Quoted from oldskool1969:

You just can't beat true Aussie horror, let alone our drop bears ( that would be a great movie )
My two favourites that are a MUST watch[quoted image][quoted image]

Yeah, you Aussies make some good horror flicks!

It's been a LONG time since I saw Dust Devil, but I think it was good? I remember liking Richard Stanley's Hardware as well, but I haven't seen it in decades. I also remember watching two Aussie crocodile movies that came out around the same time: Black Water and Rogue. I don't remember any specifics at this point, but I think at least one of those was good...maybe both? I remember liking Undead (2003). Started to watch Wyrmwood, but got interrupted and never finished it. Should I give it a second chance? A lot of people loved Babadook, but I didn't care for it. I know I watched The Loved Ones years ago, but I can't remember if I liked it or not.

I've thought about watching Long Weekend (1978), but it looks pretty cheesy. Wake in Fright (1971) is another I've considered watching, but haven't at this point.

PS: Not really horror, but a BIG "Thumbs Up" for Mad Max, etc.

Quoted from pin2d:

Good fun scary obscure movie I like is The Cube:

If you want to be actually scared, watch The Haunting of Hill House on Netflix. My wife wanted me to watch it so I did. Great acting, great directing, good story. But now I wake up in the middle of the night and see the Bent Neck Lady. That show is intense. I watched most of it during the daytime, and made sure to stand against a wall so no one could sneak up on me.

Cube was such a great surprise! Back in the day, I remember going to my local video store and seeing the Cube box on the shelf. It looked interesting, and the synopsis sounded intriguing so I rented it...not knowing anything else about it. After watching it, I was blown away! I wonder if it still holds up today? I need to go back and re-watch it!

NOTE: There were at least a couple of Cube sequels that I remember watching. I'm not sure if they were as good as the original, but I think they were still pretty good?

I've been BURNT OUT by too many zombie movies. However, the recent zombie series "Black Summer" surprised me a lot. I really liked it! The UK zombie series "Dead Set (2008)" was really good too!

Quoted from Rdoyle1978:

I LOVED Misfits and the first 3 series of Being Human. Had not heard of Utopia, thank you!

Where is Jessica Hyde?

Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel is not a "horror" movie, but there's arguably a bit of horror in there. It's mostly a nerdy, sci-fi, comedy flick. Whatever the case, I liked it a lot. Good times...check it out! https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0910554/?ref_=nv_sr_1?ref_=nv_sr_1

I thought that Outlander (2008) was a really good (underrated?) monster flick.

#92 4 years ago

I remember liking The Host (2006) as a good monster flick?

#93 4 years ago

I Saw The Devil (2010) is another I remember being a good flick, but it was brutal.

Quoted from Mudflaps:

Halfway through the four and a half hour ‘In Search of Darkness’ 80s horror documentary. I was a Kickstarter backer and the movie turned out fantastic.

I highly recommend picking it up when it’s available to the general public.

Haven't heard of it...but I'll have to check it out!

Quoted from TomT:

Lots of awesome movies listed in this thread one of my favorites for this season is "Something Wicked This Way Comes" not bloody or overly scary just a really well made creepy vibe movie.

Agreed! SWTWC is very creepy and a very good movie! That head-chop scene was CRAZY for a PG movie back in the day!

The Black Hole? Disney...going creepy/scary/scifi!?!

Quoted from Pablito350:

I'm with you, Forceflow, I really only get the horror bug in season.
I absolutely adore Theater of Blood- Vincent Price at his technicolor campiest! It can be gory in spots, but so over the top it's funny, he's so dramatic and so engaging. Diana Rigg is his side kick daughter in revenge and is as cool as she's ever been (save GoT). So much fun! Yes, Mr. Price rocks an afro!
For true suspense, I would recommend The Babadook. Wow. This is one that stays with you. At the climax, I said aloud (I was alone) "Why am I watching this? I hate this stuff!", but you are better for watching it because you reflect on what Babadook really is. Although that kid..

I heard lots of great things about Babadook before watching it. Hmmm, I didn't care much for it. Maybe, I just didn't get it? (However...that crazy kid...WOW!)

Happy Halloween 2019! I just re-watched Trick r' Treat (2007). It's not my favorite horror movie, but it's my favorite Halloween horror movie. Supposedly, Trick r' Treat 2 (by the same writer/director) is in the works. Bring it on!

(NOTE: There's a lot of stuff that is rewarding to the viewer when watching Trick r' Treat a second time!)
