Horror is my favorite genre of movies. I love the classics like The Exorcist, Jaws, anything Hitchcock, The Omen, The Shinning, Halloween....and most B horror movies.
Newer horror doesn't have the same feel as 1960-1980 film gives off.
One that's not so new, but pretty good was "Barbarian".
Its got a bit of Hitchcockian twists, with great acting.
Richard Brake is the new Lance Hendrickson.
If you do watch Barbarian, do NOT watch any trailers or read anything about it, it will ruin it. Just knowing its horror kinda ruins it. You gotta see it to understand. :)

I remember watching Zach Cregger in The Whitest Kids U’Know, it is so unimaginably crazy to me that the man is now putting out some of the best horror films, maybe some of the best films period, of the past couple decades. What a talent. Him and Jordan Peele, it’s nuts that these comedy guys can turn around and scare me so thoroughly.

disregard the other post hahaha, I got Justin long confused and still didn't know anyone's name lol. Now knowing who Cregger is, I am definitely looking forward to what else he has coming. He said he has "another idea" for the weapons universe. should be cool to see where he takes it

Does it strike a nostalgic chord for ya or you like the tall man?

Don Coscarelli, the Director, did a masterful job with this, the first movie in the series. He makes you ponder whether Mike is deluded by grief into a fantasy involving the death of his parents, and the subsequent involvement of The Tall Man, or if he and his brother, Jody, are experiencing a terrifying reality.

The playing off of these two possibilities makes the storyline somewhat dreamlike (or nightmarish) and, hence, possibly hard to follow. Mr. Coscarelli leaves it to the viewer to determine which possibility is correct.

I don't really have a favorite horror movie, there are a lot of great ones, but I love watching old B movies. There are many famous actors that appear in these movies before they were famous.
Johnny Depp in the first "A Nightmare On Elm Street", and Jennifer Aniston in the first "Leprechaun" are probably the most famous.
