M · 11-04-2009, 07:47 PM

Could you guys suggest some good blu-ray horror's I can look for, I feel my collection doesn't have the best of what's to offer on blu-ray in the horror genre and would like to look, so far I have the following.

P2
Texas Chainsaw Massacre 2003
The Ruins
Freddy Vs. Jason
Splinter
The Midnight Meat Train
Drag Me To Hell
See No Evil
Splinter
Dawn of the Dead 1978

Suggestions must be for Region B Blu-Ray's or region-free imports.

The Descent (I'm not sure how the soon to be released UK and newly German releases are, but the AUS release is excellent and better than the US.)

Blu_Ray_UK2007 · 11-04-2009, 10:33 PM

It's out next week.. I have it pre ordered and cant wait to see it on Blu!

You could go for Dario Argento's The Bird With The Crystal Plumage. It's a US disc, but region free. Great introduction to Argento's work, and some decent extras. Excellent commentary track, too, from Alan Jones & Kim Newman. You may also like to consider Two Evil Eyes which is directed by Argento and Geroge Romero. The latters episode is no great shakes, but plenty to enthuse over in Argento's segment.

Zippyfan · 11-05-2009, 10:11 AM

i would add The Living Dead at Manchester Morgue

demoni · 11-05-2009, 11:30 AM

Everything Blue Underground releases!

And Hellraiser of course.

Martyrs is the best horror movie I've seen in many, many years. Inside is also worth a look. Two very nasty horror movies indeed.

Tons more, but I'm sure you'll get tons of suggestions from others.

Thanks for all the suggestions, still looking for more!

I own All The Boys Love Mandy Lane on blu-ray, I have seen it but yet to watch the blu-ray, The Chrildren was just terrible, a complete waste of time and I watched it with an open mind.

Trick R Treat was ok, but not really a horror, just a bunch of stories put together which are pretty cool.

Ghost Ship is ok for the opening scene, afterwards I thought it was boring and not worth the time.

I will purchase Halloween in ime, wasn't too happy with My Bloody Valentine, Wolf Creek was ok, I will probably get Poltergeist at the same time as Halloween.

I suppose if you liked Drag Me To Hell, Evil Dead II and III are worth a go. II doesn't look great on Blu (just about worth the extra price over the DVD), but III looks great.

Also, provided it turns out to be a decent transfer, get The Descent.

OrlandoEastwood · 11-07-2009, 02:13 AM

Feast is out in the UK on Blu-ray.

Mr. Brightside · 11-07-2009, 06:21 AM

Keep an eye out for a couple of Blue Underground releases early next year (March, I believe):
City Of The Living Dead
Vampyres

Also releasing Daughters Of Darkness next year.

Be great if some Bava and prime-time Argento made it to Blu.
