Having A Horror Marathon

[DJ Nocker]

Im starting @ noon today (wednesday) and ending at noon (thursday) so I need a couple movies to get me through the night. I have all the movies I could possibly need but im just wondering, what movies would you watch in a giant halloween horror marathon? Im a fan of old and new horror (depending) so throw all your opinions out there

My first movie was/is the original texas chainsaw massacre.

Now here's the thing. A lot of it depends on what KIND horror you like.

Splatterfests or Thrillers.

And by the level of the scare factor (King Kong???)

Many of these aren't the scariest, just the best made, in their opinion

Freaks isn't even scary until the end (although it does kick major ass)

And anyone that places Evil Dead above the greatest Horror Comedy of all time Evil Dead 2 is a f&^*ing moron.

Nosferatu is great.

So is Rosemary's Baby (though they're a little tame)

The Shining's a good one.

Suspiria would be a safe bet The trailer has one of the best lines ever (The Only Thing More Terrifying Than The Last 12 Minutes Of This Film...

Are The First 92.) And the music's awesome!

Scary movies, hmm, anything with Paris Hilton would be frigtheningly painful to watch.

[odims_sphere]

it comes from toxie's top ten. Candy bought it, they are the most terribly great movies ever! including the classic "Space Zombie Bingo".

[Falstaff]

How the original Black Christmas didn't make that list....yech.

Anyhow, can't go wrong with Friday the 13th 1-4, Psycho, Vertigo, Evil Dead, Happy Birthday to Me, The Prowler.

[Slept with ghost]

And anyone that places Evil Dead above the greatest Horror Comedy of all time Evil Dead 2 is a f&^*ing moron.

this is a list of the greatest horror movies of all time not greatest horror/comedy movies so of course evil dead would take the lead over dead by dawn because the first movie was meant only to be horror (and dont get me wrong Im not bashing you dead by dawn happens to be my favorite movie of all time)
