Horror Film Help Needed!!
Hello everyone,
I'm in the middle of a University project which requires me to design posters for a horror film festival (which I will make up!). I don't know that much about horror films, but I know that I'd like to possibly make it a festival which is kind of 'non-gore', where all the films are more psychological horrors than the ones with monsters in them! I've been doing my research, but I'd like to get more views from the fans themselves, which is why I'm asking you all if you have any recommendations, suggestions or ideas as to where I could get more information or what films I could watch. Any help whatsoever will be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!:) :) |
Brilliant, thanks. Whos' the director for that Session 9? Oh and have you been to any horror film festivals before?

Dark remains
There are tons if you´re into Asian horror as well. "Ju-on" for instance. ;) |
Cool, thanks to you too! My mate is into Asian horror...but is'nt it really gore-y?
|
Not all Asian horror is gory. Some has none at all.
As far as good psychological films, it doesn't get much better than 'The Other' in my opinion. Not to be confused with 'The Others' with Nicole Kidman, The Other is a brilliant 1970's PG horror film that was out of print for a long time. As luck would have it for you (and a lot of horror fans) it recently got a DVD release. |

Oh yes, and the old horror classic "The innocents" based on Henry James novel "Turn of the screw". |
You probably ought to give The Blair Witch Project a go as well.

Black Christmas unless the word "cunt" constitutes gore.
and if you're looking for the goreless flicks you've prolly been bludgeoned with with "Men, Women and Chainsaws" and should try and slip some shit past the "intellectuals". Psychological Horrors? You can't go past Maniac, Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer, Deranged or Crazed (<----- the most tastefull of the bunch). Total descents into madness with out some slithering porno shakesphere tongue fucking bullshit. But from what you're talking about you wanna check out Manhunter or Dressed To Kill. How about Raising Cain? Easily the most overlooked flick for this kinda shit. http://www.soundtrackcollector.com/i...ising_cain.jpg Body Parts The Hitcher Near Dark (...... fuck check out Eric Red in general I haven't for awhile there's bound to be a bunch of dope shit with his name attached). and if you're from NZ you might be able to grab a copy of Bad Blood (not a horror flick but definatley fits in with these kinda flicks). But whatever. Most of the goreless/less exploitative shit is a thriller or drama flick that the horror kids sit in front off (and enjoy 9/10 times). |
