The Dark Knight is going on July 18th. And is said to be qutie promising.

I just watched The Signal last night. I thought that was a decent horror flick. Though it is about a year old or so.

Lets see:
Saw - thought it was a interesting concept, but I noticed a few plot holes here and there which made it much less likable. it also had the stupid victim syndrome
Saw 2 - fucking terrible, I'm not bothering with the rest of them.
The Hills have eyes (the remake) - I liked this one, namely because the 'victims' weren't completely moronic.
The Hills have Eyes 2 (the sequel to the remake) - Fucking terrible. they were army trainees with GUNS and they were slaughtered, even so it felt less crazy brutal.
Silent Hill - I didn't finish it, while it wasn't a terrible horror movie, they changed to many things from the game and I ended up not liking it due to this.
Resident evil movies - first one was mediocre, the second and third completely abandoned the horror element for mindless yet dull action.
The grudge (American version) - I never saw the Japanese one, this one was mediocre to me. the only thing that was even remotely creepy was the weird mouth noise and with my dad making fun of it while I was watching it, it became a lot less scary and a lot more funny.
Dawn of the Dead (remake) - One of my favorites. though I admit I have not seen the original.

No, the ending was pretty cool I thought apart from that woman showing up which I didn't even notice when I watched it but is gay if she's there. If I remember rightly though you had a whole different take on the movie than most normal people (the religious zealots were right????????) so fair enough

yeah the ending to that movie was WAY to fucking pessimistic for my tastes. I mean I can take a certain degree of pessimistic, but that was just to much. other then the ending, yeah, I liked it to.

Saw 2 - fucking terrible, I'm not bothering with the rest of them.

Saw 2 is my favorite one. I think all of the Saws are good, but so far, the weakest to me would probably be 3. It was way too heavy on the gore and I hated Jeff.

Saw 4 had the lamest ending, but other than that I enjoyed it more than 3.

One genuinely unnerving horror movie is Cure by Kiyoshi Kurosawa (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0123948/).

You can read about it on imdb. It's a really, really good serial killer film, involving a detective trying to find the connections between unrelated murders performed by unrelated people, only connected by the carving of an X on the victim. Very creepy and hypnotic. The director is most famous for his film Pulse, which was remade in the US a little while ago. I've been a big fan of his work and I think he's a lesser known modern auteur. Most of his movies are good horror films but this one I think is my favourite. His films always have this great tension which he builds and builds but never release with a shock scare. It's really exciting.

Another that comes to mind: Don't Look Now (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069995/).

This film also has a very creepy mood to it. It is set in Italy and is about this couple who happen to keep catching glimpses of what looks like their dead child around the canals. The only other film I've seen by the director, Nicolas Roeg, is Bad Timing (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080408/) with Art Garfunkel, which is a pretty good drama, but completely unrelated to Don't Look Now. Both films are really worth checking out, though. I'm just mentioning it because he hasn't made anything horror-ish since.

The third and forth recommendations might are both by the same director, Peter Weir: Picnic at Hanging Rock (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0073540/), and The Last Wave (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0076299/).

Both films feel very similar to each other. Picnic at Hanging Rock is set in the 1900s and is about a group of schoolgirls who dis sapear into a rock formation during a school trip and fail to return. The film follows the townspeople as they try and find the girls. Really creepy and eerie.

The Last Wave is about a lawyer who takes on the job of defending some aboriginals in a murder case. He begins to have premonitions of a world disaster in his dreams, which he finds are connected to the tribal aboriginals and their concept of dreamtime. It's a very surreal films where time loops onto itself and they tension of probable disaster is really scary.

Also I want to note that these films might not fit everyones idea of horror, there's not a lot of blood and guts or zombies or monsters. Their much more psychological so they might not be for everyones taste. But I don't know, I liked them so maybe someone else will also.

I saw this like 7-8 years ago, wasn't it made in like 75? I spose there hasn't been many 'good new horror' posts though so far enough.

Yeah I kind of just ignored the top post in the "recent" aspect...

Whatever. :/

Has anyone heard about that Mirrors movie?

It sounds kinda crappy, but there's an Amy Smart scene that has the internets buzzing.
