I thinking I've seen a lot of horror but am always on the look out for something new.
I like most of the classics , a la, Texas Chainsaw, Exorcist, The Shining etc
Also love European horror , in particular the French Extremity stuff and Giallo.
Some American, UK and Asian stuff is great too, especially some of the Iranian or Turkish horror. Love it.
Any recommendations ? I'm particularly unacquainted with pre-70's horror (Hitchcock aside)..... I always feel like it might be a bit tame.

Watched 'Hereditary' last night. Not really sure what happened.
Original Friday the 13th is absolutely hilarious.
I saw it last night as a matter of fact. Good film. Enjoyed it. Twistier than I expected. I like the subtlety of Asian horror....rarely get overly gross-out , and when it does it seems less gratuitous than the US stuff.
Ones I've enjoyed recently "a girl walks home alone at night" and "Baskin"
Try watching Love if you like that kind of thing. Didn't find it very scary though! https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3774694/
Legend of hell house is on tonight , that's a bit dated but creepy and Gayle hunnicutt is sexy as my trousers in it
Lots of horror films shock , gore and jump and make you look away now and then in my view a good horror haunts you, and I can only think of a few Exorcist, The Shining ,The Birds and Evil Dead
Best ghost story is the original "The Haunting" made in 1963 in b&w, which is based on The haunting of Hill House, but different.(Forget the awful remake with Kath Z-J).
There are a few jumps, but also high tension.
The best thing they did was not show the ghost, nor show any gore.
Irreversible..
The Cardiff Lift sounds really scary!

It was of its time and I believe Raimi and his cast / crew actually had to live in the cabin for the duration of filming . The demonic tree rape was of its time and got into problems ,still banned in some countries.
Filmed in super 8 ,the low down camera work running in the forest scenes were a first, hugely influenced others and the Coen brothers , don't think it was box office smash, I seem to remember it made its name as a pirate video as its was banned ,bit like Chainsaw Massacre ,you get them as pirate copies ,my kids loved it ??
Don't think I've watched one since Psycho. Don't appeal to me.
No takers yet for The Human Centipede then.....
Let The Right One In is a very good Scandi horror/vampire film.
I've tried three times to watch Suspiria, with the soundtrack by Goblin. I've never made it past 20 minutes, normally with a pounding headache.
