Kevin Bacon Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 (edited) I really liked The Descent, I highly recommend that one. Easily the best horror film made in the last 15 years be a LONG shot. Just awesome. The Blair Witch Project was an excellent one as well, the only movie thats ever creeped me out. I see some people are mentioning torture porn movies like Hostel, Texas Chainsaw Massacre, and the Saw series. I don't think those are scary, they're just gross. I'd also say zombie flicks have been so overdone that its not even funny. Have you seen the TCM? It's hardly torture porn, it was actually probably the best horror remake we've gotten since they became popular, though I did really enjoy My Bloody Valentine (for being awesomely silly) and The Crazies (for just being a good fuckin' movie).

baumer Posted September 8, 2012 Author Share Posted September 8, 2012 Great post Kevin. TCM is not torture porn at all. It was incredibly faithful to the original without copying it. It added it's own touch and imo it is the best American horror remake. It also helped that it had Daniel Pearl DP'ing it, as he did the first as well.

The Futurist Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 The reason why people tortures others in Martyrs is just beautifully macabre and existential.It is the ultimate quest for mankind after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kvikk Lunsj Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Cabin in the Woods is the only good horror film I have seen that was released in the last 15 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toymaker Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 10) Eden Lake: 4/10 - Sick. Horrible film. Do not think they should be promoting this type of behaviour. 9) The Devil's Rejects: 0/10 - Sick. Lowest common denominator horror. 8) Martyrs: N/A 7) The Crazies: 6/10 - Not bad. Enjoyable but not scary in the slightest. More of an action movie. 6) The Fourth Kind: N/A 5) I Spit on Your Grave 2010: N/A 4) Paranormal Activity 1 and 2: 10/10 - Masterpieces. 3) The Blair Witch Project: 1/10 - Crap. So crap. Give me pity, NOW! 2) The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: 4/10 - A bit crap, but not awful. 1) The Ring: 7/10 - Good. Just good. Scary, eerie, yeah, actually it was better than 'just good', now I am remembering it, it was pretty good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Marvel Fanboy Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 I have seen CITW and it definitely is far away from top 10. Seems average for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozymandias Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 Have you seen the TCM? It's hardly torture porn, it was actually probably the best horror remake we've gotten since they became popular, though I did really enjoy My Bloody Valentine (for being awesomely silly) and The Crazies (for just being a good fuckin' movie).I've only seen the 2003 remake and the 2006 sequel, and its pretty much torture porn, the sequel more so.. I agree they're not quite on the level of the Hostel and Saw movies, but they're still largely torture porn IMO. These movies work better as comedies IMO. The leads afterall(Jessica Biel, Jordana Brewster), were like the hottest chicks they could find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
