that should be the same version i have, the audio is very quiet. not the best rip but it's watchable

picked up first season of true blood today, as well as friday the 13th part 5 (only one i haven't seen)

the xmas remake wasn't to bad I just was expecting more, but there was some decent gore in it

Watched "The Girl Next Door" last night, which to be fair isn't a horror movie, but it was a grueling watch nonetheless.

I have waiting to watch:

Mum and Dad
Storm Warning

My new job pays pretty well so I went on a scary movie shopping spree. I bought the following:

Land of the Dead: 6/10

Day of the Dead: 7/10

Silence of the Lambs: 9/10 (a classic)

Hannibal: 10/10 ( one of my favorites of all time. not boo scary, just disturbing)

28 Days Later: 7/10

28 Weeks Later: 7/10

From Hell: 8/10 (another one that's just disturbing)

My Bloody Valentine: 9/10 (original)

The 9th Gate: 8/10 (much better than expected)

I think that's all of them, might have gotten a couple I'm forgetting.
Going to watch Frontiers soon.

the ninth gate was a great movie

We watched for the 492409202 time the Mummy remake with Brendan Fraiser and while its not super scary like the Karloff verson was it was a great movie.......

**Ozkar** · 07-10-2009, 08:04 AM

I watched "The Happening" last night. It was really bad, just like most people and critics have said.

However, I think that M. Night Shyamalan made a bad movie on purpose. I read a quote from him that said that "The Happening" was a B-movie. I think that he was just trying to attain cult-status by making a silly, laughable movie. He wasn't trying to make another "Sixth Sense".. There are too many obvious scenes and dialog that reek of b--movie quality.

I gotta give him credit for taking a chance and not caring about his reputation...

**BNR** · 07-10-2009, 01:22 PM

just ordered

Outpost
The Signal

I'll watch any zombie movie I can get a hold of

**Purge** · 07-11-2009, 12:30 PM

Finally got around to watching Let The Right One In, and I'm glad I did. Excellent settings, the two kids were perfect, and that ending in the pool made me want to stand up and applaud. Probably the best horror film I've seen since The Devil's Rejects.

I love that movie

**MaskedManiac** · 07-13-2009, 06:18 AM

I watched THE CONQUEROR WORM the other night and for anyone who never saw this GET IT!
Its a 1960's Vincent Price flick where Price burns and tourures people in the 17th century.......kinda sick for the 60's.....

**ss4vegeta1** · 07-14-2009, 11:56 AM

Sup bros, haven't forgotten this thread. Just watched Session 9. Could someone clarify why did they director pointed the camera down when Gordon was on the phone sitting on the log? This movie left me bewildered with alot of questions unanswered.

**stk13** · 07-16-2009, 09:20 PM

I'm a movie whore. Just bought Haunting in Connecticut for 12 bucks, and Seven and The exorcism of Emily Rose for 5 a pop. I think that officially puts me over 40 horror movies.

**BNR** · 07-16-2009, 09:22 PM

saw The Signal 7/10 very different take on zombies, not what I expected

Anyone else seen it? I can't decide whether i liked it or not. I think it'll only be a one time watch for me.

i saw it...forgot the plot twist fukk...but i know i did like it...it's on the level of crash and hard candy

umm no...i think h1 is best...captured the american middle class neighborhood perfectly...

the new one Halloween was a disaster...h2 trailer looks good i hope it's better...

first part was just violent and not "evil"

**Caspahh** · 07-16-2009, 10:36 PM

wow thank you for bumping this thread, did not know it exists

I'm about to put on The Orphanage as a result of some MISCers recommendation.

My state of mind is fairly elevated right now too, so this should be interesting.

that kinda fuked with me for a bit.

if an avi/dvd rip is missing subs you can always find them here (usually):

Ebay. There is not an official DVD release, but there are some pretty good quality copies on DVR out there.

**RavenStorm** · 07-18-2009, 06:18 AM

My friend and I are watching The Toxic Avenger right now.

This sums up our thoughts: ROFLMFAO

I saw this online and the ratings were high. I am so glad I did see it because it had less of a teeny bopper feel compared to Twilight. Just a good foreign film.

**ss4vegeta1** · 07-18-2009, 06:46 AM

Sup bros saw let the right one in the other day. Wasn't bad though I saw the English dub cause I hate reading subtitles. Though I much sure it would have been better with the subs than the dubs. Though still looking for a movie to scare the ****e outta me. I don't know about you guys I love the Argento films. He is really an artist. I saw some of the Mario Bava films too which I also like. Though I mostly watch those movies for the work of art captured on camera. Btw anyone see terror at the opera yet?

Damn I am trying to go through this thread to fish out some good movies. I am not really into aliens or zombies. Though I am getting Holocaust Cannibal Uncut and I did like the Thing. Also some of the Japanese and French horror movies are getting alot of attention in the online community. They are really good, some of them. Though if it comes to getting creeped out I think one trying to fear themselves comes from within. Like some of the scenes from the movie It.

**Purge** · 07-18-2009, 05:01 PM

Don't you mean Cannibal Holocaust, ss4vegeta1?

Opera was Argento's last good film, IMO. The peephole scene is sheer brilliance.

**Valenzuelatech** · 07-19-2009, 01:08 AM

Last house on the left:
6/10
the rape scene was not as shocking as I thought it would be.
The film feels like a lame version of Eden Lake.

My Bloody Valentine 3-D:
3/10
God awful acting, Incredibly predictable story line, I was bored the whole way through, what a waste of time.

Let the right one in:
9/10
Dangerous but Innocent yet Strangely Romantic, This film shows that subtlety has a place in horror.

Movies old school way of promoting abstinence as oppose to premarital relations.

Yep typed too fast there.

**doofusdave** · 07-20-2009, 05:49 AM

Watched "The Haunting in Connecticut" last night. I enjoyed it pretty well even though pg-13. It's a good jump scare movie w/ just a smidge of gore here and there. Nice overall creepy mood throughout, too.

8/10

Dead Silence is up next...

Good set pieces and lots of creepy ventriloquist dummies, but not much else.

Boo! Oh well, can't win 'em all!

I'm at the point now where i'm just adding movies that are even remotely appealing to me 'cause I've seen so many, ya know?
"The Prowler" releases tomorrow, so hopefully I'll have that this week, too.
