Horror Movies From The Past Decade Which Are Timeless
When it comes to scary movies, there has been somewhat of a revival in Hollywood in recent years. Horror movies are cheap to make and tend to do well at the box office. Most of these films are not very good, however. But there have been some great ones in recent years.
If you are looking to get into horror movies it is tough to sift through all the bad ones. Here are some scary movies that are worth seeing.
If you have never seen the first Saw movie, you may find it enjoyable whether or not you are a fan of horror films. Sure, you may have to look away a few times due to excessive gore, but anyone can appreciate the plot line and twists of this movie. Put it this way, there is a reason it has had 6 sequels made.
Forget about the fact that it is a scary movie, The Ring is just an awesome film. The plot is captivating and a great movie to watch for anyone who wishes they liked horror films but have a hard time getting through it. It is scary but incredibly entertaining, and Naomi Watts gives a great performance.
A film that may not have gotten great reviews (as few horror movies do) but I still found very scary and had me thinking was "Quarantine." Dexter star Jennifer Carpenter plays the lead in this one and does a great job of making the viewer believe that she is terrified.
The Descent is another movie that may not have necessarily done well at the box office, but still achieved somewhat of a cult following after it was put on DVD. This movie truly made me uncomfortable and combines elements of gore and claustrophobia.
While remakes generally are not good, I very much enjoyed The Hills Have Eyes remake. It was scary, over the top, horrific, and even funny at times. I will not go into details, but there is one scene in this movie that has stayed with me, and is certainly not for the squeamish.
These are just some of the great horror films to be released recently. More to come soon.
