Favorite horror movie? (sh.itjust.works)
submitted 1 month ago by friek@sh.itjust.works to c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

It's horror movie season in the US and my favorite type is zombies. I also love campy B movies. Watching Dead Snow 2 right now and I think it ranks up there with Shawn of the Dead and Evil Dead 3: Army of Darkness.

What is your top pick for whatever genre?

Fright Night (1985)

The Reanimator (1985)

Classics!

I like The Blob(1988) too.

The original Romero zombie movie series deserves its own discussion IMO. Dawn of the Dead is my favorite.

Midsommer is my favorite. A slow, realistic slide into horror.

The 1922 Nosferatu.

The original Night of the living Dead is way up there for vanilla zombie horror. 28 days later for modern zombies.

Thankskilling and Jack Frost for B movie holiday horror.

The ending of NOTLD is still so relevant today, sadly.

Not my favourite but Sleepaway Camp is an absolute classic of so-bad-its-good 80s horror with an unforgettable ending.

GYO Tokyo Fish Attack. Body horror is a great genre that doesn’t come around very often without looking kind of cheesy so it helps being animation.

The Fly is another great example of the genre. Such an excellent movie with a sad ending to top it off.
