Question Best Horror film

[BTS]

Can i have friday 13th as well please paul

Oh, and someone ought to nominate Stephen King's "It". That's f***ing terrifying. And "Misery". King has done some lovely films in his time, hasn't he?!

And the original of "The Hitcher", another hugely suspensful film.

I agree about Stephen King Matt, but thought the TV series of It was quite average. Sadly IMO Misery didn't truly follow the book.

I think The Shining was the best film of King's work, and I would love to see a big screen version of The Stand my favourite King novel.

and yet, Stephen King hated Kubrick's version, and helped produce a TV version instead.

Misery is a brilliant film, IMO.

That's 'cos the TV version follows the book pretty much to the letter.

Agreed - 'twould be my 2nd nomination, ahead of the others I mentioned, if I were allowed a second.

But The Vanishing is still the number 1 scariest film I've ever seen.

For comedy value but still v.scarey at the age of 15 "An American Werewolf in London"

For quality suspense and horror "Psycho"

And for most disturbing and shocking it has to go to "Cannibal Holocaust"!

Another good book by king, I haven't seen the film tho.

 

[Crabby Shrimper]

Wont nominate it, as I'm unlikely to be around during the voting, but The Omen has always been a favourite (the original one, not the decreasingly good sequels)

Can you have more than one film? If so I'll go for "The Hitcher", one of my all time favourites. Rutger Hauer is brilliantly creepy.

Dead Calm!!!!

well I wasn't going to, but it seems like the best way to finish the nominations. I'll have a look at what other people have voted for and tie it up.
