My friend is throwing a big party this Friday and we plan to watch a horror movie or two at night. Any recommendations?

Unfortunately the only way to enjoy a good scary movie it to watch it on your own in a empty house in the dark where your imagination can get away from you.
With a bunch of friends it becomes a laugh fest.
But for a little creep, I would suggest.
What lies beneath
Final destination 1 & 2
The Exorcist

NopeâŚyou got to watch, âFreddy Vs Jasonâ. Itâs out on DVD and itâs a kick @$% flick. There are only a few chilling horor style scenes in each style(freddy dream style/jason hacker style), the rest of it is the best fight you ever wanted to see short of âAlien vs Predatorâ (which is due out in a year btw)

you could always play hide and seek in the dark. :sure:
Donât worry, the idea will sound better once you guys are inebriated.

Pitchblack with Vin Desle (sp?)

Ravenous - story of canibals/vampires in the rocky mountains during the 1800âs

Donât listen to upuaut
Freddy vs Jason is terrible, he is just upset that he actually paid money to go to the movies to see it, and figures if he had to suffer through it, then the rest of the world should have to as well.
Nah, only JokingâŚ.
I watched it a week ago and didnât think that much of it, it was slightly better than Jason X.
How do you upset Freddy ?
Ask him âŚâŚ. Whoâs your daddy !

28 Days Later
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
âŚand that is pretty much all the semi-horror movies Iâve watched đ
[size=1] **EDITED: thx to IlikePie for pointing out that 28 Days and 28 Days Later are not the same films!** [/size]

Actually Iâm with Kirupaâs first suggestion. Donnie Darko is a fantastic film and really gets you thinking. When me and my friends watched it, we took 2 hours to see the film and another 2 hours debating what we thought actually happened and why⌠đ

Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Yeah that was good, a classicâŚâŚ Just be warned !
DO NOTâŚâŚ REPEATâŚ. DO NOTâŚ. under any circumstances mistake that for.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The next generation
Staring Rene Zellweger and Mathew Macohay.
I had the unfortunate pain of having to watch this a couple of days ago.
Let me assure you that being hung by your balls upside down while being set alight and having your nails pulled, would seem like heaven compared to watching this movie !

haha - Kit, I still donât quite understand what happened in Donnie Darko đ
EDIT: Rene doesnât seem like one of those actresses who could pull off a horror movie imo đ

We _think_ we worked it out, but then one of them suggested another theory and that sparked the whole thing off again. I donât think we ever reached a satisfactory conclusion, other than the director leaves it up to the viewer to make his own decisions. :sure:
Well worth checking out the website though, after youâve watched the film of course. Now thatâs how Flash should be used⌠đ

No I have not experience thisâŚâŚ hee hee
But when the thought of that movie came to my mind I crawled under the table and sat there shivering with fear.
I had managed to block it from my mind, I had forgot I saw it until Kirupa mentioned the first.
Unfortunately there are no words that can describe the pain of seeing this movie. If Satan ever sees this movie, he with turn hell into a movie theater and play this movie over and over again for eternityâŚ.
Nah he wouldnâtâŚâŚ even he wouldnât be that cruel

Well I was going to try and rent Donnie Darko until I saw this
> the director leaves it up to the viewer to make his own decisions.
I really hate thatâŚ. I paid money to be told a story, I donât want to have to use my imagination !
âLost in Translationâ would have been good if it didnât screw you with a non-ending.

Well I actually saw an illegal dvd copy of it but donât tell anyone. I would not have paid a dime to see the movie, but a friend of mine had it and said it was fun to watch, so I checked it out. I still contend that it is the best of any of those movies between either style⌠is that saying much? Of course not itâs freddy and jason weâre talking about, not Jack Nicholson in âThe Shiningâ
perspective man⌠perspective. đ
(also the reason why I made another post with some more serious flicks off of my favorites list.:))

Donnie Darko was a good movie and I kinda like how directorâs intentionally cause you to think more about the movie than what is explicitly explained during it. But Donnie Darko is one of a kind. It makes you question about reality itself, and all those âwhat ifâ scenarios. Movies like these take at least two or more viewings to get an understanding of whatâs going on. Itâs a good movie nevertheless; if youâre not the philosophical type, then DD may not have such a great effect on you.
