Horror Flicks?

[Sublime]

Need some pee your pants scarry movies to fill up the queue with.

Suggestions? Ghosts scare the piss outta me but I am open to anything.

If you're more into thrillers as opposed to blood and guts, two recent good ones (IMHO) are The Mothman Prophecies and The Others.

I think most of the best straight horror flicks came out of the 80's. Some of my faves:
Hellraiser 1 & 2 (by 3 they were stretching)
The Omen 1 & 2
Phantasm 1 & 2

Quick trivia question: Which one of the above-mentioned films had a piece of its audio show up in a Greg Stump flick?

More disturbing than scary, maybe, but House of 1000 Corpses is great. Devil's Rejects is good too.

The classics: Halloween, The Excorcist, The Omen. When Mike Myers sits up and pulls the knitting needle out of his eye I was SCREAMING at the Television when I saw it as a kid. "TURN AROUND!!!!"

Try look for the original Japanese versions of The Grudge, Ring etc, for a good mindfucking. The westernized remade versions seem somewhat diluted in comparison.

Tales From the Crypt

I still remember Santa's arm.

Really? Maybe one or two scenes at most. I expected it to be shit your pants scary, but of course the movie did not deliver.

While the ending was incredibly cheesy, I thought "Signs" was pretty scary and utilized some classic filming techniques.

You and me both. I was totally on board with that flick until the last 15 minutes. What a fuggin' waste. The leg in the corn field, the video footage from Mexico, the fingers under the door...fuck yeah! The accident that killed his wife, the fact that M. Night Scamaman put himself in the flick, the goddammned "swing away" or whatever the fuck he said....NOOOOOOOO!!!! This movie gets me so worked up every time I think about it. I want to punch M. Not Hitchcockmilan in face.

Not so much horror as action with a bit of horror throw in.

Dog Soldiers
Brotherhood of the Wolf
28 Days Later
Dawn of the Dead Remake
Shawn of the Dead (for a good chuckle)
Bubba Ho Tep (Bruce Campbell as Elvis? Hell yeah)
I agree with Devils Rejects - 70's ish horror.

You can't beat the classics -

The Omen (Damien, I do this for you. Holy snikeys that is freaky.)
Exorcist (Zoinks!)
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (lo budget makes it spooky. And that chick can scream)
Alien

The Shining.
