My favorite B horror film is 'Night of the Demons' (1988). Anyone seen it?

I have so many scary movies on my shelf that I've lost count.

I extended/revised my list. I also re-organized by categories:
I. The Masters
II. The Auteurs
III. Genre Films

I LOVE horror films, although I'm not a huge fan of slasher films. I'd say my favourites are 'Suspiria', 'The Exorcist', 'Rosemary's Baby' and 'Night of the Demon'.

'Hocus Pocus' too, although I guess that's not technically a horror film...

Totally forgot to put The Company of Wolves on my list - it's a brilliant film, really out there!

I actually hate the film adaptation of "The Company of Wolves". Angela Carter's original story is so much better. We were forced to watch the film in English. Bad tiiiimes.

Some of my favourites are
The Mothman Propechies - this one actually really really **** me up but it's just so GOOD
The Others
The Village

The Descent
Session 9
Pumpkinhead
Let The Right One In
The Orphanage
The Sentinel (1977)
Phenomena (Dario Argento)
She Creature (killer mermaid...how fun is that)
Mimic
Deadbirds
May
Triangle
Drag Me To Hell
Trick r Treat
Phantasm (still freaks me out)
Cemetery Man (for the hilarity)
Midnight Meat Train
Ghost Ship

So many more...can't think of them.

Hey! People are picking more than three. For once in my life I followed the rules, and I want others to do the same.

'Sleepwalkers'

There's so many!!

I found it just disturbing enough that I needed to pause, eat some dinner with ALL THE LIGHTS ON and then I could resume watching it.

Too funny (what did you have for dinner? Meat?). I got really, really worked up when the photographer's girlfriend is searching the Butcher's apartment, including pausing. This coming from someone generally desensitized to horror films.

* Ginger Snaps
* House Of Wax (Original)
* Theatre Of Blood
* Thir13en Ghosts

How could I forget Thir13en Ghosts?!!? I ****ing love that movie! I've never seen this Ginger Snaps movie you guys talk about tho...

Yes! I love it. There is a remake of it that came out recently I believe and it is on instant streaming on Netflix so I've had it in my queue for a few months now, but haven't watched it yet. Have you seen it?
