It's Horror Movie Time, Kiddies!

Horror is one of my favorite genres. I do not consider the current crop of torture porn movies "horror", and do not enjoy movies like Saw or Hostel. They just go for the gross-out, which simply isn't enjoyable or scary.

My mom loves em also, so when I was a kid she'd plop me down to watch them with her. I told Clive Barker that I first saw Hellraiser at 10 years old with my mom and he was so delighted he signed an autograph for her :P

My favorite horrorshows are:

The Haunting - The Robert Wise 1963 version. The story of one woman's battle with architecture and lesbianism.

Hellraiser. The story of one pincushion's battle with 1980s fashions.

Suspiria. The story of one dancer's battle with witchcraft and fabulous lighting. A Lounge of Tomorrow favorite! (ha, ha, ha)

Halloween. I'm giving it all she's got, captain! Too bad all the sequels sucked.

A Nightmare on Elm Street. Gives a whole new meaning to the word "handjob".

Poltergeist. Mama told me never to pick at scabs. (This movie used to terrify me when I was a kid since I had a giant tree outside my window AND a clown puppet in my room)

Aliens. OK technically this is scifi, but it's a pretty damn scary film, especially in those chestburster scenes. I fell in love with Sigourney Weaver after this film, she is so damn hot!

Night of the Living Dead. This is one of those movies (they're coming to get you Barbara..... look.. there's one now!) that is funny to watch with friends, and really goddamn scary to watch alone late at night. The ending was like.. what the fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!

Invasion of the Body Snatchers (1970s version with Donald Sutherland). I think, the best ending to any horror movie, ever.
