Yeah, I didn't feel right about putting Misery, Duel, and Phantasm on the list as underrated, but I was strictly looking at my Horror Movie Countdown research and those movies came up.

What is the general opinion of The Gate? Something tells me I need to make a list of movies I'm ashamed to admit I liked.

underated !
 

i sell the dead: humor, zombies and aliens ?

Damien Omen II is often underrated, I thought it was the best of the Omen films and very scary. The women in the red jacket bouncing of the lorry was so cool. And the doctor in the lift being cut in two was so awesome.:cool:

I thought that The Gate was an absolute blast... Same with Phantasm, though I believe it's a cult favorite...

I'm glad someone else likes The Gate. I suppose a lot of people thought it was too tame, but it had some good scares. Rated PG-13 and starring a very young Stephen Dorff, I would recommend the film to younger people as a starter horror film.

Love The Entity, Misery is excellent, Wolf Creek I really enjoyed. Glad you have The Stepford Wives (original, remake was rubbish), on here- Same writer (Ira Levin) as the brilliant Rosemary's Baby.

Did think Cabin Fever was pretty formulaic though

the gate.is this the one from the 80s?got some little creatures in it at some point,if so i loved this film!really enjoyed the entity,but i do love any film which is based on a true story.

The Gate:http://www.darkhorizons.com/assets/0...te_article.jpg

thats the one!great 80s film,must look out for it.

Scanners II: Quality low budget sequel, often overlooked or unfairly compared to the original.

The Video Dead: The fact that this quirky zombie flick is yet to have a DvD release is all the evidence needed to qualify it as underrated, in my book.

The Sentinel: Lost amongst the 70's classics or remembered as the movie that used deformed actors instead of make-up. Extremly well shot, dark, disturbing atmosphere filled with quality horror imagery.

The Exorcist III: Regarded as an underrated horror so maybe it's not all that underrated, but still deserves a mention. Some quality scenes that stack up well against many higher regarded horror films out there.
