The Descent (2006, R)
This movie defies several of the most terrible normalities of modern horror movies. Even when it uses "gotcha" scares it doesn't come off terribly because they are well-placed. With wonderful acting, cinematography, and music, this movie taps into our natural fears of claustrophobia, darkness, and the unknown. It has GREAT acting from all of the female leads, I can't stress enough how refreshing that is to see in a horror movie these days. And oh my goodness...CHARACTER DEVELOPMENT! What? In a horror movie?....NO WAY! A horror movie were you actually care about the characters. For proving that horror movies can be taken seriously (not to mention scaring the hell out of me)...it is one of my favorites. |

Saw (2004, R)
Pretty much pioneered the coming of age of the "horror torture" flick that seems to be all the rave now (see "Hostel", "Wolf Creek," "Turistas",etc.). Brilliantly executed plotline, something missing from most other horror movies...this means you Texas Chainsaw Massacre remakes...and a KILLER ending! |

28 Weeks Later... (2007, R)
This movie was a great horror movie. Scary as hell...and I do mean as hell! Besides that, did a decent job of painting an apocalyptic view of society and doesn't miss a beat. Only falls into a few of the ridiculous cliches seen in all horror movies which (although it doesn't sound like it) is a definite plus. |
