Soumds good.

I have Insidious ready for tomorrow night and theres a few on your list i'll definitely re watch. Evil dead Trilogy will take a day and might do a Zombie weekend with friends

 

[Tonyblack]

The Evil Dead movies are comedies, aren't they? They always made me laugh.

The first isn't really but the other two are.

A film can be both a horror and a comedy.
The Army of Darkness (part 3) is definitley all comedy but the first two are a balance.
Love the ending to part 2 ( both endings cos i know dave will ask me on this)
Remember Shop Smart
Shop S Mart

 

[Dotsie]

I have Insidious ready for tomorrow night

*snore* Could not have been less scared by that film.

I'll watch some zombie films I think, and something Japanese - those people know how to write a ghost story (watching the original Grudge I almost wet my pants).

An American Werewolf in London was one of my favourites in that genre.

I definitely prefer the S Mart ending. I've got the Freddy Vs Jason Vs Ash comic series where he is now an area sales rep for S Mart.

By the way, it's Part 3...

I enjoyed it.

 

[pip]

Brilliant

I reckon i've about two hundred horrors on my hardrive so i'll get through a few

 

[meerkat]

I prefer Sleepy Hollow and not just cos it's got Johnny Depp in it, but it is creepy if you ignore the tongue in cheek humour and watch it in the dark.

Then again I don't watch Jurrasic Park, and following films, in the dark either!

 

[pip]

We'll send you a copy of Hocus Pocus to get you through halloween then

 

[meerkat]

I'll be busy that night! I have to put a few spells out, dress appropriately in Midnight and generally do witchy things. Then go to a dinner for Witches (warlocks are a Vicorian invention. Both sexes are Witches). Should be fun! (dubious).

At least I won't have to partake of barely concealed threats from 5-7 years olds regarding sweeties...I'll have eaten them all anyway!

You'll have eaten the Children or the Sweeties

 

[Bouncy Castle]

It's Alive.

This is on tonight at 12.50 on BBC2.

Just read the Wiki, and it sounds absolutely hysterical!

watched that for the first time last year at halloween... considering I don't watch horrors normally I enjoyed it, did scare the bejesus out of me though! mind I jump at any little thing in films, worst one is in the mummy with rachel weisz, I know her brothers laying in the coffin thing but still makes me jump everytime!
might watch again this year but not gonna go for anything more scary that's for sure! lol

 

[Sjoerd3000]

Does Tucker & Dales vs Evil count as horror?

 

[chris.ph]
