Five More Underrated Horror Films

[KanekoXLiamB]

The clips of the first 2 movies were more funny than scary to me, and the last one "Tourist Trap" does remind me of House of Wax (the newer one anyway).

[Themaniacnextdoor]

Tourist trap....i hate that movie. Would the burning be considered underrated, or sleepaway camp. Most people don't know much about them. Sad, both are superior to friday the 13th.

[15rhan]

takot ako ahe

[lokismig]

The Innocents is underrated? It is famous and valued

[theproplady]

The most recent "House of Wax" movie (the one with Paris Hilton) was actually a remake of Tourist Trap, despite being named after the 1953 House of Wax movie (with Vincent Price. )

[TheTygre]

7:12

Oh how bad could it be?

7:23

... aaand I now know what Hell looks like. Thank you for that.

[Imcrazybored]

@TheTygre My heart stopped. :/

[KilmerVarient]

What about Maniac,Dont go in the house,The Orphan,Dead and buried?

[proudcrip]

i have seen all othese ones."Alice Sweet Alice" is the best,it was known as "Communion" in the UK.

[mconeillster]

Tourist Trap would play on this off-the-wall cable station called "Showbiz" back around 1981 in the Dallas area. I was like 7 then and I saw that flick and it just freaked me the fuck out!

[brooksie19]

cool list..well done.. saw alice sweet alice and carnival of souls and the innocents awhile ago freaky films!

[brooksie19]

cool list..well done.. saw alice sweet alice awhile ago freaky film!

[GialloHorror]

I love "Tourist Trap"

[DeadBunny69]

Carnival of Souls is a must see. Spooky and effective.

[ReviewCam]

Alice Sweet Alice! I agree. The others I haven't heard of. If I were to do a list I'd include Burnt Offerings, The Nanny (Bettle Davis) and definitely The Screaming Woman with Oliva De Havaland (sp).

And The Sentinal

[happytrf]

Wow, you're just naming off movies that I'm saving for October! LISA AND THE DEVIL is one I recently picked up for the best month of the year also. CARNIVAL OF SOULS is amazing and I just watched THE INNOCENTS, great stuff! Oh and I thought TOURIST TRAP was absolutely horrid, but that may just be me.

[sizophyz]

Thanks for the clips!

BTW

The woman in Black, a MUST see!

[melissa3289]

back then they really showed too much of the comming attraction after seeing Tourist Trap one I know what its about

[wanker391]

Do They,They,They ever return to possess the living? Hmmm? DO THEY?

[DaveGrean]

I read about Tourist Trap and it all sounded creepy as fuck, but this trailer is just hilarious...

[vegettoSSJ3ROCKSS]

Im gonna see The Other, The Innocents, Tourist Trap and Carnival Souls 

[Tralman1965]

Does anybody remember a film 60's or 70's about a statue. It was called It I think.

[sparklymom]

@Tralman1965 Sounds like Bucket of Blood (1959). Check IMDB.com for film links and images

[sparklymom]

@Tralman1965

Bucket of Blood (1959)? Check imdb for stills and links



[Tralman1965]

@Tralman1965 Thank you for your reply. No, it had a strange statue that you never really saw move but people kept dying around it. At the end it was dropped in the sea....I think. I was very young. It might have been a Night Gallery episode.

[ManiaMechanica]

those i've seen, still great job.. though i have to agree the carnival of souls and Bava in general isn't so underrated.

[royalnaz1]

ALICE SWEET ALICE IS BROOKE SHIELDS

[jackinla8]

"Carnival of Souls" is one of my all-time favorites.

What a chilling story, something you don't forget!

[jackinla8]

They're on my list -- THANKS!

[gspendlove]

Peter Wyngarde! My ears perked up when I heard that name! I said, "Klytus!"

[lordzaphodbeeb]

Great video. Ah, the memories of those weekend horror matinées. You did forget one of my favorite under-rated horror flicks of the '70s though. "Frogs" with Ray Milland. The music and tension were the foundations of that movie, scared the hell out of me when I saw it as a kid.

[nervouswreck75]

That's Ron Jeremy in the coffin!! :D

[oatstao]

Thanks for posting these clips! :D Love the two b&w's the best. They knew how to frame for maximum fright back then,yet the 70's films are great too, they don't fall into that stupid fast paced edit and too loud music that plagues horror films today. I would consider this stuff faithful theatre and the stuff today Porn.

[bluepanther1984]

Carnival of Souls is a classic.

[jazzamind]

How is Carnival of Souls underrated?

It is in the top 50 of best horror movies ever in IMDB,so

[genursus]

@jazzamind I did debate putting Carnival of Souls on this video. If I were to redo this list, I'd probably replace Carnival of Souls with The Haunting of Julia (which is creepy as well and more underrated than Carnival of Souls).

[KitanaiBaishunfu]

@jazzamind I think it's underrated because not a lot of people are wiling to actually psychologically invest in horror films anymore and people just don't like stuff like that now. (And I'm speaking of the younger generation)

[docileprimate]

I saw The Innocents a few years ago and remember thinking that the 2001 movie The Others was a remake of it. Either way they're both really good.

[Gorehound23]

Dude, you are my hero, Tourist Trap and Alice Sweet Alice are fucking gold!!!

[nejikath]

i know many movies you showed in the two videos.

[JigokuShoujosRevenge]

Carnival of Souls is such a creepy movie. The way it gives off the feeling of total entrapment as she's all alone going through something she doesn't understand. The only romance you get is some perv whose into her but not enough to help her. The innocents is based off The Turn of the Screw right? Not too intimidating a comercial, but it looks so tempting. Also try watching The Locals. Not an oldie but good. Anything with Vincent Price.

[Keichan2501]

When I was a kid the tourist trap scared the crap out of me.

[GothicRomanceFan]

Alice, Sweet Alice looks really creepy! I've gotta watch it now. Thank you for recommending these!

[venusboys3]

Good stuff!

I've heard of 'Alice Sweet Alice' but never seen it, same for 'Lisa and the Devil'... but now I'll have to watch them.

How about 'Don't Look Now' and 'The Reflecting Skin'?

[Jetsanna]

@venusboys3 I cannot recommend the first two...I mean, they're okay, but. On the other hand "Don't Look Now" and "The Reflecting Skin" are both exceptional. It's all a matter of taste, you know. I mean, I think "Last House on the Left" is a comedy.

[JigokuShoujosRevenge]

@Jetsanna  The Last House on the Left remake or original? The original is significantly better. . .

[ComptonAssMandiiee]

Is the person in the yellow coat with the mask in Alice Sweet Alice, is that her real face or is that a mask too? When she takes off the see through mask i mean.. Cuz its creepy as hell O.O It looks fake but i cant tell. It goes too fast.

[donovan1971]

Thanks for the recommendations I'll check these films out.

[horcruxkiller]

Interesting insight you've given to these old horror films. They sure look chilly and good. For the Innocents, I'm sure that the book and the movie are good, but the trailer is so hokey.

[genursus]

@horcruxkiller Yeah, the trailer for The Innocents is hokey, making it seem like a William Castle movie or something. It's far from it though. I should've put a clip up instead to show just how creepy The Innocents is. I was being a bit lazy there.

[horcruxkiller]

@genursus No prob. That's just how movie trailers were back in the 60's. I like how chilly these clips are. Good job. Thanks for sharing :)

[Faggotr0n]

Hell yes to Carnival Of Souls. I love that movie.

[kingrollo123]

in Lisa & The Devil... was that Kojak????



[genursus]

@kingrollo123 That is Kojak and it was this movie where he first used a lollipop as a prop.

[christinatatman]

the innocents is one of the most frightening pieces of literature i've ever read...the 1961 movie version, shown here, is as close to the novella as i have seen on film, but the themes are too controversial for it to ever be adequately represented on film.

[eroupopper]

Alice sweet Alice was the most frightening film I've ever seen in my life.

[MrJtorg]

The Innocents is one of the best horror flicks ever, and it's definitely underrated and overlooked. It's one of the only really effective ghost movies, up there with The Shining.

[MrHolynutsack69]

im glad that some people out there remember movies like these :)

[go4freedom56]

tourist trap is crep

[MrsPennywise96]

I think 'Alice sweet Alice' made 100 scariest moments... I'll have to check that, though.

All of them seemed pretty cool - I'll have to check them out.

[rtstein07]

Tourist Trap looks epic!

[Jim382]

@rtstein07 Tourist Trap is awesome. One of the first dvds I purchased (for $5 at a flea market...and worth every penny!) Another great effort of building up suspense with little gore, but awesome atmosphere.

[Losaru]

@rtstein07 And it's probably more frightening than Saw. Just an opinion.

[fatsachs]

In The Mouth Of Madness! Severely underrated john Carpenter film. Genuinely chilling and actually scary fantastic horror film!

[redskin2005]

Alice Sweet Alice --- > 1998 ?

[genursus]

@redskin2005 The copyright was probably renewed that year.

[bluepanther1984]

@redskin2005 it was made in 1978

[andywebb]

alice sweet alice is amazing i own this on dvd 

[toshatrollwarrior]

i watched your other vidoe on underrated horror movies. i haven't seen alot of them but would really like to. i have seen carnival of souls and loved it!

[PaulHartXYZ]

Ah yes... Carnival of Souls. That b&w masterpiece haunted my youth for years on late-night TV.

[giulene]

I see Telly Savalas

[FourFliesDVD]

Ah... Now THIS list I can get behind! I haven't seen Lisa and the Devil yet, but I've freaking been dying to! It's in my Queue but Netflix has it on their damn Wait list. Carnival of Souls is in my Top 10 all-time favorites. I adore it more than I can say. An artistic achievement of epic proportions. Alice is a bit too WtF?! for me but it is a good movie. I've heard a lot of good things about Innocents and Tourist Trap, so I'm going to make sure to see them before October.

[sephyfan]

all i have to say is alice sweet alice

truly underrated

i was so frightened of that movie as a child that i still haven't seen the whole movie!

[vkorchnoifan]

I thought "The Evil" was a pretty good horror film.

[gaIIery]

Yeah, "The Innocents" is one of the finest haunted house movies ever made. Maybe the best.

[NPERRICELLA]

like carnival of souls.

[BoRnToBeWiLDforGoD]

I watched "Carnival of Souls" with my mom years ago! Weird movie!!

[Skulldini]

Speaking of Alice,.. Sweet Alice, it happens that that movie is now posted, in its entirety, right here on You Tube. So you can now check that one out for yourselves free of charge.

[TheDarksEmpyrean]

I saw Alice Sweet Alice many years ago, I thought it was a horrible movie.

[Skulldini]

@TheDarksEmpyrean

[SUPERMEDIABROTHERS6]

2:00 ooo! Telly Savales! well were off to a good start at least!

[wolfseye14]

do they ever return to posses the living???? i have no fucking idea but its getting annoying -.-

[kickthecat65]

messiah of evil,witchcraft with lon chaney jr, the book of stone a little scene mexican movie,the devil's triangle a tv movie all made an impression on me.

[AuroraGuiniverePrice]

carnival of souls was more okay

obvious plot and the people weren't that scary. I actually found them to be more hilarious than anything else.... but okay

[Kimmell2010]

Alice sweet Alice is one of those movies that is creepy, intense, and haunting...it stays with you...Great movie.

[astroboymn]

Great taste in horror movies, buddy - thanks for posting all these!

[Pin33]

"Lisa and the Devil" is an eerie little film--and "Carnival of Souls", of course, is as frightening as they come. I'd also recommend "Premonition" (1972), directed by Alan Rudolph; "Ganja and Hess" (1973), directed by Bill Gunn (and starring Duane Jones from "Night of the Living Dead"); "Encounter With the Unknown" (1975), directed by Harry Thomason; "Nurse Sherri" (1978), directed by Al Adamson; and "The Changeling" (1980), directed by Peter Medak (starring George C. Scott).

[Axelander9999]

The scariest part about Alice Sweet Alice has to be the Cover

[ri4get]

And you saw this movie? Because is one of the best horror movies ever. And an inteligent one.

[Axelander9999]

@ri4get That was my younger cousin who couldn't watch the movie just because of the cover. But yeah, I watched the movie and it's really really good and scary

[philliptombs]

I use to love this movie when I was younger. I here there is a remake in the works.

[themalina92]

Remakes are never nearly as good as the originals. They are a total waste of time.

[GeorgeyBoy13]

Tourist Trap... I am totally watching that or something similar with my friend Sarah. She's a total crybaby so she'll have her head dug into me the whole time LOL.

[SpookyStregaAL]

Alice Sweet Alice... Brook Sheilds plays her sister

[lionhearted38]

Homicidal was good, so was Near Dark. Tourist Trap was really good.

[sjeffreydespain]

Alice Sweet Alice scared the crap out of me when I was a kid. It's still a great film and it still has this intense atmosphere to it. The cinematography was great and the timing of the cuts kept you on the edge of your seat.

[mrbipple12]

2:53 how the fuck is he walking

[mrbipple12]

2:23 funny

[mrbipple12]

i like the zombie movies of 2000 through 2009 because its not about zombies eating people its about zombies getting there moter fuckin heads blown off if u agree message me

[ProudAtheist90]

what about Maniac?

[DaNZiGzSon]

1.Tourist trap

2.alice sweet alice

3.carnival of souls

[matheusmarchetti]

Lisa and the Devil! One of the greatest horror movies of all time. Mario Bava´s masterpiece.

[967evil]

Alice Sweet Alice, and Tourist Trap FTW!

[HorrorANDMore]

Alice Sweet Alice is a very good, and Underrated film. I always found it quite Interesting. A few more Underrated Horror films are "Burnt Offerings", "Humongous", and "House by the Cemetery".

[IndoAtheist]

nothin' can beat the 70's show !!!

[ScrapGoldBass]

EVERYBOBY-you might like a horror movie (from the 70's) that i posted. Its called "God Told Me To"

[MushMedia]

alice sweet alice

[dalmain77]

The Innocents was a good one. Very spooky. The Other's took a page from this one. Wow, I remember Tourist Trap when I was a little boy. It freaked me out back then.

[VandalStork]

Oh MAN! "Alice Sweet Alice"! Great choice! And I'm sorry to disagree, rpcarnell...but both "Carnival of Souls" and "Lisa and the Devil" are still pretty rare. Bava's known by film buffs...but most Americans are so deep in a hell of CGI that we wouldn't know a genuinly scary movie if it walked up and bit us on the ass. Sad...but true.

[goback3spaces]

I don't go to CGI movies but I've seen scenes from them on YouTube. I agree that the whole effect is horrid. Unreal. Delivering no emotional impact. Do you foresee an anti-CGI backlash? I'm very interested in your response.

[McWolfcastle]

meh.. every new technique and style of making movies has been through its growing up phase. the critique,while valid,is a general one. the same things have been said when going from book to film (how could a film produce the same experience?),from silent to talkie(you wouldnt need to pay as much attention to set and style),and from black and white to color(the vivid color would cause the story to be second to the set) all im saying is it has to be given a chance to grow..

[sr71ablackbird]

@VandalStork that is true, about the CGI, that is. Not only has it been indoctrinated into movies, but also games, most of it has been pre-planned for every option conceivable, therefore lacks in imagination and creativity. That is the saddest part.

[MyDude1991]

@VandalStork why does alice have an old man's face?

[rpcarnell]

Carnival of Souls is not underrated, and neither is any of the Bava films, like Lisa and the Devil

[spiceuvlife]

OMG! I lOVED CARNIVAL OF SOULS!
