Default Halloween Horror!!

Okay, this is the time of year for horror flicks, what is your favorite kind? The classic, Frankenstien, Dracula and Werewolf? Or maybe the larger monsters like Godzilla, King Kong? Or maybe the more bloodier kind, like 'Night of the Living Dead,' 'Dawn of the Dead,' or maybe the Michael Myers type? For me, I go for the Zombie type! Every year I break out my George Romero movies, the Mt. Dew and popcorn, and watch all 6 of his movies, which includes the re-makes of the 2 I mentioned above. My favorites have to be the original 'Dawn of the Dead' and 'Day of the Dead!

I absolutely love cheesy horror movies! My favourites are the Evil Dead series and anything by Troma Films (but most particularly the Toxic Avenger series and Nuke 'Em High series). I've got quite a collection of zombie flicks (I, too, love the original Night of the Living Dead and its sequels). Basically anything that looks like it was made with a $1.98 budget where you can almost (and sometimes actually) see the edge of the bucket as they throw the stage blood.

Excellent SGT Tibbs!!! Sounds like a blast to me! Don't forget being able to see the strings on the bats/birds, and irritatingly fake high-pitched screams of the "B" Queens, and the axes, knives and other weapons that bend as the bad guy waves them around hehehehe

I don't like the slasher movies. I much prefer scary type thrillers like 'Silence of the Lambs' or 'The Others'.

The Original Wolf man with Lon Chaney Jr. is always good for a laugh. Or the old Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi classics. On a different genre, 'The Fog' and 'The Thing' are good atmospheric movies, i.m.o.

Actually Hrlow2, 'Army of Darkness' is considered a horror movie! Actually, it's considered a sci-fi\horror\comedy! What I find odd is that no one mentioned 'The Shining' Surely, Jack should get at least an honorable mention Just for the heck of it, here is a list of, what some people think, are the best and the worst horror movies http://horrorscififilms.suite101.com...ssion.cfm/4931

Well, Stubby, I couldn't comment on either, because I didn't see them... I don't like slasher movies, or gross stuff. I'll stick with my original! toflmao Jack can get an honarable mention, he is weird anyway!

WHAT???? TeeCee???? You've never seen 'Army of Darkness' If you get the chance, you need to watch it either on TV, or rent it. It's really pretty good and the gore is held to a minimum. It's all there, action, comedy and, of course, the slaughter of the Undead Then again, that's only MY opinion and, granted, you may not like it.

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy.
