What is your favorite setting for horror movies?

[Mr. DS]

I picked rural housing because of the wacky inbred monster potential.  I have to say though, any movie set on the open sea is frightening to me.  The ocean both makes me happy yet also scares me.

The local tavern

Ah, yes.  The tavern.  Often where Peter Cushing stopped for some soup, crusty bread, and wine before continuing on to the castle . . .

Don't forget the busty barmaids.

I choice the hotel because, its common to go to a hotel and feel dirty. But theres pretty much a top movie for all the settings so it was hard to pick

Hey, welcome aboard hdjanks.

The local tavern was always a good stop for the vampire hunter.  He could get some grub, sip some brandy, and learn the mood of the villagers - how they felt about Dracula's castle up on the hill or about the vampire's legend.

thanks the welcome, well the Hammer taverns are cool , I wouldn't mind being stuck in that time period with the Vampires
I think its just a matter of what setting you think really puts you below the mark of making it till the end of the movie.
And The ocean, middle of the Artic , deep in the caves. You pretty much have a 85% chance of getting , well you know... dead

I voted for "other" because...




An Island provides a reason people can't just leave, usually.

Like Killer Shrews or Bloodlust.

Castle with a dungeon and torture chamber, can't really beat a good racking with a few thumb screws and iron maiden ... medieval torture was just so creative.
