Shitty (or good, I guess) horror movies?

[Bazia]

If it wasn't already mentioned;

Jack Frost 1 & 2 (killer snowman)

Will also prepare you for Christmas!

I thought of two horror films:

Squirm, and Slithis. They suck immensely, but both have a few seconds of hilarity.

Sci-fi, not really bad, but try Liquid Sky.

Finally, I've never seen it, but I like his other movies,
Shivers by Cronenberg ( try Videodrome also. One of my favorite "horror" films).

Salo is always quoted as "one of the most disturbing" movies ever. Honestly, it's fairly lame/tame compared to others mentioned here, but for it's time (1975) it was monumentally earth-shattering and I believe caused riots places.

For me horror is akin to Halloween, Nightmare on Elm street, but horrific is:

Human Pork Chop http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0103743/ (true story, of course dramatized)
Session 9 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0261983/(another true story that took place a few towns from me at Danvers State Mental Hospital in MA.)
Martyrs http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1029234/ (very nice twist, excellent movie but will stay with you awhile)
The Girl Next Door http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0830558/ (probably the MOST disturbing film for the general population, amazing this was based on a true story!)

Enjoy!

Major props to Cronenberg. Also try out:

Dead Ringers http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0094964/ (about twin gynecologists!)

Pasolini was a genius. Its an amazing movie. However, from what I've read, I don't think I could handle reading Sade's original. So I'm assuming its toned down quite a bit. Its definitely worth a watch though.

I think Salo is more disturbing than all of those films. Not so much because of the actual gore/violence seen, but because of the institutionalization of the violence. It remains #1 on my disturbing films list. I can handle people being monsters, or even small groups (Matyrs), but Salo seemed much more than that. So dehumanizing.

Evil Deads, any of the Critters movies, Jason/Freddy/etc classics, Puppet Master movies, Ghoulies, Leprachaun movies. Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head that I watched growing up. Haven't seen any scary movies in a while.
