So what are some of your favorite horror movie documentaries, /x/? Been watching a lot of ones on Universal Monsters and Hammer Horror. Entertaining stuff. Always enjoy seeing them going as far back as the silent era talking about 1910 Frankenstein, Dr. Caligari, Nosferatu, and London after Midnight. All the way up to the slasher and cult movies of the 80's like NoES, Evil Dead, RE-animator, The Fly, and The Thing.
They really gotten me into some things I thought I'd never watch like Madhouse, Theatre of Blood, Mad Love, The abominable Dr. Phibes, Monster Club, House of Wax, House on Haunted Hill, The Raven, and The Last Man on Earth. As you can see, mostly Vincent Price films and a few Peter Lorre films. These are great fucking movies which I may of never seen..
Anyway, I know Monster Madness isn't technically a documentary, but james does a great job of going into detail with a lot of the movies he reviews in a non-spoiler way.

Mark Gatiss did one called History of Horror which I thought was pretty good

Yeah that was pretty good. The one hosted by Christopher Lee was also pretty great. If you're a big Elm Street fan (which i'm not) you'll love the 4 hour documentary that goes through all the movies.

In retrospect, there are a lot of horror flicks I still need to see, especially earlier ones. Most of the movies on here are actually from marathons around Halloween inspired by Monster Madness. Any major films that are must sees that I've missed?
>>17733491
>The Blob
holy shit, friend. you should really look up more horror films from the 50's if the best you can come up with i the blob. You could check out some of the Hammer Dracula and Frankenstein films that were out at the time. They were really good.

that came out in 1980

see above
this shit has taken me an hour. In my opinion, the 70's was the strongest decade for horror films.
I thought I was the only motherfucker in the world that saw Monster Club.
Shitty film, but kudos to you, OP.
I'm just a sucker for your love! ;)
>>17733649
It's a fun anthology film. Not very scary though. Very watchable, but i'm aware it's not a good film, but I just love it. The only thing I didn't like were the songs that they would play after every story.
>>17733642
Now that I think about it, Blade is technically horror. I'd also put that in the 90's category
The Man who Laughs is also pretty good.
Well I'm gonna sleep. Hope thread is still up later. If not, i'll post it again. Probably was a dumb idea to make it at the time I did anyway.

Svankmajer is horror too.
I wish James would make some kind of marathon feature for his Monster Madness video so I don't have to click on every single fucking video. The videos themselves for the most part are only a few minutes long. Don't know why it's so complicated. The only one that has that sort of feature is Monster Madness 2007. It automatically goes to the next video so I don't have to get up every 2 minutes.
>>17733282
>>17733649
Oh shit, you too?
Some of the songs in it were actually half decent I'd say.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zkPqiVODzj0
The YouTube channel, SOG 59 has a lot of great horror documentaries. I didn't know Mycroft was a homosexual AND loved horror films. Interesting.
>>17735429
Here it is, if anyone's interested.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zArj0MM_Ai0
>>17735451
Such a good movie, but those songs are horrible. Still very comfy though.
>>17735465
They're nice to listen to every once and a while. I think the movie is due a rewatch from me here soon.
I just scanned through that Megan is Missing. A lot of the acting is like something from a ButchyKid sasquatch video. If it weren't for the content, I would expect to see it in a church's special for teens.
I think the Raven is probably my favorite out of all the Poe films.

Can't stand those songs. They just remind me of generic 80's pop trash. I honestly feel that entire decade as filled with not only bad music, but overrated music.

None, if you could recommend any I'd be down.
There was a horrifyingly long documentary on the Nightmare on Elm Street films, look on youtube a lot of people put decent videos up there, some are short but that just leaves room to watch more.
>>17737723
>70's
You're lacking. There are so many great horror films from that decade, you're really missing out
>hellraiser
What is the appeal of this movie? It wasn't remotely scary and there wasnt anything that epic that happens in the movie. Only thing I really remember is the guy who's body was inside out or some shit.
>army of darkness
How dare you have that on your list, and not Evil Dead.
>13 Ghosts
Holy shit. Such an underrated film. Loved it growing up. I remember the maze scene being especially scary.
You should watch a lot more horror movies. Ones from the 50's-60's are especially good. Don't expect any scares, but their really well made, lots of great actors at the time, and great atmospheric settings.
>>17737723
Is sleepaway camp really that good or is it a generic slasher film? I've always wanted to see it but I don't watch to watch a Halloween or Friday the 13th type of movie, but with a woman. Slashers have a certain stigma that just the idea of them feels very tiresome.

>>17738400
You mean the best one. Army of the Darkness is the worst one.
Splatstick forever,Bruce cambell is king!
>>17736320
No friend, you're not alone
>>17738422
No. Army of Darkness is the second best. At least it was it's own thing, and had a good sense of comedy and memorable lines. ED2 was just them re-doing a perfectly good horror film, but adding corny comedy and dumb slapstick. It wouldn't be as bad if it wasn't called Evil Dead 2. Makes it seem like a sequel when it's not. Should of just been called Evil Dead: 3 Stooges edition.
>>17738493
Good because it's a dumb fucking movie. I don't know why there are people who adore it and consider it to be a great film. It's a shark movie. I can appreciate that it was a new concept at the time and the suspense and effects are good but come on. It really should be forgotten.
>>17738461
Speaking of which. Ash Vs Evil Dead was really good. I felt the jokes could of been better, but still really good.
>>17739585
not from round here, are ya?
>>17739796
Works though. Thread seems interesting and I'm just trying to keep it alive, friend
>>17738318
Its interesting, I seen it when I was like 5 or 6 so it holds a lot of nostalgia with me.
That being said the ending was a mind fuck, its like heavy weights, without the fat kids, meets friday the 13th.
It is worth a watch and the sequels aren't the worst thing ever either.
>>17733642
>In my opinion, the 70's was the strongest decade for horror films.
It's either that or the 80s for me. It's such a tough call. The 60s was starting to go full throttle and the 90s was kind of a lackluster decade for horror with a few great exceptions.
>>17738422
I agree that Evil Dead 2 is the best of the three, I also think army of darkness is far superior to OG Evil Dead
>>17739869
The 90's were a let down for films in general
>>17739871
>I also think army of darkness is far superior to OG Evil Dead
>>17739869
Definitely the 70's. the 80's has lots of great stuff, but it was also filled with a lot more garbage and a lot more shitty shitty sequels.
>>17739871
You have the absolute worst taste.
>>17739882
It surprisingly wasn't. It was a bad decade for horror films, but everything else was pretty solid
>Quentin Tarantino films
>Kevin Smith Films
>Disney movies
>Spielberg films

There were still some great horror films in the 90's like Dusk Till Dawn, and Silence of the Lambs no matter how much they pretend and say it's not horror.
>>17737668
Is there a "best" tales of the crypt to start with or does the order not matter much
I've been watching a lot of twilight zone recently if its anything like that
>>17733282
The Screaming Room
Was a good show from 2001
Professionals examine the modern horror film, looking at characters and themes and offering interviews with directors and writers of scary movies.
sadly it's totally lost
>>17739993
>>17739993
I was referring to the Tales from the Crypt movie that came out long before the show. About 15 or so years before. In fact the movie isn't connected to the show at all. The Crypt keeper isn't in the film. It's a great horror anthology movie.
Though the series is also great. Just start with episode 1.
>>17740004
>2001
>professionals examine mordern horror films
That sounds horrible.
>>17739953
True, the 80s was the decade of bargain bin slashers and far too many sequels, but it gave birth to so many great series and stand alone movies as well. The 70s had some crap as well, but it tends to be forgotten more than the crap from the 80s.
>>17739973
Stop watching american movies, the 90's were great for horror everywhere else.
>>17739973
Jacob's Ladder is top five all time for me and that's a 90s movie, but yeah the 90s was weak for horror.
>>17740114
It's not just American movies though, there was definitely plenty of good stuff but the 90s just doesn't live up as a whole for horror, particularly not compared to the 70s, 80s, etc.
>>17740114
American movies are best movies though.
I do enjoy Japanese and italian horror films though. House is a completely insane film. I believe it even got a criterion release, that's how important it is. Suspiria is a great italian horror film. I even enjoy some Spanish horror. I usually try to stick with American and British horror because reading is not something I want to do when it comes to cinema.

It'd be odd to not hate Australians. That's like taking a shit and not wiping.
>>17740806
or in an australian's case, "what's the point"
this is honestly the best horror related documentary I've seen. It's long but worth it. It goes through all the movies, including Freddy vs. Jason
>>17740971
It's a great in-depth documentary about the Friday the 13th films, but it's not favorite. I'm not a huge fan of the franchise. I thought it was funny how positive they acted with each movie even though most of them were shit, but they acted like it wasn't. It's great if you're a fan of the series, but for me it's just okay.

Like them all though.
>>17742667
You need to watch that shit m8. It's the Texas Chainsaw Massacre of the 20s. Viewers were fainting in their seats during one infamous scene.
>>17742737
Okay let's not get carried away. The face revealing scene WAS scary for the time, but now it will have no effect on anyone. Good makeup though.
>>17741655
>It's a great in-depth documentary about the Friday the 13th films, but it's not favorite.
This isn't the one about Friday the 13th, it's about Nightmare On Elm Street.
Best Halloween coming through. It's so good, yet it gets shit on because it doesn't have albino Bill Shatner in it. They should of just kept going with the anthology idea. We'd probably have a bunch of great movies instead of just horrible sequels.
>>17742793
That's what I meant. It's all the same garbage anyway. Once slashers make it to 10+ films, there's no point to even care anymore.
>>17742756
Learn to appreciate things in the context of their time period. Does Wilde make no sense to you because Victorian culture is no longer relevant?
>>17742806
Fuck yes. I love Season Of The Witch... definitely the best of the series. The soundtrack is awesome as well. They definitely should have stuck with the anthology idea.
>>17742834
Didn't say I didn't appreciate it. I would of never of watched it if I didn't care for the history of horror. It's just your comparison is an exaggeration and misleading.
>>17742806
It doesn't beat 1 for me but it certainly beats the rest. It's sort of silly in its camp but it's fantasy, and the implications are actually scarier than anything Michael Myers could have achieved.
>>17743103
The original Halloween is not very good. Yes I know it was the first of it's kind, and movies like Ft13 and NoES copied it's formula, but I just can't get past the cliche's. it's been done to death so even the original is ruined for me. They should of just ended it after the second one.
>>17743154
Definitely F13, but ANoES made its own spin on the slasher style. I like the feel of H1 more than anything.
>>17743173
Just dump them all in the trash and stick with Texas Chainsaw Massacre. It's more original than all the rest.
>>17743186
It's easily the scariest and most creative
>>17743205
>creative
I would say Elm Street is way more creative, but I'll give you the scary part.
>>17743223
Elm Street is creative in the sense that they could work with dream elements. If it was just a burnt up guy with a knife glove, it wouldn't be that creative, so really it's not fair to compare the two. TCM is more creative because they stuck strictly with a real world approach and made what it was solely on that, whereas Halloween, ANoES, and Ft13th went with a more fantasy approach.
In a way, TCM is the purest slasher type film out there.
>>17743186
Dump the rest because it was the best? Why? They're all pretty different. TTCSM is definitely the pinnacle of slasher though. I agree on that. It's amazing that that movie is so notorious for being grisly and gory yet there's barely a drop of blood in it. It was so shocking and thematically scary that it's remembered for blood and guts that weren't even there. Serious replay value too.
>>17743316
>Elm Street is creative in the sense that they could work with dream elements. If it was just a burnt up guy with a knife glove, it wouldn't be that creative, so really it's not fair to compare the two.
>If it weren't for its creative elements it wouldn't be creative.
Well yeah, but they were there. ANoES was ambitious because it brought an element that the others didn't. TTCSM pretty much founded slasher though so it's hard to say it wasn't the most innovative.
>TCM is more creative because they stuck strictly with a real world approach and made what it was solely on that, whereas Halloween, ANoES, and Ft13th went with a more fantasy approach.
That makes it the most relatable/realistic and for that reason probably the scariest, but that doesn't make it the most creative. I think it is anyway but not for that reason.
>>17743316
>>17743353
TCM was "gritty and realistic" before that became a meme.
>>17743353
>That makes it the most relatable/realistic and for that reason probably the scariest, but that doesn't make it the most creative. I think it is anyway but not for that reason
The reason why I say it was more creative is because it's easy to be creative when you have much more to work with, like the fantasy elements I mentioned. The fact that TCM has become what it is without relying on insane ideas like coming back from the dead, or entering dreams while his victims sleep is an accomplishment. If you take all the mystical elements out of the other movies, would they be as memorable or beloved like the TCM? probably not, so that's why I say it's more creative.
>>17742820
>It's all the same garbage anyway.
this is an incredibly ignorant statement. Nightmare On Elm Street was a lot more psychological than the other series. And I watched the entire thing, and they didn't pretend that some of sequels weren't terrible.
>>17743397
I think it was more of a statement towards the franchise rather than one particular movie. It honestly leaves a bad taste in your mouth when they have shat out as many films as they did.
>>17736320
Nope. I dislike Jaws and all the sequels
>>17743407
Would you say it's Spielberg's worst?
>>17738645
Where does the remake take its place on your tier list?
>>17743406
>It honestly leaves a bad taste in your mouth when they have shat out as many films as they did
I can forgive the shitty sequels for Dream Warriors and New Nightmare. Plus, there are some good moments even in the shitty sequels.
And I know a lot of people hate New Nightmare, but I love it. The only bad part is that the kid sucks at acting, but I can forgive it because Freddy is terrifying in that movie.
>>17743395
>The reason why I say it was more creative is because it's easy to be creative when you have much more to work with, like the fantasy elements I mentioned.
Fair, but ANoES was still bold in its era. The dream element was very novel back then.
>The fact that TCM has become what it is without relying on insane ideas like coming back from the dead, or entering dreams while his victims sleep is an accomplishment.
Agreed.
>If you take all the mystical elements out of the other movies, would they be as memorable or beloved like the TCM?
No, because that's what makes them them. Again, if you take the creative elements out of course they won't be creative. I love ANoES because it's not TTCSM.
>>17743413
It was actually a decent horror film, but it doesn't have a Bruce Campbell, and it doesn't quite live up to the original. I'd always recommend the original before anything, but If you're a fan of the Evil Dead Series, I'd say check it out after seeing the trilogy.
It would be ED>AoD>ED2>Remake
>>17743409
Oh geez you put me on the spot. But, yes I think it's his worst film by far. Though I do have a soft spot for horror films that have a strong ahab role; Quint has so many memorable lines.
>>17743413
TED > ED2 > AOD > remake
I love them all. OG Evil Dead is a masterclass of its own though.
>>17743429
I'd also accept
ED>AVSED>AoD>>ED2>Remake
>>17743429
I watched the remake and it felt odd without The Bruce. Like, it lacked that magic touch that survivor guys tend to have.
Survivor guys > Survivor girls
>>17743431
You prefer Ted over all the Evil Dead movies? Where would the first one be on there?
>>17743444
To be completely fair though. The original Evil Dead wasnt great because of Bruce Campbell. He wasnt the Ash we all know and love yet. He was only the survivor character. It feels odd saying that, but it's the truth. Still though, an Evil Dead without Bruce just isn't Evil Dead. Remake is still good though for what it was.
>>17743458
And this is one of my favorite things about 1. I like paranoid survive-at-all-costs Ash better than impeccably cool Ash.
But it's also because TED is my favorite in the series.
>>17743483
I also like Ted, but when it comes to the Evil Dead Series, the first one is my favorite.
What do you think of Ash Vs Evil Dead?
>>17743507
>What do you think of Ash Vs Evil Dead?
It's ok. I like it but I'm not crazy about it. It's got some novel ideas but I've got the same problem with it that I have with ED2.
>>17743524
I'm watching ED2 now hoping I'll like it more than before. To me it's not as good as the original and it doesn't really seem like a sequel. It's just the first Evil Dead but not scary and they try to be funny which I feel doesn't work. It's not funny and anyone who thinks it is, is a fucking liar. I'm gonna give it another try. I liked it the 1st time I seen it, but It was also huge disappointment. Trading in horror for cheap comedy. Though I do feel it really works in Army of Darkness and Ash Vs Evil Dead.
>>17743540
I loved the comedy in Evil Dead 2. Then again, I did watch Dead Alive before ED2.

Is that the documentary where they compared horror movies to real world horror like war and shit? If so, that documentary was shit.

I love the whole series but that's pretty much my thing with ED2. TED was pure horror, made no bones about it, and excelled at it. Even Army Of Darkness is confident as a sci-fi/fantasy/comedy. Evil Dead 2 is that weird transitional installment, wanting to be a sort of horror comedy, but horror and comedy are inherently contrasting genres, and to excel at one is to detract from the other, upsetting the balance. Basically it can be funny/not scary, scary/not funny, or a muddy mix where both elements are there but neither actually shine. Evil Dead 2 is that to me. It's a unique movie with some iconic moments and I love it for that reason, but having said that it comes off as tone-deaf compared to the others for that reason, and it doesn't leave its mark like 1 does. I actually enjoy 2 more than AoD but at least AoD is proudly comedic.
>It's not funny and anyone who thinks it is, is a fucking liar.
I've thought about this before and I find it hard to envision someone actually laughing at ED2. It cracks smiles but it's not exactly hilarious.
No English subtitles yet, unfortunately.

You are great at explaining my feelings. I will post what you said every time someone tries to tell me ED2 is the best in the series
>>17743678
Beautiful. Still think AoD is still better than ED2 though.

Thanks, man. I just don't agree when people try to insist that Evil Dead 2 is the best in the series. I get that they're all different but 1 is a better horror and AoD is a better comedy.
I'm sure someone probably already said it but The Nightmare is incredible. Documentary about sleep paralysis by the same guy that made Room 237. What's incredible about it is that everyone that's interviewed describes the exact same things. They all sound like they got visited by greys or demons. Really well produced and at times spooky as all shit out.

Room 237 was good, but it was poorly edited and I do feel they exaggerated with all the subliminal messages they thought were in the Shining.

Oh I totally agree. It was pretty batshit at times. But it was well produced and looked good. I enjoyed the nutty moments but I kinda feel like they detracted from the serious weirdness that was going on in that film.

It's hard to believe Jack Nicholson was even old back then. Came out In 1980. He was middle age at that time and it was over 35 years ago.

Ash Vs Evil Dead was pretty great.
