Son of Frankenstein
Outstanding cinematography.
Wellp, a lot of people conflate horror, gore, thriller, and sci-fi, probably because X movies often contain bits of all of them.
Eg, āThe Monolith Monstersā might be considered horror, because itās got villians but which are made of stone, and not alive, per se. But itās also mainly sci-fi, because there was no malevolence, just space-rocks that sucked in water and would grow to monstrous proportions, crack into pieces, and spread like weeds.
Jason/Freddy/Michael/Pinhead would probably be horror and gore.
Creep-in-the-house or other stalker flicks, more thrillers than horror, unless thereās a gore factor in which case theyād also be lumped into horror.
Old-timey flicks like Mummy/Frankie/Wolfieā¦ horror, I imagine, but few if any jump-scares that seem to permeate āmodernā horror.
āThe Hound of the Baskervillesā, implicit horror, later revealed to be purely of earthly origin, soā¦ thriller?
Eh, I like most of them, whatever theyāre called.
You left out a major factor in the popularity of modern horror/slasher movies, the frequent need of the young actresses to shower, thank goodness showering didnāt figure into the roles of Boris Karloff and Bela Lugosi.
Horror flicks are my favorite genre of movies.
I will probably end up watching every single scary movie on Amazon Prime, and Netflix while we wait LOL.
Depends on movie.
Evil dead with memorable Bruce Campbell or Shaun of the dead sure.
Alien, The shining, The thing, hilarious Dead donāt die, From Dusk Till Dawn, Grindhouseā¦

Love them!
I have some preferences that take some good ones down a peg and elevate mediocre movies that follow my ārulesā.
Example: An American Werewolf in London lost points because the werewolf doesnāt walk on 2 legs (my werewolf rule).
The Howling on the other hand was an okay movie but the werewolf was perfect - many added points especially because it was a practical effect.
Itās been a tradition to watch at least 1 horror movie every night in October.
I remember that one, I agree, good flick!
The reviews do indicate that Cats is a horror-ific disaster of a movie. I watched the trailer, yup it looks pretty lame.
I actually got a copy, browsed through it, and yeah, itās pretty scary.
Iām an essential employee and working overtime. I donāt have time to watch movies and thanks to you guys, Iām losing even more sleep now priorities!!!
Umm, youāre welcome?
Yāall fans of horror might like this shorty:
The Terminator Trailer - As a romance movie.
I like sci-fi horror movies. āAlienā was the most brilliant one Iād ever seen. āAliensā was a good follow-up. They all sucked after that. āPrometheusā was OK, but I think it couldāve been much better. āThe Thingā from the 1980ās was excellent. A lot of sci-fi horror movies since the proliferation of advanced CGI are often weakly or poorly written, with most of the effort going into intense gore & convincing CGI. For example, āSunshineā had so much promise. Started out so well. Then went so wrong.
Yes, from true horror to Evil Dead 2 to robot holocaustā¦
Keeping up with the Kardashians. Thatās a scary bunch.
