If you're into the sci-fi action horror type, then Resident Evil Afterlife is a good choice. I haven't personally seen this one, but I've heard that A Haunting in Salem has greath depth throughout, but not much pop if that's what you're looking for.

No problem, you won't be disappointed.

Resident Evil: Afterlife, The Final Destination and My Bloody Valentine all have great 3D effects. They really take advantage of the technology by having the pop out effect.

Saw 3D was little disappointing to me. There was some depth, but no real gimmick shots. Pirahna 3D was similar in that there was more focus on depth, but not on the pop out effect.

Drive Angry is more of a supernatural action movie, but I thought I would mention it as well. Plenty of 3D effects and it is usually pretty cheap.

Fright Night come out tomorrow and is getting good buzz, aside from the night shots supposedly being really dark.

Final Destination 5 was really good in the theatre and comes out on 3D Blu at the end of December.

If you are into J-horror and the like, then you may want to check out these two:

Child's Eye 3D (Hong Kong w/ English subs)
https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/The-C...Blu-ray/19220/

Shock Labyrinth (Taiwan release w/ English subs)
https://www.blu-ray.com/movies/The-S...Blu-ray/19338/

Both play on Region A (USA players). Shock Labyrinth uses Side By Side Mode for 3D.

And I really enjoyed Monster Vs Aliens' references to 50's horror and Sci-Fi too.

I may have to buy Monsters vs Aliens. The 3D looks really good and it looks funny with good Godzilla like action.

Bloody Valentine 3D I may also have to see, when the price drops hopefully. 40 bucks is too steep, 20 I can handle for movies not on my must see list. Saw 3D had great depth from the trailer I saw in theaters, just wasn't a big fan of the movie I saw, which was Saw 2. Final Destination 1 was okay, just didn't bother with the sequels. The 3D would have to be 16.99 for me to consider it on br3d.

RE Afterlife 3D was great.

Upcoming 3D in the horror genre include
Jan. 2012 Underworld 3D with Kate Beckinsale.
2012: Resident Evil Damnation 3D, a Capcom CGI animated movie
Sept 2012: Resident Evil Retribution 3D, live action
