A Nightmare on Elm Street (2010)

Samuel Bayer

With its mess of a script, wasted potential, and questionable effects work, the new Nightmare on Elm Street is sadly disappointing and definitely not made for fans of the original. Those who like Platinum Dunes style of...

Candyman 4

Development Hell

English

N/A

Set in New England in an all-girls college where a professor is the descendant of Candyman, yet she doesn't know who or what he is.

Child's Play

Limbo

English

Don Mancini

No official plot yet, but the original told the story of a killer who transferred his soul into a doll, which comes to life and attempts to take over the body of a young boy.

Freddy vs. Jason (2003)

Ronny Yu

A silly plot, but who cares? It has a lot of good blood and gore and the fights between the two horror icons are pretty damn fun! Personally I would have liked it more, but I'm not much of a Freddy fan, so I couldn...

Friday the 13th 2

Development Hell

English

N/A

No official plot yet, but it will likely take place sometime after the events of the first film.

Friday the 13th Part 2 (1981)

Steve Miner

It's not perfect, but it comes as close to it as a slasher sequel can. With a charismatic leading lady, good pacing, and a frightening bagheaded Jason, Part 2 has everything you could ask for. A must see for any lover...

Friday the 13th Part 3 (1982)

Steve Miner

While my least favorite of the first four, Friday the 13th Part 3 still delivers all the goods needed to make a slasher fan happy. A technical achievement at the time that outgrossed Jaws 3-D and Amityville 3-D, me thinks,...

Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter (1984)

Joseph Zito

Friday the 13th: The Final Chapter is a strong entry into one of the most beloved (and berated) horror franchises of all time. Boasting strong direction, likable actors (for the most part), and a copious amount of badassery...

Halloween (1978)

John Carpenter

The slasher film that started it all. Inspired by the works of the late-great Alfred Hitchcock, John Carpenter manages to scare the audience without the overuse of gore or pop-up scares. No, he gets the audience by simply...

Halloween (2007)

Rob Zombie

So, is this a good movie? Yes, it is, but is it a good remake? No, it isn't. I saw this film for what it was -- a good slasher, and obviously isn't better than the original. However, it is an interesting take on...

Halloween 4: The Return of Michael Myers (1988)

Dwight H. Little

Halloween 4 is a worthy sequel that went back to the basics that made the original the classic it is today. While the mask was a poor decision, the overall tone and the pants shitting ending made up for the short comings and...

Hellraiser (1987)

Clive Barker

A horror classic that every fan of the genre should see. Definitely recommended.

Hellraiser: Revelations (2011)

Victor Garcia

This installment is a complete disgrace to the Hellraiser name and an abomination that I'd like to soon forget. The film is boring, the acting and dialogue is bad, the story is terrible, and the new Pinhead is a...

Jason Lives: Friday the 13th Part VI (1986)

Tom McLoughlin

Jason Lives is a tricky film to examine because while it doesn't stray too far away from the tired but true slasher formula, it excels behind the camera with a tight script, beyond competent directing, and phenomenal...

Leatherface: The Texas Chainsaw Massacre III (1990)

Jeff Burr

A very entertaining sequel to a classic series. Definitely worth a check.

Seed of Chucky (2004)

Don Mancini

Fans of the series will seriously be disappointed in this. I personally thought Bride was a better and more entertaining film. Worth a check if you're into Chucky, but don't expect much at all

Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Beginning (2006)

Jonathan Liebesman

The film's aim to be more realistic, bloody, and violent than the '03 version succeeded, but doesn't offer quite much more in terms of story. Sure we're shown how some things came to be with the family,...

Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation (1994)

Kim Henkel

While not as bad as some people make it out to be, it's still pretty freakin' bad. Whoever thought that putting Leatherface in a dress was a good idea needs to seriously fist themselves. It's watchable for the...

The Texas Chainsaw Massacre (1974)

Tobe Hooper

One of my favorite horror films. This is a violent and edgy cult film that leaves you thinking about it weeks after viewing it. Highly recommended for any horror fan.
