Recommend movies for me

[X¤MurderDoll¤X]

I've been super busy lately, haven't been watching any movies. Let me know if you've seen a good horror movie in the last 3-4 months so I can watch it.

[scouse mac]

Haven't seen much new stuff recently but Devils Chair is interesting enough to be checked out, but its not a masterpiece by any stretch.

[Doc Faustus]

Have you seen Savage Weekend? Not new but awesomely perverse.

[Staal]

I just caught up on some European movies lately.

[REC], Inside & Ils are all some of the best I've seen for a long time. If you haven't already had you chance to view them, then go get a hold of them!

[Elvis_Christ]

Not a horror flick but you should def check out Ex-Drummer.

i can recommend a bunch of kids movies, romantic comedies, and old TV shows.

cant even remember the last horror movie i saw :eek:

they're gonna pull my license for this place !!

[VampHntr]

There are so many different types so I have a few to recommend.

If you're into Indie Foreign Horror Films, Check out Inside
Terrifying movie, super intense and just totally worth every second.

If you're into Suspense Movies, not neccesarily horror, check out The Skeleton Key
It's one of those with a twist and more of a thought provoker

If you want Zombies, check out Diary of the Dead
One of George Romero's newer films, not too well known, but for sure one of the better ones out there

And the last, if you're into the cheesey low budget films, check out Evil Bong
Perfect choice after a bong load and seriously hit the spot

Good luck

I watched "All the Boys love Mandy Lane" recently, it's fairly new out and it was a good horror slasher movie, you might have to bare with for a little at first but definatley worth checking out.

It is not full of suspense or jump out of your seat frights but seemed a bit real...

[VampHntr]

Did you end up picking any of our suggestions? I actually rented Demonic Toys this weekend and really like it, so you guys should check that out too

You are probably the only person I have ever seen recommend Diary of the Dead. Romero at his lowest, in my opinion...sadly.

Inside was, in fact, amazing though. Can't recommend that movie enough. If they made that movie PG-13 it would still be terrifying.

[Zombietooth]

Check out "The Mist". It's based on a stephen king novella good production value and directed by Frank Darabont. You either love it or hate it.

Better than Land, and one of the decade's best zombie flicks along with Shaun of the Dead and Fido.

[UngodlyWarlock]

Better than Land, and one of the decade's best zombie flicks along with Shaun of the Dead and Fido.

I completely disagree. I enjoyed Land a lot more...
The story was pretty weak for Diary and the always necessary social commentary from Romero was so forced it was like jamming a square peg in a round hole, only in this case the round hole was the audiences throats.

And the cast was absolutely wretched in Diary, in my opinion. Couldn't stand....well any of them...but the narrator chick was painful.

Land had a lot of moments that weren't up to Romero's 80's standards, but it was entertaining to me and the cast didn't grate on me (John Leguizamo was the only one that I was annoyed with). Also, it did have some fairly classic zombie moments (the black zombie leading the legion of them out of the water sticks in my head as a rather classic moment...at least up there with some of the parts of Day).

Diary left me feeling like I had just watched like Romero's son trying to impersonate him or something. Awful movie.

Either way....Land vs. Diary is one thing, but to call Diary "one of the best zombie films of this decade" is mind boggling to me. It's not even close to Shaun of the Dead in quality or enjoyment level as far as I am concerned. And if its even in the top 3 then that just tells me not enough zombie movies are made these days.

[ChronoGrl]

Gotta agree with His Ungodliness here, though the acting wasn't the weakness for Diary for me:

Diary of the Dead was self-conscious self-absorbed preachy tripe. I found it insulting, personally. The voiceover pandered to what was assumed an audience of idiots.

To tell you the truth, voiceover removed - I would probably have ranked this movie in one of my top zombie films of all time (the direction was great and the use of the hand-held cam was fantastic). But its preachiness and its condescention really put me over the edge.

I hated it. It should have been better than it was, but either Romero is too full of himself or he seriously needed an editor.

With Land of the Dead, I thought that it was just pure, uhm, bad. Silly, over-the-top cheesy dystopia. I just brush it off as being a bad movie.

With Diary of the Dead, I see the glimmer - oh the small small glimmer of a good movie in there... Which bothers me more that it wasn't.

We're horror fans, we're not idiots. I don't need some chick with a voiceover giving me poorly-written expedition. His job was to SHOW and not TELL.

See, I didn't hate Land of the Dead either, I guess I'm just not as inundated with brilliant zombie flicks as the rest of you and 90% of the ones I get to watch turn out to be dreck. Diary had a silly premise but the first person camera gimmick was easy for me to overlook because of the zombie story that Romero built. I really enjoyed the flick from beginning to end and was impressed by the fact that it didn't star any "big names". You're both allowed to have your opinions, even if their wro... I mean, even if you don't agree with me. :)

I would still say it's a fun watch and the theater we saw it in reacted fairly positively.



As far as real suggestions go I'll throw a few out there:

Otis (I had really low expectations for this one but it turned out pretty damn good)
Teeth
The Mist
Office Killer (not that new but lesser known and hilarious, Carol Kane is crazy as hell)
Cigarette Burns (the best of the MoH season 1 episodes)
Severance (I didn't love it but it strikes a chord with a lot of people and it's work watching)
Inside
Midnight Meat Train
Tokyo Gore Police
The Grindhouse (watch it as a double feature with all the fake trailers intact)

King of the Ants (not particularly horror and not that new but it seems like nobody has watched it and it's one of Stuart Gordon's best)

Hatchet and Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon were both alright, a bit of fun just like Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer(adored the lack of CGI and Robert Englund hasn't had a bit this good since his Freddy role).

[UngodlyWarlock]

Yeah, Jack Brooks was surprisingly awesome. Loved the creature effects in it.

[scouse mac]

Hard Candy is definately worth checking out, not so much a horror but a very taut, disturbing thriller.

[Elvis_Christ]

Everyone should watch this at least once:

They played Savage Streets recently didn't they? Do they play actual prints or project DVDs?
