I just really fucks with the OG monster movies like Nosferstu and Frankenstein plus the (hot take alert) SUPERIOR sequel, Bride of Frankenstein

Frankenstein, Bride of Frankenstein, and Son of Frankenstein is the greatest Horror Trilogy ever. And yes, Bride of Frankenstein is superior in every technical aspect.

 

[Chris]

There's some good OG monster movies, but I doubt if you were just including those, they would fill up a majority of your top 100.

True but I think they would be in upper tier at least, its hard for me to make lists lmao I'm better at just talking about what i like

 

[Kross Rhodes]

70's was peak Giallo and Supernatural gothic horror. You have movies like Deep Red, Suspiria, Dawn of the Dead, Friday The 13th, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, It's Alive, The Omen, The Exorcist, Jaws, Alien, etc coming out around the time and then you have the super obscure horror hits like Last House on The Left, The Sentinel, Black Christmas, Phantasm, The Hills Have Eyes, and When A Stranger Calls.

Don't lump Friday the 13th into the 70s. All 8 of Paramounts films were in the 80s.

70s was great for Italian horror, but I was mostly meaning US and Canadian films. I'm sure there's still good horror overseas.

I also wasn't discounting the 70s, just asking why you were discounting the 80s.

A lot of 80's films kinda follow the same formula as each other and at times blend together.

If you wanted, I could give you my personal favorite five films of each decade.

 

[King Kota]

No DP but I wanted him to be inflicted and that the fiend was a affliction like him going round backstage as new bray talking to himself not wanting to be that guy type.

Is exorcist a horror movie?

Treat it more of a thriller or even a religious movie.

But, that's what Chris and I were saying. It doesn't need to be complicated.

Give me a killer with a mask and have him or her slash up teens.

Did you watch the Fun House segment? Bray does like Finn and IS conflicted, but the Fiend got to remove the Finn.

Thriller's are designed to create tension and suspense. Horror Movies overlap into Thrillers more often than not.

 

[Deezy]

Reigns still more of a priority than these two

 

[King Kota]

also my fav horror movies either have twist or really good villians

Jason just a slasher

scream it was more phycological

SAW etc.

I mean I am pretty much a fan of horror in general.

I just go by whatever wikipedia says bc genres blend into each other too much and i don't wanna get into that debate lmao

You know I'm a big fan of Scream. It created a short term boom period in the late 90s and early 2000s.

 

[Deezy]

I grew up on horror movies.....figured out the formula and ruined it for myself....I know when every jump scare and fake out to jump scare is happening. Know all the tropes and cliches.

 

[King Kota]

Best Horror movies are the ones that don't need to show you the scare but fucks with your head. Jump scares shit like that all great but the ones that break your mind make you question everything .
