That old cult classic Return Of The Living Dead. Gotta love that soundtrack.

"BECAUSE I WANT YOUR BRAINS"

Though it is not as scary as most "The Omen" is one of my favorites. "The Shining" had me freaked out for weeks when I first saw it. "Heeeerrrreeess Johnny!" I thought Jack was gonna come through my door every nite. A great "B" horror flick is "Bad Taste". One of Peter Jacksons first films. He even plays a screwed up alien not unlike the bug guy from MIB. It's about aliens that have a fast food chain and the main fare is human flesh.
Talk about sick shit! Brains for breakfast and vomit to wash it down. Buckets of blood and guts everywhere. A far cry from the LOTR trilogy.

It was filmed in Monroeville mall, but many remodelings ago. I saw the movie last night, & it was definitely the Monroeville Mall of my childhood. The closed mall is Eastland... not too far away.

My pick for an awesome horror flick: 28 Days Later. It's like a rabies epidemic & a zombie film rolled into one.

When I was little, I remember the Monroeville Mall had a talking Christmas tree in one of the stores. Does anyone else remember that?

Full-sized? No. The little talking ones... yes...

Exorcist, Dawn of the Dead, and Return of the Living Dead are some personal faves. The original Halloween, and Alien. The remake of The Thing doesn't get much credit, but it's really effective too.

Anyone into the old black-and-white classics? Not because they're scary in the modern sense, but just for the style. There's a sweet version of Nosferatu with Type O Negative as the soundtrack. Bride of Frankenstein is really good, and King Kong. You can usually find Carnival of Souls really cheap in the discount bins; it's worth a few bucks.

As a kid, Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory really traumatized me. Does that count?

hey all...

thanks for all the cool answers... I had forgotten about allot of GREAT Horror Movies!!!! sooo.... I'll have to get the blockbuster card out and rent some this weekend!

but I have to say I kinda got a chuckle out of "Willie Wonka" being on here, until I was watching the 100 most scariest movies of all time on A&E last night and it was on there

guess I never really thought about how twisted that movie really is!!!! plus after watching most of this program it made me think of a couple of more movies....

THE SIXTH SENSE
CUJO
MAXIMUM OVERDRIVE
THE HOWLING

just a couple of more to add... in case you are like me and are going to rent some Horror movies this Halloween weekend!

Happy Haunting!

"The Bridges of Madison County"

Seriously though,
"The Exorcist", "Salem's Lot", "The Tingler", "Gargoyles", and "Trog" all scared the bejesus out of me as a kid.

If someone would do a Frankenstein movie (I think I've seen all of them) that was even close to doing the book justice, it would probably be my all time favorite. Mary Shelley was one twisted young lady.
