Aw hat your favorite horror movie / cult classic

I don't watch too many horror movies, but what about "The Omen"? It's a lot about the music for me.

I don't watch Horror movies.. there is enough 'horror' in real life..

What's an "Aw hat"?

Can only ever be THE EXORCIST.

this list won't be complete without the rocky horror picture show

Favorite anything is subjective.
All relative to your current existence.
To attempt to select one film, song, band, producer, etc is futile.
Favorite is subject to change at any time.

I watch around 6 to 8 movies per day.
I'm disabled and homebound and I have a lot of movies.
There are some which are good anytime and there are some I shut off within 5 minutes.

Having seen so many movies it would be a very long list to try to list all that I really like.
Even if I were to try to list the movies that always capture and hold my attention would result in over 100 movies.

Trying to limit it to 5 films is very difficult.
Plus, those 5 films change according to my mood.

Here are 5 horror films I think are worthy of watching:
(In no particular order)

Altered (2006)
R | 1h 28min | Horror, Sci-Fi, Thriller | 20 July 2007 (Italy)



Forever damaged by their stint as the scientific subjects of hostile alien creatures, a trio of alien-abduction survivors -- Otis (Michael C.

After wounding a violent alien in the woods, the three drag its dying body to the home of reclusive fellow abductee Wyatt (Adam Kaufman), barricade themselves in and prepare for the worst.

see what I mean, I could go on and on with movies I really like.
I refuse to even try to name just one favorite above all others.

Love, love, love horror

Especially 80s splatter gore when FX where just perfecting

Also love mind twisters

Although a bit talkie, talkie would recommend..... Predestination ethan hawke not the daft sandra bullock one

And bizarre.... Love object


Never watch the Serbian film.. Some things are not to be!! Even I won't!!

To everyone
It's never too late to be the person you were supposed to be
X

The Shining, with Jack Nicholson. My all time favorite.

You can't go far wrong with the cult classics of "The Unnameable" and especially "The Unnameable Returns". Two of the best realised Lovecraft inspired films ever.

Yeah, Just watched them in Shocktober. The Randolph Carter character was unique. These two movies are Shocktober staples.

Its difficult to find horror movies at that level anymore.

A little gem I found starring Wil Wheaton, which is based on the short story "The Colour Out of Space" by 'H. P. Lovecraft' titled The Curse (1987) aka The Farm (1987). Critics tore it apart and it got low ratings but compared to the crap being made now, its rather good.

In the Mouth of Madness (1995) with Sam Neill and Event Horizon (1997) also with Sam Neill are also good movies. Dagon (2001) still creeps me out.

Come Play (2020) was okay
Unhinged (2020) had some intense moments
Sea Fever (2020) had potential but was missing something (I actually thought the creature was going to be a Cthulhu)

There's very few horror movies recently that I can watch the whole way thru.
Bad production values, bad story or looks like it was made by high school kids. Most of them are not even B movies. But, I keep them in case I want to have fun making fun of it.

HUGE horror fan! My favorite slasher is Freddy Krueger and I can't just choose one horror movie as my favorite lol.

Drag me to hell
I got lots of horror movies I watch but this is an old horror movie I did enjoy a lot

Drag Me To Hell is pretty intense.

Final Destination,Wrong turn,the hills have eyes,i spit on your grave 🤩

It’s Alive:, From Dusk to Dawn:, w/ George Clooney, Cape Fear w/ Nick Nolte

I like "The Purge" and it's carry ons. The concept is relevant to how how ****ed up society is

All Dario Argento's movies (thrillers and horror)...
In Italy the Exorcist was considered rather funny to be honest... head turning that way made people laugh!

The Exorcist was a hard movie to watch, something about being possessed by a evil entity is very disturbing to me. I watched it when it first came out. That was enough ! No laughs coming from me.

^^^ This ^^^

Though the 2006 remake is pretty lame, imo
