Horror Marathon

Post by Positive A »

Hi.

So me and some friends have been watching AMC's Friday the 13th Fear Fest they've got going on. We gots to thinking that, in the coming days, we would each pick a scary film and do our own mini horror marathon.

So, ye film gurus of tha P, I come to you. What, in your valued opinion, is some shit that:

a) people potentially haven't seen/heard of
b) will make people wet themselves on my plush furnishings

Help me. Plz.

Apparently Spartan doesn't even remember his own preparedness for stuff like this. :)

Anything really. So vague that I wouldn't know where to start.

That said, I read the thread cash linked to. Not so much into the fetish type shit (at least I don't think so...). "Martyrs" has always intrigued me. Would that be a decent choice? I never thought of it as horror though...

I guess what I'm looking for is mindfuckery...

Favorite horrors of recent memory:
Let The Right One In
Outpost
Cold Prey 1&2
Dead Snow
Black Death
The Mist (hate hate hate the ending but fucking amazing up to that point)
The House of the Devil
Antichrist
The Descent
Audition
[Rec]

probably forgetting a few but these are all well worth your time

Martyrs is indeed a mindfuck movie and it isn't a fetish movie.

In any case, I found the following movies quality:

Strange, I thought the movie was terrible until the ending, which kind of made the movie worth it.

Noroi is ridiculously creepy. Probably the best found-footage horror. Actually it is with certainty. Kario (Pulse) is the best Japanese ghost-movie (at least in modern times), so proceed with that if Noroi manages to spark an interest in j-horror.

I will revisit Halloween 1 & 2 in sucession, when I get an evening off. I agree that #4 is a cracking 80's horror, Spartan.

Positive A, have you been watching any of these movies?

I played Audition for friends the other night as I'd seen it before. Still love that movie.

We watched "The House of the Devil" which was great.

We also watched "The Thing", "Halloween" and some others. I have most of what's been recommended and we will soldier through a grip load on the 31st.

Gonna check for that Noroi.

This is a fucking horrible movie. Shitty writing, acting, and CGI. A waste of time. Stay away, Pos.

I thought it was a refreshing change from today's run of the mill indie horror flicks.

So I've been working my way through my Halloween films and intentionally leaving Carpenter's classic as last. Finally put on my old Halloween DVD and the disc wouldn't play, on top of that my mask broke last night. FML!

Time to upgrade those films to Blu-Ray!
