  For some golden oldies you really need to find some of these;

  Bloodsucking Freaks
  Blood Feast
  The Love Butcher

  Newer ones are a dime a dozen. I always like "Blood Hook" about the crazy fisherman heh heh

  Also have a look at Frankenhooker - very funny -

  Cheers

    Thank you very much...everyone. I will start looking for these titles this week. I'm contemplating "Nightmare on Elm Street", this coming week...just based on reviews I've read.

    I picked up "Opera", "Tenebre" & "Deep Red" double DVD, the Elite release of "Night of the Living Dead", "The Evil Dead"...the Elite release...and "Army of Darkness...the Bootleg Director's Cut", and "The Vanishing" already this week and they are in the pile! Pretty tame stuff, I'm sure.

    As you can see I'm eager to get into Argento...to some degree.

      I love Deep Red. Tenebrae is good too, but IMO 1 step down from DR.
      Find Argento's Phenomena (AKA Creepers) as well - it stars Jennifer Connelly when she was about 15 yo.
      Don't watch too many at once :~)

      Cheers

        If you are keen on "sub-culture" film stuff, especially early horror, splatter, exploitation etc etc, you need this book. It has been a great resouce for me.

  I'm really tired of splatter, but Evil Dead I and II are great!

  Used to like Peter Jacksson's movies; Braindead and Bad Taste.
  A lot of zombiemovies are cute. I like Night Of The Living Dead (the original), Dawn Of The Dead and Zombi a.k.a. Zombie Flesheaters (I think).

  I'll suggest Dawn of the Dead. Plenty of Savini gore as well as a very funny take on mall culture. I also like Return of the Living Dead. Aside from zombie flicks have a look at Driller Killer and Ms..45, both by Abel Ferrara. Maniac's one of my favorites and until the DVD I hadn't seen it in years. Always liked Joe Spinell who died in '89.
