Okay, well I'm not a fan of slasher films ... particularly because this particular type of horror has followed the path of comedy and gore over scares. But, Halloween was not like this. It generally tries to be frightening, and it
was to its generation. I don't see how
Carrie was a weak film, though. Taking into consideration the technology available, it was well-made and Sissy Spacek's performance is one of the most memorable in the genre. I know you don't have a problem with the story, because you lauded King's work (story-wise) in another thread.
Even so, what
do you consider to be good horror? Please list some films.
