" I DUNT DREENK...ViNE'

I like some of the comedies. Not a fan of the "serious" ones.

i'll see your Dead and Loving it and raise you another Mel B hit --

Young Fronkensteeen...

Not dissing either film, they're both very funny, but neither of them are frightening.

There's only one film that mixes both successfully and that's An American Werewolf in London.

The scary bits are very scary, and the funny bits are very funny.

Talking of Nosferatu, a very good film is Shadow of the Vampire which is a fictional account of the making of the film.

In this version the actor playing Count Orlok, Max Shreck, is a real vampire, and the director has promised him the leading lady once the film is completed.

i saw it , pretty good, maxy was a really hunk wasnt he

Some excellent performances from a great cast, John Malkovich, Eddie Izzard and Willem Defoe, who was really good as Shreck.

I'd throw in there Dawn of the Dead - the original - I think it is was 1978. Although a true horror movie - it had what I would call funny parts - the whole mall scene and how some of the zombies appeared.

I'd agree also with Werewolf in London - thought it was a good horror mixed with good comedy.

Sean of the Dead was another UK "Hormedy" that was great.

The 1968 version of Night of the Living Dead, by George Romero. Cult classic. Must be seen the first time in a drive in movie or in a movie house in Brooklyn where they yell out “save me the big pieces!”

the scalpel in the thigh was pretty scary to my 9 year old self...

Nine!

When it came out over here it had an AA certificate, those no longer exist, but it meant you had to be over 14 to see it.

You were too young.

even if you were accompanied by an adult?

Best horror I've seen recently was Doctor Sleep, the sequel to The Shining.


Stephen King's novel The Shining is considered to be one of the author's greatest works. Stanley Kubrick's movie, The Shining is considered to be one of the greatest pieces of horror cinema ever made. And yet, the author of the novel famously hates the movie based on his work. Doctor Sleep is the new film that attempts to act as sequel to both book and movie, and Stephen King thinks its so good, it redeems The Shining movie in his eyes.

Stephen King has made no secret of his feelings of Stanley Kubrick's movie. While most people consider it a masterpiece, King believes the movie largely misses the point of the book that he wrote. However, that's apparently not the case with Doctor Sleep. King says the new movie is so good, it actually redeems the Kubrick movie in his eyes.
