Hey guys, this is my first post and was wondering if anyone else on here are fans of exploitation/extreme cinema? If so what are you're favorite films in the genre? Mine would have to be the August Underground series, Slaughtered Vomit Dolls, ReGOREgitated Sacrifice, Salo, Cannibal Holocaust, Cannibal Ferox, The Gateway Meat, and Cannibal, those are just some off of the top of my head.

What? Just because we listen to Metal that means we automatically watch movies with people being tortured?

THAT'S INSULTING! THAT'S A STEROTYPE!

Let me guess, bro. You think we all hang out in the forest while wearing corpsepaint too, don'tchya?

Cannibal Holocaust is pretty cool.

Gore does not equal horror. It is for this same reason that I do not like Cannibal Corpse lyrics.

Hongkong's CAT III is pretty gory and psychologically trilling. The Untold Story and Ebola Syndrome is a classic amongst the gore lovers.

Gore films don't make for good horror films. At least since to me anyways, there should be some fright or scares in a horror film. The films that showcase all the blood and guts overshadow the scares too much. It's the reason why I think The Exorcist is the best horror film of all time. Underground? Of course not but its a terrific example of a movie that puts the horror in horror movie.

I don't really find the gore ones overly disturbing, just not scary. It is to horror what Freddy Got Fingered is to comedy; pure gross-out value.

Besides, I've seen enough real-life gore images to know that most grindhouse gore flicks exaggerate it to the point of being stupid.

There's also a line between the ironic and voluntary exaggerated gore movies and the voluntary serious and too violent stuff. I prefer the first ones.

Ringu (1998) is a pretty good little horror film.

Ditto. Gory isn't really exciting either. I'd rather be scared shitless than grossed out.

Thats what The Shining does to me. Not particularly a scary movie.. but it scares the hell out of me. I can't goto the Estas Park Hotel anymore because of it. Being there twice was enough but jesus..

I've only seen Cannibal Holocaust and the movie Rob Zombie did. I prefer psychological thrillers(Silence of the Lambs, anyone?), but don't know much about gore flicks or where to get them.

Mezentus, The Shining owns. Read the book to if you can, but it's long.

I'm a big fan of the early movies Alan Ormsby and Ben Clark did together. Most especially CHILDREN SHOULDN'T PLAY WITH DEAD THINGS and DEATHDREAM (i.e. Dead Of Night).

As far as the more gore movies are concerned, I do like BLOODSUCKING FREAKS. That's a pretty good campy gore classic.

I'm not as big into exploitation and gore films as I used to be, still throw one in every once in awhile. I love the classics like tcm 74, halloween, friday the 13th, the burning, suspiria, which at first I did't like but have grown to like it a lot. I also love to watch 80's horror movies, the ones that are cheesy but because of that make them fun to watch.

I completely agree with you. They are classics.

Rabid Grannies WOULD kick ass if it wasn't cut to shit. I bought the Troma version with the cut material as an added bonus. They should've cleaned up that footage and edited it back into the movie. I love that movie anyway though.

Also I love gore and extreme horror. I like Ichi the Killer and Tetsuo: Iron Man for Jap horror. I also love all that Itallian stuff. Cannibal Ferrox aka Make them Die Slowly.

One of the last horror films I bought was the Herchal Gordan Lewis Collection. Fucking BADASS.

He wasn't implying that. Christ, don't take it so personally.

I myself am definitely a horror fan. My favorites would probably be The Burning and I Drink Your Blood. Oh, and Humanoids From the Deep aswell; it may sound cheesy, but its a total skeazy classic.

Too true. There are some parts in that film that are genuinely disturbing, and that give me chills when I watch it.

Watching Leatherface chop someone up with a chainsaw is cool too, but it's not scary.

I'm going with Halloween for best horror movie ever. People can say Exorcist, Psycho and Texas Chainsaw all they want, but this is the best. No other movie has inspired such fear in me, no other movie has captured its essence so well. All of the movies I mentioned are great and classic, but Halloween is perfect. Exorcist and Psycho were terrifying in their own respects, and TCM had this great, murky atmosphere about it, but Halloween brought the horror home to the suburbs and the small houses where we lived. When Laurie Strode runs across the street to get to the neighbors' house, it could be your street in any other time. The Shape/Michael Myers could be anywhere - the face of fear himself.

I agree with you, But Texas Chainsaw (ORIGINAL) just left me with the weirdest feeling of just being creeped out and slightly dirty. It's a feeling that is hard to describe, but you know what it is when it happens.

I would probably agree if I were to watch it again now. I didn't appreciate it last time I saw it.

Yes, except the turtle killing scene made me a little sick to my stomach. The part where they pull out the shell and the organs spill out like a smoothy.

I saw Dawn Of The Dead (original) for the first time yesterday and I see just why it's seen as a classic. Just a generally excellent film, with the directing being top notch, the characters well developed and a great build of suspense throughout the whole thing. The message about society and such was interesting too.

It's not an exceptionally gory movie though so to keep this post more on topic, i'd love to nominate Brain Dead. An utter classic early film from Peter Jackson who mixes black humour, buckets of gore and general sillyness to make a extremely memorable film.

And I also was let down by Cannibal Holocaust, it didn't live up to the hype for me. But i only saw it once and not for a few years so I should watch it again before I judge it.

The first time I saw Cannibal Holocaust, I thought it was pretty shocking but after I watched it a few times the shock factor wore off, Brain Dead is also a great film, one of the only horror/comedies I actually like to watch. Also if any hasn't already, check out the film Inside, it's a french movie that can be bought at Best Buy it's got great gore and also a pretty good storyline to go along with it, I think you can rent it at Blockbuster but I think it's cut.

I enjoyed a plate of spaghetti while watching that part.
