Blah.. Cant sign up since i live in Norway.. :mad:
Anyway found reelhd.com - got lots of interesting indie-horrors.
It`s a pay site, but they throw in 5 days where you can watch for free.
Now i gotta spend 5 days watching cheesy horrors just to get a value out of the free trial :D

That's too bad you can't get NetFlix. I didn't think I'd like it, don't know why. Then someone sent me a free trial and I've been hooked ever since. And I love the fact that they're kicking Blockbusters ass, lol.
I won't say all Blockbusters suck, but the one by us sure does.

Been a Netflix customer for around 2 years now, 0 complaints, they even send extra movies every now and then for free. The Blockbuster by us just had there 'going out of business' sale-Family Video is still doing well.

I missed our BlockBusters going out sale. I was pissed. I heard some good deals were to be had.

On topic, I don't see new horror in theaters. I don't have a job atm and I can't afford to spend the bucks for a family outing to the theaters, but more than that, even if I could afford it I'm tired of being disappointed by new horror.

I'll rent them and make my choice. But, I agree with what's been said. This place is full of people who like good horror, and their recommendations are spot on from what I've checked out so far.
Sucks being out money when a movie sucks, especially with theater prices. Cool to post somewhere that people just want good horror, and can point you(or me) in the right direction to get it.

To be fair fuck all of the older horror movies actually scared me either.

Endo doesn't agree but Paranormal Activity put the shits up me and tripped me out.

I thought Pontypool had a creepy atomosphere too as did The House Of The Devil.

Those three came out in the last year or so I don't get what the dude who started the thread is on about.

:) Nice to not get bashed for once on the Paranormal Activity thing, lol. Neither here nor there,but I don't know what the movie lacked for me. Just didn't do it.

I saw an indie film called Somebody Help Me, and that disturbed me, in a good way!! I loved this flick. The guy is pulling teeth out and fingernails, and we had to stop it a few times to just gather ourselves.
That's what I like. If you're going to torture, take it to the point that I have to stop for a bit.

I've recommended this film to friends, and they didn't like it. Maybe it's me that's skewed, lol.

It's 'Bad Taste', isn't it?

Referring to the op, Freddy's pedophilia was definitely implied in the original series, and if you want quality horror, you need to view the foreign section, that is, anything but American horror. The best recent American horror film I've seen was Quarantine, and that's a shot for shot remake of [REC].

I think The House of the Devil is highly overrated online. Aside from the nice cinematography and Tom Noonan, it was an amateur movie.
