Tend to steer clear of horror generally, but the best one I've seen in recent years was The Orphanage. I was properly scared in that one. Practically no gore either (aside from when the old lady gets hit by the ambulance and has her jaw ripped off).

EDIT - Huzzah! I've just taken this totally off topic thread to 13 pages

I own the Mario Bros. on DVD. Apart from the fact that it rapes the source materiel, it that bad. It's not good. But it isn't horrible either.

Tried watching Zardoz last night, which the wife owns on DVD for some reason. After 20 mins chuckling at the general silliness of it all, I started to find it excruciatingly painful and had to turn it off.

See I have zero interest in the the Saw story, nor the gore, so I don't watch it.

But as an engineer, the traps are interesting from a Rube Goldberg machine POV.

The problem is that they don't give really good details on each one in the movies.

If I there were a DVD featurette of all of the Saw Traps, how they were designed to work, etc. I'd probably get it.

Agreed. This is some of Connery's best work.

Ice Pirates is a pretty solid pic. The Pirate Movie is bloody awful in a good way.

Still, you should rent a good painting/scenery movie and get some models painted. Like Enemy at the Gates.

Soooo many options ....

Dark City. A man struggles with memories of his past, including a wife he cannot remember, in a nightmarish world with no sun. Weird movie but one of my top 5.

Screamers. or Screamers: The Hunting (aka Screamers 2) Sci-fi robots hunting humans.

Videodrome ... Horror? Sci-fi film cable-TV programmer acquires a new kind of programming for his station and then it gets weird

Yeah, Dark City came out a year before The Matrix and was entirely superior IMO.

and it's got Ian Richardson in it.

I'm not a fan of dragon ball Z, in fact i hate it. Well congratulation Hollywood you manage to remove the last of the plot. Any one who gets a chance to watch this don't its a waste of time.

Sadly enough I was actually looking forward to that film. I'm not a big Dragonball Z fan really, but I liked the show and would have liked to see a live action version if for no other reason than to see how they do it.

I dunno...leave it to Hollywood to get everything wrong in almost every conceivable way.

Dragonball Z was one of my favourite shows as a younger kid, and yes the movie sucked. On Dracula, Keanu was terrible while Dracula was pretty good. And finally, Komodo vs Cobra was the biggest load of gak I've ever watched.

Watchmen was the last horror movie I was disgusted at.. 50's attitude to women is more horrorfying then fantastical bs.

Funny how Luna saying she has never watched Alien all the way through turned this into a debate on daft horror films.

Perhaps we should call the result now. I think Legoburner is a worthy winner.
