A classic film - 3.75 out of 5 (4/18/2000)
Sometimes, Older is better!
I watch a film like "House on Haunted Hill" and I see what the director's have to do to get a good scare out of the audience. They have to work too hard to get the same scares that came so easily in the olden days. On the other hand, those old films really had some things going for them and they earned their stripes.
If you look on any top 100 list, you will notice two horror films that regularly rank there. "Night of the Living dead" and tonight's to

This is one of the best horror films of all time! - 4 out of 5 (11/10/2003)

If you like unspecting horror films or horror films at all for

MMM Good BBQ! - 4.25 out of 5 (6/26/2002)
If you dig horror movies, this is a classic! This flick features the best female in distress role ever. In no other horror flick will you see and hear such honest screams of terror than in SAW. Some films come close, but Tobe Hoopers amateur shot at a scary movie tops them all. The low grade film and sound make it all the more creepy and where did he get all of those great psycho actors to play the family? The Texas state mental institute? Joe Bob Briggs, the Texas horror film master, wrot
