what's your favorite horror movie of all eternity

I think I know what yours is.
Mine is probably... hmmm... "From Hell It Came!". Wait. No. "Night of the Living Dead".

I tend to like horror movies with a religious aspect to them. Demonic possession and shit like that. Probably The Exorcism of Emily Rose, even though it wasn't really scary.

hmmm .... Right now my first choice would be 'The Exorcist'

Nosferatu Classic.

I don't know if it is horor, but Misery was pretty fucked up and scary.
Untill I read the book, and found out about all the gory shit Annie did was cut out of the movie. In the book, she runs over a cops head with a big riding lawnmower!

I like all horror movies...since each one brings something different to the table...but I like Tale of two sisters..

Aliens. ..

Halloween...

The Obama administration.

Repulsion.

easy!
 

it would have to be DEAD ALIVE. the MOST classic zombie gore scene, in my opinion... (the lawnmower, guts, pink goo everywhere...) love it.
thats for gore/zombies deathrock horror shlock stuff.

for spooky up-all-night-scared-in-bed movie, i will have to say THE EXCORIST.

Hmmm...
Below.

Event Horizon.

Creepy dude from Jurassic Park meets space poltergeists.

I still enjoy Hellraiser 2 though, the first one was pretty good.. but I'm apparently against sticking someones fleshless finger in my mouth and suckling. I'm drawing the line there on kinky.

Event Horizon was incredible and actually scary. Good choice

Dead Alive was good too, though more funny than horrifying.

I'd say Clive Barker's The Thing, Susperia and Tenabrae are my faves.

Definitely the only horror movie that's actually scared me.

The Thing was great, I found that in the 5 dollar bin the other day and claimed it before anyone else could get their hands on it.

Shutter..(the original Thailand movie, not the Hollywood remake)
Iwatch it 3 times and It still scare the hell out of me.

Hmmm...

I think that I might have to go with Feast. I've seen so many horror films and it's impossible to be able to compare some of them. Evil Dead 2 is up there, as in Dead Alive. Undead is a tremendous zombie movie, but then again the Poltergeist movies are pretty fucking terrifying, as well as the Phantasm series.

The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari.
:)

Phantasm by far is my favorite with Hellraiser a close second and Puppet master the early episodes a third.

Can't say that I have one.

evil dead series, hellraiser, the of living dead series, poltergeist, the excorsict,the classic universal monster stuff, peter jacksons old comedy horror movies and the return of the livind dead 1 and 2 for some reason I love those, I have them on dvd but for some reason i'll dig out my vcr and watch the vhs copies of them I have ah nostalgia

Dracula...the one that turned horror mainstream

I have a thing for supernatural horror. I'm not so much into the slasher genre.
I've recently also been building up my Asian horror collection, since those folks know what is really scary. Some of my favorites: Dark Water, Pulse, Ring 0: Birthday, Ring, Ring 2 and Reincarnation. Also, I found Dead Silence extremely unsettling, simply because I don't trust ventriloquists' dummies...

Fame.................................

I could pick any of a number of mainstays of the horror film genre, but for this thread I'll highlight The Phantom of the Opera (1989) starring Robert Englund in the title role. It isn't flawless, by far, but Englund gives an excellent performance that shows his depth as an actor outside of his usual role as Freddy. He displays a variety of emotions, ranging from psychopathic, sadistic killer to an almost childlike wonder. Also, the production values and musical score are quite good. Well worth a watch if you haven't seen this largely overlooked film.

Dunno why, but I've always loved "Captain Clegg". It's working title in the U.S. was "Night Creatures".

Inland Empire is the only movie in existence that has satisfactorily chilled me to the bone into paralyzed stupor.

Either Nomads or The Legend of Hell House, I can't decide.

The Devils, Rec, Twins of Evil, Eraserhead; not that many, really. I find Nightmare on Elm Street more interesting than I used to. Creep wasn't bad, cheap and slasher-esque as it was - ditto The Devil's Rejects. Good horror is very difficult to make.

House of 1000 corpses, probably. It isn't exactly "horror" per se, but a bit more gore, but I'm simply addicted to it.

SAW series d00d im such a huge fan of i even have the puppet

I love and would recommend Jack Be Nimble, Santa Sangre and Suspiria.

Pumpkinhead is the scariest movie I've ever been.
I literally threw the tape away because I was so scared of it.
But I would say probably Signs because it's about ALIENS!
Any movie with ALIENS in it, I'm terrified of.
You can't make me watch it!

My top candidates are J-horror.

The Ring series, Audition, etc.

Oh, and Hellraiser.

Evil Dead
Halloween
Basket Case
Nightmare On Elm Street
Dawn Of The Dead
Friday the 13th
Night Of The Creeps
Braindead

Shaun of the Dead

A cross between Suspiria or 1987's Hellraiser.

For Sci-fi horror Aliens is my favorite, for just horror I would say the Halloween series up till number five and excluding number three.

Ha well I'm kind echoing the post above me but I have to say Alien, the original not the sequel.

But for an "actual" horror film I have to go with The Texas Chainsaw Massacre.

My favorite horror movie of all time would have to be "In the Mouth of Madness"

Suspiria would probably be my all-time favorite. I really hope a remake remains the stuff of unpleasent nightmares.

Rosemary's Baby.
