Horror Movies

I plan on watching John Carpenters "The Thing" very soon and I have some thoughts about the story line that I would like other peoples opinions on. If this is not allowed for any reason, feel free to delete this post mods =) A cut for people who dont want to read any possible spoilers I may mention!

I loved all the Saw movies from the very first to the very last (by which I mean Saw VI as I do not consider Saw:3D canon at all) and so I put together this well thought out explanation of why Saw VII negates everything we learned about Jigsaw in the first six movies and why it makes no sense. 

Warning: There are spoilers for ALL 7 MOVIES and naughty language. I do bash the Gordonites quite a bit but not overly so and if you happen to be a Gordonite, please don't skip this because of what I have to say. I urge you to challenge me if you disagree, I am nothing if I am not level headed and I love a good, mature debate. Anyway, ENJOY!

Here's yet another "feature presentation" on my horror site, a movie someone here recommended to me because I liked A Serbian Film so much.

( Salo, or the 120 Days of Sodom )
Feel free to look around the rest of the site. Great spooky pics.

Hey gang!

Posting in this community has been great fun so I decided to start my own horror community. If you get a chance, check out my entries at Spooky Poo (http://spookypoo.livejournal.com/) See you there!

I have found heaven! I run a horror blogsite but it's not community oriented. This is great!

I just finished watching Wes Craven's 1977 The Hills Have Eyes. Way better than the remake, and I really liked the remake. I get a real kick out of gore. The bloodier, the better. This one was bloody but it also worked hard to be as suspenseful as it could. The Evil Dead was incredibly bloody. Cannibal Holocaust(Italy), Meatball Machine (Japan). Anyone seen those? I like looking for rare foreign horror. And zombies. And all the old low budget B movies from the 60s and 70s. I'm trying to get my hands on A Serbian Film. Those who know me well tell me I absolutely must watch it because it is just so beyond sick. I really get off on SICK.

How exciting to be here! Watching horror movies is my favourite hobby!

PS: If you haven't seen The Human Centipede and The Human Centipede II, WATCH THEM.

Hammer Productions is producing the latest incarnation of Susan Hill's 1983 novel The Woman in Black. Based on the trailer, this film evokes a return to traditional, gore-free gothic horror and suspense storytelling. Here's a look at the trailer.



The Woman in Black is due in theaters on Feb 3 in the U.S. and Feb 10 in the U.K. It's a period piece, which pleases me greatly, although I'm still coming to terms with Daniel Radcliffe in the main role. Nothing against him as an actor but I'm still trying to remove my immediate associations to Harry Potter every time I see the guy.

I'm looking forward to this one, nonetheless. How 'bout you?

I heard The Devil Inside did obscenely well during its opening weekend in the states, bringing in over thirty million dollars. Not bad for a film budgeted at one million dollars (and one that looks pretty weak as far as horror films go.) This film has been panned by most critics but as I'm a sucker for horror films (and especially exorcism films) I'm tempted to experience this for myself. I thought I'd check in here first, though. Any thoughts?

Put your machetes away, there isn't another film. It's just the dates and days lining up again. But it's a great time to pose this question to Jason Voorhees fans: what's your favorite and least favorite Friday the 13th movie?
