upcoming horror movies

if anyone's into horror movies like i am i suggest this site.

http://www.upcominghorrormovies.com/

they have all kindsa trailers for upcoming horror.
they even have asian horror up there. which is infact my favorites for horror.
america just doesnt cure my thurst with two years of remakes. i was very excited when they started remaking the asian horror because my fiance refuses to watch subtitled movies....so this way i can watch my favorite horror movies and he can join in. but alas, they're remakes make me wanna cry.
the ring wasnt bad...but dark water, the grudge with buffy the vampire slayer?

ouch.

I feel the same way you do Swagger about horror movies, and the Asian movies right now are the most creative. Hollywood will come around someday hopefully. A couple of hack and slashers are ok a year, but come on, we want to be scared, and even better unnerved. And that is where movies like the Ring and Blair Witch kick ass. It's not about the cat jumping out of the trash can anymore. We have all seen that. We want to get mentally freaked out. Or at least I do.

What was that movie where those people had to stay overnight in that scary mansion to win an inheritance or something? And the house used to be an asylum. The movie sucked over all, but there was a scene where the people where wondering around and some character was filming. At one point she films this room and she could see ghosts working at an operating table or something. And then a ghost looks up at the person filming! That was so cool. How they could make that one awesome scene in a otherwise blah movie is beyond me.....

Awesome, thanks for the link Swagger! I am down with the horror flicks also, really really enjoy them. Have to watch them alone (wife won't watch anything if there is a drop of blood or something remotely scary) and in the dark (just because I think it's more fun).

I haven't checkout out any of the asian flicks. Can you get them through blockbuster online or anything? Any you recommend? Would be cool to try something new.

they do have some at blockbuster.
'Audition' is amazing..a must see, suicide club, and ichi the killer are all pretty safe.
sometimes they get a little crazy with it and its just obscene.
obscenely gorey=living hell
obscenely wierd=uzumaki(but good, visuals are really neat)

i havent read any of their reviews but
http://www.upcominghorrormovies.com/asian.php
has some

It pisses me off that they'd remove such a cool building. I mean just from an architectural standpoint, all of it should have remained standing.

The almighty dollar wins again

No one cares about old historic buildings anymore. Its a real shame. Nothing can withstand greed and corporate money. We here in B-more had "Memorial Stadium". It was an actual WW2 Memorial to the Vets. Now its a freakin' parking lot for condos and a school campus. Up in PA, there is the abandoned Eastern State Penitentiary(http://www.easternstate.org/. If any of you Mid-Atlantic PGLers want to get a group together, I would love to check that place out. They also do special events during Halloween.

Good to see some of us agree on the matter! Cool building in that link! We have a prison(Mansfield) we sleep in once a year, its quite an event. Supposed to be haunted but I just go for the pastries and coffee, lol. Parts of Shawshank Redemption were filmed there.



As some of us sat around meeting other folks attending the event, we found out that we had more in common than we thought.....

360 fans!!

We might turn the '07 meeting into an 360 Lan party

Thanks for fixing the link Spoon. It seems like an awesome place to checkout. I am not sure if they do it or not here, but a night tour would be the best.

Not sure who has or hasn't seen this, but Danger and I watched The Descent last night. I have to say, as a horror fan, this was one of the best I've seen this year.

I actually had nightmares about it, something that hasn't happened since Session 9.

Ah, Session 9. I went in with such low expectations for that flick (not a big David Caruso fan, I have to admit), but that movie was amazing. I don't know if I've ever been as creeped out as I was watching that late at night with the lights out. Good times!
