So people let’s have your suggestions for the best horror film to watch and reason why??

For me hardly any horror film scares me. However there is one film I can’t watch as scares the hell out of me and sends shivers up my back.

It’s

Arachnophobia

Reason is I do suffer from it.

"Carrie"

That’s a great film adaptation of a novel but certainly not scary.

Depends what you class as scary. Horror is the same as comedy- it’s all subjective and your response will be determined by what’s going on in your own head. Personally I don’t find jump scares scary at all, but I know people who can’t deal with them. For me, it’s psychological-horror that gets me the most, like The Shining. Some body-horror freaks me out too like The Thing.

If you don’t like spiders, watch The Mist (the film, not the show). There’s a scene in that which made my skin crawl

I'm not into gore so these recommendations are more based on psychological horror.

Event Horizon, science fiction horror, very nightmarish.

The Witch, 17th century New England.

The Shining, art house horror.

Horror films just make you jump nowadays, like when a figure pops out of the shadows followed by a loud noise. But they are not scary.

Given the hype around it when it was first released I was hoping for more. Maybe I'm just too jaded

Alien and The Thing for sci-fi body horror.

It (part one...part two was disappointing).

28 days later.

Or if you like horror-comedy, Shaun of the Dead, The Cabin in the Woods, Evil dead 2 (or Ash vs Evil dead the series)

Stephen King is a great horror writer and all the film adaptations from his books are good.

The mist has a great soundtrack which I have got on iPlayer and the timeless classic of the exorcist is great to play.

For me I enjoy the saw films as some of those traps you would not want to be in

These are my favourites. Typically Brit flicks.

Elephant: a thriller about a hit man, who talks as much as the STIG.

Xtro: very spooky, think Omen era London and Alien special effects.

Left hand Drive: a short film about an arrogant yuppie in a Beemer, in a multi-story car park.

(I'm still looking for this one)

Doodlebug: another short film and it's about a bloke in a cell with a cockroach??? Or is it?

Blair witch project is not the only low tech horror film out there.

Salems lot is great, the late James Mason is brilliant and really adds to the pathos of the story. And who can forget Mr Barlow, wow, jumped off my seat when I laid eyes on him. Another great is the devil rides out,and the others is very good. The exorcist is brilliant, love the beginning scene in Iraq. The original omen is great and the witch is excellent. Love a good horror film.

Someone has already commented but scares are personal, just like comedy not everyone finds Adam Sandler funny but plenty do. So what you’d laugh at or hide behind the sofa whilst watching is down to you.

I watched Halloween last night, seen it a few times over the years, did it scare me. No chance, no film scares me....until.

I watched a film that some on here will think is shit or boring, however due to personal reasons it really got me when I first watched it. I was actually on the edge of my seat, telling myself ‘it’s only a film’

Blair Witch Project

as I say, it’s personal

The 1992 Dracula is good, Gary Oldman bought a new angle to the story. I used to like the TV show hammer house of horror, great show, and tales of the unexpected.

A good horror for me is where it could happen in life.

Hostel is the scariest for me, that film is the reason I question every holiday abroad.

"All the REC films, they're Spanish as well

They were remade for the American audience "Quarantine"

Not as good as the Spanish original.

Yes, I have seen the remake

Kill List is brilliant - albeit it has a touch of the Wicker Man about it. The hitmen are ahem interesting characters

A film I quite liked was Mother! Makes you feel very anxious watching it and you won't know what's going on until you get it, then it all makes perfect sense.

If you're looking for something lighter then I nominate a British 80's classic - The Monster Club. Watched this many a time growing up.

Agreed. They have quickly moved to the number one spot for me when it comes to horror.

Iv got 100s of foreign films on DVD, I'd say 50% are Korean, check out a Norwegian slasher film called cold prey, a slasher film with style

"Don't think horror movies are scary any more watching back movies from the 80s that scared me shitless actually now make me laugh.

Guess over time you get desensitized. Mad how the exorcist initially was banned for nearly 20 years...."

I've been looking at some on Now TV and got to agree the older ones have made me laugh.
