Nice to see someone appreciate the classics! Even the reeeeeeeeeeal classics! Nosferatu still manages to creep me out, Max Shrek plays him excelently.
The Shinning will always be my favorite horror movie, but I'm very partial to the Evil Dead (Army Of Darkness wasn't so much horror as the previous two though), Friday The 13th (Always liked Jason better than Freddy
) and The Thing (though more sci-fi horror really). Those are the only ones I can think of right now, but I know theres way more.

My sons and I watched the Evil Dead tri maybe more often than the Warriors.
Love Nash.
We had a lot of fun with this.
Freddie has always been a big fav of mine. My oldest son and I have seen them all at a theatre or most at the drive in. Even loved the tv series they had for a while of this (where are the reruns)!
Texas Chainsaw Mass, my wife and I saw when we first married and I stopped picking up hitckhikers starting the next day.
Liked the 2nd Shining the best (very much so) Jack was great but don't know for some reason the sequal did it for me.
Psycho 1 and 2 were great.
You want old? Mysterious Island from the early 60s and Atlantis the lost Continant. Really liked these when I was a little guy. (A long time ago)
Will add a few more later know I'm forgettin some.Â

man, is that the one about Atlantis, that starts out with the 2 fisherman, the father, and son.
that find the girl in the water, and she's a princess from atlantis?
and she talks the son, into taking her back to Atlantis?
and he ends up a slave, and they do all the "man-beast" transformations, on the slave's!!??
but i remember, he escapes, and does so, before it all goes south!!
REAL SOUTH!!

Thats it! My Mom at the time worked at a place that made Crystals and I had her bring me home a bunch so I could make a death ray out of em like in the movie.
Never did work. Must have been because they were the rejects.
Forgot about the man-beast transformations gonna have to check this out again soon.
but i remember, he escapes, and does so, before it all goes south!!
