If you've seen the grudge, watch ju-on. it's the original grudge. you're gonna have to be ok with subtitles
though. asians make the best horror films. honestly americans suck at horror.

The 2nd one was kinda eh for me, but the first one ruled as far as the scares go.
I seen the US version of oldboy on Netflix, haven't watched it.
Jeepers Creepers 1 and 2 were pretty good.
Nosferatu is good if you like silent film
The Stuff (reminds me of airplane for some reason)
Creepshow 1 and 2
The people under the stairs
Tales from the Hood
Wishmaster 1 -3
Darkness Falls
Dead End
Dead Snow (fucking killer)

I really enjoyed the first jeepers creepers although the ending was a lil cheesey  never seen the sequel though...wishmaster is also a very good old school horror film.
man it seems like these days they can't create the same atmosphere as they used to, recently i watched mama & the conjouring and imo both were spoiled because of excessive use of cgi and typical 'hollywood' storyline. blair witch shits on both and its budget was a fraction of the cost.

You are right man. I think that's why I never get excited for new scary movies. I thought the conjuring would have been pretty good, but at the end of it I was left disappointed. Mama sucked.
That seems like everyone's problem solver with movies now. Throw a bunch of money at it until its good. No creativity.

Have you seen The Last Lovecraft? It was good for what it was, comedy. Kinda wish they would go big budget film on the call of cthulhu. Can you imagine seeing Cthulhu in a movie now? Shit would be epic. And not that black and white call of cthulhu either.
I saw The Last Lovecraft. It was fun for the humor on mythos mix. A year or two ago one of the major studios was going to do a big budget At The Mountains of Madness, which is my all time favorite Lovecraft story. I was pretty excited, but then it got tabled. Some people claim The Thing was a partial rip off of the story, but IMO way different.
Agreed a big cut of CoC would be awesome. Saw the new Godzilla a few weeks ago and he was immense. I was thinking that modern magic and writing styles could easily capture the look and feel of a Cthulhu encounter. Go full balls with real psychotic shit happening.

Word. What was the movie with the guy from Jurassic Park? Wasn't it Mouth of madness take? I remember hearing about the one you are talking about. I wondered why nothing ever came of it.
Besides the stuart Gordon films and the ones Ezra Godin(?) were in, the other really awesome and close-to-the-story movie was the one with Vincent Price.....The Dunwich Horror I think.
Been dying to see Godzilla, probably have to wait for Netflix or Bluray.
Cool someone else likes Lovecraft. Whats your favorite old one? Think I got that right. Mine, besides Cthulhu, is Nyarlathotep and Azatoth.
On a side note, How in the hell do you actually say Cthulhu?

Is that the movie that was supposedly a real documentary filmed with tribes that still practiced cannibalism?
One day when the kids are gone, I'm gonna check that movie out.
I fucked up and watched the New Elm street when my daughter was up. The part in the library where "freddy" turns around real quick came on when she walked in the living room and scared her to death. Poor thing cried for like 10 minutes.lol
My wife has a deathly fear of clowns, so this morning I grabbed a clown mask and put it on while she was asleep and layed back in bed with her. I started rubbing her back and tickling her neck to wake her up.
Backfired, I got my nose bloodied. She knocked the shit out of me when she turned around and opened her eyes.lol. I deserved it, but at least I scared the fuck out of her. She screamed bloody murder.lol.

Yeah, that's the one. It was banned in a few countries for a while and the director was actually taken to court cos the cannibal killings looked so real, that was when he admitted to the real animal deaths like the big turtle that met its end with a knife being plunged into its body. Apparently there's an edited version with the animal deaths cut out...apart from those shitty scenes it's actually a very well done movie for its time & has great soundtrack!

No idea how Lovecraft intended for Cthulhu to be said. There is a lot of debate online. I use the generic white boy saying - ka-thoo-loo
Nyarlathotep is my favorite, probably more so than Cthulhu. I like the way it is has supposedly interwoven itself into so many religions and cultures. I am pretty sure that Lovecraft got the idea for him from The King in Yellow, written by Robert Chambers. Lovecraft cites Chambers as an influence in general. Read his stuff and you can see where Lovecraft could have picked up a lot of techniques for building atmosphere and mystery. I bet if you gave someone The King in Yellow and told them it was Lovecraft they would have a hard time telling the difference, especially on that specific story.
Donald Tyson wrote a book called Necronomicon that follows the journeys of the mad arab. There is no attempt to pass it off as non-fiction and is not written in Lovecraft style, but it does make great use of horror and the mythos. The "magical texts" written by Tyson are complete airy-fairy shit, not worth the money even to most Mythos fans.

I actually have Necronomicon, Alhazerad, and The 13 grimoires. I agree, the magical texts are kinda ridiculous, but I loved the actual story. He did a good job reviving my interest after so long with not much going on. Before that all I had besides Lovecraft was an Hr Giger art book and The Simon Necronomicon.
