Peter Cushing lived a town over from me when he was alive. We have a pub named after him and also Cushing View which is a bench he used to paint on. My friends mum has a book she got him to sign when she met him, what a legend.
Man, I needed this. Monster Madness was a tradition for me every year as a kid. Getting up every day of October, watching the new MM before school. Building excitement for Halloween. With so much of what makes this time of year great being gone this year, I really appreciate this.
I know what you mean. In one of the channels I follow I was wondering why the guy was uploading so many spooky games videos (I had not seen the videos and they were just piling up) and then I realized it's because it's October. Nowadays that you can't tell one day from the other I didn't even realized October had come since there was no Monster Madness.
The way you say King Kong has horror elements, I always felt the same way with Jurassic Park. I feel like few people call it horror, but dinosaurs eating people terrified me as a kid.
_Jurassic Park_ is in what I'd call the "family horror" genre, like _Poltergeist._ Yes, it has horrific scenes, but there's an overall lack of overt blood & gore in the deaths that sanitizes them for family viewing. That, and the fact that the children in the original, while terrorized at times, come out unscathed at the end.
I just rewatched that earlier this week, seen it a dozen times and finally started picking up some of the Godzilla movies. Can't wait to finally check them out :)
@@Jman37X Be careful. If you enjoy them, it can be addictive. I finally the end of last year was able to finish the collection. I have the whole collection across like three or 4 different media outlets. DVD, movies anywhere, vudu, amazon. Its got the same issue as say the Halloween series, or the hammer films. Lots of different distribution companies and for a long while they were area locked.
Ok, here goes my list: -1920s: Caligari. -1930: Mad Love -1940: I walked with a zombie (can't believe they've never brought that up) -1950: Night of the demon -1960: Rosemary's Baby -1970: Dawn of the dead -1980: Hellraiser (honourable mention: The company of wolves. Really underrated) -1990: In the mouth of darkness -2000: The Devil's Backbone -2010: The Witch
I always liked James but after he picked Evil Dead 2 during the 80s segment, he's reached an all time high for me! The Evil Dead Series is my favorite from the horror genre and I actually met Bruce Campbell at one of his book signings in 2005. He was a really nice guy and his autobiography is great!
Got you beat, he's a distant relative of mine through his mother, I have a lot of family that is around the area of Michigan that he came from and his mom has the right last name, so I'm almost positive that we're some kind of relation
You know what? The fact that Monster Madness is back for another year and plans of maybe bringing it back to what it was next year just made my day. Thanks fellas, I really needed this today, much love
I havent watched all the way thru yet but the 60s has got to be Night Of The Living Dead. I mean its groundbreaking. Social commentary masked in horror. Not to mention the gore effects at the time and the fact that the movie changed the way zombies were portrayed till this day. Edit: great choice James! ☺
Notld showed filmmakers that you can do it with a small team, limited resources, ingenuity and alot of passion for your craft. Romero and the crew was all hands on in front of the cam and behind the scenes.
imo: 1910's - The Golem 1920's - Nosferatu 1930's - King Kong 1940's - The Wolf Man 1950's - Hmm, I wanna put Godzilla but War of the Worlds is also one of my all-time favorites. 1960's - Night of the Living Dead. 1970's - Alien 1980's - Hmm, another tough one. I'm thinking Evil Dead 2 or John Carpenter's the Thing. 1990's - Misery 2000's - ................................... Ya know, Freddy vs Jason. 2010's - Shin Godzilla
Anyone else feel like James and Mike do such an incredible job of making you feel like you're sitting on a chair in that room having this discussion with them? I feel like when they start laughing and reminiscing about certain parts in films, that I do the same and start talking like I'm physically there with them. Happy Halloween gents!!
My picks: 20's: Nosferatu 30's: King Kong 40's: The Wolf Man 50's: Godzilla 60's: Psycho 70's: Texas Chainsaw Massacre 80's: Nightmare on Elm Street 90's: Scream 00's: Saw 10's: The Conjuring
My 10's pick is probably going to be Sinister, those 8MM tapes with that great music work just hit me like nothing else did in other horror movies from the last decade.
Nice list. For me, the 10s is The Guest. I don't know if not a lot of people have seen it or they just don't like it, but no one seems to talk about it.
Over the many years of watching Cinemassacre/AVGN there was a point in time where Mikes screen vocal presence started to increase and I remember thinking - without sounding harsh - that this really wasn't something I wanted to see on this channel. But years later when Mike left and I started seeing new people appear on this channel being even more vocal, I regretted wishing this. I'm not gonna lie, I'm not really invested with many of the new crew. I miss Mike. More than I ever thought I would.
Jame’s & Mike’s picks respectively: The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari (1920) Nosferatu (1922) Son of Frankenstein (1939) Dracula (1931) Frankenstein Meets the Wolf Man (1943) The House of Frankenstein (1944) Godzilla (1954) Horror of Dracula (1958) Night of the Living Dead (1968) House of Usher (1960) Jaws (1975) Alien (1979) Evil Dead II (1987) The Shining (1980) From Dusk till Dawn (1996) Dead Alive (1992) Trick 'r Treat (2007) Orphan (2009) Hereditary (2018) Don't Breathe (2016)
A 80s horror film that gets overlooked a lot is "Night Of The Demons". Kinda low budget but I really loved the movie and it's iconic deeped voiced demons. The movie had a few sequels but I haven't seen them. If you've never heard of it then it's worth a watch
I just rewatched Trick r' Treat yesterday and said it's a shame how underrated that movie is in terms of both horror and Halloween films. Cool to see it get a shoutout from James the very next day
@@Superb_0wl I know I saw Tales of Halloween when it came out but I don't remember anything about it. I vaguely recall not liking it at the time but I'll revisit it and see if I've changed my mind since
Moose the Mountaineer sorry i mean I prefer Tales & Halloween III over TrT I absolutely luv Halloween III despite no Michael Myers just pretend it’s unrelated works just fine
For me: 20s - Nosferatu 30s - Bride of Frankenstein 40s - Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man 50s - The Curse of Frankenstein 60s - Night of the Living Dead 70s - The Exorcist 80s - The Thing 90s - Ringu 00s - The Host 10s - The Witch
i'm not sure how these ''movie experts'' feel about it, but when I think of 2000s horror movies I always think of movies like The Ring, Paranormal Activity, Saw, things like that... they should be mentioned
To this day I still feel that 70s horror is my favorite, mostly because the horror movies during that time are a bit more experimental and varied, its really hard for me to categorize all of them into one area as they all have different styles and tones that make them unique from each other. They can range from movies that have a dream-like quality to them with their music and atmosphere such as Suspiria and the 70s remake of Nosferatu or they can focus on a lower budget to give it its own creepy flair. Movies such as Halloween, Texas Chainsaw, Alice Sweet Alice, and Tourist Trap have this interesting "grimy" feel to them that can be only be done with that style of filmmaking. And that is the beauty of that era of horror, while the 60s are more associated with "Sci-fi B-movie" and the 80s are more focused on gore heavy slashers, the 70s on the other hand was a time in which there was really no set formula in making a horror movie, so as a result you see different directors show their own unique twist to the genre.
Ivan S. You are right, mainly with the Hammer films. Sorry, whenever I think of the 60s mostly sci fi films and even kaiju films for some reason even though it was much more common in the 50s.
I get how the 80s is slasher heavy, but it is the monster movies from the 80s that really did it for me. It was the peak, yet seemingly the end, of creature effects whether it be makeup, prosthetics, puppetry, etc. The 70s were a great lead up to that as well. Those are definitely my two favorite decades of horror.
There were some surprising misses from other decades too: 1930s: The Old Dark House 1950s: Revenge Of Frankenstein 1980s: The Fog, Videodrome, Near Dark, Angel Heart 2000s: White Noise
I'd say it's more to do with today's current state of horror being the same since the 2000s. Nothing has strayed too far and become its own standout decade like pre 2000s decades have.
Mike please read this, in the film Goodnight Mommy the mother seems different, distant, and doesn't even acknowledge one of the brothers because in the very beginning of the film we see one of the twin brothers drowns when they're out exploring and go for a swim. She's dealing with the loss of a son, trying to keep life going, cheer herself up by getting some plastic surgery done but her son is plagued by either the ghost or a hallucinations of his dead brother who leads him to believe she's an imposter and after they all die in the fire at the end, you can see their spirits walking out into the fields.
Most of those movies are worth a watch at least once. Thats for sure, the top ones even more. The editing thing btw is so true. When i make a video of something, i often learn many tiny details about the games that i play. I guess the same goes for movies. Because you often have to rewatch the same thing over and over again, and eventually you notice something new about it. Its kind of like watching a movie for the second time.
The coolest memory I have of From Dusk til Dawn is that we rented the movie on a whim, and so we had no idea what it was about. Imagine when you think it's about a couple of bungling criminals before it U-turns into horror absurdity. The vampire angle was a complete surprise.
I went into From Dusk til Dawn the same way... not knowing what to expect. Our heads spun around when it turned into a batshit vampire flick. heh Was honestly a great way of going into that movie... if only everyone could have that experience watching it.
Totally with James on Hereditary. Its frustrating to try and convey to other people who weren't really affected by it for whatever reason but that movie shook me.
My picks: 1920s: Nosferatu 1930s: The Mummy 1940s: Frankenstein meets the Wolfman 1950s: 1960s: Rosemary's Baby 1970s: Nosferatu the Vampyre or Eraserhead 1980s: The Thing 1990s: Se7en or Alien 3 2000: Let the Right One In 2010s: Hereditary or The Lighthouse
James: We are starting farther back than most do, we are gonna start in the 20s. Me: but the 20s just started. Video: 1920s Me: oh right, that 20s forgot about that one.
@@starwarsunfiltered7848 it is, when it’s older than most of James’ audience. Edit: 52 is 86.67% of 60. I would say anything more than 85% is “almost”.
House on Haunted Hill isn't just my favorite Horror movie from the 50's, it's one of my favorite movies of all time. I wish it would receive more love. I never hear anybody really talk about it. When I mention that it's my favorite, people think the horrible remake.
@@SiGhast Either way, the point is the point. Everyone knows what he's talking about, but some people just can't help themselves from being "well-actually-er's"
@@SiGhast it's really the point James was making, that the technical name doesn't matter as much as the name everyone knows it by. In this case I think it was the Movie 'Brain Dead'
@@westerling8436 oh, maybe youre right. in fact yes, you are right, congratulations. I wasnt sure, thank you for making me rethink my own opinion. I wasnt sure of my own opinion on the 40s. I would not have chose that film. Thanks again. Did my opinion offend you snowflake? Feel better now? What does your useless comment even mean?
@@runningsuperska oh, so he is one of those guys who gets upset by grammar errors on youtube and has to point them out to feel some sort of self worth. im just posting my opinion on youtube, not trying to sit an exam or learn literature here. but thanks for clearing that up.
Please please review the "Trailer Park Boy's" There is a tv show and multiple movies!! Love to see it as a "East Coast Maritime'er/Canadian eh! and also a fan of you guys!
Not that anybody cares but here are my picks: 1920s: Phantom Of The Opera 1930s: Freaks 1940s: The Wolf Man 1950s: Godzilla 1960s: Rosemary’s Baby 1970s: Alien 1980s: The Thing 1990s: Misery 2000s: Saw 2010s: Get Out
I always thought the second one was the strongest in the series, even though I have the image of Uncle Frank's face being torn apart tattooed on my upper back.
My all-time favorite horror film is Phantom of the Opera from 1925. Been my favorite since I was 9. Love it! Also, kinda shocked you guys didn't even mention The Conjuring in the 2010s. It's a lot better than some of the ones you did mention.
My list would look like this: 20th: Nosferatu 30th: Frankenstein 40th: I Walked With a Zombie 50th: The Blob 60th: The Haunting 70th: The Dunwich Horror 80th: Evil Dead II 90th: In The Mouth Of Madness 2000: The Mist 10er: The Void

The way you say King Kong has horror elements, I always felt the same way with Jurassic Park. I feel like few people call it horror, but dinosaurs eating people terrified me as a kid.
Jurassic park is a horror movie disguised as a family adventure film.
I watched it all the time as a kid no problem but now it just gives me anxiety lol
The Steven Spielberg whimsical nature is why a movie about people being hunted down by dangerous predators feels like a family film.
_Jurassic Park_ is in what I'd call the "family horror" genre, like _Poltergeist._ Yes, it has horrific scenes, but there's an overall lack of overt blood & gore in the deaths that sanitizes them for family viewing. That, and the fact that the children in the original, while terrorized at times, come out unscathed at the end.
Galantski a movie doesn’t need to have blood and gore to be scary. Poltergeist is a scary movie with creepy visuals.
Sleepaway camp still has the scariest image ever on film, I saw that at five years old and I still get creeped out thinking of that final scene.
Idk, there's real beheadings, killings, rapes I'm sure in film somewhere, do idk about that.

LOL, what a strange combo! Yet two of my favorite characters of the 90's
You know is it just me or has James never done a Scooby-Doo Related Episode for the nerd? Or heck any video related to Scooby-Doo?!
I could have sworn the was a scooby doo nerd episode.
Even LOTR it would be awesome to see AVGN do it.
I'd like to hear their reaction to Scooby Doo Mystery Incorporated (2010-2013). That was a very odd and ambitious incarnation of the show.
@@4h0w1e6 honestly that version of scooby had a more serious tone than the other versions

How was Cabin in the Woods not discussed! Thought it would have been right up your alley as a throwback to more classic horror.
The whole movie is a send up to the classics. A missed opportunity. Hopefully its in the works.
It was probably just an oversight on their part. Man, it's such a cool callback to classic horror. I'd love to hear them talk about it.

Hey wait, that image for ALIEN is from ALIENS. From when Ferro gets waxed in the cockpit of the dropship.
I wonder if they've seen The Witch or The Lighthouse yet.
Or midsommar
The Witch is a disturbing, not scary movie. The Lighthouse is a disgusting, and bad movie, imo.
I was about to post this exact comment! No mention of these great Robert Eggers' films.
The are much more mainstream and those movies border on arthouse so it's not really their thing.
The Witch is great, the lighthouse is okay. You will either love it or not. It’s not scary though, I’ll say that.
imo:
1910's - The Golem
1920's - Nosferatu
1930's - King Kong
1940's - The Wolf Man
1950's - Hmm, I wanna put Godzilla but War of the Worlds is also one of my all-time favorites.
1960's - Night of the Living Dead.
1970's - Alien
1980's - Hmm, another tough one. I'm thinking Evil Dead 2 or John Carpenter's the Thing.
1990's - Misery
2000's - ................................... Ya know, Freddy vs Jason.
2010's - Shin Godzilla
The Thing is my favorite horror movie
I don't know if Shin Godzilla is horror, I think it's more suspense. But it's a great movie
Shin Godzilla was awesome but not horror imo
To me, movies are like food.... favorites change all the time.

I just rewatched Trick r' Treat yesterday and said it's a shame how underrated that movie is in terms of both horror and Halloween films. Cool to see it get a shoutout from James the very next day
It's a mandatory Halloween season flick for me. This, and Halloween 3. Together, they fully capture the feel of the season for me.
Personally i prefer Tales of Halloween (2015) over Trick r’ Treat & Halloween III definitely
@@Superb_0wl I know I saw Tales of Halloween when it came out but I don't remember anything about it. I vaguely recall not liking it at the time but I'll revisit it and see if I've changed my mind since
@@andydontgo More of an original Halloween guy myself but I'm a fan of the whole series 👍
Moose the Mountaineer sorry i mean I prefer Tales & Halloween III over TrT I absolutely luv Halloween III despite no Michael Myers just pretend it’s unrelated works just fine
For me:
20s - Nosferatu
30s - Bride of Frankenstein
40s - Frankenstein Meets The Wolf Man
50s - The Curse of Frankenstein
60s - Night of the Living Dead
70s - The Exorcist
80s - The Thing
90s - Ringu
00s - The Host
10s - The Witch
30s is so difficult. It's either The Old Dark House or Bride of Frankenstein for me, but the original Frankenstein has such strong old charm as well.
What about Dracula or Vampyr?
@@sandorenckell5259 Dracula is excellent too, I just like these others better. Dracula's pacing could be a bit quicker for me.
@@sandorenckell5259 Vampyr is a masterpiece 👍
All those movies have the same director...
Don’t breathe would also be my pick for 2010s. Well between that and Terrifier, thought for sure I’d see that one in the list
The 2000's should've had 28 Days Later.
Yes absolutely, I really thought The Mist was great too.
28 days should have been one of the better zombie movies
2010s should have had train to busan (tho the list was really 'western'-centric so not surprising)
Sin City
i'm not sure how these ''movie experts'' feel about it, but when I think of 2000s horror movies I always think of movies like The Ring, Paranormal Activity, Saw, things like that... they should be mentioned
Best 80's movie period!!
John Carpenters - The Thing
To this day I still feel that 70s horror is my favorite, mostly because the horror movies during that time are a bit more experimental and varied, its really hard for me to categorize all of them into one area as they all have different styles and tones that make them unique from each other. They can range from movies that have a dream-like quality to them with their music and atmosphere such as Suspiria and the 70s remake of Nosferatu or they can focus on a lower budget to give it its own creepy flair. Movies such as Halloween, Texas Chainsaw, Alice Sweet Alice, and Tourist Trap have this interesting "grimy" feel to them that can be only be done with that style of filmmaking.
And that is the beauty of that era of horror, while the 60s are more associated with "Sci-fi B-movie" and the 80s are more focused on gore heavy slashers, the 70s on the other hand was a time in which there was really no set formula in making a horror movie, so as a result you see different directors show their own unique twist to the genre.
The 70's was just one of the great decades of film-making, no doubt.
70s and 80s hard to pick got too commercial afterwards
Well actually the 50s are associated with "Sci-fi B-movie" The 60s were mostly about gothic horror
Ivan S. You are right, mainly with the Hammer films. Sorry, whenever I think of the 60s mostly sci fi films and even kaiju films for some reason even though it was much more common in the 50s.
I get how the 80s is slasher heavy, but it is the monster movies from the 80s that really did it for me. It was the peak, yet seemingly the end, of creature effects whether it be makeup, prosthetics, puppetry, etc. The 70s were a great lead up to that as well. Those are definitely my two favorite decades of horror.
From the 1980s check out the film "The Gate" and from the 1970s "Squirm"
The Gate is one of my favs. I used to wear that tape out when I was little.
There were some surprising misses from other decades too:
1930s: The Old Dark House
1950s: Revenge Of Frankenstein
1980s: The Fog, Videodrome, Near Dark, Angel Heart
2000s: White Noise
If anyone wants to watch Braindead/Dead Alive:
Watch the Australian Unrated
The US Unrated has alot of scenes cut, which include gore
That's wierd, Australia is usually the ban happy type. Thanks for the tip
oh word, thank you, i was just mentally noting that i need to see this
Why on earth wouldn't you seperate the 2000s and the 2010s?! They're just as much seperate decades as all the other ones.
I'd say it's more to do with today's current state of horror being the same since the 2000s. Nothing has strayed too far and become its own standout decade like pre 2000s decades have.
@@blank-yg5hx 2000's found footage horror trend is the same as 2010's A24 movies?
Happy Halloween everyone!
I definitely was expect Cube to be on the list of the 90s. One of my all time favorite films
I find their choice of costumes funny, since Sub Zero has an outfit pretty similar to Shredder’s
Jacob's Ladder, hands down my fav from the 90s
Mike please read this, in the film Goodnight Mommy the mother seems different, distant, and doesn't even acknowledge one of the brothers because in the very beginning of the film we see one of the twin brothers drowns when they're out exploring and go for a swim. She's dealing with the loss of a son, trying to keep life going, cheer herself up by getting some plastic surgery done but her son is plagued by either the ghost or a hallucinations of his dead brother who leads him to believe she's an imposter and after they all die in the fire at the end, you can see their spirits walking out into the fields.
Most of those movies are worth a watch at least once. Thats for sure, the top ones even more.
The editing thing btw is so true. When i make a video of something, i often learn many tiny details about the games that i play. I guess the same goes for movies. Because you often have to rewatch the same thing over and over again, and eventually you notice something new about it. Its kind of like watching a movie for the second time.
James is dressed up as Sub-Zero. Sub-Zero the best!
I thought it was Harry Potter!
I thought it was LEEEEEEERROOOY JEEEEENKKINNNS!!!
Well Arnold "Running Man" Schwarzenegger just made him plain zero
The coolest memory I have of From Dusk til Dawn is that we rented the movie on a whim, and so we had no idea what it was about. Imagine when you think it's about a couple of bungling criminals before it U-turns into horror absurdity. The vampire angle was a complete surprise.
I went into From Dusk til Dawn the same way... not knowing what to expect. Our heads spun around when it turned into a batshit vampire flick. heh Was honestly a great way of going into that movie... if only everyone could have that experience watching it.
I also went in blind. I think almost all movies benefit from going in blind, but I don't know of one that does so more than this.
I had a similar experience except with the worlds end
23:30 these dad jokes are chillingly authentic
Ice cold
Course it’s authentic James Rolf is a stone cold daddy (and by that I mean, he actually is a dad to 3-5 year old girl).
@@Popcultureguy3000 I think he has 2 children?
Safersephiroth777 Are they both girls or is one a boy?
@@Popcultureguy3000 Not sure. Maybe I am mistaken.
This is my favorite time of the year and when vid's like this come out it just hit's different. Now this is Monster Madness, good lookin out guys
Alien is so awesome.
Aww 1408 and The Witch didn't appear. At least Ringu was there
Hopefully Robert Eggers gets to make his version of Nosferatu
Is that actually a thing?
It would be awesome if Willem Dafoe got to play Nosferatu, again.
@@luismarioguerrerosanchez4747 At least at some point, Doug Jones was picked for the part.
That vampire make-up test looked awful though.
Love the Guile's skeleton heads in the background
I never realized how few 1940's horror movies I've seen until watching this video.
Start watching Svengoolie on METV. Every Saturday at 8pm. He does a lot of movies from 30's, 40's, 50's etc.
the 1920's? i remermber when we used to say "in the 20's" but were in the "NEW" '20s now. crazy right?
nah man alien was so creative and great and looks amazing to this day. Alien is one of the best movies ever made.
Totally with James on Hereditary. Its frustrating to try and convey to other people who weren't really affected by it for whatever reason but that movie shook me.
That movie was utter dogshit.
@@blackfox1320 edgy take bro
I really liked it too.
@@blackfox1320 Agreed. The walking on walls, and the way the son cries made me LOL
@@blackfox1320 sorry there’s no new avengers flicks coming out
Finally someone talks about the favourites way back.
My picks:
1920s: Nosferatu
1930s: The Mummy
1940s: Frankenstein meets the Wolfman
1950s:
1960s: Rosemary's Baby
1970s: Nosferatu the Vampyre or Eraserhead
1980s: The Thing
1990s: Se7en or Alien 3
2000: Let the Right One In
2010s: Hereditary or The Lighthouse
Picked costumes with built in facemasks... perfect!
"You think this is a costume? It's a way of life"!
"Come in dispatch. Send....more....paramedics"
James: We are starting farther back than most do, we are gonna start in the 20s.
Me: but the 20s just started.
Video: 1920s
Me: oh right, that 20s forgot about that one.
The best Horror in the 2020s is Corona
Cinema has come full circle
"Going farther back" and you mistook it with this year?? What a bafoon...
Night of the living dead is almost 60 years old... and James doesn’t want to spoil anything. 🤪🤭
And it's public domain!
And it still freaky as anything
Is 52 "almost 60"?
@@starwarsunfiltered7848 it is, when it’s older than most of James’ audience.
Edit: 52 is 86.67% of 60. I would say anything more than 85% is “almost”.
@@Turner_D_Century being
House on Haunted Hill isn't just my favorite Horror movie from the 50's, it's one of my favorite movies of all time. I wish it would receive more love. I never hear anybody really talk about it. When I mention that it's my favorite, people think the horrible remake.
The Lighthouse is my pick for favorite movie of 2010s just seeing it once just entranced me to the point that I feel its now my favorite movie ever
That's funny, because that's one of the worst movies I've ever seen.
I love seeing you too talk nostalgic entertainment I.e. movies & video games
So nice to see you guys together again
Dropping ice puns while wearing a Sub-Zero costume. Classic.
Thank you cinemassacre. You've made a rough October awesome 💓
"That's like when people call it he-man, masters of the universe"
"Well, Masters of the Universe is the title"
Perfection.
The franchise is Masters of the Universe, but if he's talking about the cartoon specifically he's actually right about the name.
@@SiGhast Either way, the point is the point.
Everyone knows what he's talking about, but some people just can't help themselves from being "well-actually-er's"
@@BigMikeSRT I might have misunderstood the point you were making.
@@SiGhast it's really the point James was making, that the technical name doesn't matter as much as the name everyone knows it by. In this case I think it was the Movie 'Brain Dead'
@@BigMikeSRT Ah, I get you now. I definitely misunderstood. My bad, dude.
I would of had The Picture Of Dorian Gray for the 40s.
sure you would have
@@westerling8436 oh, maybe youre right. in fact yes, you are right, congratulations. I wasnt sure, thank you for making me rethink my own opinion. I wasnt sure of my own opinion on the 40s. I would not have chose that film. Thanks again. Did my opinion offend you snowflake? Feel better now? What does your useless comment even mean?
He was correcting your grammar.
@@runningsuperska oh, so he is one of those guys who gets upset by grammar errors on youtube and has to point them out to feel some sort of self worth. im just posting my opinion on youtube, not trying to sit an exam or learn literature here. but thanks for clearing that up.
Take it easy buddy it's not THAT serious jesh!
IT IS TIME!!!!
Please please review the "Trailer Park Boy's" There is a tv show and multiple movies!! Love to see it as a "East Coast Maritime'er/Canadian eh! and also a fan of you guys!
Trailer Park boys is not Horror bro you may as mentioned Trashhumpers.
Fantastic video! I truly look forward to october for your videos.
Too bad.
This Halloween I'm staying home. I was gonna be a ninja wizard.
lol
House of 1000 corpses makes me really scared. Especially seeing Dr. Satan. 😱😁❤
That Mortal Kombat intro. I dig it! Haha
I never thought I would ever watch Shredder and Sub Zero talking about horror movies for an hour. 2020 has been one odd year...
I knew this day would come.
Not that anybody cares but here are my picks:
1920s: Phantom Of The Opera
1930s: Freaks
1940s: The Wolf Man
1950s: Godzilla
1960s: Rosemary’s Baby
1970s: Alien
1980s: The Thing
1990s: Misery
2000s: Saw
2010s: Get Out
I care. Thx for the picks, gotta watch a few of these, some I never heard of.
get out was sooooooo bad.
Mikael Angelo Fitness I enjoyed it, honestly the best part of that movie is when the Chris kills everybody. It’s entertaining at least in my opinion.
Madmad Monkey I haven’t seen that movie yet, will be watching it soon though.
I would have trouble picking just one from the 70's, but I can't argue with Alien. That's just one of the best movies of any decade or genre.
It was hilarious when James was making all those ice jokes while being dressed as sub zero hahaha
Spontaneous improvised humour is the best kind of humour :)
@@j-lgroen1239 🙄🙄🙄
I'm always gonna love Hellraiser.
I always thought the second one was the strongest in the series, even though I have the image of Uncle Frank's face being torn apart tattooed on my upper back.
My all-time favorite horror film is Phantom of the Opera from 1925. Been my favorite since I was 9. Love it! Also, kinda shocked you guys didn't even mention The Conjuring in the 2010s. It's a lot better than some of the ones you did mention.
My list would look like this:
20th: Nosferatu
30th: Frankenstein
40th: I Walked With a Zombie
50th: The Blob
60th: The Haunting
70th: The Dunwich Horror
80th: Evil Dead II
90th: In The Mouth Of Madness
2000: The Mist
10er: The Void
I have another great one for your 20s list: The Phantom Carriage.
Fright Night in the 80's for me
It's a tie between Poltergeist and Christine.
Fright Night is fantastic, really underrated. I couldn't decide between Poltergeist and The Thing.
Ahh man, You mentioned the Thing...That's up there as well @@graceonthewater
sure, thx for the info
@kyfkufkufc Agreed! They did miss them!
I am SO pleased you mentioned Goodnight Mommy. That movie is superb!
also really sad that In The Mouth Of Madness wasn't on the 90s list cuz that's one of my favorites
Nice to see Shredder and Sub-Zero just be laid back for a change.
Rosemary's Baby should've gotten a mention in the 60s decade.
James turned into Arnold Schwarzenegger's Mr Freeze, with all those ice jokes 🤣
