Three horror films you should see.......
The Haunting - the original 1963 version not the awful remake starring Catherine Zeta Jones. Its probably one of the best psychological horror films ever made, no ropey ghosts on display, no extras in blankets waving their arms about, no unconvincing gore on display. Just good acting and good use of music and noise/sounds to create suspense. You can always imagine something far worse than most horror films actually show you
Rec - 2007 -A spanish horror film, filmed in a documentary style, a film crew follow the night shift of their local fire service, when the fire crew are called to a tower block they realise that some of the residents have become infectedwith a parasite that turns then in raving cannibals. The tower block is sealed off but the film crew carry on filming..........A good horror with plenty of shocks, in spanish with subtitles but well worth seeking out.
WAZ - 2007 - A serial killer is cutting a path of destruction through a city he leaves an equation W(triangle)Z (look it up, its an equation that disproves the concept of human compassion) on each victim. It soon becomes clear what that the killer is offering his victims a choice, either kill your loved ones or be killed yourself. Good, moody British horror thriller, very gruesome in places with scenes of graphic torture but quite clever and different as well.
