The last horror movie that I found to be genuinely scary was Rec. The Spanish are making the good horror nowadays.

Have you seen DEAD SNOW? It's on Netflix. Nazis and zombies, oh yeah! Watched that in all subtitles. Also liked THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE (the first one). DEAD SNOW was more along the lines of something I could have seen Jeff Strand pen and THE HUMAN CENTIPEDE was very creepy body horror. I will never view the same way again the statement "eat!"Man, I hate what GR does to my blog posts with all this extraneous white space. If you click over to my website, that's formatted as intended.
Are those so bad that they are good? I heard Human Centipede was banned everywhere!Have you seen Rec? I also enjoyed The Devil's Backbone, The Orphanage and Pan's Labyrinth. The Baby's Room was freaky too.
This movie was pure genius.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A8rsPu...
Doghouse. I am sure that women find it very offensive, however....LOL
Nope, haven't seen any of the movies you've recommended, Chris.CENTIPEDE (the first one, not the sequel which I haven't seen, but have heard was very, very bad) wasn't cheesy, it was unsettling. Watch it in a dark room and see what you think. The actor that plays the doctor is great! Kinda reminded me a bit of the creepiness of Donald Plesance in the original Halloween. Rent it, mon, and let me know what you think.
(I wouldn't eat while watching)
I wrote film reviews of both movies for Wicked Channel back in 2011:

I've steered away from watching many contemporary horror films because they weren't scary like older films. Once Hollywood went all sequelitis on us (Jason X? Come on, that movie blows), I started limiting my modern horror film intake.
I didn't care much for PARANORMAL ACTIVITY, but did enjoy the first couple SAW movies (and then it got silly and stupid). I enjoyed HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN and RUBBER, both for being more tongue-in-cheek than being scary.
CENTIPEDE is the last time any recent film disturbed me. I haven't seen INSIDIOUS, though, and I hear that's good.
If you liked the Human Centipede: First Sequence you probably would like Rabbit (aka Chained).http://youtu.be/Uney3BbKyjU
Good flick.
Thanks for the rec, Sean.Chained is not on Netflix streaming but is available from Redbox. Our Blockbuster just closed down. Will check out Vudu and Amazon.
Here is Rec for you guys. Rotten tomatoes gave it a 96% which is really high. It was remade in the states as Quarantine but from what I have heard they changed the last 10 minutes which was the really disturbing part, at least for me.http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/10009...
