Re: Your All-Time Favorite Movies

Empire Strikes Back, Inception, Dark Knight, LOTR trilogy, Aladdin, Kingdom of Heaven, The Avengers, Brotherhood of the Wolf, Lucky # Slevin, Se7en, Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs, Willow, The Matrix, Indian Jones and the Last Crusade, Princess Mononoke, Sunshine, Stardust, Pitch Black, Gangs of New York, etc etc etc. Like others have said my list could go on forever almost and I can't believe no ones said The Princess Bride, but with so many good ones already listed and I'm sure plenty more to come, it's understandable.

Re: Your All-Time Favorite Movies

Not many horror movies on anyone's list. No one's a horror movie fan?

Although personally I can't remember any horror movies lately that have truly left me going, WTF?

I listed .REC and have bought 3 different versions of 28 Weeks Later after seeing it in theaters (Blu Ray, IPod, DVD).

Agreed. I mean the original on top of having very early and poor special effects/makeup was apparently more of a political commentary. The Remake was just a pure unadulterated thrill ride with a plot that still made it emotionally engaging save for one scene that I could have easily done without (baby).

Saw it many, many years ago on late night television, and it truly scared me. One of the all-time great, and underrated, horror flicks.

Agreed with Dirtbag on Rec... Other horror:

The Descent
Martyrs
Inside
The Others
Jacob's Ladder
Paranormal Activity
Evil Dead 2
A Tale of Two Sisters
Dog Soldiers
Near Dark
The Woman
Eden Lake
Straw Dogs (1971)
Hellraiser
Event Horizon
28 Days Later
The Lost Boys
The Shining
A Serbian Film
May
High Tension
Psycho (1960)
Trick or Treat
The Thing (1982)
Rosemary's Baby
The Devil's Backbone
Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)
Session 9
Audition
Halloween (1978)
Last House on the Left (2009)
Orphan
Alien
Carrie
The Exorcist
Ginger Snaps
Black Christmas (1974)
The Children
Let Me In (I liked the British remake more than the original)
The Loved Ones (If anyone watches Hell on Wheels, check this one out- it stars the gal with the face tattoo in HoW)

A new one called V/H/S is bringing American horror back hard... I'd been thinking we've been losing ground to the French lately.

OK, I went overboard... but it's my favorite genre.
