Care to share any scary movies you've seen recently? anyone care to share? Once saw this show Hannibal'', the good doctor actually got his victim feeding on his own brain, really blood and gore. For the privilege of those who hasn't got the stomach for this sort of stuff, at least they can read of it here :hung: .
Hi Guys,
I managed to catch
The Maid, which IMHO is good for a local film with minimal computer, makeup and visual effects compared to Hollywood. In fact, I thought it was better than some of HK's horror films.
The Shutter from Thailand is good, which totally gives another reputation to Polaroid cameras.
But
The Ring from Japan really win hands down for all horror films.
But I like the independent horror film
The Blair Witch Project. Those who have seen the film may not agree with me but I thought the way they built up the story and the marketing strategy of the film was awesome. According to
imdb.com, the film's turnover ratio was 1:11,000 - for every dollar the filmmakers invested into the film, they earned $11,000.
If you are looking for hardcore gore and blood, both
Audition and
The Saw are perhaps what you guys are looking for, except the action only starts towards the end of the film.
Of course, there is another version of "horror" - 15 minutes into the show and you realized you are going to waste the next 2 hours of your precious time and your $9 as well... And discovered all the exciting scenes of the show are all in the trailer...
Just my two yen worth.
