Gimme some recommendations!
Hello all.
I've found that I'm unsure what films to buy because I pretty much have all the horror films that I actually want on DVD. I need some ideas! I like films about a character up against bizarre odds/villians, such as "The Wicker Man", "The Tenant" and "Suspira" so something along those lines will be great. I also like "The Ninth Gate" which had a similar, eerie kind of vibe. Any suggestions?

Dead Birds
Maybe if you gave us a list of what movies you have, we could help you better.

Oh yes, sorry.
Here's my Horror list, in whatever order I read them off the shelf: From Hell 28 Days Later The Ninth Gate The Blair Witch Project The Texas Chainsaw massacre Remake The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: the beginning Saw trilogy all Friday 13th films Alien films The Ring Creep Suspiria The Fly (No Cronenberg recommendations though please, i've seen them all) Sleepy Hallow Sixth Sense through to Lady in the Water Rabid Shivers The Shining Rosemary's Baby The Tenant Romero's "Dead" films Scream trilogy all Halloween films all Nightmare on Elm St. films all Exorcist films Omen Trilogy Cube trilogy Final Destination trilogy all Hannibal Lecter films The Bird with the Crystal Plumage Don't look now (Something like this would be great) The Texas Chainsaw Massacre original The Wicker Man (again, I love this kind of film) That should give you some idea of the films I enjoy. I'm really not sure where to go next - I just recently bought and saw Suspiria for the first time so some more Dario Argento films might be a start. Perhaps we can turn this into a recommendation thread of some sort, so we can all share our interests and films and broaden our horizons.

@Grumbler You should make a DVDSpot or DVDAF.

Thanks for the recommendations; I will endevour to seek them out. I do have Dog Soldiers, actually, forgot to mention it!
Also, I see you listed From Dusk till Dawn 3. I have the first film already, but I noticed a boxset of all three films for only £12. Is it worth it? I guess since you didn't list the second film, it probably isn't...

I noticed you had 28 Days Later on your list on DVDs you have watched. If you haven't seen 28 Weeks Later, definitely grab it. Almost as good as the original, but a bit more violent and gorey. Definitely buy The Descent. Great flick. The Scream films are fun in a traditional teenage slasher sorta way.
