What is your favorite horror movie and why?

[GTO Man]

A real classic was Night of the Living Dead. It was shot on a minimal budget and brought in alot of money. Gearge Romero was the director. There were a couple of sequels and many other movies using the same scenario. It was shot in an eery location and the premise of corpses coming to life was scary.

I saw “Shawn Of The Dead” last year. A comedy about people surviving and then living with the undead. I recommend it if you get a chance to see it.

My favorite is Alien. It showed a realistic alien, not a cartoon monster. The plot was believable and there was good attention to detail. Alien 2 was the rare sequel that was as good as the original. The rest of the Alien movies can be skipped.

[GTO Man]

Another good one was The Thing starring Kurt Russel. It was set at an artic outpost and was a remake of a movie of the same name from the 1950’s.

This is a tough question because there are so many!

My very favorite would have to be…..

‘Don’t be Afraid of the Dark’ with Kim Darby

I watched that movie when it was on TV many decades
ago. Interesting and mysterious!

Following a close second would be…..

‘The People Under the Stairs’
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105121/

This movie is horrifying and funny at the same time!
But mostly it’s funny!

What about the original “The Blob”? It was actually quite funny! Drogar-Laugh(LBG).gif
