I think I'm desensitized to horror because I mostly just laugh at scary stuff, but the scariest movie I've seen that I thought was actually scary is the original Amityville horror. Old movies are way creepier then the ones these days
I dunno I don't really get scared per se either, but one movie that I remember horrified me was The Green Room. It was about a band that goes and accidentally plays for a bunch of nazi punks, and they witness a murder so the nazis all go crazy on them and try killing them too. Only a few make it out alive and the whole thing was so damn horrifying it beat the Scream movies for sure, which I used to consider pretty stabby.
@mikeconley11 Finally something we have in common Sleepaway Camp is one of my absolute favourite series in the slasher category, the original much more than the sequels though.
And @Fire_Charged Good call on the Amityville Horror OG! I love 70's and 80's horror the most because they had the creep factor todays movies replace with gore/jump scares. I just watched the newest one, "Awakening" and thought it fell in line nicely with the rest
The exorcist that shit scared the hell outta me Also the leprechaun :/ Then I watched last house on the left 28 days/weeks later Okay fair to say I can't pick just one
Yes! This was the first film to make me reassess how to judge movies. It was poorly made, poorly acted, poorly written it should have been a terrible movie but it was also entertaining and audacious as shit. I agree with you about the sequels, those are terrible.
100% garbage, yet every summer I watch the original and then binge watch the sequels all in a row for nostalgia.
