Title: who can help me find some good horror titles? Post by: Stonieboi on October 10, 2013, 04:35:11 AM I'm not sure if I'm posting this in the right place, but I need help coming up with some good horror b-movies to watch with the family this month. Any suggestions? Between the late 70s to early 90s please. Thanks!

Tough to know what you might like, but maybe some of these relatively family-friendly, relatively good movies from the 1970s: HORROR EXPRESS (1972) - Evil head on a trans-Siberian train Some of the later Hammer movies with Chrsitopher Lee and/or Peter Cushing The Abominable Dr. Phibes (http://www.badmovies.org/movies/phibes/) Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles? Post by: Stonieboi on October 10, 2013, 08:21:10 AM thanks! I love all horror, I was really hoping someone would name some movies I probably wouldn't remember on my own.
Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles? Post by: Ted C on October 14, 2013, 08:53:07 AM I rather like John Carpenter's Prince of Darkness. Pretty creepy, if you ask me.
If you'd prefer something more in the bad/silly column, look for Ghosts of Mars. Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles? Post by: voltron on October 14, 2013, 12:13:32 PM Just Before Dawn

If that's true and this person is looking for softer PG titles, I should warn him (and you, dear viewers) that you if you decide to venture Beyond The Door, you do so at your own risk... -bDdncqvtfQ Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles?

Shock Waves and Don't Look In The Basement would fit the bill nicely as far as "soft" horror goes. I highly reccomend The Little Girl Who Lives Down The Lane - not quite horror, but a great little suspense flick that the kids may like. Also Let's Scare Jessica To Death and Don't Be Afraid Of The Dark (original natch) are great too.Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles?

Many nights as a kid were spent sleepless (even though we had 4 or 5 of us in the same room) and to this day it no longer affects me, but is more of a fond look back at what was an all-around fun time in my life. Now, the movie I posted about just prior, Beyond The Door STILL seriously scares me to this day to the point that just watching that TV spot sent about 2 minutes of shivers up my spine with about a million goosebumps as a side order! :buggedout: Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles? Post by: retrorussell on October 15, 2013, 11:47:47 PM I didn't find THE FOG to be particularly bloody; that might fit the bill.
Also, THE CHANGELING BURNT OFFERINGS POLTERGEIST TRILOGY OF TERROR ASYLUM VAULT OF HORROR Are all PG-13 or so worthy. Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles? Post by: crackers on October 17, 2013, 03:45:30 AM The Monster Squad. Great family horror.
Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles? Post by: indianasmith on October 17, 2013, 06:46:04 AM HELLNIGHT with Linda Blair was good. Great suspense, no nudity, some language.
Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles? Post by: major jay on October 17, 2013, 07:03:34 AM I'll second THE CHANGELING.
Another good one, especially if you have younger kids, would be the 1960 version of THIRTEEN GHOSTS. Title: Re: who can help me find some good horror titles? Post by: JayJayM12 on October 17, 2013, 01:04:37 PM The Monster Squad. Great family horror. Couldn't agree more. If you are talking about watching it with a family that includes young ones, the I think The Monster Squad is probably the best family horror film. So good...
