It's probably both. I haven't seen the rest of the Saws so I couldn't really say.

I think Saw is winning so far though. They're up to 6 now, aren't they? FD has 5.

The only Saw movie I actualy like (and still kind of love) is the first one. I LOVED that epic part at the end where Jigsaw gets up with the awesome theme song, that just blew my mind to hell and back. The rest, I just put them in torture porn, because, honestly, that's what they are. (And *censored* that god damn needle pit from 2 I think.)

My favorite horror movie though is... ehhh... I kind of don't know really. I'm trying to think of horror movies and the only thing that I can come up with is From Dusk Till Dawn if that counts. (And I kind of only vaguely remember this movie). Maybe Army of Darkness (I need to rewatch that.)

Oh wait no, does Let the right one in counts? I've seen people say it's horror. I kind of see it and I kind of don't, but I like that movie. Although I've seen 2 version of it, the one I own has a crazy cat lady in it that wasn't in the other, and something about a burning bed that, again, I don't remember much of. I haven't seen the other one I've seen when I rented it for the first time again for some reason. That's weird.

Let the Right One In is a Swedish film that I don't think is really consudered horror. I haven't seen it but it comes off to be as a story about two people where one person happens to be a vampire so somethings are bound to happen.

Let Me In is the American made version of the same movie, and from what I heard leans more towards horror than the original did.

Ohhhh, I think the first one I saw was Let Me In, but never saw it again, and I somehow manage to buy the Sweddish version O.o That explains a lot. Yeah, that's what I taught, it wouldn't be considered horror.

I think it was first translated and brought over, then it was remade. I think a similar thing happend with Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. One of the movies was translated from Swedish and another was made in the United States.

Yeah, my Swedish teacher talked about it but I missed the Nordic club film night when they showed it, in Swedish of course. No English language films allowed!

Two movies that I liked, while not very common, were well made horror films. Not sure if they were Hollywood or independant. Frailty was the first one, about a son narrating the story of how he came to learn who a serial killer was that is currently attacking people. Less horror, more psychological. Deathwatch was the other. I picked up that one at the rental place because I am interested in war movies. It was about a haunted trench in WWI and had Andy Serkis in it (Golum from LOTR). My favourite scene was of a guy caked head to toe in mud, no part of him visible until he opened his eyes. I remember imagining the work it must have taken to pull that off for make-up.

For another not-so-well known (as far as I'm aware) slasher/b-grade movie, I like Dog Soldiers. Soldiers get holed up in a house and must fight werewolves. Pretty basic plot, but I like it because the werewolves are done with animatronics and puppetry rather than computer and it's neat to see, and because the men getting killed are soldiers, so they can actually put up an admirable fight (*really* admirable fight) instead of quivering and being eaten.

Frailty I'm pretty sure is American but Deathwatch and Dog Soldiers are both European. Deathwatch is UK and Germany while Dog Soldiers is UK and Luxembourg (and apparently USA as well checking IMDB).

Oh, and gorey, bloody, death-every-two-minutes slasher fans should check out Hatchet and Hatchet 2, but mostly Hatchet. Horror movie produced and I think directed by Kane Hodder, stuntman who played Jason in most of the Friday the 13th films, minus Freddy vs. Jason. Takes place in the Bayou outside of New Orleans and the cameos are amusing. :). Movie still makes me edgy.

I love Ginger Snaps. Freddy Krugger. 80's horror in general. B-rated is awesome. Ghost Ship had the craziest awesome beginning in a movie ever.

I love almost any horror movie really the worse it is I will usually like it better because I do like to mix my horror with comedy especially unintended comedy

Hatchet has some pretty graphic ways to kill people. The sequel even more so. I think that's part of what Hodder had in mind.

I remember Ginger Snaps! That movie apparently had a pretty good reputation as an independant film. They talked about it on a documentary I watched on Canadian horror films (apparently we have something of a reputation for those). It was interesting look at the differences between American and Canadian horror film. Never saw the sequel though.

I've seen Ghost Ship several times. It's one of those movies I turn to when I see it on TV. :)

Night for old movies! The Legend of Hell House (1958) was on TV, and now it's House on Haunted Hill with Vincent Price. (I've seen the remake several times) I like these old movies sometimes. Didn't get to see all of Hell House though, might have to watch that one again. The set design is neat.


EDIT: aaaand wow. Cheesiest ending ever. If I weren't tired at the time I would have been near hysterics I think. As it was all I was inclined to hang my jaw like I was trying to say something while nothing came out and raise one eyebrow, which I'm sure was reflexive anyway. I like Vincent Price though. He's neat just to listen to.

I just watched Red State. Which apparently is horror... but I don't know what to classify it as really.

Red States? Wasn't that a war movie? Also, is Species considered horror movie? I kinda like the first one (I just baught the whole collection for 10$ lol I didn't know there was a 4th one O.o). Although I don't remember much of them, except that Sil had tentacle nipples...thing. (yupe, that's what I remember from the whole movie lol).

Speaking of buying, I also got Let me in, wich is the other version I talked about when I mentionned Let the right one in. So now I have both :D
