OK, so me and a friend have arranged to spend the Halloween weekend watching plenty of scary movies. So who better to turn to than my fellow Dopers to help me out.
So here are the rules:
-
It has to be a good scary movie. When I say good I mean I want a scary movie, not just a bloodbath. Hitchcock, yes…I know who you boned last spring break, Or whatever it’s called, ummmm no.
-
I need a mix of oldies and newbies.
-
They have to be available at Blockbusters. I may buy one or two really good ones but the majority will be coming from here. So no obscure Japanese imported movies with subtitles and amusing naff dubbing.
This are my possible choices so far: (in no discernable order)
Carrie
It
Psycho
The Birds
Texas Chainsaw Massacre
Night of the Living Dead
Poltergeist
The Exorcist
Nightmare on Elm Street
Rosemary’s Baby
The Omen
Evil Dead
Rocky Horror Picture Show (Tim Curry in suspenders is scary)
Halloween
The Lost Boys
Gremlins
Hellraiser
Manhunter
Ringu
Candyman
The People Under The Stairs
The Shining
