If you into J horror or not get put off from subtitles then I highly recommend Tales of Two Sisters and Three... Extremes. It's one of the most scary J Horror films other than The Ring!

I recently saw this British flick named 'Kill List'. It's one hell of a movie, starting out as a cinema verite crime drama of sorts before veering into some truly strange and unsettling territory. Also quite funny at times, if you dig gallows humor.
Wow. I clicked on this thread fully expecting to be the only one recommending Kill List, and there it is in the very first response.

One I didn't see: Event Horizon. Sci-fi horror with more emphasis on the horror than, say, Aliens.

Classics: The Thing (1982) and The Shining.

REC was freaky as hell.

For the most part, I don't respond well to (or much respect) movies that rely entirely on jump scares or overt gimmicks.

If you like Asian horrors, try:
-Acacia: from the guy who wrote Whispering corridors I think?
-Audition: Thriller with disturbing elements. It's a bit slow at the beginning but that was deliberate.
-Dark water: Japanese version is much much much better than that crappy US version.
-The eye 1 & 2: Watch the Hong Kong version. They're wonderful films!
-Infection: A weird Japanese horror takes place in a hospital. Butt loads of mind-screw.
-Pulse: I find this pretty chilling, but most of my friends didn't like it.
-Ring 1 and 2, don't watch Zero, it kills the franchise for me.

These are the ones on top of my head, I haven't watched Whispering corridors but I heard good things about it. Ju-on is just horrible, only the first one managed to unnerve me, the second one was meh.

I only liked Dumplings in Three extremes, watched it three times plus the full-feature film twice. The others were meh.

Tales of two sisters is awesome though! << It is actually Korean btw.

a horror discussion thread, i have found my poeple.. now much of the movies that should be recommedned have been said.. so all i can add is the more extreme stuff, most are not horror but are horrific.

Martyrs (french)- oh boy, it has horror elements, and very soul crushing by the end ( prob my fav of this genre)

a Serbian film (Serbian)- just reading about it will disturb you for hours or days. also soul crushing

frontiers - i still need to see that one

high tension- still need to see that one

irreversible (french)- a rape revenge movie but filmed backwards and i believe it has the most rape scene in a movie that i have scene.

audition- has already been mentioned, i found it pretty boring for the most part.

enter the void- realistic anti-drug movie lol. and plenty of sexual scenes

antichrist- starring Willem defoe. and some horrific mutilation.

necromantic- low budget movie, and the content well its in the title.. but it wasent bad and it had a message.

all i can think of right now

The last GREAT horror movie I watched was The Thing, John Carpenter's 1982 version. That movie is fucking brilliant and I'm too happy to have inadvertedly saved it for so long.
That movie friggin' rules!

Also I can recommend Jacob's Ladder, a very unsettling film to say the least.

And Soylaris. Not a horror, nothing scary, but still one of the most disturbing things I have ever seen, and I can't explain why!

I saw the "Evil Dead" remake last week and it was surprisingly good.

Since people are bringing up Japanese films, check out Tetsuo - The Iron Man:


p.s. The full movie is in the related videos AND with English subtitles so you can watch it anytime :)
