What are the horror movies that you've really enjoyed enough to watch multiple times?

 

Freddie Vs Jason idk why. It's embarrassing really. But I find Gibb so hot so that helped

Ginger Snaps. It's really my favourite movie of all time. Also Ginger Snaps 3.

The VVitch, absolutely fantastic movie.

 

And I wanna find more.

@Ultra Violet i just recalled this scene from FvsJ

I’m into mood and atmosphere over gore for sure. Possession sounds interesting. I tried watching a similar movie from the 80s a few nights ago called The Entity about a young mom who’s raped and later terrorized by a poltergeist… I just could not

I just watched Hellraiser for the first time, it was so good! Bizarre, interesting, and freaky 

[moonbeam monsoon 1,281]

I was literally just about to put on Hellraiser, can’t believe I’ve never seen it. As a little kid in the video store there was no more iconic horror movie case than Hellraiser

Fucking oh my God. Well I haven't rewatched it that recently 

 

I just loved Gibb in that movie because shes the same access as Ginger in Ginger Snaps. And Brendan Fletcher from GS 2.

I’ve created a list of 31 horror films to watch in October. I spread it across 24 days to better fit my schedule (and I love a good double feature).

The list is a mix of rewatches and new-to-me films  There were a lot of movies/franchises that didn’t make the cut (especially those that I’ve watched recently) like Tremors, The Blackcoat’s Daughter, Puppet Master, Prom Night and many more.

[moonbeam monsoon 1,281]

So many greats on this list. The Exorcist, The Thing, Carrie, The Ring, The Faculty, Get Out, Sinister, oooooo I love October lol. One sincere question, why you going with Scream 4  of all the screams?
 

never heard of Hellbent or Deep Red - I love 70s horror so Deep Red is already exciting to me. But speaking of 70s horror, I started watching Halloween 1978 awhile back and switched to Halloween 2018. I loved the new one and am hoping Halloween Kills is as good

Obviously the first Scream is the best one but I’ve seen that one many times. Scream 2 is also solid, especially the cop car sequence but I just watched it recently. Scream 3 has good elements but I’m not in a hurry to rewatch it. There’s also Scream 5 coming out in January so that’s how I ended up with Scream 4!

 

I just rewatched Halloween 2018 a couple nights ago! It’s not my favorite but it has a lot of good sequences. I’m really nervous for Halloween Kills, I don’t want to go in with any expectations so I’m avoiding all the information.

The cop car sequence is the highlight of Scream 2 for sure! Also I like the campus mood but otherwise there are some glaring issues. You can tell it was a 4 month shotgun from pre-production to release. Scream 3 is all over the place and there’s something about the color correction that’s never sat right with me. Scream 4 I’m probably due a rewatch, haven’t seen it since the theater. Speaking of nervous, Scream 5 immediately sounds like a bad idea to me but I can also see them pulling it off. I hope!

 

Halloween 2018 is definitely not perfect. Judy Greer’s scenes mostly break the flow for me sadly… but in general the atmosphere is just what I need from a Halloween movie

I can definitely see them pulling off another solid Scream entry but I’m also quite nervous.

 

And I totally agree about Judy Greer. Her line delivery in the first act of the movie is not very consistent. I always love the moments in a Halloween film where people are just walking down a street or trick-or-treating- it evokes a very autumnal feeling and I love it.

I’m kinda hoping they kill off Sydney in Scream 5. Like imagine if she was the opening kill?? That would be SUCH a gag. But, then again we saw how that worked w/ Halloween Resurrection, and it was awful

I think it’s gonna be Sydney, Dewey and/or Gale in the opening scene, I don’t see anyone else in the cast list who seems to fit the bill of first Scream kill. But wow Halloween Ressurrection… how was such a bad movie even made?? It surely proves that the quality of a Jamie Lee Curtis performance depends on her director/crew. She and the movie are so SO bad

Halloween resurrection SUCKED. Its only redeeming quality was Tyra Banks having a campy performance, she was kinda hilarious!

Ahhh hey twin! Volta supremacy, one of bjorks most underrated albums (if not her MOST underrated)

[Solar Fields 4,158]

My bar for entertainment is super low. I love most of the movies that people consider bad. The only ones that I really dislike are Freddy’s Dead and Halloween III. 

[bff 2,454]

Does anyone here like the evil dead saga? (not just the remake, but the original trilogy) its so campy and so much fun, i even love Army of Darkness with how absolutely absurd it is
