"This young girl played by Ellen Page meets this older guy," "Played by Patrick Wilson for the first time in this coffee shop" "And they end up back at Patrick Wilson's house" "Which is very, very inappropriate" "Because she's like a young adolescent girl" "Going to this like full grown man's house." "Like he's just so slimy and charming and you do" "Like you want to hurt him in the manliest way possible." "What man would want to meet a 14 year old girl" "If he didn't have anything but bad intentions." "So I guess she's going to teach him a lesson" "And that she does." "It's a role reversal movie." "He's the fly and she's the spider" "And she's just drawing him into her web." "She's there for vengeance," "Like she is in no way vulnerable." "She is the bad ass in this relationship." "She is the one that's in control." "The great thing about this movie is its unpredictability." "Every time you think Patrick Wilson's" "Going to get the upper hand," "She turns the tables on him every single time." "I've talked to a lot of guys who walked out" "Because a particular scene in which Ellen Page" "Is snipping off the balls" "Of the male character." "She definitely holds his future in her hands. (Laughing)" "You're like watching the scene and slinking back in your seat" "A little bit more, a little bit more, a little bit more." "The whole time you're just like "No, no she's not,"" ""No she's not, no she's not!"" "Please!" "Please!" "I love that scene so much." "Damn right, that's right, that's what you get," "Now talk in a high voice for the rest of your life." "Ellen Page really, I must say pulled" "A real rabbit out of her hat" "With that performance." "For a girl, it's supposed to be playing" "A sadistic 14 year old." "It's really creepy and impressive." "She's so one thing at the beginning" "And is so different later in the film" "And it's almost hard to believe" "The same actress was playing that," "That one role." "Super scary, Ellen Page is crazy" "And you totally identify with this super crazy girl" "Who is tazing this guy in the shower" "And snipping his balls off." "It's one of the most fascinating" "And interesting character horror movies you'll ever see." "Like I think it takes the horror genre" "And kind of flips it in a lot of ways." "You could almost see that being a two character play." "Yeah, a couple other characters come into it briefly" "But it has that kind of unity and intensity." "You don't get off that easy, Jeff." "Revenge never tasted this good as Hard Candy." "Next up, an Italian castle with a very unwanted guest." "At number 26, Castle Freak." "Castle Freak was, not a lot of people know," "But it was actually based on an H.P. Lovecraft story" "Called The Outsider." "This is a movie that scared the shit out of me" "When I was like 18." "Jeffrey Combs and Barbara Crampton as this couple" "Who inherit an old castle in Italy," "Which turns out to have this hideous monster in the basement." "They get to the castle, everything's great honey," "We love it here but there's a freak." "The monster is actually this fellow named Giorgio" "Who had been chained up there since a child." "And sort of has become this ghoulish creature" "From lack of sunlight" "And being beaten with a cat and nine tails" "By his psychotic mother," "And fed horrible things." "He's only ever like lived chained" "In a basement of this old Italian castle." "Then on day his chain breaks and he terrorizes the people" "That had moved in the castle and their blind daughter." "I remember I was watching this with a boyfriend at that time" "And I was like "Oh my god, this movie's" "Actually really terrifying."" "(Woman screaming)" "Then after the movie was over he started doing this thing" "Where every time he looked at me he'd be like" ""Ha-yey ba-den."" "I was like, I'd be like "Stop it, that's not funny!" "It's not funny!"" "And I would like get really upset." "It is a fun effective scary little film." "There is an action figure that exists" "And you can have your own castle freak." "Rip off nipples or do whatever castle freak does," "Eat cats and do all the things." "Kids out there, get your castle freak figure." "What you see is what you get." "It's castle freak, there's a castle," "There's a freak in the castle." "It's scary." "(Woman screaming)" "You are watching 50 Best Horror Movies You've Never Seen." "A countdown of horror's hidden gems." "Claiming the number 25 spot, a fright fest called Feast." "John Gulager's Feast is one of the most" "Splattery movies you'll ever see." "It's one of those great creature features" "That has a really cool monster" "But at the same time it's got a really great sense of humor." "Ben Affleck and Matt Damon started this thing" "Called Project Greenlight" "Where the TV show would detail the production" "Of a low budget film" "And then at the end of the season," "The film would come out in theaters." "The first two time around, the show was great," "Movies kind of sucked." "Feast comes out, the show was great, the movie's great." "Horror fans got to sit and watch as they made a horror film" "From behind the scenes, especially" "What's creative involved." "For Dimension Films at that time, it was really cool." "The fact that no one really even saw the movie" "Has always been a big disappointment for me." "We designed Feast to kind of be like old Peter Jackson movies" "Or old Sam Raimi movies where they're really stylized," "Really violent but really funny." "It's about a bunch of monsters that attack" "All this people in a bar." "The bar in the middle of nowhere." "And then the door kicks in and there's this guy running in" "And his going like "batten down the hatches"" "And his got something in his hand." "It's the head of one of these guys, and it's been chopped off." "And they're relentless, and they swoop down on this bar" "And they break in and they start attacking people left and right." "They batten down the hatches and stuff." "Basically everybody knows, don't stand by the window" "But you think, well maybe this guy has it down." "His got a shotgun and he's going to save the day" "And his right in the middle of saying something like" ""I'm going to save your ass."" "Then he gets ripped out the window." "I'm the guy that's going to save your ass." "I don't even know how you can describe" "The creatures in Feast." "The creatures in Feast are - they're horny." "The monsters have penises." "The monsters in Feast will - you and kill you" "And not always in that order." "There's a big scene where the monster's penis" "Gets stuck in the door and they chop it off" "And it bounces down the stairs" "And it's kind of almost, seems like it's alive" "And it gets squashed and it squirts all over the camera." "We wanted to go that extra step" "And have it be a little unsavory." "That approach worked and the Feast" "Franchise cranked up two more sequels" "That served up the same unsavory fun." "Jenny Wade in the Feast movies" "Is sort of like Ash from Evil Dead." "Over the course of the three films," "She gets every single bodily fluid" "Tossed, gunked, everything you could possibly do" "To this poor woman across three movies." "Basically if it's a liquid it gets splashed" "Across somebody's face." "It's just wall to wall stuff like that," "You'll never ever know exactly" "What will happen next in a Feast movie." "Any horror fan who's getting" "Into horror would love this movie." "To me it's like the Evil Dead 2 of this generation." "And they do the same tricks all over again" "And surprise you all over again in Feast 2 and 3." "(Woman screaming)" "It's a Feast for the senses, isn't it?" "Rent this, now!" "And if you like a good dose of humor with your horror," "Try out Slither at number 24." "And the award for best use of an Air Supply song" "In a horror movie goes to:" "Slither!" "Slither is an awesome movie, I will just say that right now." "I love that movie." "The plot is, an alien lands on earth," "Wants to take over the world" "And kill everyone and eat them, or impregnate them" "And the towns folk are just trying to stop it" "From destroying the entire world." "Of course it happens in a small town" "Because it always happens in a small town." "Grant who's played by Michael Rooker" "Goes to investigate and ends up being infected." "He starts to mutate into a creature." "He goes on this meat lust" "Where he's like in the supermarket" "Looking at stacks of ground beef and just going "Meat."" "Meat, meat." "It brings back what a lot of horror films" "I think have been missing in recent time and that is humor." "A lot of people are caught off guard" "With the fact that Slither was a horror comedy" "Which at the time was sort of taboo." "It's unfortunate that it kind of got lost in the shuffle." "A lot of people instantly see the slugs" "And they're like "Oh I don't like bugs."" "But it really is one that not everybody see and it's so good." "What makes this different is the direction of James Gunn." "His execution of this story was brilliant." "James Gunn decided," ""Look we're not going to take ourselves seriously"" ""Because this story is ridiculous."" ""So we're just going to make a completely campy,"" "And tongue and cheek," "And fun, and yet scary and creepy." "Of all the movies on your list," "Slither should be at the top of your " "I haven't seen this yet but I really should." "James Gunn?" "Props, man." "(Man screams)" "Slither serves up sensational slimy fun." "Love a good gore fest?" "Check out Inside at number 23." "Inside is so disturbing," "It made me not want to have a child, personally." "I hope I never get pregnant after watching Inside." "Essentially it's a home invasion movie" "With a really - up twist." "The cool thing about Inside" "Is that the title actually has two meanings." "Obviously that's the obvious one, inside," "She's trying to get inside the house" "But there's something else she's trying to get inside" "And I think I'll let the movie speak for itself on that one." "You go in thinking that it's going to be" "A creepy killer kid movie" "And a baby that maybe is like Rosemary's baby or the devil" "And it's really not that at all." "It turns out to be a real cat and mouse thriller." "You take this most seemingly simple concept" "Of a woman alone in her house on a Christmas." "Then somebody shows up." "In the middle of the night, she gets a knock on the door" "And its a woman who says, "Oh I need to use your phone"" "And then tricks her way in." "There's this one scene where she's watching TV" "And the crazy lady comes out of the shadows from behind her." "Then it becomes this extreme, brutal " "It's maybe one of the goriest movies ever made." "The amount of gore is just astounding." "I mean it's really Grand Guignol" "And it brings back the French tradition" "Of the theatricality of the gore." "Inside is about two women battling." "When you put two men against each other" "It gets very testosterone driven." "It's like "Oh you man up - I can get you -"" "Your dead bro" " I'll kill you."" "But when it's women against each other" "It gets like a mother tiger protecting her young." "It gets very much like "Oh this it, you're done."" "When it gets to the blood bath stuff" "By the end you're almost like numb to it" "Because there's so much blood." "One of the key scenes in this movie" "Is where this woman has to give herself a tracheotomy." "I have to say tracheotomy scenes get me right here every time." "Inside has one that tops them all" "And it's really, really cringe inducing." "I don't think anybody was prepared for how gruesome" "And how out there eventually it got." "Make sure when you watch Inside that it's the unrated version" "Because the rated version is 10 minutes shorter," "That's how gory and gruesome this movie is." "It's a viscerally, brutal, relentless movie." "I mean it is not for the faint of heart" "But if you want something that is just raw hard," "It delivers the goods." "It will stick with you." "There's no ghosts, there's no creatures," "It's two women fighting each other" "With anything they get their hands on." "Pencils, scissors, axes, knives and it's gruesome." "Whenever anyone asks for me to recommend a great gore movie," "My first instinct is to recommend Inside." "(Woman screams)" "A bloody good time all right, only for the brave." "If you're in the mood for total creepiness," "Check out Tourist Trap at number 22." "Tourist Trap revolves around just that, a tourist trap" "Which is sort of a roadside attraction" "That you might encounter while driving down Route 66." "Like crashed UFO sighting," "Look at our little aliens in little jars." "It's one of those sort of stop here for a break and some gas" "And some food and here's the tourist trap." "It's where the tourists are trapped into buying stuff" "On the side of the road." "Tourist Trap from the late 1970s," "It's got some creepy mannequins in it." "Our heroes sort of converge at this tourist trap" "Which run by the incredible Chuck Connors." "Chuck Connors has a weird brother" "And it's the brother whose hobby" "Are this mannequins that he makes." "He puts on masks and different hair." "Probably the scariest masks I've seen in a horror movie." "It's kind of those half masks which cover" "Just about half your face except your mouth." "He's killing people and turning them into mannequins" "And then dancing with them and doing " "God, who knows what he does with them." "To him this is normal and this is a way to keep" "The things that are - that means something to him." "Some kids that were on the wrong place at the wrong time," "Wind up falling victims to a telekinetic mad man," "With a split personality." "It's really, really creepy" "And actually kind of hard to describe." "It sort of needs to be seen to be believed." "What really sells that though are those marvelously demented" "Mannequin things throughout the movie" "That are animated by telekinesis" "And their jaws drop open and they scream." "The whole mannequin itself will sort of move" "And then it's mouth will drop open" "And just sort of scream at you." "It's just so dementedly weird." "Even the king of horror, Stephen King," "Praised the movie in his book, Danse Macabre." "Claiming it wields an eerie, spooky power." "Anytime someone in this movie" "Like fights back or tries to get away," "All the mannequins start making these weird noises." "(Screaming)" "It's kind of neat and it's really beautiful in a way." "Even though it's very creepy." "Creepy little film you know." "To this day, I can't stand next to" "A realistic looking mannequin" "In a department store." "I know that that sounds silly for a guy who's 39" "But that's how effective that movie was in terrifying me." "If you don't like mannequins you will love Tourist Trap." "(Horror music)" "(Woman screaming)" "Tourist Trap is a creepy little classic" "That you'll never forget." "Now get ready for another genre classic," "Trilogy of Terror, next at number 21." "The Trilogy of Terror film is so great." "It's an anthology film and anthology films" "Are made up of shorts" "That are strung together into a feature movie." "The Twilight Zone, the Creepshow movies," "All of those are anthology films." "Well, Trilogy of Terror was one of the first" "And it's also one of the best." "Karen Black stars in each one of the three shorts" "That are in the feature film." "Nobody ever remembers the first two shorts, nobody." "You ask them, "Have you seen Trilogy of Terror?"" "And ask them to talk about it," "They will always talk about that third and final story." "You really have to hold out for the third chapter" "In the Trilogy of Terror." "It's a story about a doll coming to life," "Not just coming to life but being" "Extremely violent and murderous." "The Zuni fetish doll, little African doll" "With the long hair and a spear, and his about yay big." "And he starts chasing her around her apartment." "Basically the idea is that if the necklace" "That its wearing falls off," "It comes to life." "She sets this doll down" "And the little chain falls off it" "Onto the coffee table." "Next thing you know, this little warrior doll," "His got this teeth, these fangs" "And he's all dressed up as a warrior," "And he's got the spear and he comes alive." "What I love about this film is that" "There are absolutely no computer generated effects." "This movie didn't have any CGI." "This was a little African doll with a spear" "That was actually animated somehow" "To run around after Karen Black." "You didn't need CGI because there was Zuni fetish doll cam." "So the camera is at that level chasing" "Her kind of nipping at her heels," "Nipping at her ankle." "It just charges after Karen Black." "I mean it's like she's a piece of meat" "And he's just trying to kill her." "Any which way that he possibly can." "He's really viscous and very mean." "This little doll is out of control." "There's a scene where she throws him" "Inside this little suitcase and you think," "Well thank God it's locked in the suitcase." "Until you see this little sword come out and cut his way" "Out of the suitcase." "And he works so hard at everything, "Hee-hee-hee."" "He's just so determined to kill her." "And you think it sounds silly" "But I'm telling you it's a huge impact on you," "You'll never look at little dolls the same." "Long before Chucky from Child's Play hit the silver screen" "There was the Zuni fetish doll." "(Creature screaming)" "(Woman screaming)" "You are watching 50 Best Horror Movies You've Never Seen." "A countdown of horror's hidden gems." "Up next at number 20" "Is a prickly little gem called Splinter." "Splinter is this movie that not a lot of people have seen yet" "But it's super, super creepy." "Some reason just thinking about it, I get chills." "That thing with the spikes and the thing " "It's just weird, and creepy, and gross." "Splinter came to me actually as a script." "It was originally called Tooth and Nail." "It reminded me a lot of all the great horror movies" "I loved as kid." "The very sort of contained siege based movies like," "Dawn of the Dead, Alien, The Thing." "Movies where people are trapped in a situation" "And have to deal with whatever's attacking them." "Takes place at a gas station" "And these people are stuck inside" "Of the gas station convenient store" "And there's this monster outside that is pretty relentless" "And it's trying to get on in." "What is the actual creature itself" "And really there is no creature." "There is no entity, it's basically a substance." "If it touches you, you sort of get infected by it." "The core of the idea for the creature" "In Splinter came from is that it infects you" "From the inside and takes over your body" "And takes control of your skeletal structure" "With no regard for how your body normally works." "It's not a vindictive creature," "It just wants to survive in propagated species." "As long as it has something to eat off, it will stay alive." "Splinter features some of the best special effects ever." "It's absolutely incredible." "There's a scene in the movie where one of the characters" "Gets infected at the top of his hand" "And they need to remove his hands." "So, I mean how do you do that?" "You cut it off but if you don't have necessary tools," "You have to break it off." "So Splinter has one of the most disgusting arm removal scenes" "You will ever, ever, ever see." "The idea of this severed hand running around and chasing them" "Is kind of funny but It's also just kind of terrifying." "I mean the thing is really coming at them." "Go!" "Go!" "I really like that scene." "It's kind of the fun break in horror movie" "That the audience really needs I think at that point in the film." "And It's a crowd pleaser, it's a lot of fun to watch." "Go see Splinter, okay?" "Rent it, NetFlix it." "Every time you think that you have them figured out," "It kinds of veers laughter, veers right." "Really, really cool, really dark, really strange." "Run." "I just love a movie that gets under your skin, don't you?" "If you're looking for bone chilling scares" "Look no further than Session 9 at number 19." "Session 9 is about a group of guys." "They're an asbestos removal team." "They go and they take this asbestos out" "Of this huge abandoned mental hospital" "And they go in and they start working on this thing." "And they're in separate wings and it's a place" "That's absolutely horrifying." "One of the guys finds a box that says, evidence on it." "Inside this box are all these tapes," "Prerecorded interviews of a patient that used to live there." "I think it was patient 444" "And it's all of these tapes marked session one, session two," "Session three, and there's nine of them." "I was watching the movie in my bedroom one night." "My wife is asleep next to me." "In the middle of the scene where he's listening" "To those really slow tapes and all that stuff." "My wife kind of woke up in the middle of a nightmare" "And she said, "What the hell are you watching?"" ""What is this movie?"" "What happens to this crew after listening to these tapes," "It's like this energy is summoned inside this asylum." "It starts to sort of affect them" "And they start to crack up a little bit." "Each guy is kind of living in his own nightmare" "And the movie just absolutely blew me away" "Because they did so much with so little." "It's got all the atmosphere of the shining." "It's got all that, what's around that next corner." "It's just harrowing from beginning to end." "Everything that's scary about Session 9 is in your head" "And it's got a great reveal ending." "With a lot of reveal endings, they're kind of groan worthy." "The audience goes, "Oh my god, are you kidding me?"" "If you make it through the movie and you get to that last line," "I mean, I will never forget that." "That line is always running through my head." "So - twisted." "I don't know anyone that has seen this film" "But every time I bring up horror movies," "I tell people to see this movie." "You have to see it." "(Laughing)" "Happy nightmares everyone." "Up next at number 18 is Ginger Snaps." "The movie, not the cookie!" "There's [not] a lot of great werewolf movies." "American Werewolf in London, The Howling, The Wolf Man." "They kind of peak with those" "And then There's kind of nothing that comes close." "I would actually put Ginger Snaps" "In that same league with those great werewolf films." "Ginger Snaps is about a teenage girl" "Who's a ginger who changes, turns into a werewolf." "It's coming of age story" "Except it involves teen girls and werewolves." "It was really interesting seeing that metaphor" "For the beast inside." "You know, and like seeing this woman confront her sexuality" "Through the act of becoming a werewolf." "That is like the greatest movie metaphor" "For female puberty ever." "It reminds me of when I was a teenage girl" "And I got my period and I turned" "Into a werewolf and I started killing teenage boys." "So here was a really unique interesting take" "About two sisters named Bridget and Ginger." "They're kind of outcasts, they're kind of rebels." "They stick together, they're the best of friends" "And they sort of like hate everybody else." "They're kind of misanthropic and living" "In their own little world." "And Ginger gets bit by a werewolf" "And her little sister who is more the main character" "Sort of tries to get her to quit killing people." "But also the main character's name is Ginger and she snaps" "But I love, I love a pun title." "These two girls are not normal to begin with" "And on top of that, now the older one's" "Turning into a werewolf." "All of a sudden boys are attracted to her" "And they want to take her out" "And she doesn't really know how to do it" "Because she's always been a weird girl" "Who didn't like boys and boys didn't like her." "And then all of the sudden she's ovulating" "And they find her more attractive." "Ovulating meaning she's a werewolf." "It's actually a really sweet movie" "Even though It's about a high school girl tearing out throats" "And like having six nipples as a werewolf." "Six or eight." "I don't know, is it weird that that still looks sexy to me?" "When you talk about transforming," "It's not like American Werewolf in London" "Where it's just like a two minute sequence" "Of her rolling on the floor" "And growing fangs and fingers growing," "And nails getting longer." "It's a slow process that she grows like a tail," "She starts getting a little hair." "It is really a vicious and dark movie." "It really explores the relationship" "That these two girls have" "And how far is one willing to go to help the other" "And how far can they really trust each other" "When these monstrous elements come out in them." "It's a really amazing way to look at that." "You're both a girl still but you're also a beast in some ways" "Once you hit puberty." "You're mauling men." "That's what happened to me when I hit puberty." "I started mauling men in the back of cars." "Normally It's the wolf MAN." "It's men playing werewolves, but this is really great" "Because it was seen werewolves from a female perspective." "Any teenager growing up that's looking for" "New horror films to check out," "Ginger Snaps is definitely one of them." "It's part of growing up when you're dealing with all" "These different sides of yourself" "That you discover as you get older." "Hers just happens to be like covered" "In hair like the major fangs." "(Werewolf roaring)" "Werewolf movies just don't get any better than this." "If creepy religious children spook you" "Then check out Alice Sweet Alice at number 17." "Alice Sweet Alice overall is one of the scariest movies" "I've ever seen but nobody really remembers it" "At least in the current generation." "Alice Sweet Alice takes place in the 60s." "It's about a mother that's preparing her younger daughter" "For her first communion" "And the other sister is jealous about this." "Besides that she's going to start being mean to her sister." "Her own parents are afraid of her" "But there's an added element to it" "And that It's highly Catholic." "Nothing's creepier than the creepy music" "And a girl whispering." "Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee, blessed are..." "And just over and over again as the titles are rolling." "The murders in Alice Sweet Alice" "Are among the most gruesome" "I have ever seen and even 30 years after the movie was made" "They remain shocking." "That's a big part of the power behind Alice Sweet Alice" "Is the intensity of the kills." "The girl who plays the killer," "She puts on this sort of clear mask." "That transparent mask with a blue eye shadow" "And a rouge around the cheeks and the red lipstick." "And it's transparent and you kind of see it" "But you really can't see who's behind the mask." "She's creeping through the church" "And you know that It's her from the very beginning." "It's almost like Rhoda in The Bad Seed" "Where you know that she's bad." "This rage keeps building up in the sister" "That she ends up killing her 9 year old sister" "Who's played by Brooke Shields." "Brooke Shield screams and the mask is pulled out" "And there's an even creepier mask." "(Horror music) (girl screams)" "You don't expect to see violence done to a child like that." "It's like, wow, it broke some taboos." "That's when the body count starts." "Everyone who's amongst that little cast of characters" "Is being killed off one by one." "The whole town is just so surprised that this has happened" "In this small community and It's a search for who this killer is." "This whole movie, every character," "Something's wrong with them." "Also worked well as a police thriller" "And mystery at the same time." "This one is the one that is not as famous" "As The Bad Seed or Audrey Rose," "Creepy Kids, movies like that the people have heard of." "Not many have seen Alice Sweet Alice" "But It's definitely worth looking." "(Creepy music)" "Now that little girl makes the skin crawl." "Don't miss Alice Sweet Alice." "Next up at number 16 is a movie you'll remember" "If you're ever hospitalized," "Visiting Hours." "There was this sub genre in the early 80s" "Of news women reporters in danger." "There are movies like Eyes of a Stranger" "And The Howling and The Seduction," "And the list kind of goes on and then There's Visiting Hours." "I think people were going into it expecting another" "Jason or Michael or whatever like that and it wasn't." "It was actually like intelligent adults" "In intelligent situations." "Visiting Hours is kind of a rip off of Halloween 2" "Where you have the serial killer who just has to get" "Into that hospital and terrorize the nurses" "And patients, and the anchor woman" "Whose love interest is played by William Shatner." "Always a plus!" "In Visiting Hours, Lee Grant plays an anchor woman" "Who's very opinionated and very strong." "For some reason we don't know at first why" "But really in theory It's Michael Ironside" "Who plays our killer." "He's got some personal vendetta against her." "So he stalks her, injures her in her home" "And then she's sent to the hospital" "Where he stalks her more during the visiting hours." "Unlike the other 80s horror films," "Like Michael Myers or Jason," "Michael Ironside is this character that is out front" "You know who this guy is." "This wasn't a faceless killer." "This is someone you meet right away." "You see what he exactly looks like right away." "You go to his apartment and you see where he lives." "You follow him around like he's an ordinary guy" "Which actually makes it terrifying" "That this guy could be any person on the street." "Yeah, you don't want to run in to this guy." "He just sort of wanders in whenever he wants." "He pretends to be a well wisher," "He even hurts, injures himself so he has to go to the hospital." "(Glass breaking)" "He mutilates his arm by taking a bottle, smashing it," "Giving him some really bad cuts" "To get him admitted into the hospital."
