Morgan... Because everyone needs someone to understand. He is all yours.
Buck up, Lil Cowgirl!
19. The Headless Horseman (1922) I'm a sucker for any production of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow story and this silent film was no exception. Interestingly, it starred Will Rogers as Ichabod Crane; he was really good in the role.
I think Flake would agree when I say, "Thanx for the warning".
18. The Ward. Not such a great movie. There are some interesting moments, but in general I can't say I really like it. The idea is not that bad, but it could have been way better.

Tonight's selection was the 2013 remake of Carrie. Eh. It was okay. The casting was abidingly strange, and the end plain old sucked, but it was watchable, once. I need to go back and see what number I'm on!
Alrighty. My list thus far:
2014 SKMB HORRORFEST!
1) Legend of Hell House
2) The House that Dripped Blood
3) Torture Garden--1967 Amicus anthology
4) Dementia 13-definitely the grandaddy of the modern slasher film
5) Smiley-urban legend-type horror film.
6) Dracula-the Lugosi original.
7) John Carpenter's Vampires-Wow. So bad.
8) Fright Night-1985 original. Can't say enough good about this one
9) Nightmare on Elm Street--the original
10) Vault of Horror-1972 British horror anthology. Every bit as good as Dana Jean noted!
11) Tales From the Crypt-1971 British horror anthology.
12) Gallery of Horror-1967 anthology. Bad, bad, bad…but hilariously so
13) You're Next-- a standard home invasion movie
14) Dead Within--This was a nifty little contagion movie!
15) Return of Dracula (1958)-It's really atmospheric and creepy--a neat little vampire story.
16) Night of the Living Dead (the original)
17) Nosferatu-original. Max Schreck was very creepy, and definitely the best part of this movie.
18) Freaks-I think it qualifies because it freaked people out so very much when it was originally released
19) Shadow of the Vampire- I didn't love it, but the leads were very good.
20) Dead of Night (1954)-I quite enjoyed it
21) Mark of the Vampire-Tod Browning's 1935 remake of his London After Midnight. Pretty good movie!
22) Masters of Horror-episodes 1-4. Horror anthology series that ROCKS!
23) The Wasp Woman-I liked it when I was a kid; still fun
24) Carrie (2013) Eh. It was okay-watchable, once.

Masochist, like me.What the hell is wrong with me?!
Not sure I would've called it pleasurable.Masochist, like me.
I just cannot ignore a "do not open/look at this".
Me neither, unless it concerns an sK book I haven't read, but then I avoid threads about those titles in the first place.Not sure I would've called it pleasurable.

15. The Old Dark House 1963
Fun movie about a car salesman who ends up at a family estate in the middle of a whodunit. All kinds of eccentric, kooky characters. I liked it.
16. Warning Sign 1985
About an accident at a biotech plant. Even though it was a genetically engineered virus that was the culprit, was a little too close to current events for me to really enjoy. It did have Jeffrey DeMunn in it, (Dale from Walking Dead), 30 years younger!
17. Big Driver
This story was tough to read and was tough to watch. Maria Bello did a really great job, I thought.

Thanks, skimom! My son and I are watching these movies together and he's picking out every one we watch. He has Asperger's Syndrome and is TOTALLY OBSESSED with every aspect of the film industry. For example, he can cite from memory the exact amount of money (right down to the penny) every number one movie has grossed since May, 1981. Every time we are considering watching a movie we ask him what it ranks on IMdB and how it scores at Rotten Tomatoes and he tells us right off the top of his head. Yes, we have our own little Roger Ebert.You've found some of the most interesting old movies! Inspirational!
Thanks, N_N!I don't remember this story at all. I have to read it again.

I am too late to list what I've watched so far?
22.) Devil's Knot (2013)
More of a crime drama, based on a true story. So very heart wrenching. The storyline got really convoluted in the middle somewhere.
