Halloween - it scared the bejaysus out of me when I was younger and sparked my interest for all things scary and well, Halloweeny.

Sinister- the only film to have genuinely creeped me out in a long time

Not so much a post on best horror film but about a mockumentary that I think was aired in the early 90s,I think on BBC,does anyone remember “Ghostwatch” and the hysteria it created? Apparently it is still banned from been aired on the telly as viewers thought it was real and that an actual poltergeist was taking place live in front of the cameras ,Michael Aspel was presenting the programme

Anything from Michael Haneke is utterly unnerving.

I thought a lot about including Funny Games...the original as opposed to the scene for scene remake, not that it was bad, just puzzling as to why he did it.

Still the coldest, rawest depiction of evil as matter of fact on film. The horror was not gore or shock but the opposite, how very mundane it is for the protagonists.

Sinister is a good shout. The tapes he watches back.....so so unnervingly creepy.

I haven't watched it but the 2014 Australian movie 'The Babadook' URL="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Babadook"]Wikipedia info[/URL was highly rated.

It got unanimous praise alright, but I'll never understand it. It was, in my opinion, a terrible, terrible film. Same with The Witch, I don't understand the acclaim at all.

Love the original wickerman, the original subtitled Japanese Ring gave me nightmares. If comedy horror is your thing, try dig up a film called 2000 maniacs. It was made in late 50s early sixties long before the slashers became the rigeur.

The 2011 version of The Thing was not a remake, it was a prequel.

No horror films scare me at all.
They either annoy me, or make me laugh, or both, these days

I saw Gremlins when I was 8 it must have been the last time a horror film scared me.

Return of the Living Dead.

Most of the best horror films were made in the 1970s and 80s.

The Exorcist
The Shining
Psycho
Carrie
The Fog

Honourable mentions to:
Hellraiser
Aliens
Nightmare On Elm Street
Cannibal Holocaust
Prince Of Darkness
It
The Wicker Man
The Eye (Japanese Version)
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Salem's Lot

Practically all the remakes are utter sh*te. Nearly all the sequels too, with honourable exceptions being Aliens, Halloween 2, Halloween 3 and Hellraiser 2.

Vincent Price was both funny and chilling in the 1973 horror "Theatre of Blood". The best Shakespearean inspired death was the victim being force fed their pet poodles in a pie. Was totally squirming and so well acted.

The Grudge western version and Japanese original.

Forgot about this. Agree it's brilliant. The 80's and to a lesser extent the 70's (IMO) were definitely the best times for horror.

Audition is another great film.
