Hey Chrono- how bout Home Movie... or was it Home Movies?

Shit I forgot about Fido, Trick R Treat and Bug. Brilliant stuff for sure.

Borderland and Severance were terrible and illustrate how artistically bankrupt and derivative a lot of the genre's out put has been over the last decade. I personally wouldn't put them on a list like this... but it does point out how a good 90% of recent horror flicks are average at best.

Here are some others that also I think worth to mention:

2006:
The Descent
The Hills have eyes
Perfume: The Story of a Murderer
Right at your Door
Silent Hill
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning

2007:
Alone (Thai Horror)
Dead Silence
Frontier(s)
Rob Zombie's Halloween
Mr. Brooks
Stuck
Teeth

2008:
The Cottage (2008)

2009:
Grace
Halloween II
Triangle

I thought The Descent was made in 2005; if not, it would be at the top of my list.
Mr. Brooks was a great film too.

I don't care..
- Rob Zombie's Halloween (2007)
- Rob Zombie's Halloween II (2009)
- The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (2003)
- Friday the 13th (2009)
- A Nightmare on Elm street (2010)
- Grindhouse presents: Quentin Tarantino's "Death Proof" (2007)
- Rob Zombie's House of 1000 Corpses (2003)
- Rob Zombie's The Devil's Rejects (2005)

Yes! Home Movie was FANTASTIC - Forgot to mention it here - gave it a nod in the Bad Seed thread.

YOU'RE terrible. OH - SNAP. :eek:

Why do people on HDC hate on Severance? I thought it was a lot of fun. People liked The Cabin, but hated Severance?

Borderland definitely had its weaknesses, but it shocked me a bit when I saw it in the theater. I still maintain it's a great indie movie, though I've only watched it once; who knows if it'll stand up after repeat viewings...

I wanted to like Severance but I just found it annoying. Never seen The Cabin because I figured it would be the same kinda deal. Horror Comedies are something that's very hit and miss for me. I prefer more subtlety.

Yeh man. I like unintentional laughs at a films expense and get more of a kick out of them than conventional comedies :)

I agree, Elvis. The horror movies that are done in deadly earnest , but just make you laugh are the most entertaining.
