Default Introducing a newbie to Classic Horror!

Next week, I'm going to meet an old friend of mine. He's quite a bit into Horror movies, but mainly modern horror Ã* la Saw or Hostel.

That's why I will introduce him to some nice old Horror movies from the 60s, 70s, and 80s. I'm pretty sure he knows Argento only by name, and Fulci sounds like an Italian sausage to him. So it's about time for him to dig into some real nice old-fashioned Horror.

We will be spending almost a whole day together, so there should be time for at least six to seven Horror classics. As I don’t want to be too obtrusive, I will let him choose the films from the list below – after having given him a short introduction to each movie!

Feel free to comment on this ‘plan’ of mine, or on my very subjective list of flicks. He's not faint-hearted, so I've chosen - among many classics - some pretty heavy stuff.

I will post again by the end of next week - telling you about his (or more precisely: our) reactions. The bigger your interest in this thread, the bigger my final report.

The list:
The Texas Chainsaw Massacre
The Witchfinder General
Pieces
Maniac
The New York Ripper
The Living Dead At Manchester Morgue
Deep Red
Inferno
Tenebrae
Phenomena
City of the Living Dead
The Beyond
A Bay Of Blood
Night of the Living Dead
Dawn of the Dead
The Evil Dead
Nightmare City
The Burning
Nightmare Beach
Zombie Flesh Eaters
The Prowler


I’m also thinking of picking one modern Horror movie from the following:
Piranha 3D
Storm Warning
Switchblade Romance
Mother of Tears
Wolf Creek
Cabin Fever


Greetings!
