Big ass horror collector myself!
*Texas Chainsaw Massacre (old one, remake is ok too)
*Last House On the Left (old one)
*Dario Argento movies (almost all!! His light effects rule!!)
*The Hills Have Eyes (old one, remake is ok too)
*Zombi
*The first two Romero zombie movies
*House of the 1000 corpses
------>these two R.Z. films are, in my eyes, two of the best recent movies. A turning point after the scream sh*t.
*Driller Killer
*Devil's rejects
*I Spit on Your Grave
*Gotta love Bruce Campbell too!!!!
*...
------>b.t.w. this is just the Euro/American stuff, Asians make some good f'ed up films too!
There is such a broad variety in horror movies, but I think the best are the 70's slasher/revenge/cult & zombie ones (where you can see that some of the directors/writers started in the porn bizz
) ... My list can go on and on.
Most 90's and early 2000 just plain suck, it started with Scream and it was a trend that destroyed the true horror film (overexposed lighting, no color trips, stupid music,...). I just hate those newskool teen horror/scream films. But these days it got a bit, really liked Rubber!!
