<div class="IPBDescription">Or, partay tyme.</div> Well, it's halloween, and I'm going to a party in about an hour. We're going to watch a horror movie. The thing is,none of us are real horror movie aficionados(sp?), and we haven't the slightest as to what to rent.

So, I call upon you, Forumites. Recommend goodly movies unto me.
All that Zombie Panic has put me in the mood for something zombie-ish, so I'm leaning towards either the Evil Dead where Ash says "THIS IS MY BOOMSTICK."(Haven't seen any of them), or one of the Night of the Livin Dead(havent seen any o them)movies. If I get a zombie movie, I expect lots and lots of zombie bustin action.

Feel free to recommend anything, though.

    ...Excorcist!

    Edit: And some other ones I was thinking of is Final Destination one and two. *if it comes down to one, get the second*
    I also liked "They" and "Darkness Falls" which I lost sleep over.

    Get Dawn of the Dead. Just watched it last night. The acting is meh-ok, but the gore is great!

    And get Army of Darkness. It's not horry, more like Dark-Comedy. Still great.

    Watched that one this morning, and it was the most hillarious and insane movie I've ever seen! <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> And it's called 'army of darkness' afaik. (*edit* note to self: read other posts before posting.)
    Havn't seen any of the other evil dead movies before, but I sure am going to see them now. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Night of the Living Dead [1968/1990]
    Dawn of the Dead [1978]
    Day of the Dead [1985]
    The Exorcist
    John Carpenter's "The Thing"
    Event Horizon

    Romero's "Dead" series doesn't have masses of zombie killing action, though there's some, it's more of the zombies getting the few remaining survivors. If you want zombie's dying by the second[And comedy], get Braindead[AKA Dead-Alive]. "The Thing" is awesome, great effects, thought not neccesarily scary.

    Dont watch the ring or darkness falls. The ring is just a stupid movie all together, I mean its just .. retarded. You hardly get scared besides the creepy little girl in it. Then darkness falls is just the freakin' tooth fairy.

    Get a zombie flick, or ...

    ... just make sure you dont get house of a thousand corpses.

    Final Destination one and two < comedy

    Dawn of the Dead < adventure movie with hardly any action. If you thought 28 days was slow, this wont be much better.

    The Ring < horse jumps off boat! omg! (stupid)

    edit: forget horror, grab shaun of the dead or tree rape.
