[quote name='Noodle Pirate!']I don't normally watch horror movies, but Dog Soldiers has always been my favorite.[/quote]
The last thread I did for this, there were a bunch of folks that loved that movie. Never saw it, but I am definitely going to rent it to watch before All Hallow's Eve.
I don't know if you would consider it horror, but Sunshine left me feeling all freaky inside. Maybe it's cause I'm playing Dead Space right now, too. Or maybe it's cause watching skin pulled from an arm is a little too much for this guy.
[quote name='SoonerMatt']Probably Halloween. I don't watch horror movies on Halloween, I watch Rocky Horror Picture Show.[/quote]
Haha! You stole my comment!! I was coming in to say "I'm not really a horror/scary movie fan, so I'll go with Rocky Horror Picture Show since it has the word 'Horror' in it "
I also like the Nightmare Before Christmas (and corpse bride) but those aren't really "scary" in a sense.
How about that one with Johnny Depp where they eat people? I remember that being scary!
And mine are probably going to end up being Dead Alive (sheer mindless gore), Evil Dead, The Thing and I kinda want to say Slither, simply because it was a horror/comedy, but it was fun the whole way through.
The sequel ("Return Of The Night...") provided my friends and I with lots of entertainment based on the most random quotes in that film.
"You'll shut your mouth if you like your job!"
"How do you kill something that's already dead?"
"Send more...paramedics."[/quote]
Woah, woah, woah. That's Return of the Living Dead, to you! And calling it a sequel is... well, that shit's complicated, alright?
Having said that, I was gonna come in here specifically to recommend that movie. The Tarman is still the greatest movie monster ever made.

I know, I know. It's not considered canon because Romero had nothing to do with it. There's been so many of the damn things it gets hard to keep track.
Night, Dawn, Day, Land, right?
Return Of The Living Dead is hilariously cheesy though. The headless cadaver running around the lab was awesome.
Wasn't there another one with cholo zombies? I remember so many of them (mostly in pieces, so it becomes hard to differentiate between them), I have trouble keeping them straight.
Just for the record - Return of the Living Dead looks like a cheesy-as- B-(or maybe Z-)movie that's so bad it's good. That is not the case. Mostly. It has those elements, and it uses them well. But it... its value is not cheese derived. That's not the point. It's a genuinely good movie. With prosthetic crotches. And Indian corpse smuggling. And graveyard rave parties. And the most sympathetic character is a Nazi. And...[quote name='JJSP']cholo zombies?[/quote]
Wait, what? Cholo zombies? Either I didn't pay enough attention to Return, or one of us doesn't know what "Cholo" means.

I don't think it was Return. There were a few sequels made for Return (more of the whole Romero/Russo bitchfest). One of them featured a Mexican "cholo" street gang getting their asses kicked by some girl zombie. If you're up for a laugh, give it a rent as it completely drops the humor from Return and tries to be serious.
Return Of The Living Dead - features zombies that dance naked in graveyards and dudes who cremate themselves
Return Of The Living Dead II - features zombies eating hamburger meat as bait and getting electrocuted using powerlines and a fenced in bridge
Return Of The Living Dead 3 - features nothing of value save for some vaguely S&M zombie chick who cuts herself to prevent her hunger for brains
Trivia - The film's (Return) German title is 'Verdammt, die Zombies kommen', which is roughly Oh Crap, the Zombies Are Coming.
By far the scariest movie I have seen in the last 10 years. Best to know as little as possible going into the film. Its definitely worth a rental.[/quote]
Oh, man. I just watched that the other night. I wasn't sure I was going to make it through it which is weird for me because some of my favorites include takashi miike stuff like Audition.
Which leads me to second the reccomendation for Inside and add a recommendation for Audition - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0235198/ . You should go into Audition knowing as little as possible too.

[quote name='JJSP'] Return Of The Living Dead - features zombies that dance naked in graveyards and dudes who cremate themselves[/quote]Also, NAZIS! And I don't mean, like... "That guy's a ing Nazi sometimes," or, "American History X" Nazi... I mean, motherer was a Nazi.
[quote name='JJSP'] Return Of The Living Dead II - features zombies eating hamburger meat as bait and getting electrocuted using powerlines and a fenced in bridge[/quote]Never watched it, but I always thought that using electricity to kill them was a ing cop-out. They're supposed to be unkillable - keep 'em that way!
[quote name='JJSP']Return Of The Living Dead 3 - features nothing of value save for some vaguely S&M zombie chick who cuts herself to prevent her hunger for brains[/quote]To be fair, a minor plot-point from the first one was "getting ed up = reduced bloodlust".
[quote name='JJSP'] Trivia - The film's (Return) German title is 'Verdammt, die Zombies kommen', which is roughly Oh Crap, the Zombies Are Coming.[/quote]Best movie title ever?
What the you looking here for? That was a rhetorical question, dumbass.

The first Alien movie. When I was little we were all bored watching it with our parents not really paying attention, then..... splat...outta the guys chest. scared the crap out of me. A few years later I watched the whole thing and scary and tense as all heck the first time you watch it.
I was coming in to say "I'm not really a horror/scary movie fan, so I'll go with Rocky Horror Picture Show since it has the word 'Horror' in it 
in' costume? It's a *way of life*!"
