That movie is fucked up and shouldn't have been made
>>
>>67949488
Hence, the best horror film of the 90s.
>>
>>67949618
This.

>>67949488
>bawww that movie shouldn't exist because i don't like it
Watch something else. Censorship does not exist at your convenience.

>>67949488

Since someone actually feels that way, then it sounds to me like it's a good shortlist candidate for OP's topic: best horror movie of the 90s.

Assuming it was actually released in that decade and all. I forget.

I like the Dead Alive/Braindead suggestion. That thing fucked with me the first few times, kek

It seems like the 80s and 70s were much more dominant periods for the genres though, since that is when so many modern properties, tropes, and worthy remakes were established. The sheer quantity of sequels ensured that they'd sorta-hit every once in a while, too.

Cure (1997) for the top-tier creepy atmosphere

Event Horizon for great production values and concept

Cube for ingenuity

One of the top 3 best horror films of all time came out in the 90s, Jacob's Ladder.

Probably my favorite movie desu
>>
>>67952316
That one was okay but they gave it away too early in the movie with that one lady. If you've never seen a movie before it'd be cool and a surprise though
i liked the hospital scenes
>>
>>67952368
What lady, the psychic? I didn't think it gave it away because there are so many red herrings, there are things that suggest stronger than that lady that the twist is something else, like the chemical testing thing.

Either way, I just love it for the subtle horror, terrifying hell scenes, well-done twist, and fucking amazing acting. You also have to remember it was one of the first horror films to use the dead the whole time twist.

I thought of this, and although it has scary bits, it's a thriller, not a horror. It (and its source text) have somewhat higher ambitions, and don't revel in blood'n'spoops for blood'n'spoop's sake.

Intellectually this would oblige me to argue my case in detail, but happily I'm not enrolled in an art theory class so I can just, like, have opinions, man. Not a horror movie.
>>
>>67950423

No it isn't. It was over 15 years ago. That's a long chunk of anyone's lifetime. If you're going to reflect and form opinions on any period of recent history that you've actually lived through, that's a good place to start.

Blair Witch Project
>>
>>67952755
He meant because it's between the years 1990 and 19999. that's like, a few dozen years
>>
That tanning scene in the sequel.

Hnnnnngh.....


And then there was jack black as the fat white Jamaican guy. I can't believe that was an actual character.
>>
>>67952769

When you actually watch Cannibal Holocaust and pay attention, you will understand that Blair Witch is completely derivative of it, soup to nuts, basic plot point by basic plot point, just ported to a different (similar) setting.

The 90's weren't bad, really. Way ahead of 2000-2010. You'd be reaching to make a list that rivals >>67953729 if you went from 2000-2016. 1980's reigns supreme, tho.
>>
>>67953729
>that increasing name length

are you ocd or autistic?
>>
>>67948431
Scream or In the Mouth of Madness
>>
>>67954398
Maybe both. Leaning toward OCD. Increasing title length felt better than random titles
>>
>>67953729
Cool list. Not because of what you listed but the effort put in
>>
>>67954915
oh well anyway good list m80
>>
>>67953729
Cube or The Faculty are my top picks from the 90's.

Great list overall.
