Vyce Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 I have another one. "Tetsuo - the Iron Man". It's not really a horror flick (it's very, very bizarre, though), but it's incredibly gory and graphic and it really unsettled me. The first five minutes in particular, where the metal-phile slices his leg open and inserts that screw, and we cut to a few days later when he takes off the bandage and the wound is all infected and crawling with maggots. Totally cringe-worthy.
pochorenella Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 Selma Blair, DeRay Davis, and Rade Serbedzija have signed on for roles in John Carpenter's "The Fog." Tom Welling and Maggie Grace are already set for the film. The film is set on the coast of a Northern California town where a ship sank years ago amidst a thick, dense fog. The ghosts of the doomed ship then begin terrorizing the residents when the fog returns 100 years later. Credit: Hollywood Reporter Damn! Didn't I just mention this movie? Could this be a remake of sorts? Sounds very much like that flick I saw years ago.
Nighthawk Posted March 18, 2005 Report Posted March 18, 2005 It is. The original Fog (1980) is rather well known. You shouldn't have a problem finding it again if you're so inclined.
Corey_Lazarus Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Texas Chainsaw Massacre has the most intense final 20 minutes ever capture on film, IMO. The Evil Dead is quality for creating tremendous amounts of suspense, and if you watch it with an open mind in a dark room - alone or with people that haven't seen it before - it can get to you. Personally, I felt that Alien was terrifying the first time I saw it (though I was 7).
Guest El Satanico Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 So that movie isn't about killer Fog? No, the fog is just a cover for the real horror. I enjoy the original, but I'm looking forward to this remake. If it's done correctly it wouldn't have much trouble surpassing the original.
Guest Agent of Oblivion Posted March 19, 2005 Report Posted March 19, 2005 Was the fog that turned people inside out ever a movie? I remember the story from an old LP of Arch Oboler spooky radio stories I had. Years later I saw the simpsons reference it on a halloween episode, but figured the original idea was too obscure to be referenced, so there might be an intermediate point.
Ravenbomb Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 Evil Dead (especially because I didn't know there were sequels when I first saw it) Halloween Dawn of the Dead special mention: Zombi 2. Zombies always did scare the fuck out of me. This movie in particular, with the people being unarmed until the end, the music, and the very end, scared me for a while. I don't have it as one of the above three because watching it now, I don't even see how I thought the end was scary. It's even kinda funny how New York has the normal amount of traffic even in a zombie apocalypse
Guest Coffey Posted March 20, 2005 Report Posted March 20, 2005 Jaws Alien The Shining Phantasm scared me when I was a lot younger too. The Tall Man was creepy.
