    Period Horror Films?

    What's your favorite(s) horror films set in the past? I'd say mine are The Others, Dead Birds, Sleepy Hollow. I think horror films set in the past are pretty cool usually, especially if the filmmakers take advantage of it and use excellent visuals and props.


    (PS - I posted this because I remembered talking about it before somewhere. I thought it was here originally and did a search but found nothing. So sorry if this is indeed a repost.)

    Braindead is a period horror film....even though it's ambiguous about it's time frame, you can still tell it's the 50s.

    Ravenous is a good one. Ginger Snaps 3 aint bad. Perfume is amazing, not really a horror movie though.

    I always wondered what the hell was going on in the background with that movie. Seeing the cars and what not - but it takes place in New Zeland, having lived in America all my life, who knows what the 50's were like in NZ?

    Dead Alive all the way.

    I loved "From Hell" and "Army of Darkness" is great too.

    Worst: An American Haunting (as far as period peices that I've seen go, I'm sure many of you can think of worse films than this.)

    I hear most of the people who liked Perfume were fans of the director, that if you weren't familiar with his work it's hard to enjoy; would you agree with that?

    And how can you sully the good name of The Devil's Rejects with a "meh"?

    I don't even know who directed Perfume lol. I just know I liked some of the visuals the movie had and the story was crazy. Ending sucked, but oh well.


    As for the Devil's Rejects "meh"-ing. I just didn't like it. Started out good, went downhill after the semi-truck "incident", then had a cool ending. Meh.

    If any of you guys have been to metaphilm.com, they've got these analysis of movies and I've been writing one for Devil's Rejects over the past few weeks, when I post it, I'd appreciate you guys taking a look.
