original and depending on who you ask it's better then the original. Also you can't use the "it's not a horror movie because of the comedy factor" reasoning...because you included Scream. Ok now a quick run down of some of my favorites which i consider some of the best horror movies. Not including any old classic since i can't remember enough right now and i don't want to forget one. Texas Chainsaw Massacre Dawn of the Dead(i don't label this as a sequel it could've been a stand alone movie) Night of the Living Dead(b&w) Carnival of Souls(original) Suspiria The Exorcist Evil Dead II(i already said why this should count) Halloween Hellraiser Nightmare on Elm Street In The Mouth Of Madness Phantasm The Abominable Dr. Phibes Theater of Blood Return of the Living Dead(it's not technically a sequel) Candyman(i liked it so sue me besides Tony Todd rules) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest ArkhamGlobe Report post Posted April 30, 2002 Suspiria Night of the Living Dead The Shining Halloween The Thing The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (yes, it is supposed to be spelled like that, watch the opening credits to the movie and see) Re-Animator The Wicker Man Witchfinder General The Haunting (1964 version, not the remake shit) The Exorcist The Hills Have Eyes Anguish The Evil Dead In the Mouth of Madness I'm tempted to say Prince of Darkness, but I haven't seen it in a long time. The Horror of Dracula The Return of the Living Dead Could I name sequels, I'd name: Evil Dead 2, Dawn of the Dead and Inferno. That's all I can think of off the top of my head, if I think of some more I'll post them. EDIT: I can't believe I forgot Psycho and Freaks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest El Satanico Report post Posted April 30, 2002 Inferno Inferno is technically a sequel. It was the second movie in Dario Argento's unfinished "Three Mothers" trilogy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest converge241 Report post Posted April 30, 2002 Blair Witch 1 Evil Dead 2 Seven Doors Of Death In the Mouth of Madness Event Horizion (partially, just for a couple of scenes) The Shining (the original, as if that needed to be said) Session 9 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted April 30, 2002 avoiding movies which have already been mentioned... Cemetary Man The Dead Next Door Nosferatu The Omen Alien Pet Semetary Silent Night Deadly Night (it really has good character development) and I'll second Candyman, since a lot of people dont agree Im sorry, but theres no way Scream should be one, it almost single-handedly destroyed the horror genre Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted April 30, 2002 I pretty much agree with everyones picks (except for Scream) so I won't bother listing them. The other horror flicks that I really enjoyed that one has mentioned are: The People Under the Stairs Razorback The First Power Just Before Dawn Only one of those is on DVD (The First Power), hopefully more will get released later. Pretty well EVERY Wes Craven movie is on DVD, so why The People Under the Stairs isn't is a mystery. I guess someone hates me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Report post Posted April 30, 2002 Oops, sorry about the typo, I meant "no one" has mentioned. Btw, one of my favourites that I forgot to mention was Demons. I love that movie. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
