Red Eye
 

Yes... my favorite movie of all time, acting was good, it was thrilling, ultra suspense ful..


discuss.:D

Out of all the horror movies in the world. Red Eye is your favorite? I didnt think it was good at all. But oh well everyones got thier opinion.

-ok well. let me explain. its my favorite thriller. like, suspense, not, horror. i loved it because it was, ( you gotta admit) very suspenseful, you wanted to no what was going to happen, and the action was intense. And the whole, save her dad and the hotel people was freaky too, and it had a good story behind it. I would say, favorite thriller yes, best scary movie... not quite. But, i think people just dont like the movies im into. I loved house of wax the new one. Its one of my favorites. it was great, and, my favorite.. funny scary movie, was cursed with Christina ricci. That movie was awesome.

reschedule him then!

Reschedule my ASS!


yay go gay

What are you trying to say here?

those are quotes from cursed... read my signature, or watch the movie.. no im not gay, and you dont need to reschedule my ass...

So, I'd assume that you havent seen any horror movies made before 1999?

I'd say not, maybe not even before 2000

i have. i tend to only remember the newer ones. I love older movies, as well as 90's 80's whatever. I like all of vincent price's stuff, those are great.

Sigh. Where to begin?
1.Not a horror film- Red Eye is a thriller primarily, perhaps if the politics were not so amorphous a POLITICAL thriller.
2. Not actually scary- The homeland security secretary might be murdered? Argh! This movie presents the terrifying prospect that marginally misguided, yet proactive and clever individuals intend to return us our human rights. If you want to make an omelet...this movie's political concerns are therefore frightening solely to hardcore conservatives and people who desperately want the government to know the contents of thier phonecalls. If you believe that thehomeland security secretary prevents terrorists attacks, I have a rock to sell you that keeps away Orcs and space lobsters.
Tense, yes. This woman's position is a scary one, but it is spoiled by why she's in it.
3. Easily resolved- When actually attacked, Cillian Murphy goes down like a cheerleader who needs an A in English. Too easy.
4.REALLY deceptive previews- The previews for this movie make it look like something so completely different that myself and many other moviegoers had been thoroughly decieved. If this were advertised as even remotely akin to the film it was, I don't think people would have seen it.

Cillian Murphy did some good acting, he's always great. And in regards to Wes Craven's directing, it's head and shoulders over Cursed and a lot of Wes Craven's worst efforts, but so too are Dude Where's my Car, Jason X and a 3 hr. Macrofocus on a pile of bellybutton lint. Cillian Murphy outshined the rest of a bitterly disappointing film.

my momma allways said "If you cant say anything nice, dont say nothin at all"

My Mom says that too, I hate it...

My momma told me to wear a condom.

i probably only think its one of my favorites because i saw it in theters on a starbucks caffeine high.

get off my back woman... or ill.. shoot you with a harpoon

Re: Red Eye
 

i loved this movie too. deff. my second favorite thriller/suspense (What Lies Beneath being first)

yeah, finally someone just agrees. sure its not the best movie of all time, but just cause i liked it shouldnt make evetyone flip out. jeez.

I know Jeez!

jeez man...






stop making fun of me

amen to that, some people on these message boards hate anything after 1997, just ignore them, its what i do.

Yep, ignore us. Just like you guys ignore every movie made before the year 2000:rolleyes:

I cant speak for all of us, but myself and many other members who are "flipping out" do, in fact, enjoy newer movies. Dead Birds, Dagon, Session 9, Dog Soldiers, Saw....all made within the last few years, and all among my all-time favourite horror movies. We just dont like the crappy wannabe horror flicks that are made with no more in mind than making a quick buck. The producers of these films [IE- Texas Chainsaw Massacre and House of Wax remakes, Boogeyman, Cry_Wolf] couldnt care less about scaring the audience, about making them uncomfortable, making them afraid to go to sleep at night. Hell, once they get their money, they couldnt care less what the audience thought of the movie. Now, Im not saying that all older movies are made with better intentions; movies have always been made to make money. But in years gone by, there were more filmmakers who truely cared about the genre, cared about scaring the audience out of their skulls more than lining their own pockets. Filmmakers like this do still exist, however they are in much shorter suply, and you need to look much harder to find their films.

So basically, what Im saying is go out, check out some older flicks. Drop me a PM if you want some good recomendations. There's alot more than the "horror" that's being shoved down your throats by coke-snortin' fat-cats in Hollywood.

errggg house of wax wasnt THAT bad..........

...

Was that all you got out of that? Why did I waste my time...

yeah.......... ok. i read it though lol

well i read through the whole thing and all i got was 'blah blah blah i think i know everything when it comes to horror movies'. i have seen many many older horror movies since my mom is a classic horror fan, and i find them, boring, fake looking, and DEFFINATLY not scary what so ever. and i mean seriously, were you RIGHT THERE next to the directors who made the old and new horror movies to make sure that they actually cared about the movie they were making and not just the money?

myself, i got was pretty petrified after seeing Texas Chainsaw Massacre (the remake not the original, i didnt like the original at all). and house of wax, i didnt find to be all that scary, but i deff. think it was a good movie that brings enjoyment.

if you can give me 3 older horror movies, that are actually any good, then maybe ill change my mind. but as of now, i feel the newer horror movies are better then the oldies.

I hope you die in a car wreck

Gladly. Im counting "oldies" as anything made 10 years or more before you were born:


Dracula [1931]
Pit and the Pendulum [1961]
The Abominable Dr. Phibes [1971]
Theatre of Blood [1973]
Last Man on Earth [1964]
Night of the Living Dead [1969]
The Amityville Horror [1979]
Texas Chainsaw Massacre [1974]
The Wolf Man [1941]
Frankenstein [1931]
Bride of Frankenstein [1935]
Halloween [1978]
Nosferatu [1922]
Phantom of the Opera [1925, 1943]
The Tingler [1959]
House on Haunted Hill [1959]
House of Wax [1953]
Mystery of the Wax Museum [1933]
Carnival of Souls [1962]
The Mummy [1931]
Dawn of the Dead [1978]


If you'd like, I could name a hell of alot more. This is probably enough for now, cause there's no chance you'll actually watch any of those anyway, alot are in *gasp* black and white!:rolleyes:

You tell 'em, Return.

I'll add a few "golden oldies" to the list.

The Changeling
The Haunting
Suspiria
Tenebre
Re-Animator
Evil Dead
In the Mouth of Madness
From Beyond
The Wicker Man
The Hills Have Eyes
Last House on the Left

Note: anything prior to 2000 counts as an "oldie" for the purposes of this list.

If you do still need more examples, check out the section here called "Classic Horror Movies". It's titled that for a reason, ya know.

i REALLY want to see the hills have eyes. what's it about anyway

Cannibalistic family terrorizing a family after their trailer broke down in the desert.

Unless you dont mind buying online [which I try to avoid], it pretty hard to find. Ive been trying to get ahold of a copy for months, no luck anywhere around here.

cannibal made me lose interest.

dog soldiers is easily one of the top werewolf movies ever made. that part near the end when they were all standing in the shadows and nobody saw them until they walked out was eerie. But the scariest part was when the guy got pulled out the window really fast, and later showed the werewolf eating him, and he threw the head at the guy in the jeep lol

lmao! THANKS! haha

Saw:
Night of the Living Dead [1969]
The Amityville Horror [1979]
Texas Chainsaw Massacre [1974]
Halloween [1978]

House of Wax [1953]
Dawn of the Dead [1978]

and most of the other ones you listed arent at my local video rental store, nor at my local library, and im not about to buy them online. and your right, i wont watch any in black and white, it makes my eyes go buggy, Sin City was murder. why are some people such fucking smart asses.

Saw:
The Changeling
The Haunting
Evil Dead
The Hills Have Eyes
Last House on the Left

and my video rental place doesnt have a copy of Suspiria, and ive looked at other places and cant find a copy.

off topic to the max

only because someone took what i said and got over dramatic about it and flipped a shit.

Excuse #1- That one makes sence, the video stores around here suck, too. I dont like buying stuff online, either.

Excuse #2- HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. B&W makes your eyes go "buggy"? You need to make an apointement with an Optometrist, buddy.

As for why some people are such smart asses, it's to make up for dumbasses like yourself.

ill be sure to look into an appointment.:p

and dumbass? haha far from it. and even if i am "dumb", it doesnt make up for your rudeness. im not going to argue with you because i have a life that doesnt involve jerking off to 80 year olds online.

not sure what 80 year olds had anything to do with...

its an expression used for someone who all they do is sit at their computers and mess around in chat rooms and message boards all day.
