Creep (2007)

Creep is a tired, cliche film. It is hard to follow and does little to inspire one to bother trying to follow it. Where is the vision of today's genre film makers?

The Legend of Hell House (1973)

A bunch of psychics are hired to "exorcise" (for lack of a better term) a house of its "ghosts." Two of the psychics are mediums, a spiritual medium and physical medium. The third psychic is a paranormal physicist who doesn't believe in spirits, just electromagnetic influence. Along for the ride is the physicist's wife. In classic haunted house fashion, things start going wrong and the house starts to fight back. Fun fact: the malevolent spirit Belasco who haunts Hell House shares his name with the demon who kidnapped Illyana Rasputin in 1980s Uncanny X-Men! Thanks, Chris Claremont!

The Omen (1976)

The Omen is another horror classic.
A couple's child is switched at birth with the antichrist. Its a really good satanic thriller and, much like the Shining, though obviously to a lesser extent, deserves its spot in not only horror and genre canon but american filmic canon itself.

Them (2006)

First of all, this movie doesn't have any giant ants.
Second of all, this movie is pretty solid. A couple is terrorized in their house by a terrifying unseen force and there is a twist at the end. It sure is a French horror film from the mid-00s. Better than Haute Tension, worse than Irreversible. Definitely worth watching, maybe not a must-see. In a phrase, "tense but shallow."
Third of all, French is probably my favorite romance language.

Frozen (2010)

Some 20-somethings go skiing and get stuck on a lift. They are trapped there for days. How ever will they survive?
The concept was cool, but in order to be a full length film, it has to have a writer who can back it up. Frozen lacked anything even vaguely resembling competant scriptwritng and that combined with mediocre direction left me feeling really disappointed by it.
There was one neat scene where a character gets their hand frozen to the lift rail and then rips their skin off. That was easily the neatest part of the movie, for whatever that's worth.

Hellraiser (1987)

OWNAGE MOVIE
Old house, dead body, puzzle box that is the key to dimensions of unimaginable pleasure and pain, human sacrifice, and torture.
Jesus wept.

Monsters (2010)

A photographer and the heiress he was hired to escort back to America are trapped in Mexico with no passport and no money. And also there are a ton of monsters along the border and its about to be Monster season. They hire on with a group of smugglers, sneaking people across the Contaminated Zone.
It was shot with a barebones crew, on-location non-professional supporting actors/extras, and essentially homemade special effects. Its a gorgeous film with really above average acting, writing, pacing, etc. Its just a really good, really fun movie. I liked it.
