Liked (Hope I don't sound too stupid!):

(1) The Village - A really fine film. I can only think the reason so many disliked this film is it's not quite what you expect, not really horror. The love story was quite touching and the acting was great.

(2) Children of the Corn - The first one was original and kinda creepy when I was a kid. The sequels are complete garbage though.

(3) Boggeyman - Not a bad film. Again, the problem with most of you was having high expectations this would be an AMAZING horror film. Not amazing, but enjoyed sitting through it


Disliked: (Oh gosh, please don't hurt me!)

(1) Frailty (uh oh, I'm in trouble) - A film that I didn't mind sitting through once, but definitely not something I'd revisit. Surprising to hear so many talk it up.

(2) Land of the Dead (digging my self a deeper grave) - This is one of those films EVERYONE wanted to be awesome, but I can come to grips with reality. Not very good at all. The Dawn remake blew this away.

(3) Dog Soldiers (I'm dead, I know it) - LOL. Slightly better than other werewolf crap like Howling and Silver Bullet, but definitely not the Oscar-quality film almost everyone here seems to think.

and one more just for kicks:

(4) Halloween - Alot of people just love the original. Again, I think it has to do with love of a director. But this movie never really impressed me, or scared me. The original Nigthmare on Elm Street was far better. (Going to buy a cemetery plot right now!)

disliked :

The Beyond: if this was supposed to be a 'mindfuck' then it was a lousy lay.

Suspiria : good music, well shot - but thats about it.

Anything by Full Moon. Their newer shit is so bad it affected how i look at the older ones.

- most other critically acclaimed horrors i like


Like:

The Grudge. cant understand any horror fan not liking it

TCM2 : i had no problem with it (except the credits at the end)

Darkness Falls, Cabin Fever, They, Wrong Turn ... thought they were all OK

Ghost Ship .. not bad at all - i dont understand why people hate it so much.

I hate to admit it (even to myself) but, that's what happened to me...And you would not BELIEVE how much I was into Full Moon...I'll still stand behind Subspecies (my first Full Moon love), Puppet Master, and Demonic Toys...

Hey...I like Howard The Duck, too...Does that mean that I don't get to bite you? :D

And...I could never quite build up enough interest to even WATCH Napoleon Dynamite...
