Best movie of 2006??

[BH14]

What is the most recent best horror movie that you seen in 2006 or late in 2005? I rented a few b-horror movies that were absolutely horrible (so bad that I had to turn it off after 10 mins). I will never do a blind rent again. I also saw Hostel, Final Destination 3, The Hills Have Eyes and Slither. My vote for best movie so far in 2006 has to be The Hills Have Eyes. I really enjoyed this movie as it had lot of suspense, good acting, plenty of gore, fantastic makeup. If you havent seen it, you should definitely!!

[Posher778]

Not sure. It's still early '06, so i'd have to think about it.

[The_Return]

I honestly dont think Ive seen a single horror film released this year...

[Posher778]

Best movie this year in all genre's is V for Vendetta though.

[BH14]

How about straight to video B-Horror movies? I've been striking out with those movies.... Anything good there?

PS.... Dont see "Fear of Clowns" (B-horror movie)!! Horrible and the acting is worst than porno acting. The makeup looks like it came from party city. And this movie had good reviews on the cover! what the hell!!

[crazy raplh]

the hills have eyes

[Abominus]

The Hills Have Eyes, so far. However, I haven't made it to V for Vendetta or Slither yet.

[gorefreak]

They say "Slither" isn't a remake, but the premise reminds me so much of the plot from "Night Of The Creeps".

[urgeok]

v for vendetta - so far

[Posher778]

hey urge I have a question for you, but since you don't answer pm's i'll just ask you here...


How do I upload a pic from my digital cam onto my computer using a USB port?

if the drivers are loaded properly, the camera should appear in explorer like another hard drive, then you just drag them over from the camera to the place of your choice on your harddrive

[Posher778]

Thanks! I got it.

I want Night of the Creeps on dvd so bad. that tagline, "the good news is your dates are here. the bad news is, they're dead", really sells it.

[urgeok]

no probs..

[Posher778]

Now.... How do i make them smaller?

[urgeok]

put them in cold water :D

[Angelakillsluts]

A History of Violence count?

It came out in october '05 I think.

[BH14]

I was referring to the best horror movies of late 2005 until now. My vote still goes for "The Hills Have Eyes".

Sorry Urgeok....... but Angela is prettier.

[iheartkubrick]

There really aren't too many good horror movies out there nowadays, especially this year. It seems the new trend in "horror" is foreign independent slasher films. I don't know if this is 2005 or 2006, but I thought that "Creep" was the best slasher flick I saw recently. I saw the hills have eyes and while it was mildly entertaining, having seen the original ruined the new one for me, the original was WAYYYYY better.

You think you're better than everyone else, don't you? Voting for movies that aren't in the same category like it's no big deal...

Well let me tell you something, in time your beauty will fade. What are you gonna do then huh? huh? :D

edit: Late again because of HDC! arrrg I can't keep track of time. :(

now thats a fine looking kid !

[SodaGirl]

"Saw II" was my favorite of late 2005, and my favorite so far this year is "The Hills Have Eyes". I was very impressed. Number 2 goes to Final Destination 3.

I am waiting for the Hostel & Wolf Creek DVDs and the theatrical release of Hard Candy. I expect to like them all.

However, I doubt I will like any of those 3 over Saw II & Hills.

[newb]

I don't think "the best movie" of 2006 has even been released yet.

[Firemedic]

Hills Have Eyes is the best so far, but the year is still young

[BH14]

We are more than half way through the year... The Hills Have Eyes is still the best movie that I seen so far this year. Just watched it again last night. I don't think this movie has been topped yet but I havent seen Omen remake or See No Evil.

[joshaube]

Okay, so far I would go for a joint... The Hills Have Eyes and V for Vandetta.

I'm holding out for Snakes on a Plane (;p), and The Wicker Man looks half-decent.

[_____V_____]

V for Vendetta so far, but there's still 6 months left.

[StanTheMan]

Havn't seen any good horrors this year either.
I also liked Creep last year. Very gritty.

[CHRIS24]

the hills have eyes by far one of the goriest and great horror movies of the year even though its a remake. I can dare say one of the best horror films in years.

[Korpse]

V For Vendetta
Lucky Number Slevin
The Hills Have Eyes

[crazy raplh]

it is hard we should be doing this thread in december.???????????????????

[mufc_lad]

I would hope the best horror movie 2006 would be SAW III which probably still will be rubbish no matter what i hope :(

[BH14]

Just to get suggestions on the best movie that you all seen in 2006.... that why I said the best horror that I've seen SO FAR is The Hills Have Eyes remake.

Any other good horror movies that came out late 2005 or in 2006?

[Sick_As_Fuck]

Can't exactly remember the dates, but thus far for me it goes...

1. Hostel
2. The Hills Have Eyes
3. The Omen/Saw II [tie]
4. See No Evil
5. When A Stranger Calls

Can't remember if I saw anything else. My memory's horrible.

[spookychild]

The Hills Have Eyes. It scared the crap out of me and I felt violated after coming out of the theater.

[PR3SSUR3]

You weren't sitting next to Pee-Wee Herman, were you?

:eek:

[Gatekeeper6sic6]

Between 2005 and 2006 I will have to say Sin city best movie of all time. It's like the only good movie I seen until it first came out and until. Nothing I seen so far had catch my heart like sin city did.

[joshaube]

Updated;

Hard Candy
V for Vandetta
The Hills Have Eyes
Pirates of the Carribean 2

[Angra]

"Silent Hill" so far..

But there´s a lot of new horror movies that i haven´t seen yet, such as "The hills have eyes", "Slither", "Half light"... Etc.



:(

[Jacob Singer]

...It's hard. I spent most of this year workin' and I don't have see all the new stuff (Hills have eyes, Slither...). I've only seen "V for Vendetta", not bad but I can't said that is one of the best till I have seen more "new" films ( During my hollydays I would be most of them time watching films ) Otherwise, finally the next week Silent Hill arrives to Spain....too late but I still have some faith on this film.

[Amalthea]

The Promise (Wu Ji)

[The Mothman]

best=hills have eyes
worst=silent hill....why do poeple like this movie?

[sullenbliss]

ha i saw hostel.... if you like cheesy lines and a lot of boobs in your movies.. then um go for it. i did not enjoy it. but on the other hand i did just see saw ll, which i did enjoy although where i saw it the sound quailty was pretty poor. the plot was pretty good i thought but certain details could have been left out to add to the "game" but oh well. i have been hearing a bunch about the hills have eyes, which i guess my friends are making me go see.

[Unaboner3000]

I thought Hills Have Eyes absolutely stunk like an 80 year old sneaker. Boooooring!

Hostel was a pretty good movie with only one complaint from me (and it's a big complaint). Enough with all the boobies and asses and softcore porn sex! Jeez! If I want something to masterbate to, I wouldn't put in a horror movie.

The Omen remake was mediocre. Loved the original.

All in all, the horror movies of late all were not very good, although Hostel would have been a really good movie without all the sex sh*t and a little more character development.

[Ooky_Kabuki]

Silent Hill

"Half light" sucked ass.

To call it horror would be an insult to the horror genre...:mad:

[urgeok]

i'd have to go with Silent Hill ... so far

[BH14]

It seems like many people enjoyed Silent Hill. I think it comes out next week to DVD. I am gonna check that out. And a lot of people are loving "The Descent". Even though it came out earlier, it is new in US theatres.

[BH14]

After hearing you all praise "V for Vendetta", I wanted to see this movie and I rented it. Gonna check it out later. I am sure it is good.

[Sloan]

its A Tie Between Grandma's Boy Or Running Scared

i was assuming we were talking the best horror film of the year..

best film in any genre ... not sure.

havent seen too many yet - i'm always 2 or 3 years behind.
Loved V for Vendetta though.

[GameOver]

Hills Have Eyes hands down.

[AUSTIN316426808]

Horror- The Hills Have Eyes

Overall- Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest



Of course there's alot I haven't seen yet and alot still to be released.

[Zero]

boy - tough one. . . not sure any films this year have lived up to my expectations. . esp. horror films. i'm looking forward to the descent, but not putting out much hope.

[AUSTIN316426808]

I would've listed it best horror so far, but since it was officially released last year i left it out of the equation.

Do you think Descent is better than Hills Have Eyes remake? I wanna see it.

[alkytrio666]

Either:

Pirates of the Carribean: Dead Man's Chest

or

The Descent

[alkytrio666]

Originally posted by BH14

Easily.

Gorier. Scarier. A better plot and setting, and an original story.

[AUSTIN316426808]

Very much so.

[joshaube]

Hm.

Can you really count The Descent as a 2006 film? I wouldn't. It definately is in the top of 2005 though.

I wouldn't say it was GORIER then The Hills Have Eyes (unrated) either. Definately not.

Orginal, well... I don't know. Probably. There is The Cave. And I have heard that there was a similiar movie made a few years back also. Not 1:1 similiar, but neither is THHE 1:1 to the original.

Better might fit. But I liked both very much, and I'd have a problem picking between the two, personally.

Of course the plots for either aren't THAT complex. The Descent does win by a bit by giving us a sense of background on the characters. But both are, underneath, just paths so characters can die.

Direction wise, both are pretty superior to most directors. I really, definately, couldn't pick between the two.

I'd say if you're a more "mature", "intellectual" watcher... you'd probably prefer The Descent.

This is just my opinion, as everyone has theirs.

I never understand this, what's wrong with well written characters that you actually have a chance to give a damn about.

Hostel for example, couple college guys on vacation in Europe, that's all you know about 'em so to me they're just a couple idiots in the wrong place at the wrong time and I couldn't careless what happens. At that point I'm just waiting to see if they get killed in an interesting way.

On the other hand in The Descent I actually cared what happened which really got me into it when the shit hit the fan, that raised the suspense level and made the whole film better.

Also The Descent was released before The Cave. Obviously I'm not sure of the other film you're referring to but I'm thinking it's Alone in the Dark? which was just being released while The Descent was still being filmed. I'm not saying it was completely original but what is anymore?

[joshaube]

"I never understand this, what's wrong with well written characters that you actually have a chance to give a damn about"
Absolutely nothing. I never said there was. I actually feel the same way.

As for the other movies, the title escapes me - but I remember reading it in a thread... either IMDb or Dead-Donkey. It might have been Alone in the Dark. And yeah, nothing's entirely original anymore.

This is just my opinion, as everyone has theirs.

A) In America, where I live, The Descent wasn't released until 2006. Therefore, I consider it a 2006 movie.

B) It was gorier than 'Hills'. They gouge a thing's eyes out in 'Descent'.

C) It was original. At least more original than 'Hills', which was a remake, for chrissake.

[BH14]

I thought that I would bring this topic back up. I saw lot of good horror movies this year but what horror movie was the best? Even though The Descent was really a 2005 film, I would consider it the best horror movie for 2006 in the US. The ending was pretty lame but it had so many good things working. In a close second was The Hills Have Eyes remake. With Saw 3 that I just watched coming in a respectable 3rd place. Other mentionable movies that I liked were TCM:the beginning and Slither. TCM: Beginning movie blew away my expectations!

I havent seen An American Haunting, See No Evil, Pulse, Stay Alive, When a Stranger Calls (remake), The Wicker Man (remake), House of the Dead 2. I dont think I will be seeing any of them either.

[pinkerton]

Not horror but I would say Little Miss Sunshine.Go ahead and flame away......

[BH14]

Great movie... I saw it in the theatre and bought it on DVD. I went into the theatre not knowing how funny it was and was laughing all throughout. I hope the little girl wins an oscar! Best comedy of the year and best movie overall this year that I seen. I havent seen The Departed or Babel yet but I did enjoy Blood Diamond as my 2nd favorite.

[Amalthea_unicorn]

I've only seen Final Destination 3.

[The Mothman]

, My vote for best movie so far in 2006 has to be The Hills Have Eyes. I really enjoyed this movie as it had lot of suspense, good acting, plenty of gore, fantastic makeup. If you havent seen it, you should definitely!!
agreed....

[slayer666]

How about straight to video B-Horror movies? I've been striking out with those movies.... Anything good there?

Nothing great. Feast wasn't bad. As for straight to video, Rest Stop wasn't bad.

[can't get enough gore]

Best movie this year in all genre's is V for Vendetta though.

i hated that movie but we all have our own opinions

[BASSI]

my favorite movie in 2006 were

1The Hills have eyes
2 Final Destination 3
3 Sillther
4 Feast


that all i can think of

[roshiq]

Best horror movies of 2006:

[1] The Hills have Eyes
[2] The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning
[3] Saw 3
[4] The Descent
[5] The Grudge 2
[6] Final Destination 3
[7] An American Haunting
[8] Silent Hill
[9] See no Evil
[10] Rest Stop / Hostel

[garthmanorgirl]

I think that Slither was awesome. I remember going into it expecting nothing, but it was a pleasant surprise.
I actually enjoyed the Black Christmas remake quite a bit (I know that is a controversial subject.). I thought it had a decent amount of gore in it, and of course the incest scene was disturbing.

I didn't get a chance to see Black Christmas. I'm sure I'll check it out on dvd. I wasn't all that impressed with the original, to tell you the truth. It some some good bits, but I feel it may be a tad bit overrated.

Yes, the original is overrated.

[Despare]

Yes, the original is overrated.

Maybe as far as the movie itself (which I still think was very good) but the contributions it made to the genre shouldn't be overlooked.

I agree, it is a must see for any fan of the slasher genre.It paved the way for " Friday the 13th" my favorite slasher flick.:)

[Roderick Usher]

Pan's Labyrinth
The Departed
The Descent
Thank You for Smoking
Crank
This Film Is Not Yet Rated
An Inconvenient Truth

[joshaube]

I'm taking this question as "best movie of 2006", rather then "best horror movie of 2006" as the first entry entails. Out of what I have seen (NA dates)... I would say; Pan's Labyrinth, The Descent, Running Scared, and The Hills Have Eyes (being in some sort of order... Pan's is definately my favourite, but as far as the rest go...) for the darker films, and Little Miss Sunshine on the lighter side.

[alicefan]

for me it is The New Texas Chainsaw Massacre and The Hills Have Eyes, Saw 3 was good too

[AngelDust24]

i hated that movie but we all have our own opinions

I agree I hated V also. I think that the subject matter was a little to close to home. Glamourising terrorism as it did.

Besides, i have another bone to pick...No-one mentioned 2001 Maniacs..that film is great.
Some amazing gore scenes, lots of laughs and of course Robert Englund...c'mon, how could you pass that up?
