Still a pretty big Stephen King fan, myself. Mostly books, that is... a lot of the screen adaptations have been less than stellar. The new IT movies are some of the better horror movies to come out recently.
The all-time creepiest/scariest movie for me is probably Event Horizon. Even though it's like 30 years old, still good.
Absolutely cannot forget the THING movies, old and new... all amazing.If you need to talk, I will listen. Leave a message and I will call you back as soon as I get it.

I am a terrible judge of this genre, and don't watch much. But I love the movie CUBERainmaker's feedback: https://www.mcarterbrown.com/forum/b...maker-feedback

I really like the movies that are either way over the top or actually do something interesting vs the typical stuff. The Troma movies are awesome (Toxic Avenger, Terror Firmer, Tromeo & Juliet, etc), Cabin In The Woods, Tucker & Dale Vs Evil, Anna Vs. The Apocalypse, and Aaah! Zombies!! are all great as well. Oh- and lots of the 80's slasher flicks: Silent Night Deadly Night, Chopping Mall, Attack of the Killer Tomatoes, Slumber Party Massacre. I also enjoyed Scream Queens. It had enough ridiculousness to it to be fun and enough horror to be interesting.
I watched the first season or two of American Horror Story and felt it started out strong but went off the rails pretty quickly. 🤷♂️Comment

Contemporarily I'm a big fan of Robert Eggers. He does a good job of making the viewer uncomfortable, but committed. Ari Aster is another director that surprised me with the quality and uniqueness of his films.
Classically I'm a big fan of John Carpenter.💀 PK x Ragnastock 💀Comment

I'm not much into horror, but I really enjoyed the recent 'Hannibal' series with Hugh Dancy and Mads Mikkelsen. Outstanding acting, and a fantastic story.
Does 'The Thing' count or is that more sci-fi? Either way, I really liked both films.“It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society.” -KrishnamurtiComment

I’m not into horror. Blood/guts/gore and jump scares don’t do it for me. Most of it seems to lack substance. Might just be me though...
I will say, though, that Ridley Scott’s Alien is a f***ing masterpiece.Comment

I get that a little bit history really makes it so nothing on TV is very scary. The bogeyman ain't got $#!+ on the real life Gilles de Rais.
And hell yes for OG Alien/Aliens. I like the newer origins stories, too, but it's not the same gritty feel as the old stuff.If you need to talk, I will listen. Leave a message and I will call you back as soon as I get it.

I’ve always been partial to Halloween 2 (the original not the Rob Zombie one). I’ve seen it dozens of times. Donald Pleasence was genuinely a good actor. If not for him it would’ve been just another run of the mill slasher flick. The series went downhill big time after 2.
As for scariest, I’d have to say The Texas Chsinsaw Massacre. Mostly because it’s based around events that actually could happen. Leatherface is actually loosely based on a real life killer. Plus the low budget look makes it almost seem like you’re right there watching the events unfold on the other side of a dirty window.Comment

Texas Chainsaw Massacre, the remake from 2003, was my first date with my wife. Funny enough she can’t watch horror movies any more and screamed during Harry Potter at Doby the house elf.
I like cheesy horror, like the original Evil Dead (Bruce Campbell ftw) and absolute crap like Black Sheep and Zombeaver.Comment
