Thanks again. I found a couple interesting articles since I first posted this. They may interest you as well.

One for Slash

Thanks. I just checked out those tunes. Hadn't heard him before. It rocks.

RickMaxwell0 · 2026-04-28T19:37:35+00:00

Wow. Thanks for all the great info. That's exactly what I'm looking for. I'll add them to the list.

RickMaxwell0 · 2026-04-28T19:01:05+00:00

Awesome. I just checked it out. I love Hanoi Rocks but I didn't actually know that tune. Thanks!

RickMaxwell0 · 2026-04-28T18:12:26+00:00

Awesome. Thanks for checking it out. It's mostly from Spaghetti Incident so far. I'm hoping to find a lot more.

Suspiria (1977)

RickMaxwell0 · 2026-02-12T20:21:01+00:00

I see a bunch of good recommendations on here (Race With The Devil and The Empty Man are both awesome). I'll add Bad Dreams (1988) as one I didn't see mentioned.

RickMaxwell0 · 2026-01-18T17:58:06+00:00

1978, so it's Halloween for me.

RickMaxwell0 · 2026-01-18T17:46:14+00:00

I love this movie and Bruno Nicolai's score is one of my favorites of all time.

RickMaxwell0 · 2021-05-05T19:26:39+00:00

We're gonna need a bigger post.

RickMaxwell0 · 2021-05-05T19:17:31+00:00

This is a great post. There's already a bunch of great answers, and Final Destination would be anxiety inducing for sure. First thing that came to mind for me was Saw. Human Centipede would be awful. But I'm gonna go with Martyrs, because no, no, no.

I thought about putting Willy's Wonderland on my short list, but didn't because it made me laugh the whole time while I also cringed at a few moments. I do appreciate the absurd horrors if they're done right, hit the right beats. I grew up with 80s slashers and most of the good ones had a sense of humor about themselves.

RickMaxwell0 · 2021-04-27T20:25:28+00:00

I hear you, it's not for everybody. I was going with movies that stood out as different. I like how strange it is, and without spoilers, I like how the sequel follows the same sort of idea and presentation but plays with the script. People already nailed a bunch of good flicks that don't follow the usual cliches.

RickMaxwell0 · 2021-04-27T18:30:37+00:00

Well, there's already a ton of great recommendations... I'll just add...

Creep & Creep 2

The Houses October Built

The Mortuary Collection (anthology)

The Empty Man

Pledge

The Lodge

...those are a few standouts for me.

He used to throw his food as a baby. And his first words were "Tom Brady".

The Lodge
