What are the best horror movies of the 50's, 60's and 70's? | |
Earth Cries User ID: 26853702 United States 10/29/2014 06:04 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Another good one is The Tingler with Vincent Price. They would wire the theater seats and give small electric vibrations at appropriate times in the movie. LOL Quoting: Earth Cries Also I forgot The Fly with Vinnie Price, too. "The Tingler" was fucking epic! The ultimate Vinny B-movie! Yep, it sure was! Mark 13:20 And except that the Lord had shortened those days, no flesh should be saved: but for the elect's sake, whom he hath chosen, he hath shortened the days. “Things fall apart; the center cannot hold.” Yeats |

He even seduced and impregnated her with Cain." Genesis 3: 14-15 14The LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this...I will put enmity between you and the woman, And between your seed and her seed" Genesis 4:11-12 So the Lord said to Cain..."now you are cursed from the earth...When you till the ground, it shall no longer yield its strength to you. A fugitive and a vagabond you shall be on the earth.” I Chronicles 2:55 And the families of the scribes...These are the Kenites ["sons of Cain"] who came from Hammath, the father of the house of Rekab. Jeremiah 35 Then I set bowls full of wine and some cups before the Rekabites ["sons of Rekab"] and said to them, “Drink some wine.” But they replied, “We do not drink wine, because our forefather Jehonadab son of Rekab gave us this command: ‘Neither you nor your descendants must ever drink wine. Also you must never build houses, sow seed or plant vineyards; you must never have any of these things, but must always live in tents. Then you will live a long time in the land where you are nomads.’ We have obeyed everything our forefather Jehonadab son of Rekab commanded us...We have lived in tents and have fully obeyed everything our forefather Jehonadab commanded us. But when Nebuchadnezzar king of Babylon invaded this land, we said, ‘Come, we must go to Jerusalem to escape the Babylonianb and Aramean armies.’ So we have remained in Jerusalem.” Matthew 23 “Woe to you, scribes [Kenites/Rekabites] and Pharisees, hypocrites!...Fill up, then, the measure of your fathers. You serpents, you brood of vipers, how are you to escape being sentenced to hell? Therefore I send you prophets and wise men and scribes, some of whom you will kill and crucify, and some you will flog in your synagogues and persecute from town to town, so that on you may come all the righteous blood shed on earth, from the blood of righteous Abel to the blood of Zechariah the son of Barachiah..." |

I think it was The Beast with Five Fingers that had a disclaimer that it was not the producer's fault if viewers died of fright while watching the movie. I kept checking my pulse, lol. These 2 scared the heck out of me: Invaders from Mars The Beast with Five Fingers In high school, I saw The Exorcist. It scared me so much that I have not watched a horror movie since.

Two couples in a RV stumble across a satanic sacrifice and end up being chased across the country. It was very creepy when I was a kid and still holds up pretty well. It's not on netflix but I've found it on youtube. Also from the 70's, The World Beyond. A golum made of mud terrorizes a couple on a remote island. Also not on netflix, but on youtube. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46357628 Can't believe I forgot the "Thing", didn't scare me as much as The Exorcist but was close. Great MOVIE!! I enjoyed Shinning but didn't scare me as much as the other two. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 23943453 United States 10/30/2014 02:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Carpenter's original Halloween is the grand-daddy of most of today's slasher genre, but was far more subtle in terms of gore vs. the unseen fear and he lets the suspense build and build. Some would credit "Psycho" as perhaps the great-grandaddy. Everything today that I see is pale imitation with ramped up gore to the point of desensitizing the viewer. Like other genres the producers took it so far with endless sequels that the whole thing has no real shock value left. How are they going to top that? They have reached the point that beyond gore and shock value they can't. Rob Zombie did a decent remake but tried a sequel and it flopped. |
