[Film] Horror Films you cannot watch

[FamilyGuy]

I don’t do horror films so I’m not gonna reply to this thread.

Only one film that I refuse to watch again is Entity , poor woman endured years of terror - and all a true story , genuinely disturbing .

Really? Is it though?

 

[Eeyore]

I don't watch them as a rule. But there are some films which aren't gore for gore's sake. I did rather enjoy Twenty Eight Days Later.

 

[South Stand Bonfire]

I started watching the first Saw film with my daughter a few years back. She loves them but they are not for me!

I enjoy Folk Horror”

From Wicker Man to Enys Men and more obscure ones. I especially like ones set in the 1970’s.

I enjoy reading this stuff too.

I enjoy all the usual tropes;

Naive outsider arrives at a remote location, visits the local Inn in the dead of night, slowly uncovers strange goings on.

Love it.

Groups of friends who go on a hike and disaster befalls them, love those films.

And a good Werewolf film always does the job for me.

Dog Soldiers spans all these genres and I love that one. Doesn’t take itself too seriously either.

I also love The Company Of Wolves. What an atmospheric film!

Not a fan of gore or haunting films. They do nothing for me at all.

Really? Is it though?

According to the Doctor who observed not just her but her family under near lab conditions (shown in the film) thought it was - all I know is the fact it might be true is very alarming .

 

[TugWilson]

Yeah but she was quite fit especially when she had an orgasm in her sleep.

Yeah Barbara Hershey was a bit of a babe.

Saw 3 made me dizzy and go to the toilet almost threw up the leg scene I think

 

[Uncle Spielberg]

Saw 3 took it to a new level generallly the 3 hostel films are grim as well

Barrowbeck by Andrew Hurley

The Gallows Pole by Benjamin Myers

Pine (I forget the author)

I enjoyed all the above recently.

Eden Lake was a good film but a bit disturbing, not because it was gory , but because you could believe it could actually happen (at least I did).

Thank you.
I love Myers stuff. I really recommend Elmet by Fiona Morzley.
Not horror per se but it has that folk horror sense of place, the atmosphere. Definitely influenced by it.
