Would you consider found footage to be new ground in horror? I know it has existed before the modern age, but it’s landmark films such as Blair Witch and Paranormal Activity are recent. Seems like these are popping up more frequently now, either as entire films or just segments, like in Sinister.

See that’s the problem i always have with The Shining. You said “Over the course of the movie he goes slowly insane” and that’s just not the fact at all. We all want to love this movie, and we say that to ourselves, but Nicholson is making creepy faces and speaking in a sarcastic tone since they drive to the hotel. He is just a plain normal dude in the interview, and that always ruins part of a real good movie for me.

Great list and reviews. Totally agree, not much newer horror that impresses me much either. Although you could start a short list so far with movies like Hatchet and maybe Ginger Snaps or It Follows, which you reviewed in an earlier Monster Madness, maybe Frozen with Kane Hodder, maybe Saw. You could have a top 5 right there so far.

The Thing not in the top 10 :O I’m really surprised. Only a honourable mention? It’s easily in my top 5 films ever!

In reply to Cain Nuke.

And Vivi, you say they are slow paced? Really? This also shows your age. You were probably born in the late 80s or 90s I’m guessing.
Movies are just now, in the last 10-15 years, beginning to come around to the return of the slow burn. Movies such as House of the Devil, The Innkeepers, Resolution, A Tale of Two Sisters, and even The Blair Witch(1996), to just name some off the top of my head.

It really has NOTHING at all to do with whether you like those 30’s horror movies. They are still called the Golden Age, period. It’s not an opinion. Same with comics, they have ages as well, that are universal.

In reply to Cain Nuke. Your comment only shows your age. If you were older than you would understand that just becuase YOU consider it the Golden Age, it isn't considered that by ANYONE else. Most horror fans, and really not just horror fans but fan of true cinema, will always consider the 30s the Golden Age of cinema as a whole.

In reply to Stephen Grubb. I agree with all of these, but I think the point of Monster Madness was to educate people on older, lesser known movies -- especially for younger people who may not have seen the older classics. All the ones you mentioned are modern classics that most people are already aware of. Just my opinion.
