A movie about a murderous vehicle, and other horror movies!

Options
A 1958 Plymouth Belvedere (or Fury, if you read the book), known as Christine.

The plot is almost laughable. A car that kills. however it happens to be one of the best horror movies directed and horror books written, in my opinion at least.

I'm a horror movie fanatic and 98% of my film collection is of the "scary" nature.

I'm just curious, what are some of your favorite horror movies?

They can be gory, disturbing, psychological or just plain creepy. Please, do tell. Maybe you will name one I haven't heard of, which is what I'm hoping you do.

I'd love to add some new movies to my list.


At least he's getting his daily cardio.

    The Car
    actually creeped me out a bit, and it makes you think of jaws

    This is my absolute favorite of the bunch. The plot is bare-bones, and yet it's every other aspect of the film that lends a high-art quality to what has been unfortunately relegated to forgotten genre runoff. James Brolin plays a cop in a small town out in the desert of...Utah? Arizona? Sorry, can't remember. A devilish black Lincoln, seemingly spawned from the desert itself, begins mowing down residents in a blood-thirsty agenda of evil. That's about it, the rest of the film is all about them trying to stop it more than ascertain its origin. What is so fascinating about The Car is its similarities to Jaws. No, the mayor does not refuse to shut down the beautiful beaches of the land-locked American west in the face of looming threats of vehicular homicide. But there are shots wherein the car is used in precisely the same capacity and even has its own approach music to alert the audience to the impending danger. This car stalks prey like a shark and the situation becomes so dire that the put-upon cop must risk his life in a fool-hearty plot with a crazy old man. What really makes The Car so special, and so much better than it has any right to be, is Gerald Hirschfeld's cinematography. He eloquently captures the barren desert as the perfect landscape for outright terror. The wide-open expanses of the wasteland are shot in a way as to be as foreboding and mysterious as the ocean; again, Jaws. The really crazy thing is that The Car precedes Jaws by four years, so it's coincidental but still interesting.

    Joy Ride. The first one, not so much the second. Not really "horror", just freaky and a little gross.
