[buffyslayedme717]

Frontier(s)
Inside
Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer
Midnight Meat Train
Grizzly Park
Dark floors
Mother of Tears
The Orphanage
30 Days of Night
Otis

In that order, and about the only decent horror flicks all year.

Decent picks...with the exception of Grizzly Park...that movie bored me to tears.

Dude, that movie was so hilarious! I mean, the scene at the end answering the question about the implants, classic! Not to mention that things didn't turn out the way I had first imagined, it took a couple of interesting turns I wasn't expecting, and there was some pretty good gore. Plus, it was something different for once. All in all, it was a solid 6/10 imo. Thanks though. It was hard putting that list together, kind of a disappointing year.

[buffyslayedme717]

I agree the implant was great...and if the rest of the movie had been as entertaining as the last fifteen minutes then it would have been phenomenal. I would go with a 5/10 because it was at least competently made. And that song was beyond irritating. Yeah, really disappointing horror year. 2009 already looks to be better.

[levil666]

I hear ya. I actually had forgotten about that horrible song, almost as bad as the one in See No Evil, that takes it down a peg, but still, the killfest really made it worthwhile. Plus, the PSA at the end which left it open for a sequel... sad thing is, although it isn't that good, for this year, it actually was.

1 - The Strangers
2 - The Ruins
3 - Funny Games remake
4 - The Mist
5 - Inside
6 - Teeth
7 - The Signal

I got seven... and one might be from last last year. 2009 looks a lot better already for horror.

[levil666]

Oh yeah, Teeth, I had forgotten that one. Good one, I have nevre squirmed that much in a movie before.:bigthumbup:

[strtfghtr]

was the mist 08 or 07?

I definitely saw it this year and loved it.

08, good until the end. They totally raped King's ending, but Wally kicked ass. The end made me a sad panda.

[buffyslayedme717]

The Mist was released in November of 07. Good film none the less.

[levil666]

Oh yeah, dvd was 08... seems so long ago now... still feel meh about it.

[BooBerry]

Yeah I was sure some were late 2007 but meh. Like I've said, 08 wasn't really great for horror, especially in theaters. 09 looks pretty good.

Machine Girl

Movie Rocked! Loved the "Drill Bra"

[joykilla]

I'm redoing my list!

I just hope 2009 will be better for horror films.

I liked "The Strangers" and "House" the most but there was some decent ones out there as well. Such as "Jack Brooks: Monster Slayer", "Quarantine", "Diary of the Dead", "Carver", and some others I can't think of at the moment.

[levil666]

I also forgot to include Killer Pad on my list, but it might be tied with Otis.

[Tina]

The Strangers has to be my favorite but I also enjoyed The Signal!

[Doc Awesome]

Cloverfield
The Strangers
Otis (Big Surprise)
The Mist

And of those 4 only 2 of them were good enough for me to actually buy and enjoy for multiple viewings.

[XavierRed69]

The Strangers
Quarentine
Teeth
Let the Right One In
Funny Games
The Orphanage
Diary of the Dead (though not as great as I anticipated)



Thats all I can manage to scrape up..

[IamCorvus]

Strangers, Diary of the Dead

Couldn't stand Quarantine, Mirrors, Unborn (though her undies, and the contents there within rocked), nor the ruins.

[Vincenzo Incendio]

I don't think I can come up with 10 horror movies I really liked in 2008.

Quarantine, MMT and The Orphanage were alright.
