[MarsDustDoug]

Alternative 100 list of horror flicks

GREAT list of under the radar, hard to find, ultra gory, or just plain obscure must see horror flicks! No Night of the Living Dead, TCM, Exorcist, etc kind of list.

I have seen maybe 10 or 15 on here and i must say im pretty happy with a whole mess of new flicks to check out!

[Joey Deadcat]

Leave it to Rue Morgue to know the deal!

Think I may have seen this on FB(have Rue Morgue on the list).

[KatRN05]

Out of the entire list, I've only seen three movies. I have a lot of catching up to do.

[Nate Kriepp]

Cool find, MarsDust!

Man Bites Dog is one of my favorites. It's all kinds of f--ked up.

[phee]

Nice.... I am actually quite pleased with some of the ones they included... Exorcist 3, Tetsuo the Iron Man, Changling....

[DJ Nocker]

I am going to give my opinion on all the movies I have either seen...but not to sound pretentious, alot of the movies on this list are classics, and alot of them ARENT HORROR GOD DAMNIT! I will go into it in my repsonses... Feel free to debate/discuss with me as im bored at work.

The Abominable Dr. Phibes (1971- Its ok, I would watch it again, but i would pay for it.

Alien 3: Director's Cut (1992)- Its "Alien" so I love it.

Amityville II: The Possession (1982)- Not so great, watch "The Exorcist" instead.

Angel Heart (1987)- Surprisingly good Deniro does a great job.

Battle Royale (2000)Over rated...but watchable (I hate most Asian Cinema).

Black Sabbath (1963)Classic! see it.

Black Sunday (1960)Classic! see it.

The Changeling (1980)Wow, great movie, Chilling, If anyone hasnt seen it yet, go now.

The Devil's Backbone (2001)Anything by Deltoro is beautiful.

Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1920)Yay for the classics.

The Eye (2002)Meh, didnt like it.

Eyes Without A Face (1960)The original French horror. Awesome.

Frailty (2001)Pretty good, although more of a thriller.

Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer (1990)I really want to see this, my girlfriend says its awesome.

Ilsa She Wolf of the SS (1964)If only I could find the box set for less than 90 bucks -_-

In My Skin (2002)NOT A HORROR GOD DAMNIT AHHHH super good though

Irreversible (2002) NOT A HORROR GOD DAMNIUGPGH...Still amazing

Ichi The Killer - Uncut (2001)Really cool, love the guy with the piercings.

Let's Scare Jessica To Death (1971)This movie SUCKED! UGH.

Man Bites Dog- again...Not a fricken horror movie! good though, really fun.

The Masque of the Red Death (1964) Classic

May (2002)Its ok, obviously Indie

The Mothman Prophecies (2002)It was ok...thriler

Opera (1987)Its Argento, it cant be terrible

Ravenous (1999)Every time I watch this movie, I get hungry, lmao. its good!

Santa Sangre (1989)Not...a....horror..also my least favorite Movie by Jodorwsky.

Session 9 (2001)I dont understand the hype, I couldnt get into it.

Tetsuo: Iron Man (1989)Own it, Love it. Watch "Rubber's Lover" if you like this.

The Vanishing (1988) Classic. DONT SEE THE REMAKE!

[Joey Deadcat]

Really? Haven't seen Henry? Man, I think that's the only film to ever really leave me creeped out. I could swear I was pale after that! A very disturbing film.

And, yeah, Man Bites Dog was definitely not horror; more of a black comedy.

And I never considered Nekromantik horror. A macabre film, actually.

Yea..I have been meaning to see it I know... Thank you for agreeing on Man Bites Dog though, I hear it called a horror way to often and it starts to irritate me. same with Irreversable and In My Skin.

[phee]

I agree there is a difference between scary, horrifying and a "horror movie"

Man bites dog was disturbing but not a horror movie....

I am REALLY HAPPY to see Exorcist 3 on this list.... great movie.

That is one of the big things that erk me when talking about film. Horror and disturbing are different. If Disturbing was horror, I guess we should put all the war movies ever made in there because alot of war vets are disturbed by them right? Same goes for thriller ad horror. Big difference between Mothman Prophecies and Texas Chainsaw... meh

@ marsdustdoug- It is a cool list, I hope you check out more of the movies on there.

And Henry I never really considered horror but then I suppose it could be. And Ichi is a fun, over-the-top action kinda flick! Thought the scene with the guy...splitting...was pretty cool.

I can understand Ichi being put under the "splatter" catagory, but mike' calls it a crime/action movie. God Darnit, now I want to see Henry even more... -_-

[Joey Deadcat]

"Splatter" or "splatterpunk" - those haven't been used much. Would actually fit Ichi and other bloody Japanese and German films.

Another disturbing and macabre film that sometimes gets put under "horror" is The Reflecting Skin with Viggo Mortensen. If you've never seen it check it out! Kinda leaves you with a weird, uncomfortable feeling afterwards.

Any of you blokes ever seen the movie "Felicia's Journey"?

It's another horrifying not horror movie... very good.

Will look into that one. Always feel like I'm looking for a challenge - like I wanna find a film that'll make me feel worse than Henry did. LOL

That one won't make you feel worse then Henry....

But if you want one that will (a bit off the horror track) I would recommend the film "Happiness"

[Joey Deadcat]

With Happiness I was more like "whoa-ho! that was pretty fucked-up!"

[Gaf The Horse With Tears]

Why does Shadow of the Vampire never make it on any of these lists?

[DJ Nocker]

Why does Shadow of the Vampire never make it on any of these lists?

Because people have bad taste, although I thought it was a good one, its to slow for alot of people...

IT was a good movie that mixed satire and scary well.

[Simon Bar Sinister]

what about Embrace of the Vampire?

[DJ Nocker]

what about Embrace of the Vampire?

Havent seen it, I will make a note.

[Joey Deadcat]

what about Embrace of the Vampire?

Mmmm, yeah...nothing special, really, though you get to see Alyssa Milano in a girl/girl scene...

[Joey Deadcat]

And can someone please explain Neon Maniacs to me?

[Simon Bar Sinister]

Mmmm, yeah...nothing special, really, though you get to see Alyssa Milano in a girl/girl scene...

that's what makes it special.
