    The conjuring 2 I think is the last horror movie I watched, is split a horror movie? Saw that the other week.

    Pretty much any movie with zombies are my favourite, I am not a zombie bigot, I like fast zombies, slow zombies, infected zombies.

    Is Shaun of the dead considered horror? It has zombies and jump scares and people dying, if that counts, that's my vote for favourite horror movie, even though it's a comedy.

    I'm a chickenshit and hate horror movies because I hate being scared. There are so many great feelings to experience, fear, to me, is not one of those .

    I love horror films but lately I find 'horror' has just become gratuitous amounts of gore. Maybe as I've got older, I'm harder to scare (I watched my first horror films as a five year old... freaked me out emotionally like crazy until my early teens where something changed and I craved horror and now in my late twenties, I'm like BRING.IT.ON) or maybe as I've got older, films have become poorer in quality. I dunno. But the big mainstream 'horrors' I avoid, unless someone recommends. I like a lot of foreign films now. Whilst I sometimes look at a few and think "how can this be allowed?!" the dark places it takes me too after the credits have rolled is what I seek from a horror.

    Someone said that you can have all the gore or jumps on a screen that you want BUT if it's not taking you to a messed up place in your mind, it ain't done the trick. Cos that's where the true horror lies.

    I wish I could remember the last 'horror' that I watched but it clearly wasn't that memorable. Darn.

    Old horror movies are the best, the new ones are not all scary. Once watched a movie called Jinn, 10 mine in I just switched it off.

    Yeah a lot of horror is just gore and cheap jump scares.

    Where is the atmosphere? The suspense? The sense of impending doom?

    I was playing a game lately, at times I thought it was a horror game, felt like something was about to happen, someone was about to die, all because of atmosphere.

    It was a game where you work as a park ranger type looking out for forest fires.

    50 shades of grey was terrifying.......What happened 2 the movies now? The technology has gotten better,but the writing has become lame ....Look at classics like the "Exorcist" ...or my all time favorite & always will be is "Jaws" ....People are still screwed up from that movie & terrified 2 go in the water ....That movie was great cuz the entire time u didn't see Jaws ( until the end obviously) so u went off ur imagination what was in the water & when u heard the Jaws music u *kitten* ur pants cuz ya knew something was gonna happen ...."Ur gonna need a bigger boat"

    Lalaland. My wife wants to see it, but I am really scared of horror movies. They make me imagine things at night. Especially when I have to go alone somewhere at night and some white thing creeps up from behind me and...

    Scared? Don't be. When the scary part comes just clos your eyes lol

    Horror, Sci-Fi and Psychological Thriller are my favourite movies types :)

    I am well known as a 'bad movie' enthusiast by my friends and family...so be forewarned at my choices!
    (the horror genre I typically feel is kinda comedic, but one of my favourites since I was a little kid)

    Horror(ish) - Tonight I watched "Autopsy of Jane Doe" - it was kinda creepy/spooky - liked it, but I typically find more realistic movies to be more "scary"

    Sci-Fi - My favourite is "Pandorum"...I tell everyone I can to watch it (sadly they don't believe me due to my "bad" movie choices!)...it creeps me out more than typical horrors 'cause it seems possibly more realistic (to me)

    Psych Thriller - "Ratter"...it had bad IMDB reviews, but that means nothing to me! I found it really creepy in a very realistic way...and I appreciated the ending for the totally creepy/scary factor

    Other "horror"— I guess— movies that I watched recently and liked were two Eli Roth movies, The Green Inferno and Aftershock...creepy, cheesy and gory!
