What a load of old toss. Can't think of the last time I saw a genuinely chilling 'horror' film. Probably one of the Japanese ones - 'Ring' et al

Jeepers Creepers is shite. It was fine until you saw the bad guy, thus realising he was the bastard son of Satan and Big Bird.
And if the teens had spent as much time running as they did staring at the fucking thing, they could have got to a different state. Somewhere like France for example.
The last genuinely chilling horror film I saw was Wolf Creek.

No one has been killed yet. And is it just me or there a rip off element of the classic 'Duel' in this?

Jeepers Creepers 2 is a bit better probably. But yeah there are much better horror movies around, like The Grinch, the monkey in that scared the shit out of me. ;D

JC took itself to oseriously when it was just shite. (JC2 is shite as well though, just for the record)

I've seen JC2 at the cinema and this is the first time I've seen the original. It's safe to say the sequel is a lot better. The Grinch? ;D

The only genuinely disturbing and scary horror from the last decade is 'Switchblade Romance'. 'The Descent' is pretty good, but pales in comparison, never felt comfortable watching it from start to finish. If you haven't seen it, get hold of a copy at all costs

I enjoyed switchblade romance, though I wouldnt describe it as unsettling. The Descent is superb, and plays on peoples fears (particularly in the vertigo enducing scene) although it got a bit silly towards the end (superb final scene though).
I'm going to have to stick with Wolf Creek though. Anyone else seen it?

The only problem with 'The Descent' is that I thought it lost a lot of its power when the creatures were revealed, they just weren't scary. Sometimes, less is more.

'Switchblade Romance' 'The Descent' and 'Wolf Creek' I'll have to get round to watching those some time. What do you reckon is the best out of the three?

I'll agree with you there on the gollums, they were silly. The Saw movies were good too. The first was genuinely chilling with a superb ending. The second was a little silly but still enjoyable. The third should be coming out sometime next year, I'm looking forward to that.

Think its out (in the US), this Halloween. I'll agree with you there on the gollums, they were silly. The Saw movies were good too. The first was genuinely chilling with a superb ending.

Switchblade Romance is probably the greatest slasher movie since Halloween, The Descent is very creepy and claustrophobic, Wolf Creek is one of those 'kids pull up at a weird house (well shack) in the middle of nowhere, and happen to stumble upon a psychopath' type films. All very worth watching, depends on your tastes. PS. Switchblade Romance is a French film, though don't let the subtitles put you off, there's barely any dialogue in it.

Wolf Creek has got a pretty bad IMDb rating.
