Okay...start with a controversial one.
Nightmare On Elm Street - Not the remake (though don't get me started on that...) I've never been a huge fan of slashers as it happens. Halloween is good, but I could never quite get into Friday The 13th. I always thought the sequels shouldn't have dealt with Jason but with people acting "through" Jason, similar to Barbara in the first film, although she may just have been nuts...
Anyway, I digress...
I appreciate the dream logic that was used (I've always had a soft spot for surrealism in horror) but I wasn't that impressed. I didn't find it scary and although I can appreciate Freddie Krueger, he's not my favourite horror character.
Saw - Again, I just never found it terrifying, maybe because I knew how it would end.
Piranha 3D - Tried to sit through this, but it just played like almost softcore porn with a little bit of horror/comedy (which again, I enjoy) thrown in. I found it dumb in an almost insluting way.
The Amityville Horror - So much potential but it never quite gets that exciting for me. I quite liked Amityville II though. Same with The Omen (which I like, but I always felt the sequels were underrated, except Omen IV *shudder*)
