would you concider Identety to go in a horror collection?
urgeok
01-25-2005, 12:47 PM
you need more musicals
Movies like Identity, The Butterfly Effect, The Dead Zone and Seven are more of Psychological thrillers but sometimes more chilling than lot of horror movies.

Heres my process for making a kickass horror collection [Im in the process of this, slowly but surely] :
1st, buy all the cheap ones you see in bargain bins at departement stores. Not always the greatest, but you can get some gems, and they fill up your collection.
Then, buy all of your favorites. Every movie you enjoy.
Then, buy what are considered the classics, many of which you already have. Movies like Psycho, Exorcist, Carrie, Shining, ect.
Then, once your done all that, to cap off your collection, get any and all sequels/remakes/spinoffs ect. to any and all movies you own. Be they good or not.
As more movies come out, and more movies stock those bargain bins, repeat as nessesary.
Personally, Im most of the way through step one, making headway on step two, and have a decent start on steps three and four:)
EXTR3MIST
01-25-2005, 01:51 PM
You could tape all those off the TV -
Work through horror magazines and make a lot of contacts instead, swap a lot of lists - then you can track down obscurities and rare movies you will not find on the high street.
Sounds good, The Return... I just dont wanna buy a lot of crap movies though from bargin bin. I do wanna wait to collect the sequels for later. Do I really need the other hundred Friday the 13ths. Nah.. I check the forum to see what movies are good and worthy. However, I got some movies that I dont necessarily like bc of their movie reputation.

Not a bad collection. I have quite a few of those myself. Although you do have a few of them that I wouldn't ever consider buying. (Wickerman, Phantasm, Panic Room, The Ring, etc...) I highlighted my favorites from your list in bold so you can see what you're doing right. ;)

Jeremy Sisto rocks though!
Well, this thread is like over half year old and I been adding lot of horror movies... Im pushing close to 150 now. I just got "Event Horizon". It may take a little while to load but you can see them all if you click my signature..... Right now, Im gonna get or try to get these:
1. A Tale of Two Sisters
2. The Eye
3. Mute Witness
4. Wrong Turn ( i actually enjoyed this movie as well and wouldnt mind watching it again)
5. Ginger Snaps
It seems like May is either love or hate.
I always see Toolbox Murders at blockbuster but havent checked that out yet.

Bava directed, but Argento co-wrote them both with him. I'm not real familiar with too much of Bava's work, so I generally associate these two with Argento. Plus, there was no mention of Lamberto Bava, just Mario, so I woulda had to create a new heading for him.

I just noticed...your collection is severly lacking in Vincent Price!
MGM's Midnit Movies series has 3 Double Feature DVD's that I recomend:
The Abominable Dr. Phibes/Dr. Phibes Rises Again
Theatre of Blood/Madhouse
Pit and the Pendulum/Fall of the House of Usher
They have tons more, but those are the only ones Ive personally watched both movies on [Actually, I own all those, cept I have P&P and FotHoU separate]
You an usually find those for around $10-$15 each. Damn good price, if you ask me.
Another one I recomend is the Fox double feature of The Fly [1986] and The Fly 2 [1989]. It also goes for about $10, a damn good buy.
Kinski's Ghost
07-01-2005, 03:14 PM
Yes! The MGM Midnite Movies DVDs are great! I suggest the MOTEL HELL/DERANGED disc.
You should also spice up your collection with some trashy Eurosleaze or some Italian cannibal classics!
