Jaws 3 was so cheesy and so much fun. It's a guilty pleasure.:o

Is that the one with Dennis Quaid?

mine would have to be
cannible holocaust
howling
wicker man
nightmare on elm st
bram stoker's dracula
28 days later (i did like second one)
let the right one in
omen (i thought rosemary's baby was better)
carrie
zombieland
sleepy hollow
devils backbone
underworld
sorry people but i hated these movies

I agree with...

The Howling
Wicker Man (sorry, Wicker!)
Nightmare on Elm Street (though it's growing on me like a tumor with every viewing)
28 Days Later (and I too loved the sequel - I just thought that 28 Days could have been much, MUCH better)

Also mentioned that I agree with:

High Tension
The Strangers
Halloween 2 (original)

I also have to add, in terms of films that are incredibly popular in the Horror Community (here as well) that I really can't stand are Hershel Gordon Lewis (couldn't get through Wizard of Gore) and typical Giallo (couldn't get through Tenebre). I guess I just don't 'get' those movies.

I also hated Signs, which was immensely popular.

Yeah. It was a really bad movie, but fun.:o

@Chrono - my husband would be in complete agreement with you on The Wicker Man and your basic giallo.:(

I loved Signs. One of my favorite movies. I actually hear more negative reviews about it then postitive ones though.

I couldnt stand "Bram Stokers Dracula" and "The Blair Witch Project"
Terrible films

Jaws changed my life as a kid. I was obsessed with sharks for years because of it..

Man I used to drive my parents crazy with it. I watched it every day till I wore the tape out!

As far as the sequels go I liked Jaws 2 but the rest were disappointing.

Love this one:

Vic Morrow died for the Twilight Zone movie, sad.

You're thinking of Jaws 4.
