What are your favorite horror/gore/very disturbing films
 

I recently saw The Devil's Rejects and From Dusk Till Dawn.. both way out there with lots of serial killings, terrific gore, and savage evil people. Good stuff, can't believe I missed them when they first came out.

Peter Jackson (Lord of the Rings) did two excellent gore movies early in his career which are hilarious.. Bad Taste and Dead Alive. Dead Alive has to have one of the most over-the-top bloodletting scenes of all time involving a guy wielding a lawnmover against a house full of undead.

I've also enjoyed reliving all the classic zombie movies with my teenage son.. Dawn of the Dead holds up pretty good after all these years.

What are some other really graphic horror movies you enjoy? I'm looking for more movies to add to my blockbuster queue.

To this day this movie scared the [censored] out of me:

Dark Night and the Scarecrow

P.S. apologize for the first link posting (which was incorrect)

There have been some pretty disturbing films recently that -- even if they're not great -- are just sick and downbeat enough to leave you pretty shaken for a while: the two I'm thinking of are WOLF CREEK and THE DESCENT.

Blade II, or really, any Guillermo del Toro besides Hellboy(a good movie, just not a gory horror movie)

I would bet that House of 1,000 Corpses would fit together with Devil's Rejects.

Hostel

Jacob's Ladder

And basically anything directed by David Cronenberg

Edit: My favorite horror movie is the original Nightmare on Elm Street, fwiw.

I loved The Devil's Rejects.

Check out Cannibal Holocaust if you are looking for some gore factor.

Favorite horror movie though? Texas Chainsaw Massacre, a real classic.

Seriously disturbing? Funny Games

Cheesy but horrifyingly terrifying? Event Horizon

Romantic horror comedy adventure? Joyride

Good-natured goretastic fun? Evil Dead 2...if you liked Dead Alive you'll get a kick out of ED.

Smack around the face? Yes please

Ya was that freeking awesome or what!?! Rob Zombie is the man, what a talented fellow he is. Great acting throughout. I never saw 1000 corpses but my friend did, he said it was pretty lame, not even in the same league as Devil's Rejects.

I forgot about Hostel, ya that one had me creeped out too.. loved it!

And yes Evil Dead 2 is a classic. I remember watching it with friends on Halloween many years ago and we were all freaked out by it.

Absolutely! Another Michael Haneke film, The Piano Teacher, is twisted and disturbing in a completely different way. Both are excellent.

Audition and Oldboy are awesome and have been discussed here ad nauseam.

Come and See is probably the best of them all and is never really discussed anywhere from what I can tell.

And if you want a documentary, Night and Fog is the most [censored] up thing I've ever seen. Visions from it still haunt me several years later.

I actually watched this yesterday. I was super psyched cuz all I had heard was good things about it. OMG, it sucked so bad [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img]


all,

I didnt like Devils Rejects at all, and I LOVED house of a 1000 corpses. Tho rejects was a much more disturbing film I will admit.

Im a texas chainsaw massacre fan, and the original exorcist still creeps me the hell out to where I avoid going to bed after watching it.
