Re: 50 Scariest horror movies ever
My man! The idea of that "twist" could of actually worked decently well too, why they butt-fucked it right out the gate is beyond me. And then continued for the rest of the flick as if they weren't even trying!Havok wrote: Goodnight Mommy can just go fuck off as well.

I just said I'd be fine with bumping Psycho up, and it's known I don't like that flick.zombie wrote:so what would you include in place of human centipede, then?Reign in Blood wrote:You did, but that is the one that is glaringly wtf.

Re: 50 Scariest horror movies ever
Yeah, it was just a figure of speech. I'm sure it's some casual horror fan who looked at other lists and then compiled films that might've made the author jump a few times or possibly some unconventional storytelling methods?DancesWithWerewolves wrote:Was it polled? Seemed like just one magazine's opinion, which usually they aim for broad, which does explain why us hardcore horror fans are reacting miffed.Havok wrote:They also must of polled a lot of black people coming out of Get out for it to rank on this list. Good movie, but it doesn't belong on the list.

Re: 50 Scariest horror movies ever
i meant that wasn't on the list already, as you'd be removing one. so it wouldn't be a top 50 anymore.Reign in Blood wrote:I just said I'd be fine with bumping Psycho up, and it's known I don't like that flick.zombie wrote:so what would you include in place of human centipede, then?Reign in Blood wrote:You did, but that is the one that is glaringly wtf.

I can't wait to get Jig's opinion on this list and the lack of Scooby Doo on Zombie Island.

Re: 50 Scariest horror movies ever
I don't recall if I've seen Martyrs, or I am mixing it up with something else (probably am). I have my doubts of its placement as well though.
And 28 Days Later's high placement. I like the movie and all, but also not much to go one in the scare department that wasn't already covered in other landmark zombie movies before it.

Re: 50 Scariest horror movies ever
About 45 minutes or so of a Shotgun toting teenager and her friend shooting up a house the main girl was held hostage in years earlier. Then the rest of the film is constant beatings and torture of the best friend of shotgun girl in hopes of finding out if the existence of a God exists. It's more or less brutal and shocking, instead of scary.DancesWithWerewolves wrote:I don't recall if I've seen Martyrs, or I am mixing it up with something else (probably am).

28 Days Later shouldn't be on the list either. Good story, but not list worthy.

Sounds familiar, but also sounds like a blur of other "brutal" movies, lol.

First there's bad. Then there's sooo bad it's good. Then there's sooo bad it's just fucking bad. Then there's this list.
Re: 50 Scariest horror movies ever
