Give the names of your favourite thriller and horror movies?

Yeah Good Quality movies don't come everyday. I would say Constantine and Exorcist are horror movies and have thriller look as well. Its not the ghostly faces only that makes a movie horror but its the quality and the screenplay that really classifies a movie as horror. I like the othet movies too you've mentioned but they aren't better than Exorcist and Constantine, these two movies aren't rated one of the best horror movies of all time just like that. These are real quality movies.

well, I was stating my opinions. Let's just say I completely disagree with you and you're opinion is the movies I mentioned aren't better (and FYI I didn't say they were especially because Constantine is not a horror movie in my mind!) and I don't know how you can say the movies I mentioned aren't top rated being that Nightmare, Friday the 13th and Halloween ARE THE TOP Horror films of their caliber from that era (between 1978 and 1985) and if you went to a Horror convention, I'm pretty sure everyone there would disagree with you.

you're opinion = your opinion.

These all are very good and interesting thrller movies. I've watched all of these except Penny dreadful and the manchurian one. But i'm also looking for movies that present a horror look like Final destination, SAW etc. So any movie of that kind you have in mind.......

I too feel the same about Final Destination, first two were really great but the third part lacked that thrill and excitement that the first two had. I would like to watch Penny Dreadful if it really Scared the living daylights out of you and your sister. Lets see how scary it really is, i'll watch this one as soon as possible.

I liked Final Destination 1 and 2, but the 3rd wasn't really good. The Manchurian Candadite was really good, it is more of a thriller. Penny Dreadful is a HORROR! lol. Scared the living daylights out of me and my sister (we watched it alone at night).

Thats a good list. These are some really interesting movies that you've listed. I'm unaware about Texas Chainsaw Massacre, what is the story plot of this one......

Carrie is from 1976, The Shining was 1980, both from Stephen King novels. Carrie was directed by Brian DePalma, The Shining by the masterful Stanley Kubrick. The Shining still gives me chills when I see it.

Well if it really gives me chills then i'll go watch it. The only reason i don't watch too much of old movies coz the sound effects and special effects today are far better compared to that time, so i feel maybe some movies won't scare you that much. But if it scares you then i'll watch it.

The Omen and Rosemary's baby are real quality movies but i don't know much about the other ones you mentioned like Carrie etc. Are these too old movies, i'd like to watch if they are relatively new.

They made a better remake of the original one or the original still remained better. The story looks interesting though, well all horror movies stories look interesting, you get to know how good that is only after watching it.

Yeah Some movies have the distinction of being a thriller as well as horror. So Hostel and Exorcist can be included in that category as they have a scary look to these movies. I haven't seen Amityville horror, what kind of storyline it has, anything special about this movie....

Well, there are 2 versions of the movie. THe original and the remake. I enjoyed both, but I'd watch the original first. It's based on what is supposedly a true story, though there are doubters and speculation that it was all made up these days. It's about a beautiful house that is, for all intents and purposes, possessed by evil.

Yup these are really good movies. I really like the way they present the same story with an equally new interesting plot and look for the movie. Final destination and Scream too are of the same kind but Final destination is a lot better.

I've seen Hostel but i haven't watched it right from the start so i've missed some of it. But of what i've watched its quite good. Perfect stranger, i haven't seen this one, i'll look to watch it now. Lets see how good this movie is really.

LOL for a moment i though you referred that movie as a horoor movie. I haven't seen that cartoon like movie but i've heard its quite funny, maybe i'll look to watch it sometime if i get time watching some of those good horrors and thrillers mentioned in this discussion by MyLot members.

Oh I loved all the Scream movies! They were great! Good choice! lol. Van Helsing was pretty good too.

I too like Scream but these are the old ones. I'm looking for some new movies as i've already seen all the older ones. So any new movies that come to your mind.....
