70's 80's Horror. What you like to see, worries - Blu-ray Forum

Police 427 · 07-15-2007, 05:45 PM

I wonder what the Friday the 13ths and Nightmare on Elm would look like, but some worries would be like Jaws and how you might tell how fake the shark is. Whats you Info.

Even though I have no interest in a BD Friday the 13th or equivalent, I think these movies rely on more viewer imagination. They don't explicitly show what happens (violence) they way a newer 90's - now movie would.

I think jaws would be awesome, they did such a great job with the "special effects" in that movie. I would love to see it on blu ray, I do not think you would be able to tell the shark was a fake.

Police 427 · 07-15-2007, 06:04 PM

what about some of the blood in the horror movies Ive seen one movie from the 70's I have on Blue Ray you can really tell it fake in the scenes, have you seen anything like that or think it would be a problem??

gumpaholic · 07-15-2007, 06:11 PM

I would like to see these on Blu-Ray:
1. Jaws (It's just an awesome flick and who cares if the shark was fake!)
2. Halloween (My all time favorite horror flick!)
3. Creepshow (Yes I would love to own that also! Stephen King Rules!)

Police 427 · 07-15-2007, 06:13 PM

whats your take on the Evil Dead series?

AWESOME!

Police 427 · 07-15-2007, 06:45 PM

I wonder if they would come out with that, but i did notice that they have the army of darkness on HD so maybe the wrong studio?? I dont keep up with what studio does what.

just saw the new dvd creepshow 3, bad, but at the same time campy fun.

I wouldn't be interested in any horror film from the 70's or 80's. After seeing some of them recently, most of them just don't stand the test of time, with the exception of The Exorcist and Romero's zombie flicks

Some of you (that might not have seen the thread) might find it of interest:

Starz Home Entertainment (Anchor Bay) goes exclusively BLU

Digital Filmmaker · 07-15-2007, 11:41 PM

I'm not really into the dead teenager movies like Friday the 13th.

However, I consider Fright Night to be an exception. It would be incredible on Blu-ray, as would the Evil Dead films. Alien and Aliens are on my list as well.

KenThompson · 07-16-2007, 02:58 AM

Anyone here like Pumpkin Head. Lance Hendrickson of Aliens is the main guy, the one who summons the creature.

JonD7 · 07-16-2007, 07:14 AM

ah the creepshow films would be great to see on blu-ray.
i'd also like to see Childs Play on Blu-Ray, just to see Chucky in high def would be awesome!
the Shining has to be my all time favorite horror film, i'd sell my soul to see that on Blu-Ray.
Fright Night would be fun to watch on Blu as well, uh... dang theres a ton of films but they just slip my mind at the moment, tired.

iceman00 · 07-16-2007, 07:22 AM

I would like to see all Friday, Nightmare and Halloween Movies on Blu Ray.

Smallville206 · 07-16-2007, 10:34 AM

I like most of the peoples picks here, but Friday the 13th gets my nod.

Lsalas76 · 07-16-2007, 01:49 PM

I would like to see Scream. I've seen the potential of hd horror movies. I have dish network with hd channels(up to 1080i) and one of the hd channels is the Monster channel - a 24 hr horror movie channel. Nightmare on Elm Streets, Halloweens, Friday the 13ths, and Child Plays series have already been on occasions.

Wozzle · 07-16-2007, 02:25 PM

You have to consider Hellraiser, just for it's disturbing visuals.

Ashplisken · 07-16-2007, 02:40 PM

The evil dead series, Zombi, Halloween, Hellraiser series, In The Mouth of Madness...

I don't know about you guys, but I could already tell the shark was fake... the special effects in Jaws are a tad bit dated.

u_nick · 07-16-2007, 02:41 PM

On the Monsters HD Channel on my cable service, they had a Friday the 13th marathon all weekend, and I have seen Halloween on there as well. All looked great in temrs of PQ.
