thinks nom thread is useless, then reps something from the noms thread
I don't see why these should be mutually exclusive. just cuz this thread is fairly pointless doesn't require me to change my opinion about the movies referenced.

your chiming in is an example of how these threads are useful, completely undermining your statement about how these threads are pointless

I don't know how me and DJP agreeing about something is really "useful". I assume no one here follows my recommendations about anything.

I found a pretty decent horror movie ranking with some stuff I've never heard of, if anyone's looking for suggestions.

Hey Edward III, I am looking forward to viewing your asian noms that I have not yet seen

my fave underrated flick there is prolly tsukamoto's gemini, he did the tetsuo films. I was on the fence about nominating another movie by him, a snake of june, not really horror but super creepy in a cronenbergian way. almost anything by tsukamoto is worth watching.

Je Woon Kim's I Saw The Devil (2010)? I vote for that.
yay horror!!!
I don't have a very deep catalog of knowledge so I'm just enjoying the list of titles that's pouring out of your braaaains like when a skull gets hacked open with an ax :D
I am kind of a fussbudget about thriller v horror so I'm not going to be voting for no Mulholland Falls or Eraserhead

Is the Antichrist in the list L'Anticristo 1974? If not, I would like to nominate that one.

Judging by the extent to which my ballot is compiled thus far, Sam Neill would appear to be my favorite horror movie actor of all time.

the other (1972)
plz do not confuse w/ the others
― diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Thursday, 5 April 2012 16:29 (twelve years ago) link
I saw the devil more of a thriller than horror imo, but if that's up for consideration I'd throw in memories of murder
― diamanda ram dass (Edward III), Thursday, 5 April 2012 16:30 (twelve years ago) link
or maybe I wouldn't I dunno
I'd like to nominate Jurassic Park and The Piano

Added all the ones mentioned since I last checked in, except for these from Edward III:
gargoyles (1972)don't be afraid of the dark (1973)bad ronald (1974)crowhaven farm (1970)dead of night (1977)duel (1971)salem's lot (1979)trilogy of terror (1975)dark night of the scarecrow (1981)the dark secret of harvest home (1978)devil dog: the hound of hell (1978)the initiation of sarah (1978)a cold night's death (1973)the possessed (1977)satan's school for girls (1973)
Were those included just as examples of '70s TV horror, or were those meant as nominations?

Oh, and I'm not adding The Piano, sorry.
look Lost Highway scared the bejabbers out of me but I'm not nomming it as a horror movie
but as I showed in the comedy thread I turn into a giant spaz about genre shenanigans so I'll try to restrain myself
― Peppermint Patty Hearst (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 5 April 2012 16:38 (twelve years ago) link
does Picnic at Hanging Rock count?
I think it should. It might not be straight horror, but is creepier and more haunting than most genre-adherent horror films.
― picture jean rollin (Pillbox), Thursday, 5 April 2012 16:39 (twelve years ago) link
kind of, but that makes me feel like any Canadian art-film is then up for grabs, such as Kissed and The Hanging Gardens

xpost well then nominate the Vanishing too, jeez

The Vanishing is nominated, et al

did I watch that movie with you or did we watch that independently of each other? that lawnmower scene is all-time
Yeah lawnmower scene totally unforgettable. Also the opening scene! "Three Satanists walk into a dog shelter..."
That list of TV Movies really brings back some deep memories. I saw Gargoyles at least 3 times on TV...
Anyway, a few more:
Jack Ketchum's The LostPontypoolExorcist II: The HereticDagon

actually Kissed probably would count, with the whole necrophily thing so
nominations:

I think not voting for stuff because it isn't in the 'horror' section at Blockbuster is really missing a trick. Genre labels are often just a marketing tool, and most movies labeled as 'horror' are cinematic middle fingers created by people who hate horror films.
Which is my way of saying most of Lynch's stuff most definitely qualifies as horror, whether anyone involved in its creation or marketing would have necessarily gravitated towards that particular label.

Imma go out on a limb and guess that you'll double the current number of nominees all on your lonesome.

Also, I'm trying (but it's obviously not a perfect system) to list titles alphabetically according to English version, and then putting original lang title in brackets afterwards.
In some cases, though, I'm not bothering (i.e. Haute Tension).
