The "villains" in 28 Days Later run because they are NOT zombies. They're not dead or undead. They're living people infected with a virus, which is why we see them starving to death near the end. Nowhere in the film are they referred to as dead or undead, the movie just follows the zombie flick formula.
When you said REC gave us the "original" idea of demonic possession as a contagious illness, all I could think was "Aren't you forgetting about the Evil Dead franchise?"
From Dusk til Dawn flipped the script. Thought we were watching a typical crime movie, but then it blossomed into a gnarly vampire flick. Quentin Tarantino and Robert Rodriguez broke the rules there I guess.
The From Dusk til Dawn series was even better than the original movie, especially since the format allows plenty of time to expand on the lore, both criminal and supernatural, and really develop the characters. Sex Machine and Santanico especially benefit from this treatment....yes it was on Spike TV, and like the equally terrific Blade series, relied a LOT on dated female nudity tropes, but hey Titty Twister, there's gonna be T&A...
WTF!!! "RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD" was the first movie to have Zombies Running!!!!!!!!!! With Humor!!! And eating Brains. "Send More Cops." "Sene More Paramedics."
The second one is my favorite. Honestly, I think because I saw it on "Fox 53" when I was like 8 years old. It was heavily edited for tee-ve e, but it was aired around dusk a week or so before Halloween, so it just stuck some iconic images in my head. Awesome movie.
Where the hell is Alien (1979)?? The first female lead in a horror blockbuster; a black guy who doesn't die first; countless twists and turns; new, unique creature.
A female lead that doesn’t have a breakdown, doesn’t stand still screaming for 30 seconds & totally kicks ass. It took a few years for horror films to catch on, but this & Halloween changed the way women were portrayed in film.
@@bizzaroblake2519 Normally he dies first or second or somewhere in the first half. In this particular case he died in the very end plus in a very heroic way defending a woman!
Curse of the Werewolf does not depict a child of rape as a monster - it depicts a child of rape carrying the rage and shame felt by his mother externalised by his werewolf side. To sum it up as you did is to miss the point entirely
Seeing Wes Craven's New Nightmare as #1 on this list warms my heart. I remember being in the theater when I first saw the trailer for this and I about popped in excitement. After so many subpar sequels following the original, this just came off like something vastly different than what we had from 2 to 6. It mirrors the original in that it opens with a nightmare, only this time around two people die. From this point forward we're off to the races and I loved how this movie blurred the line between Heather dreaming versus her actually being awake. I also loved how they didn't overdo it with The Entity appearing. For much of the first half, with the exception of the funeral, we only saw the hand. This movie gave us the proper closure for Heather's Nancy character that 3 failed to do.
As much as I loved Dream Warriors, Nancy definitely deserved a better ending. I definitely agree that New Nightmare was a much better way to say goodbye to Nancy/ Heather Langencamp. New Nightmare was the first Elm Street movie I was old enough to see in the theater, so like you, I was so excited to see it! It did not disappoint!
@@jenniferkovalick2959 I was too young to understand the first film when it was released, but Dream Warriors was the first that I properly watched. Enjoyed it at the time, but havent watched in a few decades. Must cue it up one day, into my queue. 😃
@@kanedaku That's awesome! Dream Warriors has always been one of my top 2 faves in the series, tied with the original of course. I rented all of them or watched them on TV as a kid, but New Nightmare was my first in theater watch. That's really cool you got to see Dream Warriors in the theater! I was born in 82 so I grew up watching Freddy in his heyday. Such a great time for slashers!
Im from Norway 🇳🇴. And the funniest cameo ever is in the movie Trollhunter, where the former prime minister of Norway who is now the secretary general of NATO Jens Stoltenberg has a cameo in the end as the prime minister of Norway saying "Norway has trolls" 🤣.
@@metern there was an episode called Skank Hunt which was set in Denmark I think, and the leader of the troll hunting group was the president of the country iirc.
I'm sorry, but the giant hand at the end of "Cabin in the Woods" has nothing to do with Cthullu nor a lack of ability to show a Lovecraftian horror. The giant hand is a VERY obvious reference to the "old gods" and who exactly they are: the very AUDIENCE watching horror movies. It's a very sly (and apparently completely misunderstood!) conclusion to the film which is overloaded with horror movie clichés and basically slaps the audience in the face with "we make horror movies like this because it's what YOU demand!!"
@@Wednesdaywoe1975 The version of Trick Or Treat I've seen doesnt have Werewolves in it, it involves a crazy Rocker coming back from the dead to destroy the high school that expelled him. (1986). What year is the movie you are talking about?
They've been doing compilation videos. All the videos in this one are about breaking the rules but each chunk of movies is from a different episode with a different theme like 'space movies' or 'werewolf movies' or 'remakes' etc.
You got the Prince of Darkness wrong. The liquid within the tank is not Satan, but his son. The son wants to bring Satan out from the other realm, which he is trapped in. The son just needs a body, and then can summon his father through a mirror and give him a hand out of that realm and into the human universe.
I actually thought Dr Sleep worked pretty well. Obviously, it was never going to be anywhere as good as Stanley Kubrick's The Shining, but it was a really strong movie in its own right.
I just saw Isolation the other day and was shocked at how good it was! A younger Sean Harris and Essie Davis completely surprised me in this hidden and underrated gem!
The "twist" referenced in the Wailing portion isn't that the woman spirit is causing the real hauntings n killing in the film. The film encourages people to be wary of everyone, but it's clear by the end that the woman spirit was trying her best to protect people, evidenced by the charms deteriorating at the end of the film when the man doesn't heed her warnings to stay away from his daughter. She was mostly a way to hit on the topic of having faith, the police officer not having faith enough in her that he ends up dying, too.
The Ginger snaps films were honestly good. The remake of Invasion Of The Body Snatchers, Under The Skin, Pitch Black, Wolfen, An American Werewolf In London, i can recommend all of those films.
Yay!! Attack The Block got mentioned!! I saw its director being nominated for best upcoming new director at BAFTAs that year for ATB. I was sold right away. And so damn glad it didn't let me down.
Dude, I freakin' LOVE Pandorum!! And it's not just because it has a real-life Goddess in it (Antje Traue), though that certainly doesn't hurt! It's because it's got a compelling story and doesn't compromise on its narrative to pander to audiences need to see epic space battles/ etc...
28 Day Later isn't zombies though. It's rage. They're not reanimated dead. They're basically Firefly's Reavers but with less capability for civilization.
I feel like more than half of this list was just stitching other countdowns together and didn't really focus on how these movies actually flipped the script
As an attorney, I would argue that the Exorcism of Emily Rose is not only a good movie but the courtroom scenes are some of, if not the most, accurate courtroom scenes I've ever seen in a movie.
I remember watching Dog Soldiers on the scifi at night as a kid hiding behind my dad's chair. It was one of the first horror movies i watched as a kid and got me into horror movies to begin with
went and watched Pandorum in theaters while in college. didn't have classes on Wednesday and I found that I could basically have the whole theater to myself for the matinee showings so would just go and watch random movies. went in not even having seen a trailer for it or even looking up what it was. enjoyed it a ton and was super creepy watching alone in a dark theater. it's a shame that I don't think I had one friend that ever saw it. was highly underrated imo.
The thing in Altitude was not, under any circumstances, Cthulhu. The entire twist of the movie was that the tentacled thing was absolutely not a cosmic horror entity. Did someone just watch clips of the movie showing tentacles attacking an airplane?
The survivors in Monsters cannot possibly be described as having 'chemistry'. The most incredible thing in the movie is that they have less charisma than the monsters that were created on a single laptop.
Erm... a) it's not a good movie of any sort with even the creators admitting it's a hot mess And... b) this video stated that Exorcist 3 is the only good Exorcist sequel. SEQUEL
Original Suspiria: One of the most beautiful AND scariest films ever made Death Becomes Her: Great effects Final Destination: Unseen (?) grim-reaper possess objects to create contrived accidents to kill people in the most horrifying way possible Sole Survivor: the movie that inspires Final Desstination AND It Follows Audition (1999): from a boring film to a new level of torture
It was average at best IMO. It does seem mostly quite loved these days though, so I am probably in the minority. I didn't hate it by any means. Good acting... usually. It's also just a clever idea in general for an Exorcism movie, but I think plays it too safe at times. Glad people dig it though.
@@GeneralofVinceArmy I don’t know I liked it. It was something different. The main girls acting was great and it’s based off a true story, the girl in real life died and they actually took the priest and her parents to trial
To say the heroine in Pitch Black was skewered by hubris is stupid. She showed compassion to someone who didn't deserve it and died as a result, which brought about a change in him. Much better and deeper movie than it gets credit for.
I think I would have liked it more if Ryan Reynolds and Jake Gyllenhaal's roles been switched (I did NOT like Jake at the time, can't remember why tho LOL), rewatching recently though I actually enjoy it more than I did back then.
The ending was great! The creature is one the greatest sci-fi monsters in recent cinema... It's a pleasure to watch a film not created to be a franchise and cash-grab!
And Posession is definitely my pick. I’ve never seen a bad divorce handled so well and HONESTLY imo. Sam and Isabelle in that restaurant are amazing. And that’s WELL before the horror starts… but man does it set the tone. Devastatingly so. It’s a chaotic yet cathartic mess of ideals. You can’t root for anyone… I’m with her tho. 😂
I think its hilarious that you give Monsters credit for focusing more on the human drama than the giant monster. Clearly, you've never watched the original Gojira (Godzilla in English speaking countries) from 1954. The titular monster is barely in the movie; it's a movie focused on the destruction and death left in its wake.
The Sam Raimi/Ghost House trilogy Evil Dead was bluddy brilliant!! Was that Dina Meyer in Saw 3...? REC and V/H/S are great series of films... Surprised not to see Videodrome on this list...? That was one weird horror-ish film.
Dr. Sleep is very close to being a perfect movie, it’s relies a little to heavily on Kubrick at the end but that’s it. It’s at least as good as The Shining.
Invasion of the Body Snatchers gets better the further back in time you go. All four movies in order of how old they are sequentially are better each step back. That's progress for you.
Lol,it would seem I am alone in this ,but I really thought Apollo 18 was scary as it's bad enough for that to happen on earth,but in space there's no way to get help!I truly hope and pray that you are all blessed out there and happy!!Thankyou too watch mojo pray you are all happy and blessed as well!!!🧚♂️🌺⚘🌼🥀🏵🌹🌻🌈❤👾👽
I understand that I'm watching a video analysis of horror films but as always in frustrated with whatcultures writing staff for continually over sharing and divulging key pieces of information that spoil major parts of the film. Its so unnecessary and plenty of other list channels find a way to talk about the films without doing this. What culture has at least 1 very avoidable spoiler in nearly every list video though. Just sucks, i love the presenters and really enjoy WC but the needless spoiling is so frustrating.
Mate, all you have to say about _Under The Skin,_ is "It features Scarlett Johansen fully naked, in several full frontal, epic sequences." That's it. Had you said that, it would quickly become the most downloaded movie in history...
I have only one quibble with this very long supercut list - Wolfen is NOT a werewolf movie. The Wolfen of the title are a super intelligent species of wolf with human levels of dexterity and tool manipulation. It is implied that they give rise to the lycanthropy legends themselves. On a different subject, how many of the vocal talent featured on this video still work for WhatCulture? Jules Gill has moved on, I'm not sure if that's Kirsten Ria or Ellie Littlechild on the 2nd part, but if it's Kirsten she's gone too, I can't remember the last time I heard new content from Tilly... Which leaves Josh, and I'm not sure if he's still there either!
Any good? I seen about 20 min of the original and I was pretty into it. The breathing behind the mask and all. Wanted to see the remake but my ocd wants me to hit the originals first
While I can see the female voice artist for dialogue. I don't think her voice works well here for a longer narration. It's also a weird cut in-between voices.
With "curse of the werewolf" as the child as product of rape.... It isn't great messaging but in the European folkloric sense; it follows with one aspect of what might "cause" an issue. It's still messed up
Uh What?! you said "Dr. Sleep doesn't quite work" ?!! totally wrong.. wow! Its a fantastic movie written by Stephen King and masterfully directed by Mike Flannigan and Yeah It Works perfectly.
I didn't like Dr. Sleep's ending. For me specifically, it went too hard into recreating the chase scene by having Danny unnecessarily killed off and tortured. There was no need for him to be so cruelly hurt to recreate it, and all the hype surrounding his and the kid's mind powers fell flat for me. When all of the boxes opened, I actually was letdown by the fact that there were only 6 entities. Danny was SUPPOSED to have been fighting and capturing ALL of the hotel's entities, so I was expecting like 20. For me, the reliance on recreation of old scenes was too focused on rather than maintaining the original vibe, so the entire ending just makes me disappointed compared to what we could've gotten. It's a good movie, and I like it, but just like the 7th, 8th, and 9th Star Wars movies, I feel robbed compared to what could've been if the direction was a bit more adventurous. There was no need to cling so tightly to the original movie to make the ending feel like it's not even the same film because they did so much different things throughout the rest of it. If people were gonna be mad that the ending was too far off from The Shining, they also would've been yelling about the entire REST of the film, so the direction they went in for the end just feels unneeded, and even rushed, from my perspective.
I love The Howling 3. It's the only one from the series I like. Between the use of thylacine werewolves and the weird romance and "last of their species" plot instead of regular horror, it's truly unique. I wouldn't properly call it a horror movie though
Bad enough to call 28 Days Later a zombie movie, but then to call its still living rage virus victims "the walking dead" Immediatey disliked and stopped watching the video, because if they can't get that right their opinion isn't worth listening to.

Has WC just given up on doing outros?
Well it seems like they've just given up on making new content altogether in general.
I understand that I'm watching a video analysis of horror films but as always in frustrated with whatcultures writing staff for continually over sharing and divulging key pieces of information that spoil major parts of the film. Its so unnecessary and plenty of other list channels find a way to talk about the films without doing this. What culture has at least 1 very avoidable spoiler in nearly every list video though. Just sucks, i love the presenters and really enjoy WC but the needless spoiling is so frustrating.
25:36 it was the 18th century and it wasn’t the grim's fairy tales version but Charles Perrault's
Tbh there was a lot of adaptations, one was made by the Grimm's, one was made by Charles and one was made in either Italy or Austria.
Dog Soldiers is the F*CKING BEST WEREWOLF MOVIE EVER!!!
I've never seen a truer statement, it's that damn good.
I loved that video, but you totally forgot "The Diabolical"
Mate, all you have to say about _Under The Skin,_ is "It features Scarlett Johansen fully naked, in several full frontal, epic sequences." That's it.
Had you said that, it would quickly become the most downloaded movie in history...
2:53 *GRETA THUNBERG!* 🤣
This video ends why Jules was in mid-sentence, breaking the rules of youtube videos as well! 😁
I liked Burning Bright until it implied that autism was something that could be cured by a shared, tense experience.
god i LOVE attach the block
I have only one quibble with this very long supercut list - Wolfen is NOT a werewolf movie. The Wolfen of the title are a super intelligent species of wolf with human levels of dexterity and tool manipulation. It is implied that they give rise to the lycanthropy legends themselves.
On a different subject, how many of the vocal talent featured on this video still work for WhatCulture? Jules Gill has moved on, I'm not sure if that's Kirsten Ria or Ellie Littlechild on the 2nd part, but if it's Kirsten she's gone too, I can't remember the last time I heard new content from Tilly... Which leaves Josh, and I'm not sure if he's still there either!
Harold's Going Stiff.
Yo homes, I saw The Town That Dreaded Sundown. I dug it fully for some reason
OG or remake?
@@lycanthrope9760 remake. I saw the OG on vhs.
Any good? I seen about 20 min of the original and I was pretty into it. The breathing behind the mask and all. Wanted to see the remake but my ocd wants me to hit the originals first
@@lycanthrope9760 I enjoyed it, a mix of the old tied in with a splash of "reality." I say give it a try
One Cut of the Dead?
It’s crazy how CZcams allows this. Anyway, here’s a comment for y’all algorithm
Wasn’t Brian Yuzna Re-Animator’s producer and not director?
"ATTACK THE BLOCK" is awesome! One of my absolute favourites.
The Stuff rules!!!!!
I loved attack the block!
28 days later,
Not Zombies…. Ugh
Scottish Species 😂😂😂😂😂
While I can see the female voice artist for dialogue. I don't think her voice works well here for a longer narration. It's also a weird cut in-between voices.
At what point did the list turn into a werewolf list ?
With "curse of the werewolf" as the child as product of rape.... It isn't great messaging but in the European folkloric sense; it follows with one aspect of what might "cause" an issue. It's still messed up
Uh What?! you said "Dr. Sleep doesn't quite work" ?!! totally wrong.. wow! Its a fantastic movie written by Stephen King and masterfully directed by Mike Flannigan and Yeah It Works perfectly.
I didn't like Dr. Sleep's ending. For me specifically, it went too hard into recreating the chase scene by having Danny unnecessarily killed off and tortured. There was no need for him to be so cruelly hurt to recreate it, and all the hype surrounding his and the kid's mind powers fell flat for me. When all of the boxes opened, I actually was letdown by the fact that there were only 6 entities. Danny was SUPPOSED to have been fighting and capturing ALL of the hotel's entities, so I was expecting like 20. For me, the reliance on recreation of old scenes was too focused on rather than maintaining the original vibe, so the entire ending just makes me disappointed compared to what we could've gotten. It's a good movie, and I like it, but just like the 7th, 8th, and 9th Star Wars movies, I feel robbed compared to what could've been if the direction was a bit more adventurous. There was no need to cling so tightly to the original movie to make the ending feel like it's not even the same film because they did so much different things throughout the rest of it. If people were gonna be mad that the ending was too far off from The Shining, they also would've been yelling about the entire REST of the film, so the direction they went in for the end just feels unneeded, and even rushed, from my perspective.
I love The Howling 3. It's the only one from the series I like. Between the use of thylacine werewolves and the weird romance and "last of their species" plot instead of regular horror, it's truly unique. I wouldn't properly call it a horror movie though
Bad enough to call 28 Days Later a zombie movie, but then to call its still living rage virus victims "the walking dead"
Immediatey disliked and stopped watching the video, because if they can't get that right their opinion isn't worth listening to.
not to mention that fast "zombies" were first introduced in the 1980 Italian film Nightmare City.
There are more women werewolves in cinema than men now. At a minimum equal if you count the mixed ones.
