thanks bro. Its all subjective, but I listed what I think are the must haves. You'll notice I left off some of Fulci's other films as well as Argento and I also left off some of the obvious films.

BTW....Im still shopping THE TURNPIKE KILLER statede but I did score a deal in France. Im going to give it a few months and if I can't reach a deal in the states that I like, we'll self release. I'll let everyone know when and if that time comes.

here are some of my favorites i think you might like.. some might not be straight "horror" and most you have probably seen but are pretty gory and great movies

nightmare and friday series (duh)

strangeland dawn of the dead night of the living dead

return of the living dead the dead hate the living day of the dead frailty in the mouth of madness night of the comet

severence puppet master series pumpkinhead trick r treat (dumb but lots of fun) FEAST (1 only) childs play

sorority babes in the bowlorama (yes its cheesy as hell but it brings back memories ) chopping mall 976-evil (fun when i was a kid) lol

well thats enough of my crap movies for now

I certainly will have to start hunting through ebay for many of these. I will try and post a list or pics of my collection. It is always fun to me to see what people think are great horror and so on and also the fact it can spark up some great conversations.

Evan pretty much covered every posble sub genre in his list, but I think we need to add some universal and hammer clascs on there, as well as a few more werewolf films....LOL...

take care, Tommy

speaking of Hammer films....thats my one weak area. There are soooo many box sets out there. Tommy, do you have or know of one you can recommend? I have the Lee films on individual dvds but I'd get a set that includes them as well if its worth it.

As for Universal, you can't get any better than the Legacy Collection imo.

Here ya go Evan,

All great Hammer films, though I haven't seen Paranoiac...

Okay, I know someones bound to give me shit about his, but I'm supprised no one mentioned Let The Right One In. I own it and must say its an extremely good film.

My favourite film of 2009 and one of the best of the past 10 years. Excellent movie. Yes, a must have.

I find there are always some people feel get left out and to me that is why I love this thread or others like it as it gives you a well rounded idea of ones to at least check out or buy.

Well you should start at the beginning, Nosferatu, The cabinet of Dr. Calagari, All Universal Monster Movies, All Hammer films, Last Man on Earth (Vincent Price), All Vincent Price films actually, Ed Wood films (Plan 9, Bride of the Monster, etc.), all Romero dead films, Texas Chainsaw mas.( the original, & TCM 2 is as far as I'd go w/ them), Fulci films, Argento films, Evil Dead Trilogy, Hellraiser, Childs Play, Maniac, Cannible Holocost, Pumpkinhead, Toolbox Murders, The Thing (original & Carpenters), Halloween (1, 2, 4, 5, and R.Z.'s H & H2), House of 1000 Corpses, Devils Rejects, And A Clockwork Orange for good measure. I could go on for a while but the baby's crying.....hope that helps a bit...Skubis

I could not agree more...

Here are some that you may or may not have thought of that I LOVED growing up.

Mind you that some of them may be corny now but I still love them :)

1) American Gothic 2) Fright Night 3) Once Bitten 4) The Lost Boys 5) The Gate 6) Creepshow 7) Evil Dead

I can't believe it almost fell through the cracks except for one mention

I recommend Hellraiser, Hellraiser II Hellbound, Hellraiser Bloodline, and Hellraiser Inferno lent Hill Hills Have Eyes - 2006 The Thing Dead Birds Candyman 1 and 2 only Wishmaster 1 only The Horseman - Australian film not Dennis Quaid one Texas Chainsaw Massacre - remake ironically Friday the 13th - remake as well Masters of Horror - Pick Me Up, The Damned Thing, Valerie On The Stairs, Incident On and Off a Mountain Road Midnight Meat Train After Dark Horrorfest - Frontiers Tremors 1 and 2

This helps me out too as I am trying to pick another horror movie I have yet to see. :)

I suggest: The Beyond (I second it from the first post) City of the Living Dead (Another Fulci clasc) Dawn of the Dead (Original) Zombi (aka Zombi 2) Sleepaway Camp (Don't bother with 2 or 3. Springsteen's ster got no justice after those films lol). Return of The Living Dead (The second one isn't bad either!) Dead Snow (aka Dod Sno) Trick R' Treat An American Werewolf in London Pet Semetary Class of Nuke 'Em High Toxic Avenger Carrie Lost Boys Evil Dead (Series) Creepshow Day of The Dead American Psycho

There are so many others, a lot of good stuff from prior posts too!
