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?

100% Nope: A episode from supernatural, where ghouls half way succeed to eat Sam. (I consider it as the most gruesome horror I have ever seen, and I don't think I have the stomach to see it ever again. The blood draining is a ... no.)

Yellow brick road on otherhand hits the weird places spot of SCP, which I can't get enough. (not horror really, but still)

The Blair Witch Project. Terrifying.

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.

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.

[–] BigBananaDealer@lemm.ee 2 points 7 months ago

day of the dead is fantastic. perfect build up and release. watched it with a lot of friends and damn we went crazy for that ending

[–] ImminentOrbit@lemmy.world 2 points 7 months ago

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

Mood, man.

[–] Maiq@lemy.lol 1 points 7 months ago

Army of Darkness.

"The shutter" the original asian one. I remember watching it when it came out and loved it. ETA and the original Halloween of course but I also liked Rob Zombie's version of it.
