imnotyourbabe10 5,995 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 Hi there fellow Mons†ers! Happy October and all things horror here in the US (and wherever the season is celebrated elsewhere!) Just wanted to make a post to share favorite horror films with each other. I’m a big spooky movie buff, but know I am still missing out on some films. Below, I listed some of my favorites. What are your guys’ go-to’s this time of year? Also, I’d be curious to learn more about warlock mythos, crystals, and faeries (an area of lore I am unfamiliar with). I also realize these films are US/Western-centric, so please share more multicultural films, friends. Classic Films (B&W - 60's) Spoiler Haxan: Witchcraft Through the Ages Nosferatu The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari Vampyr The Island of Lost Souls The Eyes without a Face Carnival of Souls Cat People House of Wax (1953) Universal Monsters (Dracula, Frankenstein, The Mummy, Creature from the Black Lagoon) Godzilla series The Innocents The Fly The Uninvited I Walked with a Zombie Whatever Happened to Baby Jane?

SKANK 14,288 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I remember seeing The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari as a kid and having my mind blown by how incredible it was. The German expressionist set design is still so influential to modern horror. It's great to see it on your list. I definitely am going to be checking out a few of these movies, you have great taste.

PrincessGUY 310 Posted October 8, 2021 Share Posted October 8, 2021 I have a soft spot for all the classic slashers but Nightmare is my top in that category! Classic b/w horror faves are lugosi’s Dracula, night of the living dead also a horror movie that I think doesn’t get enough credit is The Poughkeepsie Tapes although a lot of people find it really uncomfortable to watch. I practically live for the horror genre but I’m drawing a blank rn Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
