I cannot do the lists like some of you are doing. My mood changes all the time so I can't really "plan" on watching a movie on a certain day. If I find myself with time, I watch whatever I'm in the mood for!

No, watch a Hong Kong one instead. lol I hate Korean cinema so much I'm not a good person to get an opinion from on this.CaptYamato said:Any suggestions for good Korean horror?

I'm starting to view it more as a check list than a schedule myself. lolSnaku said:Yeah, I've already completely deviated from my list. But I'll probably get to them all at some point.

I've seen all the Korean flicks suggested so far.
Watch R-Point! One of my top 5 favorite horror flicks.CaptYamato said:Any suggestions for good Korean horror?
Omega Man with Charlston Heston is yet another theatrical take on I Am Legend. It's worth checking out IMO, especially if you enjoy the concept.Marty Chinn said:Trying to keep up with this but I'm sure I'm going to have to bow out at some point since I have a new kid to take care of. I'm going to try to watch 31 movies I haven't seen before rather than take the easy route of watching something good I've already seen and hve on hand. That said, my first two movies this weekend were:
#1 - Abbott & Costello Meet Frankenstein (1948)
Figure I'd start off with something light, old, but fun. It was surprisingly less comedic and slapstick that I would have thought. Sure it has some element of comedy to it, but it was a lot more like a classic monster movie.
#2 - The Last Man on Earth (1964)
I simply saw Vincent Price was in it and said let's do this. I was actually surprised when I started to realize that this is I Am Legend. I wasn't aware that the book was made into a movie long before the Will Smith version. Really enjoyed this one despite some of the cheese of how action was done back then. Great ending too.

8BitsAtATime said:The books are great, its a great intro to Trashy flicks and alot of cool movie facts. Just to warn you the Bougieman's drawings are....alittle out there. Still I definitely recommend them. The new Cinema Sewer is coming out this month...if you preorder from him he does a sketch for you.
msdstc said:#1 House of the Devil- I loved this. Can't say I'm shocked to find it's love/hate on the internet, given it's slow pace. That being said, this is definitely one of the more tense movies I've ever seen. I thought towards the end, things started getting a bit out of hand, but it still handled it pretty well. Also recreates the 80s horror/slasher feel perfectly. Good start to the list8.5/10
JoJoShabadoo said:Too late to sign up? I have a lot of horror movies on my to watch list, I've seen very little throughout my life, most of them on tv as a kid/teen. So this should be fun. Although there's no way I'll be able to watch a movie every day, I'll just watch 2-3 a week maybe.

The Culture Vulture said:#2 - Demons - October 2nd
You know how people say certain films are meant to be seen in a theater? Demons is one of those films because 90% of it takes place inside a theater. Along with the movie's theater you get the film trope/usual suspects that would fill one. We have the teenage couple making out, we have the black group that are being way too loud, we have the cranky old couple, even a blind guy who needs the movie within a movie explained to him every couple of minutes (what?).
It took me a little while to get into Demons? Not because it took too long to get to the titular Demons but I was distracted trying to figure out where this movie was supposed to be taking place. The movie is billed as Dario Argento's Demons so I thought I was watching an Italian film. Once the movie starts I notice all the actors speak English with American accidents but the signage and books are in a foreign language (maybe German) and none of the exterior shots look anything like the United States. All the confusion is forgiven once we are in the theatre and the proverbial shit hits the fan.
So can I recommend Demons? Well would you still like Evil Dead if it was missing the campiness of Bruce Campbell? Any interest in seeing Euro thugs (or is this Cleveland) snort coke out of a Coke can? What about a dude(The soundtrack is very stellar. So 1985.)riding a motorcycle through a theater full of demons, chopping them up with a samurai sword accompanied by some bitchin 80's metal?
Demons also features maybe the most convenient escape in the history of cinema that I won't spoil for you here. Also make sure you watch through the credits. Beware of Demon scratches kiddies....
Great write up, it's always interesting to see others reactions to it. Yes, it is extremely varied in whatever-the-fuck-the-setting is supposed to be. It's like 80's America through Eurovision mixed with trash/metal aesthetic... If that means anything at all. Muddled is probably the best word. Demons 2 takes the same cinematography to another level of b-grade shadows and hallways. I'll be watching it again later this month.#2 - Demons - October 2nd
Two words: corn seduction.Troll 2
Good fucking movie. Scare the shit outta me when I was kid when it came out on VHS and watched with my cousins at night!!! Gonna find me a copy of it now.B-Dex said:Alright I watched:
Prince of Darkness
Tales from the Crypt: Demon Knight
I enjoyed Demon Knight more. Prince of darkenss was too slow and the ending really lame.
