    Eden Lake is my favorite...

    I've watched that...and you couldn't pay me to watch it again :O Brilliantly done though.

    I think Descent is another one I'll never watch again, (that's the one with the creepy white guys in a cave?)

    Nothing immediately comes to mind as a favorite though.

    I love Saw too. Drove all the way to London from Glasgow just for Thorpe Park and the live maze. It was dissapointing.

    I also love all of the Halloween movies, especially the Rob Zombie remakes and also House of 1000 Corpses and Devils Rejects is one of my favourite movies ever.

    Jacobs Ladder is another one of my favourites. Started to list the rest but it would never end so I gave up!

    Horror or slasher??

    I'm big into Japanese horror films....Watch Audition sometime. The only film Rob Zombie could not stomach.
    There was a trilogy of terror film on TV in the seventies...The zuni doll that comes to life is creepy

    Let see the nightmare on elm street series, The Oman (the orignal), and I thought Insidius was pretty good

    Don't really have any favorites, I usually enjoy foreign movies the most. I really enjoyed 'Let the Right One In' and 'Martyrs'.

    Other than that, I usually try to find the most disturbing movies I can as I'm a weirdo.

    The original Hitcher was great for suspense.

    Where are the Evil Dead fans?!?!?!

    I love so many, it's hard to remember them all, but I especially love Japanese horror. Love all the Ju-On movies, Audition as others mentioned, The Wishing Stairs, Kairo (the original Japanese version of Pulse), The Eye, Reincarnation, Omen, Rosemary's Baby, Three Extremes, Cursed, One Missed Call (Japanese version), all the Tomei movies, Ringu, and Prayer Beads. I know there's a ton more I can't think of right now, but great topic!

    Oh wow, thanks for reminding me about Let the Right One In and Evil Dead! When that lady's head laughed in Evil Dead, I thought I was going to die! lol.

    My kids always love Evil Dead because when the girl gets "attacked" by the trees in always say "so is she going to have saplings now?" They think that is the funniest thing they ever heard.

    The Exorcist, the only true scary/horror movie

    I actually found it more humorous than scary...

    The horrow movies that scare me the most, are the ones that could really happen. So to that end, a couple of my favorites are:

    Halloween (1st movie)
    The Strangers

    Also like Paranormal Activity, An American Werewolf In London, The Thing (Kurt Russell), Carrie, The Exhorcist, The Amytiville Horror

    Hellraiser seriers, mostly the 2nd one Hellbound Hellraiser.....too cool. I like most of Stephen King's work.

    From Dusk til Dawn is good, sometimes you just have to laugh at it though. But George Clooney makes it worth watching :love:

    I can only count on the Japanese to give me a real scare

    Ringu (the original Ring) had me petrified

    Wow, you excluded Jason Takes Manhattan and Jason Goes to Hell, but didn't exclude Jason X...Most people will take anything but Jason X.

    Aw, Jason X has one of my favorite scenes. When he's beating the girl in the sleeping bag against the tree. I laugh my tail off every time I see that part. :)

    I watch a lot of horror/thriller and I don't think I could pick just one, or even give a real list of the things I like. My preference is for films that don't take themselves too seriously.

    Oh - and I have seen most of the Masters of Horror series. Some I enjoyed, others I was bored.
