[Urist is dead tome]

I really have been disappointed by horror movies lately, I saw the Ring, Case 39, a bunch more that I can't even remember. They all sucked. The single scariest movie I have ever seen (and the best horror movie), is The Thing.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

See, the best part about The Thing was how it played upon paranoia. The actual Thing itself (also notable for not really having a name because of how alien it is) is scary enough when it appears, but that's only a few times. Most of the movie is spent either in buildup or in fear of the Thing, since they know that it's one of them, just not whom.

And another part that stands out for the Thing is that it doesn't need any sex scenes, unlike other movies such as Jason. It just focused on being really damn scary instead of trying to bring in more male teens.

I don't know about you but I am not looking forward to the Thing prequel.

Would you look forward to The Thing vs Predator? I know I would.

I'm really not seeing much of a contest here.... I think it would even out to be about twenty minutes, well without filler, that is.

[MetalSlimeHunt]

I honestly don't know who would win that one. One one hand, The Thing could easily devour entire biospheres without really trying. On the other hand, Preadators respond to dishonorable death with nuclear weapons.

EDIT: Heh.

•Getting Crap Past The Radar: The initial cut was so gory that test audiences complained of nausea. John Carpenter alleviated this by changing nothing.

Just have a monster mashup with every creature in one big free for all.

You don't?

I once tried this with animals, but, you know, life happened.

But I loved The Ring...
(Or as least the Japanese version, I've never seen the english version.)

I was talking about the American version, never seen the Japanese version.

Anyone else seen Shutter (original)?

Eraserhead, while not frightening, is very disquieting I have to watch the whole thing sometime.

Candle Cove is nice.

Sometimes, simple things can be creepy as well.

The last man on Earth sat in a room. There was a knock upon the door.

There is an even shorter one: The last man on Earth sat in a room. There was a lock on the door.

Clearly, it was the last woman on Earth arriving with a nice, apocalyptically delicious meal.

[Cthulhu]

There was a box.  A skeleton popped out.

[lordnincompoop]

He lay in the dark, his face all red.

Very good story, btw.
