Best, horror movies of all time that never get mentioned.

When it comes to scary movies, top 10 or even top 50 lists, this movie never gets mentioned.
It's kind of like a '28 days later' meets 'day of the dead', meets red necks flick, but it does the trick.

I would have to throw it in the zombie genre, and it does the trick.

It's a good, well written, slightly low budget, yet effective horror movie.

And has the feeling of a future 'cult classic' type of movie.

But yet it never gets mention on top scary movie lists, accept here, in the Twylight Zone.
Cause here, things are evaluated differently, and fairly.

And this movie here, 'The Crazies' is definitely worth watching if you like horror and surprises.

The characters in the movie are like your neighbors, people you were raised with.

Good convincing actors/actresses, are always the key to a movie.

Good performers can even make an other wise low budget dud, come to life and seem very realistic.

I definitely give this horror classic a thumbs up and toss it in the 'best horror movies of all times that never get mentioned' bin...

A rare mention of newer horror movie actually kind of done right.

Not a bad movie at all, for those into classical horror.

Resident Evil...the very first one in series.

This movie was done right, based on video game, yet still done right.

It contains everything a classic horror/scary movie contains, and falls kind of in the zombie genre...

It's just done right, right background music, right characters you actually care about, right tempo.

But yet never gets mentioned in top scariest movie lists.

(Also movies with duel unrelated threats I like, just adds to the mystery of horror)

Autopsy



This movie came out in 2008, yet gets very little fan fare or mention ever.
I wouldn't say it's amongst the best scary movies ever, but does deserve mention.

In fact I'd have to categorize in more in the slasher category.

I discovered it after purchasing one of the horror movie bundles you get in the Walmart $5.00 movie bins.

It's actually not a bad movie, and has interesting characters you can half way relate to.

I find it entertaining on many levels and have watched it several times.

It sort of at first has that 'B' movie feel to it, but as movie moves along, there are some interesting twists.

And if watching alone at home on dark night with surround sound stereo, you might find yourself jumping at a few scenes, or turning away, not just from gore, but from some truly spooky images, or 'gotcha' type of scenes.

Not one of the best horror movies ever, but maybe one of the best or under rated non franchise slasher movie.
Sadly unless movies like this franchise their production, meaning have sequels, than they're usually forgotten about fairly quickly.

This list of best horror movies of all time that never get mentioned on lists, would definitely not be complete without 'Cube 2 : Hypercube

It's an intelligent horror thriller, that I doubt producers would have the patience to fund today, as all in Hollywood seem to think all viewers are dumb now when it comes to good horror cinema.

Movies like this you won't really see anymore in this era, in that they required you to think a bit, and actually used seasoned actors and actresses, instead of models with no acting skills at all.

As such the movie has a very realistic effect, as if could happen to any common person.

In short the premise is basically a bunch of people caught up inside a gigantic rubics cube.

I have it in my collection and enjoy watching it from time to time.
Sadly you rarely, if ever, see this movie mentioned in top horror movies of all times, but here in the Zone it gets that mention.

Castaways stuck in a cube instead of on Gilligand's Island.

Apollo 18



I found this movie about supposed lost mission to the moon, to be kind of creepy.

Kind of done in the Paranormal Activity bio manner.

This movie, if watched alone, at night, and with decent speakers, will give make you squirm a bit.

Some thought it was Korney, but I liked it and is why I'm adding it to this collection of good to decent horror movies that never seem to make lists..

Deliverance



I know the movie 'Deliverance' may seem like a odd fit in this section of 'Best horror movies of all times that never get mentioned', but to me it's not.

It's a freaky movie, even today, starring Burt Renold's when he was at his prime, and actually the movie that gave him a big boost.

If haven't seen, worth watching, and if haven't seen in a long time, worth watching again.

It's creepy, but in very realistic way, one of the best movies ever of any genre, but often over looked today in lists.

There's still people like this who exist, they haven't gone extinct, some may even be in your family, or you may be one.

None the less insiders meeting outsiders sums up this dark movie.



Added note:

I can easily see this movie spawning ideas for

1. Friday the 13th

2. The Hills have eyes

Both of which came years later.
