Page 1 of Horror recommendations please..

I have two weeks off work to recover from an operation and I`m in the mood for some serious horror films! So far I`ve watched Cannibal Holocaust, Zombi 2 and The Omen remake. Can anyone recommend some really scary or gruesome horror movies??

"It`s not a schooner, it`s a sailboat"...

The Texas Chain Saw Massacre (original)
Braindead
The Evil Dead
The Exorcist
Night of the Living Dead/Dawn of the Dead/Day of the Dead/Land of the Dead
Ring
The Vanishing (original)
Wolf Creek
Alien
Suspiria
The Eye
The Descent
The Hills Have Eyes (both versions)
and the original (and superior) version of The Omen

should see you through a couple of days!

Switchblade Romance is pretty good, and horrific at times. Have you seen that? By the way, I`ve got two weeks off work due to an operation too. Snap! :D

I`ve lined up a s*** load of things to watch. Going through Entourage Season 1 at the mo.

Dark Water (original)
Audition

Night of the Living Dead/Dawn of the Dead/Day of the Dead/Land of the DeadI also thought Zak Snyders remake was ace too.

the thing (john carpenter) those effects are still outstanding...

Cheers guys. Fancy Swichblade Romance actually. Is Braindead that Peter Jackon film where some guy goes at a load of zombies with a Lawnmower?

Yep

The Fly (remake)
Hellraiser (It will trear your soul apart!)
Child`s Play (as many as you can hack)
Cube (and the sequels if it`s your thing)
From Dusk till Dawn (George Clooney in a vampire movie - gotta be seen to be believed!)
Jeepers Creepers
Puppet Master
Nightmare on Elm Street (Johnny Depp versus Freddy Krueger - classic!)
Scream (If you want to jump out of your chair a few times, it`s great fun!)
Event Horizon (Sci-Fi Horror a la Alien)
Cabin Fever
Creep

Never has having an operation seemed so inviting! Enjoy!!! :D

Some say I`m from Biddenden. Some say my name`s Sue. Some say I`m really Marge on a mission.

As discussed before, Switchblade Romance is lame beyond belief ;)

And, since im being critical:

I still cannot beleive that the Omen only warrants an `Honourable Mention` and s*** like the Blair Witch Project get into your YTMND top 20. Call yourself a film snob.....;)

Since im here, Im a huuuuuuuuuuuge cronenberg fan so Rabid, Shivers, Videodrome, The Brood (excellent performance from Oliver Reed), Scanners, Naked Lunch and The Dead Zone. Existenz is also a good precursor to the Matrix, so is certainly worth a watch.

Hell, I would even go so far as to say he is the best thing in Nightbreed (which is also worth a watch).
